Today's co-host is my daughter Stella
Connecting with your kids can be super challenging at times when you are super busy. I get it.
Instilling discipline into your child's day-to-day routine and even make it fun, can be even more challenging. And yet- discipline is important for success in life.
Not just for our kids - for us too.
Many successful people cite discipline as their main key ingredient for success.
Discipline gets a bad rap but actually - we can really truly free our mind and boost productivity by creating habits and orderliness that in turn create a free mind and strong foundation for success.
And don't get me wrong.. I am not a master at this AT ALL.
But it turns out.. my 8-year old daughter Stella is.
So we created a 30-Day Challenge that did not just show her how fun commitment and discipline can be, it brought us closer together by doing it together. Highly recommend to any mum looking for a fun way to engage and connect with their children, it was SO much fun. And - we both felt an amazing sense of achievement. This little exercise was GOLD in SO many ways.
PS.

What if the key to being a better mom isn't working harder,but taking care of yourself first?
Today, meet: Working mom Moriah from Mighty Mama Coaching in Canada, who works in personal training and health coaching specificallyfor moms. She went from feeling trapped at a desk to helping moms discover that their health isn't selfish, it's the foundation their whole family needs.
Moriah's journey is beautifully messy and real. She studiedgraphic design, felt like she was in prison sitting at a desk all day, and had the courage to completely pivot. Through life in England, Costa Rica, and raising a toddler, she discovered her true calling: reminding moms that their health is the heartbeat of their whole family.
Key Learnings
Your Health = Your Family's Foundation
She says: "Your health isn't just your own. It's the heartbeat of your whole family." When moms prioritize their health, it creates a ripple effect that benefits everyone. You're not being selfish, you're modeling healthy habits and showing up as your best self.
Make Fitness Fun, Not a Chore
Forget intimidating gym culture. When you enjoy something,you'll actually stick with it. Moriah brings joy and playfulness to fitness because sustainable change happens when it feels good.
Start Small, Build Momentum
Don't try to transform overnight. Even one or two workoutsper week is better than nothing. Small consistent actions build the momentum that creates lasting change.
Strength Training Is Non-Negotiable
Especially after having kids. Think about being able tocatch yourself if you slip on ice at 70, or getting up from the floor without help. It's about staying strong and independent as you age.
You Don't Need a Gym
You can build strength at home with bodyweight exercises orbasic weights. Your living room works just as well as any fancy gym.
Community Changes Everything
We weren't meant to do this alone. Having people whounderstand your journey makes all the difference, whether it's fitness, career changes, or motherhood.
Stop the Comparison Game (and important one for all of us)
Stop measuring yourself against people who are 20 stepsahead. The right people will be drawn to YOUR unique approach, not the shiny object everyone else is chasing.
Trust Your Body and Heart
If something doesn't feel aligned, your career, workout routine, or life choices, then trust that feeling. It's easier to make a change now than stay uncomfortable and miserable forever.

Heute gibt es das Intro-Preneur Special mit Nadine Krischke, Teil 1
Nadine Krischke begleitet introvertierte Frauen beim Aufbau ihres Herzensbusiness. Ihr Podcast: Intro-Preneur
Worüber sprechen wir?
Warum introvertierte Frauen anders gründen und wie der Weg raus aus dem Hamsterrad gelingt. Nadine Krischke teilt ihre Transformation von der Marketingleiterin zum authentischen Business-Coaching.
Der Ausgangspunkt liegt bei dir selbst
Was willst du? Nicht dein Umfeld, nicht Instagram-Gurus. Deine Werte, deine Vision, deine Aufgabe.
Deine Vielseitigkeit ist deine Stärke
Multi-passionate? Multi-hyphenate? Das ist kein Fehler, den du reparieren musst. Das ist dein Superpower. (yippee, ich freu mich gleich mit ;-)
Ängste sind normal, Lähmung nicht.
Zweifel und Unsicherheit gehören dazu. Immer. Problematisch wird's, wenn sie dich komplett blockieren.
Frauen brauchen andere Ansätze als "Skalier schnell und nimm Tempo auf". Wir funktionieren über Sinn, Erfüllung und Verbindung – nicht primär über Geld.
Deine Prioritäten haben sich verschoben? Völlig okay. Du musst nicht von 0 auf 100 durchstarten wie mit 25. Finde dein Modell für deine Lebenssituation.
Hochsensibilität und Feinfühligkeit? Du brauchst dir keine dicke Haut zulegen. Diese Eigenschaften sind in einer KI-überschwemmten Welt gefragter denn je.
Content-Überschwemmung macht es schwerer, gehört zu werden. Aber: Menschlichkeit wird dadurch noch wertvoller. Echtsein, Verbindung, Vertrauen – das kann keine KI ersetzen.
Die Essenz und Key Takeaways:
Die drei größten Hürden für Frauen im Business-Coaching sind männliche Strategien
Als Mama neu durchstarten
Berufliche Neuorientierung für Frauen und Mütter
Deine stillen Stärken sind Business-Assets
KI verändert alles
Klingt spannend? Hör rein!
PS. heute hatte ich leider kleine Microschwierigkeiten, beim nächsten Mal wieder besser!

Program enrolment this week for 5 days
Join the Priority List now for the 6-Week-Co-Creative Website
This week sharing with you our newest program and explain the thing about websites versus social media: you're building a house on rented land when you rely solely on Instagram and TikTok, where algorithms can decide your visibility and less than 2% of your followers actually see your posts.
Meanwhile, your website (if built well) can be your sales person 24/7 and your online HQ where visitors spend focused minutes (not distracted seconds) building trust with you before they buy. The magic isn't in creating the perfect website from day one - it's in building something flexible that grows with your inevitable pivots and changes, because every entrepreneur discovers that businesses evolve through trial and error, not perfection.
So this radically different program gives you that independence and ownership, letting you update and adapt without bleeding money to developers every time you need to tweak your positioning or add a new offer, which will happen faster than you think.
If you are ready to build now - make sure to join the list so you don't miss the launch this week, enrolment is open for 5 days.

This is a conversation about the divine feminine rising and our mother energy
and easily one of the most beautiful conversations I recently had when I was lucky enough to talk with Chris Maddox, founder of the Wild Woman Project, and honestly, I'm still getting goosebumps, when I listened to it now.
Chris never planned to create this global movement. She wasjust this young actress in New York City doing a project called "The Vagina Monologues" when she stumbled into her first women's circle.
The amazing part is, it only started with 'One vision of golden circles of light' scattered across the world later, and she's now trained hundreds of women in 26 countries to lead their own circles.
We talked about:
The power of speaking your truth out loud with other women (I can tell you - it's amazing, I just did it with total strangers and have been to a women's truth gathering circle myself recently here in Mallorca and Chris put into words exactly what I experienced) When you sit in that circle and share your deepest fears with women that you don't know, essentially, there's something so magical in this whole experience.
It looks so simple from the outside, but you walk away from this experience so strengthened inside. It has really touched me like to my core. Chris says it perfectly: when you speak from your heart in circle and it's witnessed, "it fortifies it in a way that's different than your own personal practice." Those passing pieces of guidance that come through? They become real, tangible, life changing.
We talk about her beautiful path from actress to women's circle leader.
If you're one of those women, you know, like the seekers, where you're standing at the edge of becoming and sometimes you just can't really grasp the thing just yet. Like you know that there's something there, that something is calling you, but you're not quite there yet... Chris has the most beautiful advice.
She talks about cultivating that conscious relationship between your mind and your inner guidance system. "Things take the time they take," she says, quoting Mary Oliver. But while you're being patient with the process, gather the clues. Notice what lights you up, what moves you, what you keep being drawn to.

What I've been doing every morning..
I wake up and before I even get out of bed, I meditate for 10-15 minutes while my daughter is asleep. I put on my headphones and use a Joe Dispenza meditation. Then after I drop her at school, I come home, make breakfast and coffee, and I sit down for just 10 minutes to journal (I really do! before I start anything else)
Here is something I started doing in August
It's a little thing I borrowed from Brian Tracey.
Every single morning, I write down my 10 most important goals like they've already happened. I write them in present tense, with so much gratitude, as if I'm already living them. And I don't look at what I wrote the day before. That's the trick.. then the magic happens.
Have a listen, this exercise helped me not just realize what is most important to me currently, it also makes me feel grateful and more confident and supported every morning.
Highly recommend!!

Do you know that feeling when you've outgrown your role, even when everyone else thinks you should be satisfied? When you sense there's something bigger calling you, but you can't quite put your finger on what it is?
That's exactly where my guest Olivia found herself - leading international expansions, closing 175 million euro deals, managing teams across continents. From the outside, it looked like the perfect corporate success story. But inside She knew she was meant for something more.
In this episode:
How becoming a mom can actually sharpen your focus on what truly matters - no more time for BS, as Olivia puts it
Why moving countries with your family is a completely different game than moving as a single person (and the unexpected challenges nobody prepares you for)
The power of looking at struggles as growth opportunities rather than roadblocks
How to build meaningful relationships in your business - because success really comes down to the quality of connections in your life
Why competition between women can actually be our greatest catalyst for growth (if we shift how we think about it)
The journey from serving large corporations to finding your purpose working with women entrepreneurs - and why that pivot changed everything

You know that feeling when you're sitting in your comfortable life, but deep down you know there's something more calling you?
That restless energy that whispers "this isn't it" even when everything looks perfect on paper? That's exactly what happened to my guest Ioana Wilkinson. She had the house, the stable teaching job, the "should be happy" life - and yet something inside her was screaming for freedom, for travel, for a completely different way of living.
Have you done the 90-Second Truth Quiz to Check in with Your Soul?
In this episode, we talk about Ioana's beautiful journey from small-town Texas to Barcelona, Spain - how she left everything behind to chase her dreams, and how becoming a mom during COVID completely shifted her path into freelance writing and location independence, building a career in your suitcase.
We chat about the identity crisis that can come with motherhood, the fear of losing your freedom, and how spirituality became the foundation for building a business and life that actually works.
This conversation goes places most career podcasts won't -we're talking about prayer as business strategy, about hearing God's voice in major decisions, and about that moment when you realize you're never actually alone.
Why "I will make a way for you" became Ioana's anchor through the scariest decisions
How to use intuition and prayer as actual business strategy (seriously)
The difference between fear marketing and desire marketing - and why it matters for your soul
Why surrendering control actually gives you more power in business and life
How to trust that inner voice when it's telling you to make a major life change - even when it seems crazy to everyoneelse
How Ioana replaced her teaching income within months through freelance writing - starting with zero experience
The power of win probability and why responding to existing opportunities beats cold pitching every time
How to build a business that travels with you

If you're listening to this as a working mother, maybe feeling lost in a job that doesn't fulfill you, or maybe freelancing but feeling like you're constantly on a hamster wheel, I want you to know that there's another way.
You can build systems that protect you. You can create products from your expertise. You can set up streams of income that don't require you to trade every hour for a dollar. It's not easy, and it's not instant, but it's absolutely possible.
Key Takeaways:
Scarcity kills sustainability: You cannot build a lasting intuitive business based on fear and short-term thinking
Contracts are your safety net: Short-term projects are fine for short-term money, but long-term success requires protective agreements
Systems trump scrambling: The All-In system emerged from crisis but became the foundation of consistent client acquisition
Professional relationships require mutual respect: If you give notice, they should too
Passive income is possible: Digital products can create freedom while you focus on family
Teams amplify your impact: You don't have to do everything yourself – collaboration accelerates success
Risk-taking is essential: The biggest breakthroughs come from the biggest leaps
Mindset creates possibilities: Believing in endless possibilities isn't naive – it's necessary for growth
