It has been a month since I started my year off from the European Commission. I am dedicating this year to my inward journey 💚 In the first month, I managed to carve out time for my practices, such as yoga, breathwork, and other spiritual activities. I've been fully present with my kids and friends, enjoying their company. Taking time off has resulted in a sense of relaxation, and it's during these moments that ideas flow out of me 💃🏼 One of the steps I took is planning another women’s retreat, scheduled for July. The previous one I organized and facilitated left me in awe of the strength and power within us women. I yearn for more connection with dear sisters! Turning ideas into reality happens through living them. That's why Yasser Dehnavi and I are facilitating and coordinating several invite-only magical family retreats 🌟 It's truly a significant undertaking. The families that have participated so far have left the venues filled with joy, happiness, and love. A special aspect for me is co-facilitating these events with my kids. My greatest gift to them is my presence, and it's amazing to be able to offer that! So, there are 11 months left in this journey. It's a ride with an unknown outcome, but one that will lead me closer to my truth, my heart, and my soul.

Great that you set sails for new endeavors outside the "mother ship". That will show you so many different scenarios that will both enlighten and question you the bone. I aways encourage people to live their OWN life. Something which often not appreciated by fearful people that run institutions and therefore make them a prison of the fearful -lead and controlled by the even more fearful. Mind: if ever you come back from your journey things will have changed and especially for you and with you. I salute you! Travel well and maybe we smile at each other as your path might be close to my path. And even if not: enjoy every moment of it! I did similar/different in my own way; and I cannot imagine anymore a life without having taken this decision and sailed off to new shores and skies and waves and unknown seas.
