Today’s conversation with Oliver Manalese is human, open, and vulnerable. People tend to think that public figures have most of their life figured out and believe me when I say it is not how it looks. Olivier and I share real struggles coming from different perspectives.    This year started as the “year of the visionary” and it certainly is, we are now confronted with a reality that is stressing and confusing, which has pushed us all to a state of survival and is affecting our lives in many different aspects. We are all in a state of shock and still try to keep on with our lives but circumstances had drastically changed.  I hope this conversation helps you to realize you are not alone, we are all struggling together, and what is happening in the world is and will transform us all.    These are the main topics of these amazing conversation: ● Covid-19 has faced us with what we truly are, our core beliefs, and morals. ● The third eye of the world. ● Racism today. ● We all are part of one human family. ● Right now is less about fact and more about perception. ● We are at the edge of a mental health crisis. ● Being a parent in times of pandemic. ● Feeling stuck in a state of shock. ● Space and grace. ● How confused are we? ● It is ok to acknowledge how much you are feeling. ● How stress is affecting our hormonal balance (women’s and men’s) ● Toxic productivity. ● Our expectations should meet our circumstances. ● What did really meant to start the “year of the visionary”? ● The unseen is know being seeing. ● People are portals of possibility. ● The shortest path to alignment for purpose-driven lifestyle entrepreneurs.   Wishing this episode has helped you feel accompanied during these difficult times and to realize that every struggle holds the gift of opportunity.

I got a lot of questions about how to make your own full-body oil serums. First, you have to have a carrier oil for it, Saint Francis Herb Farm Golden Jojoba Oil is my recommendation since it is neutral for every skin type. I love citrus, wild Orange, grapefruit or tangerine, I add a couple of drops into a handful of Jojoba oil and I massage it through my body after having a shower.
