For more than eight years I had vague complaints of fatigue. Complaints that preceded my burnout and never went quite away afterwards. From time to time I went to see a doctor and they would check my blood and other stats. Every single time they concluded that I was totally fine. Except I didn’t feel it. Until …

I’m a sensitive soul. But it took me until my late twenties to discover I’m a highly sensitive person. I used to feel weak because I had to say “no” to certain things. I was often drained and exhausted and I felt different. When I was on vacation or on a trip there would be those key moments where I said …

I guess that depends on who you ask—and at which stage in their personal development ;) If you had asked me twenty years ago—I would have told you that being a highly sensitive person (HSP) is awful.

Last week one of the participants in my Carriers of Light Mastermind asked why she felt resistance to this new phase in her journey.

Living in the present—and being fully in the moment—is one of the hardest things for humans. Or I should say for most adults. Children seem to excel at being in this moment. What often takes us away from the now is either worry about something that might happen, or revisiting a past event. Last week an intera…

We often forget—or perhaps ignore—the fact that we are tied to the seasons. Our body is connected to the rhythm of this planet. The more we move in sync with our natural rhythm, the more we will reap the benefits from a balanced body. In winter, nature slows down. Everything is happening beneath the surface. …

Winter is a time of year where we naturally have less energy because there is less sunlight. You might know this. But do you act accordingly? I had to remind myself this week, as I was working on the final edits of my book Radiant: How to Have All the Energy You Need to Live a Live You Love It's my experience …

Never in my life had I pictured my career the way it actually happened. If you would’ve told me the story beforehand, I probably would’ve thought it was both unbelievable—and unenjoyable. Life had a few surprises in store for me, most I didn’t see coming. Quite a few were only enjoyable with hindsight—and …
