    Life has been A LOT lately, and I'm sharing it all with you

    - what was happening, the feelings, the lessons, the learnings, the tears, the downloads, the decisions, the action steps and how I go into the slow life that I am longing for.

    - Full recap & breakdown of the last 8 months

    - The most important skill in business, in private and in any kind of relationship

  • #13 ~ You Can Be A Goof & A Six Fig Entrepreneur

    A coachee recently said to me that she always thought that she can’t be her goofy, funny self as an entrepreneur… “I have to be serious to be seen as an entrepreneur and for the people to trust me”.

    And that my loves, is such a common belief!

    That belief leads to you not being yourself and you putting a mask on everytime you step into your business, which won’t bring you authority, it won’t bring you money, it won’t be fun and it will definitely not bring you longterm success…

    What if I told you that you can be *ANYTHING* that you want?

    All at the same time.

    This is what we’re diving into today, coming in hot with some real life examples from life, business & relationships 🌶️🔥

    KEY EPISODE INSIGHTS

    - Where your limitations come from & why they are there

    - How to break free from that thought pattern

    - Allowing yourself to be, do and have *everything* that you want

    - Real life examples from my life, business & relationships

    • #7 ~ Earn Online Without Being Part Of The "Ick"

      Earning a bunch of money, in the shortest time possible, with the least amount of effort… sounds familiar? Yes, it makes me vomit too 🤢

      The online business reputation became very spammy and ick in the last 2 years and I’m sick of the fact that so many people hold themselves back and don’t start their online journey because they believe that the only way to earn online

      is to be part of the “ick”,

      is to compromise their integrity and their values,

      is to do something that makes them feel salesy and “ick”

      is to squeeze themselves into a box they don’t even want to be in

      or to follow trends, get rich quick schemes and do something that they don’t want to do.

      I know that you’re here to build something that replaces your income in the long run and that is fun for you, something that feels GOOD and TRUE to you.

      You don’t want to feel ick, cringe or spammy when you’re sharing your business and what you’re doing.

      You want to feel good about it.

      You want to feel aligned with it.

      You want to feel confident about it.

      You want to feel that it’s YOU.

      And you want to earn money with it.

      Hell yes, I’ve got you - let’s dive in! 🙌🏻🤍

      KEY EPISODE INSIGHTS

      - An online business doesn’t have to be scammy, cringe or ick - and this is how.

      - The two most profitable online business models that are NOT “ick”.

      - Let’s talk about building a sustainable business that nurtures you for years and years to come, and *really* replaces your income - while it feels GOOD and TRUE to you.

      - Why do some business models feel scammy and “ick”, and how do you find the right business model for you, that doesn’t give you that ick?

    • #6 ~ Sometimes I'm A Private Dogsitter

      Getting paid for cuddling a dog? Yes, it's the reality - and it's possible for you too 😍

      In this episode, we dive into one of my other income streams besides my online business, dog sitting. Why sometimes I'm a private dog sitter, how it works and how you can get paid for cuddling dogs, cats and any other pets too and/or live for free all over the world while spending time with the cutest beings on this earth 🐕‍🦺 🐈

      You will learn more about two platforms that I'm using regularly, Petsitting24 and TrustedHousesitters.

      Petsitting24 is a Swiss platform for paid pet sits, while Trustedhousesitters is an incredible travel opportunity where you get to live at stunning places for free in exchange for taking care of peoples pets while they are on vacation.

      Important disclaimer: Please don't use this as an income stream just to generate money - animals are valuable souls as well and we should treat them with the same respect and love that we have for our other friends & family members too 🫶🏻 It's a BEAUTIFUL way to earn money, but that shouldn't be the reason for why you're doing it. It's about the love for animals, just taken to the next level 😍👌🏻

      - Discover two new opportunities for your freedom life
