Grieving over something that never physically existed is one of the hardest forms of grief. I was invited by Laura Gallis to talk about this type of grief.

Grief is so much more than about a person. It can also be an unfulfilled wish, like the dream to become a mother one day. 🌟 How do you mourn something you never had?

Hear my personal experience and how I found meaning in supporting other women on their journey. 🌈

If someone wants to have a conversation with you that you are not ready to have... These thoughts are going through your mind:

- is it ok to say 'no, I don't want this right now'?

- how to express how I feel?

- should I go for it because I care about the other person?

This episode gives you guidance on this difficult topic! I delve into the complex conversation of differentiating selfcare vs selfish. I share my own stories and lessons, while also inviting you to reflect on your own experiences as you listen.

Dreading the holidays? Here are 7 ways to CREATE happier holidays for all of you who are not looking forward to the holidays.

This time of year can be triggering for those feeling childless, who are not happy being single, have 'difficult' families or any other way that makes you feel like you are not where you want to be in your life. I was like you. Christmas used to mark my (felt) failures in life: still single, still unhappy in a relationship, still no motherhood in sight, still a difficult family situation.

But no more! I took control over my own happiness and here are 7 things that I do that help me navigate Christmas as a happy single, childfree, and powerful woman!

We all know how easily we can get distracted by other things that take our attention, be it business or personal. Focusing is just hard! For those times: the peer pressure of coworking helps a lot.

Daniek went into this retreat with the desire to kickstart a new phase in her business journey. And to focus more on what she wanted to get DONE.

Are you looking for focus and togetherness? Visit my website for upcoming retreat details; the door to more energy and focus awaits!

Welcome to another episode of Am I A Mother?! In this raw and honest conversation, I delve into the complex emotions of jealousy, doubt, and fear that often arise in our lives. I share my own personal stories and lessons, while also inviting you to reflect on your own experiences. Join me in exploring motherhood, choices, and finding your own path to self-empowerment.

@rise.with.regine invited me for an amazing talk on Instagram Live!

Listen to our lovely conversation about alternative motherhood, how to deal with triggering questions and so much more!

Thank you so much Regine!

‘I got so much done these 3 days, it feels as if I was here for a week’.

Daniek Nellissen and I just wrapped up the co-working and camping retreat and my heart is beating so fast! ❤️

Honestly, doing an after talk live is a bit scary because what if it doesn’t go well?😵‍💫

But you know me, I trust myself and I like searching for these edges 😍

As it was live and unprepared you see a genuine talk and connection on what worked well in this retreat.

Let me summarize for you. Daniek said:

“You’re a great host.”

“I was completely taken care of without being mothered.”

“ I got much more done than I get done at home. I was so focused and it helped me that I didn’t have to think of food and such.”

“We had the best mix of work and fun. It’s shows me it doesn’t have to be only work.”

“I enjoyed my space to do my own things.”

“I am not a camping person but I had a wonderful sleep, I felt like being in a safe little bunker with a comfy bed.”

In one sentence she said: “if you’re doubting, that means you’re leaning towards a yes. Do it.”

Much love,

Anne ☀️

Do you believe it’s possible for you to turn your passion into your business?

If I’m honest… for the longest time I thought it were the lucky few who were able to do it.

But now I let go of the urge to:

have it all right now and instead I allow myself to become better with time,

succeed the first time and insteadI allow myself to have no-one-joining-my-sh*t,

know it all and instead I allow myself to learn,

take big risks and make large jumps and instead I allow myself to take small steps.

It’s all coming towards me. I am building the business and the life of my dreams.

On my terms.

How? Check the live. It all starts with listening to the pull.

Do you dare to listen?

Much love,

Anne ☀️

How do you measure self love?

How do you invest in getting more self love?

For me it was a dark hole for years.

Even the question: ‘is my self love on point?’ had me clueless.

Looking back and looking at the relationships I’ve had

But in the moment…. I was too scared to look at my own self love. Because I knew it required choices. Like leaving the relationship I was in.

Fast forward to now. My self love rose to a point that I invest in myself, my growth, my happiness, support and joy easily. Abundantly.

I pay for all of it with a smile on my face.

Because I know I’m worth it.

How do you look at self love? Is it on point? If not, are you willing to take a first step today?

Much love,

Anne ☀️
