I used to be a personal growth junkie—always striving, always improving, always working on becoming the best version of myself.
And I’m SO grateful I no longer am.
If you’d have told me years ago that my constant ‘working’ on myself would suddenly disappear and this would make me HAPPY, I might have slapped you in the face. (At least in my mind. ;-))
Back then, I always had some type of vision or goal I was working towards:
👉 Finding ways to attract clients more easily.
👉 Acting like the best next version of myself now.
👉 Overcoming deep-rooted patterns, obstacles, and fears.
👉 Allowing more ease and flow.
👉 Increasing my self-love.
You name it, I worked on it.
Mindset work, energy work, healings, journaling… It never stopped.
And: I LOVED it!
It brought me a lot.
I shed layers of conditioning and freed myself from inner stuff that was in my way.
I created a business and life filled with the freedom I craved.
And yet… it didn’t bring me ALL the freedom I longed for.
The freedom that has nothing to do with what you do or how hard you work, but the freedom that makes you feel fully at peace and at home in the world and yourself.
THAT freedom was still lacking.
One day, I wrote in my journal: ‘What’s my next best step?’ The answer came through instantly:
‘Shift into higher consciousness.’
It felt immediately true. But I wasn’t sure how to do this or what exactly it meant.
Then, awareness revealed itself.
I saw what had been true all along:
All that working on myself was the direct result of living from the mind, a state of being (or rather, DOING) that makes you believe something’s always missing.
Sound familiar?
Maybe you’ve spent years doing the same—believing you’re one breakthrough away from real freedom.
The mind tells you:
💭 You need to improve yourself to be worthy of what you want.
💭 You need to work to get what you desire.
💭 If you don’t, who will?!
The mind believes you have to earn or work for everything—including freedom and ease.
None of that is true.
When you shift into a state of awareness—your natural state—you see that you are Life itself, effortlessly unfolding.
You can relax, BE, and let things happen naturally.
At first, this seems strange.
Leave your thoughts alone?
No need to work on your mindset or energy?
NO effort involved in getting anything done in your business?!
That lingering doubt is the only thing keeping you stuck.
The moment you stop chasing freedom, it’s already here.
Instead of trying to “fix” a problem, you’ll notice it dissolves naturally as you stay present in awareness.
Instead of struggling to create, you’ll find actions arising effortlessly.
What’s left is the freedom I always ached for but never fully found.
TRUE freedom.
The kind that has NOTHING to do with what you do or how full or empty your schedule is.
As a result of this shift, all ‘need’ to improve myself or to reach for what’s next has fallen away.
And I don’t miss it. AT ALL.
On the contrary, I’m in awe of the space that opened within.
Of how amazing it feels to stop always DOING and simply BE, letting actions naturally arise from within.
Life is simpler.
Freer.
Fresher and more alive than I’ve ever experienced. And it keeps expanding as every piece of conditioning automatically falls away.
My clients often feel the same relief once they experience this shift.
One client shared:
“For the first time in years, I feel like I can breathe. I’m no longer trying so hard—I’m just being.”
Another told me:
“Life feels so much lighter now!”
This shift isn’t about giving up on growth—it’s about discovering a completely different way to live and thrive.
There’s no strategy, plan, work, or even knowledge needed to shift into this freedom you already are.
Your inner stillness is enough. (It’s always there, even when you’re busy.)
I can guide you to that place.
You too can feel fully at peace and at home in the world and yourself.
If you stopped reaching for the next thing—who would you be then?
Imagine waking up and knowing there is nothing to fix. Nothing missing. Nothing to reach.
Only the effortless unfolding of what already is.
If you’re ready to feel that freedom, I’d love to guide you.
Let’s explore what this freedom can look like for you.
