In this episode, I open my heart and share something very personal with you—something I believe many of us quietly carry. Every week, I visit my 90-year-old father in his elderly home. And every time, despite all the healing work I've done, I still come back with this heavy feeling: I'm not good enough. I tell myself in advance to stay calm, to let him be who he is, but his words and behavior still reach that little girl inside of me who just wanted to be seen, acknowledged, and appreciated.Do you have someone in your life who still has the power to make you doubt your worth? Someone who can awaken old wounds, no matter how far you've come?This episode is not about blame. It's about compassion. It's about being honest with ourselves and recognizing that healing isn't linear. That old triggers can resurface—and that's okay. What matters is how we respond, how we hold ourselves in love, and how we keep walking forward.You'll hear:Why even deep inner work can't always stop old wounds from risingHow I speak to the little girl in me who still wants to be seenA powerful reminder that your worth is not defined by someone else's inability to see you.What helps me come back to peace after a triggering visitWhy we're never truly alone in thisIf you've ever felt like your light dims around a certain person, this episode is for you. My hope is that you'll feel understood, less alone, and empowered to meet your emotions with grace and tenderness.BOOKS:

Have you ever felt like everything in your life is falling apart? Like no matter what you do, nothing changes—only more pain, more struggle, more loneliness? In this episode, I speak straight from my heart. I share a deeply honest conversation I had with a friend who told me she didn't want to live anymore. Her words mirrored my own feelings from the past, and I know many of you have felt the same way too.But there is a way through. A way to coach yourself gently when you feel broken, overwhelmed, or completely lost. I'll guide you through the steps I've learned to take when I find myself in a dark place. These aren't perfect formulas, but real, raw practices that have helped me shift from despair to hope.In this episode, you'll learn:How to support yourself in moments of emotional crisisWhat to ask your inner child when you feel like you're not enoughHow to stop stacking the pain from your past and start noticing the beauty around youWhy presence is more powerful than reliving old storiesAnd how to trust that this painful moment will not last foreverThis conversation is for anyone who's ever felt like giving up. I hope it reminds you that you are not alone, and that there is light, even when you can't see it yet.BOOKS:

In this episode, I share with you one of the most powerful experiences of my life — a swim trek on a small Croatian island that challenged me far beyond what I thought I could handle.For six hours, I swam in the cold sea, facing currents, self-doubt, and discomfort. I didn't do it for a qualification or a medal. I did it to meet myself in the cold, in the fear, and in the places where I usually want to give up.This episode is not just about swimming. It's about expanding your comfort zone. It's about finding strength through baby steps, learning how to coach yourself through hard moments, and realizing that the voice inside you saying, “You can do it,” is more powerful than you know.Whether you're facing something overwhelming right now, or simply need a reminder that you're capable of more than you believe, I hope this story encourages you to keep going. One step. One stroke. One breath at a time.And if you'd like support on your own journey of growth and resilience, I'm here. I'd love to walk (or swim) alongside you.BOOKS:

There was a time when I couldn't stand unfairness. If something felt wrong, I would fight. I would argue. I would push until I felt heard. I was the uncomfortable one in the room—the one who couldn't let go until justice was served.But it came at a cost. My peace. My joy. My relationships. In this deeply honest episode, I open up about:My emotional battles with injusticeHow my childhood shaped the way I reactThe anger that used to rule meAnd the gentle inner work that led me back to love and peaceI've learned that life isn't always fair. But how I respond—that's something I get to choose. And today, I choose peace over being right. I choose softness. I choose love.If you've ever struggled with strong emotions, felt misunderstood, or carried the weight of needing to make things right—this episode is for you. It's a gentle reminder that you are not alone, and you are always capable of changing the way you show up in your life.BOOKS:

Have you been giving so much that you've forgotten how to receive?Do you feel what others need almost instantly, but when it comes to your own needs… you pause, hesitate, or even ignore them?You're not alone. Maybe you've been the strong one. The caretaker. The one who listens deeply and holds space for everyone else. But who holds space for you? If you've ever felt tired but kept saying yes… If you've ever picked up the phone when you wanted to rest… If you've ever put yourself last because it felt too hard to say no… I see you. Truly, I do.But here's the truth you might need to hear today:You are allowed to set boundaries. You are allowed to take a break. You are allowed to say, “I come first.” This doesn't make you selfish—it makes you whole.And yes, I know it's not always easy. Especially when it comes to family. You might be afraid someone will be hurt, or think you don't care. But setting boundaries isn't about shutting people out—it's about letting your truth in.And if you ever need someone to walk beside you as you learn to say “no” with love and “yes” to yourself, I'd be honored to be that guide. You don't have to do it alone.BOOKS:

Do you celebrate your wins? Do you really let them in — the small ones, the quiet ones, the ones nobody else sees? Or are you like me… always rushing forward, always raising the bar, never stopping to feel truly proud of yourself? Last week, I caught myself feeling like a failure again.Even though I've been doing my best, even though I've touched lives, even though I've shown up — I still told myself, “You're not doing enough.” And it hit me.I had created my own misery. My own impossible standards.I had forgotten to celebrate myself.To see what I had done. To feel the quiet beauty of progress.Can you relate? In this episode, I share my story… and invite you to reflect on your own. I'll guide you through a few powerful steps to help you feel successful now — not someday. Not when you've done more. Now.We'll talk about how to: – Recognize the small wins that matter – Let compliments land in your heart – Shift your success rules to something more loving – Celebrate yourself — and feel proud, without guiltAnd if you're a parent, a partner, or a friend… your healing will ripple.When you start feeling good about yourself, you give others permission to do the same. You deserve to feel proud. You deserve to celebrate. And you're not alone on this journey.BOOKS:

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about space—not the kind between stars, but the space in our homes, in our hearts, and in our minds. After my dear mum passed away, something stirred deep inside me. I felt an urge to declutter—not just the rooms in my house, but the layers of who I used to be. So I started with my wardrobe. It's incredible how much a closet can carry. Skirts I hadn't worn in decades. Blouses from a time when I tried to be perfect for everyone. Pieces that cost too much to throw away… but were costing me peace by staying.Then I asked myself a question I now want to ask you too:Do I really want to keep parts of an identity I've already outgrown?Because the truth is—I've changed. I'm not the stressed-out mum juggling two little boys. I'm not the corporate woman trying to be liked by everyone. I'm someone new. Softer. Wiser. Freer. And I have a feeling you are too.Letting go became a sacred act. That was just the beginning.I walked through my kitchen and asked: “Do I still want to eat from these plates that carry years of old energy?”I opened drawers, sorted through papers and notebooks from seminars I had forgotten. I cleaned the garden pond and cleared the overgrown plants—suddenly, there was room for new life to emerge. Frogs, toads, peace.And all throughout, something in me softened.I felt the joy of becoming again.Of remembering that I am allowed to change.That I don't have to carry everything I once was into the life I'm living now.If you're feeling stuck, unsure, or simply longing for a shift, maybe this is your moment too.BOOKS:

I never thought I could truly be at peace with my family. The pain, the misunderstandings, the feeling of being unseen—it all ran too deep. Maybe you know what I mean. Maybe you've felt the sting of being hurt by a sibling, a parent, or someone close to you.But what if healing was possible? What if you could break the cycle and finally free yourself from the weight of family wounds?In this episode, I share my raw and personal journey with my brother. For years, we barely spoke. When we did, it triggered emotions I didn't want to feel—resentment, frustration, sadness. And when our parents' health declined and life forced us to communicate, I realized something: if I didn't change the way I handled this, I would carry this pain forever. So, I made a decision. I chose peace over resentment. Love over blame. Healing over hurt.And it wasn't easy. It still isn't. But I discovered powerful tools that are helping me shift my perspective, let go of anger, and truly move forward. And if I can do it, you can too.In this episode, I talk about:The mindset shift that changed everything for meHow Ho'oponopono, a Hawaiian prayer, is helping me healWhy family wounds run so deep and how to start breaking freeThe three steps I use to stay calm and not let negative emotions take overIf you've ever struggled with family relationships, I encourage you to listen. This might be the message you need to hear today.BOOKS:

Have you ever felt unseen, unheard, or just not enough—even when everything in your life should feel okay?I know this feeling all too well. And if you do too, I want you to know—you are not alone. Most of us grew up with unmet emotional needs, not because our parents didn't love us, but because they never learned how to meet their own. And so, the cycle continues… until we decide to break it.Today, I want to talk about the four core needs that shape your emotional well-being:The need to feel lovedThe need to feel connectedThe need to feel significantThe need to feel safeWhen these needs aren't met—whether in childhood or now—it can leave us feeling empty, anxious, and lost. But here's the truth: it's never too late to heal. You don't have to wait for someone else to give you what you need. You can start today by learning to nurture yourself.In this episode, I share my own journey of realizing why I felt so emotionally unfulfilled, despite having a “normal” childhood. I also give you a simple yet powerful self-check exercise that you can use anytime you feel off balance.If you're tired of feeling stuck, unseen, or unworthy—this episode is for you. It's time to step into your power and give yourself the love and significance you deserve. You are already enough. You are already worthy.PS.

I watched my father sit by my mother's side for weeks, holding her hand, whispering words of encouragement, trying to keep her here just a little longer. But she was in too much pain. And when she left, something inside him broke. His health began to fade, as if he no longer had a reason to fight. And I realized—without health, we are lost. No matter how much money we have, how many people love us, or how many dreams we chase, without our health, life becomes a struggle.How much attention do you give to your health?Have you made it your number one priority?I hadn't. I was busy. Focused on my work, my goals, my family. Like so many of us. But watching my parents suffer made me see things differently. Health is not a luxury. It's the foundation of everything.That's why in my latest podcast episode, I'm diving deep into this truth. Not to scare you, but to remind you that it's never too late to start.Move your body, even just a little.Nourish yourself with real food.Listen to your emotions and take them seriously.These small steps make all the difference. And you don't have to do it alone. If you need support, I'm here.BOOKS:

Have you ever been triggered by someone you deeply love? I just was. And it caught me off guard. My 19-year-old son asked to use my car to go have lunch with his friends. A simple request, yet I felt a wave of resentment. Why? Because his choice went against my values—exercise, financial mindfulness, and fresh air. I wanted him to see things my way.And then, I had a realization: I was reacting just like my parents did when I was young. That thought stopped me in my tracks.In this episode, I talk about why we get triggered, what these moments reveal about us, and how we can shift our perspective. I share four powerful steps to move from frustration to understanding—because triggers happen in all relationships, but they don't have to control us.BOOKS:

I want to take you on a journey—one that led me from being a fact-obsessed journalist to someone who believes in the unseen.For years, I relied only on logic, hard facts, and scientific proof. But deep inside, something felt off. I was hiding parts of myself, afraid to explore what couldn't be measured. Until I couldn't ignore it anymore.Slowly, I started opening up, embracing my intuition, and trusting that there is more beyond the physical world. And guess what? It changed everything.Recently, I attended a Progressive Retreat with Dr. Joe Dispenza, meditating alongside 8,000 people. The experience was beyond words. Dr. Joe's research proves that our thoughts and emotions shape our reality—and even our health. This isn't just "woo-woo" anymore. Science backs it up.In this episode, I share:How I overcame my fear of judgment and embraced spiritualityWhy meditation is a game-changer (even if you start with 5 minutes a day)The five simple steps that can transform your lifeIf you've ever doubted the power of your thoughts or felt stuck in negativity, this episode is for you. You are the creator of your life, and I'm here to guide you.BOOKS:

Do you ever feel like there's a voice in your head that never takes a break? I call mine Tom. Tom is my inner critic—a relentless little worker who never sleeps, never takes a vacation, and seems to have a lot to say about everything I do. For the longest time, Tom was like a shadow, following me from morning to night, pointing out where I wasn't “good enough” and comparing me to others. Sound familiar? But here's the thing: Tom means well. He thinks he's protecting me from failure or disappointment, but what he's really doing is holding me back. So, I decided to introduce him to someone new: Anna—my positive, uplifting inner voice. Anna steps in when Tom needs a break (yes, critics deserve vacations too!) and helps me rewrite the story in my head. Imagine waking up, hearing Tom's usual criticisms, and saying: “Thanks, Tom, but Anna's taking over today. She says I am good enough, and today is full of fresh opportunities.” Sounds empowering, right? It's a simple yet life-changing practice I want to share with you. In this new podcast episode, I walk you through how to: Recognize and name your inner critic Shift the dialogue to a positive voice Transform self-doubt into confidence BOOKS:

It took me over four decades to feel true gratitude for my parents, but just days ago, my 21-year-old son expressed his gratitude to me. It was a moment I'll never forget. On my birthday, my elder son shared something deeply emotional: he felt I've always preferred his younger brother. Instantly, I was reminded of my own childhood, where I, too, felt my parents favored my sibling. Despite my efforts to avoid repeating this pattern, I realized I had unintentionally done the same. I apologized immediately, but I knew words weren't enough. I needed to show my love and admiration through my actions. Later, I sent him a heartfelt message, apologizing again and promising to do better. His reply came unexpectedly: he respects me, feels gratitude for me, and thanked me for being his mom. That message was a profound reminder—it's never too late to heal, grow, and nurture relationships. Even in our imperfections, love can shine through. If you've ever felt unseen or unloved—or unintentionally made someone feel that way—this episode will resonate with you. Relationships can be complicated, but with honesty and care, they can also be transformed. It's never too late to strengthen the bonds that matter most. BOOKS:

Have you ever felt triggered by someone who just has to be right all the time? That's exactly what happened to me last week with my father. Picture this: We were packing his clothes for his move to the elderly home, and he looked at me and said, “I know what I'm doing, and I know better than you.” That one sentence stirred up so many emotions—anger, sadness, and that familiar feeling of not being seen or understood. But here's the thing: even in these tough moments, I'm learning to choose a new path. I'm not perfect, but I've discovered steps that help me transform these triggers into opportunities for healing and growth. I share this journey in my latest podcast episode, and I think you'll find it helpful if you've ever struggled with a challenging father-daughter relationship—or really, any tough relationship. Here's what I unpack in this episode: How to resist reacting when you feel criticized or blamed The importance of forgiving yourself for emotional outbursts A simple visualization trick to replace negative moments with positive ones It's not magic, and it's not a quick fix. But small, consistent shifts can lead to big transformations over time. So, if you've been feeling stuck in a family dynamic or want to master your emotions in challenging situations, this episode is for you. BOOKS:

Have you ever looked at your parents and thought, Why do they act like children sometimes? I know it sounds strange, but here's the shocking truth: many parents, emotionally, are still eight years old. Yes, eight! They may have adult bodies and all the responsibilities of grown-ups, but emotionally, they're carrying wounds and behaviors from their childhood. No one taught them how to process their feelings, so they just kept repeating the patterns of their parents. And guess what? That's why so many of us struggle in our relationships with them. I know this first hand because I've been there. For years, I fought with my parents, felt misunderstood, and even avoided them because the pain was just too much. Every argument left me feeling small, unloved, and hopeless. But something changed. I learned how to connect with my own inner child—the part of me that needed love and reassurance. I started to see their inner child—the hurt, scared little boy or girl inside my parents who didn't know how to love me in the way I needed. And I began breaking the generational patterns that had caused so much pain. This wasn't an overnight transformation. It took time, patience, and baby steps. But today, for the first time in my life, I can honestly say, Mum, I love you. Dad, I love you. And I mean it with all my heart. If this story resonates with you, I want you to know it's NEVER too late. Whether you're 25, 45, or 65, you can heal. You can make peace. You can stop the cycle of pain for yourself and future generations. Are you ready to take the first step? And if you feel stuck and want personal guidance, I'd love to help you.

You are amazing, strong, and a gift to this world. If no one has told you this today, let me be the first: I love you. BOOKS:

Have you ever skipped a meal to return a call, held in your discomfort during a seminar, or pushed through exhaustion because someone else needed you? I've been there—too many times to count. And guess what? It left me drained, resentful, and struggling to show up for myself or anyone else. This week, I'm diving into something that's been a lifelong challenge for me: learning to prioritize my needs without guilt. For years, I believed that putting others first was the right thing to do.

These aren't always easy, but they're worth it. If you're struggling with this too, here's my message for you: Putting yourself first isn't selfish—it's essential. You can't pour from an empty cup.

Three weeks ago, my mother and I hid a pastry in the kitchen and laughed like children as we imagined my father searching for it. It was such a small, lighthearted moment, but it filled me with a joy I hadn't felt with her in a long time.   For many years, my relationship with my mother was challenging.

Now, despite her dementia, I feel a deep sense of peace, love, and gratitude for the time we have together.   In this episode, I share my journey of healing, forgiveness, and finding unconditional love for my mum.

When was the last time you paused to ask yourself: What does money mean to me? Is it a friend, a source of stress, or maybe even a stranger in your life? Imagine, just for today, letting go of your money worries and simply embracing gratitude for every single penny you have. Yes, right now, at this very moment. I've been there too.

Five years ago, I sat in an event by JT Foxx feeling small, uncertain, and frustrated. Everyone around me seemed so much more courageous, while I struggled with self-doubt and impatience.

I have to tell you something that hit me like a lightning bolt during a recent seminar. I was watching two colleagues practice coaching techniques, and I suddenly saw myself in one of them. His name was Benny, and as he opened up about his struggles and doubts, I realized that his inner battle was exactly what I had gone through. Benny wanted to start a men's group—a dream he had held for so long—but self-doubt had stopped him in his tracks. He kept asking, “Who am I to do this? I'm not good enough. There are people way better than me.” Oh, how familiar those words sounded to me!  I saw the Benny in me—the me who, before my first webinar, was riddled with the same doubts. “Who am I to offer this? Who will even listen?” Yet, when I pushed through that fear, stepped out of my comfort zone, and finally hit “Go Live,” guess how I felt? Amazing. So proud. Like I had finally become who I was meant to be. Have you ever felt that way too? You dream of doing something big—something you're meant to do—but those nagging voices of doubt stop you from taking that step forward. It's exhausting, isn't it? Here's what I learned from watching Benny and reflecting on my own journey: we all have the skills and the potential to do what's on our hearts. We just don't always see it in ourselves right away. But sometimes, taking a step back and seeing yourself as an observer can be the key to moving forward. BOOKS:

I was 15 years old, standing in my mother's bedroom when she looked at me from her bed and said she wanted to commit suicide—because of me. That moment stayed with me for years. It became part of the shame I carried, the belief that I was a terrible daughter, a burden to my parents. For so long, I felt responsible for their pain. But here's the truth I've learned: I am worthy. Worthy of love. Worthy of peace. Worthy of freedom. In this episode, I dive deep into that painful chapter of my life and share how those childhood wounds still show up today—triggering me in unexpected ways, like a simple phone call with my 90-year-old father. That discomfort? It opened the door to some serious healing. One of the most transformative tools I used on this journey was AI. Yes, you read that right—ChatGPT. It helped me unravel the trauma and guided me through healing exercises for my inner child. And now, I'm sharing those insights with you. If you've ever felt like you're carrying the weight of your family's pain, or you've been told you're "too much"—this episode is for you. You deserve to know you're not alone, and most importantly, you are worthy. Tune in now, and let's walk this healing journey together. BOOKS:

Last week, I had the incredible opportunity to be part of the crew at Tony Robbins' "Unleash The Power Within" event in Cologne, Germany. Picture this: 13,000 people from all over the world, coming together for four days of life-changing experiences!  You won't believe the energy I felt among the 400 crew members! It was like being part of a big, loving family where everyone truly cares for one another. I've never experienced anything quite like it before!  As someone who speaks German, French, and Italian, I found myself in a unique position to help so many people. It was incredibly rewarding to see the relief on people's faces when they realized they could communicate in their native language.  During the event, I received a beautiful bracelet from one of the trainers. It says "Believe in Yourself" - a powerful reminder that we all need sometimes. Remember, you are enough! You have everything you need within you already.  I can't stress enough how much my life has changed in the past four years, thanks to the tools and techniques I've learned from Tony Robbins and my amazing coach.

Do you ever feel like giving up on your dreams? Like maybe it's just too late, or you're not quite good enough? I've been there, too. But today, I want to share something that I hope will inspire you to keep going, no matter what. In this episode, I dive deep into the power of real-life stories and how they can be a guiding light in our darkest moments. I talk about how one of my biggest inspirations, Nelson Mandela, found hope during his 27 years in prison. He discovered light in the darkness through daily journaling and being grateful for even the smallest things. If he could find strength in such dire circumstances, what's stopping us? And then there's a special story close to my heart: my dear swimming colleague, Melanie. She took on a 5k open water race for the first time this year. At first, she felt she was the slowest, with doubts clouding her mind—much like I did last year. But instead of giving up, she found strength in the story I had shared with her about my own experience. She told herself, “If Esther can do it, I can do it, too.” And guess what? She finished strong, even better than I did! These stories remind us that we all have the strength within to push through, even when things seem impossible. And guess what? It's never too late to pursue your dreams. I published my first children's book at 54 and didn't stop there. I didn't listen to those nagging inner voices saying I wasn't good enough, and neither should you! Listen to my last year's swimming race episode: From Doubt To Win: My Path: https://youtu.be/uk0FENRRiUc BOOKS:

If you're thinking, “What could be so interesting about a tortoise?”—I get it. I used to feel the same way. But this isn't just a story about a tortoise. It's a story about life, love, and what it means to truly be seen. Franklin came into my life unexpectedly, a 50+ year-old tortoise with a history of resilience and strength. At first, I didn't think much of him. Tortoises were my mother's favorite animals, not mine. I've always been a cat person. But as the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, something changed. I found myself checking on him constantly, making sure he was okay, especially on those hot, sunny days. You see, Franklin had a unique challenge—he couldn't flip himself over if he got turned on his back. And in the heat of the summer sun, this was dangerous. So I made it my mission to protect him, to make sure he was safe. And in doing so, I discovered something profound. Franklin, with his gentle eyes and his determined little walk, taught me the importance of being present. He showed me what it means to feel truly seen, something I didn't even realize I was missing. He'd greet me with his awkward shuffle whenever I was nearby, and in his simple, quiet way, he reminded me of the importance of connection. He made me feel seen. And I realize now how rare and precious that feeling is. We all want to be seen, don't we? To feel recognized and loved for who we are, flaws and all. Franklin taught me that before I can truly see others, I need to see myself. And that means loving myself, even when I mess up, even when I feel like I'm not enough. It's a lesson I'm still learning, and one I want to share with you. Franklin may no longer be with us, but his lessons live on. BOOKS:

You know those moments when life feels like an endless loop of stress, with one thing after another demanding your attention? I've been there. And I'm here to tell you, there's a way out. I've spent years chasing solutions in the outer world—fixing relationships, finding the “perfect” job, trying to make everyone around me happy. But no matter how much I worked on those things, something was always off, like a puzzle missing a piece.  Here's the game-changer: The biggest transformation in my life happened when I stopped looking outside for solutions and started looking inward. It's not about finding the perfect job or fixing every relationship—it's about connecting with your true self. In my latest podcast episode, I'm sharing the ONE thing that brought me peace and clarity after years of searching. If you're tired of the uphill battle and ready to experience a real shift in your life, you'll want to hear this. BOOKS:

A simple shift in perspective can completely transform how you see your life. I realized that all the fears, the “what ifs,” and the self-judgment that used to weigh me down were just my way of protecting myself. But what if, instead of fear, I chose curiosity? What if, instead of self-blame, I chose self-compassion? This isn't just some feel-good fluff—it's real, and it's life-changing.  For years, I've been carrying this fear of missing out, a feeling that I wasn't seen or heard as a child. It seeped into my adulthood, making me obsess over every email, every missed opportunity, every little thing that could go wrong. But today, I learned something so simple yet profound: by shifting my perspective, I can turn that fear into a drive for growth.  When I look at myself with kinder eyes, everything changes. That email I'm so anxious about? It's a chance to learn. That frustration over a broken bench? It's a reminder to stand firm in what I deserve. And those lingering doubts that creep in? They're just a signpost on my journey—not a dead end. BOOKS:

Did you know that perfectionism can actually stand in the way of your happiness and success? If you, like me, struggle with the constant need to be better, do more, and achieve more, then this episode is for you. Let's work on this together. What's the one thing you're always pushing yourself to improve and constantly criticizing yourself for not achieving yet? Is it a skill, your profession, your romantic relationship, your health, or your eating habits? Or maybe it's everything all at once? In this episode, I dive into my personal journey of daily growth through meditation, journaling, and listening to podcasts from many teachers. I'm very attentive to how I feel, think, speak to others, and the mental state in which I do things. My goal is to stay in a beautiful, positive state. Do you know how to raise your vibrations? Do you have tools to bring yourself back to a beautiful state? What do you do when your energy level is low, and you want to shift back to positive feelings? For me, listening to joyful music works wonders. Just a minute of it clears my mood, making me feel more positive. Uplifting self-talk is another powerful tool. I remind myself of all the wonderful things in my life: my sons, my parents, my home, my garden, my cats. But as a perfectionist, I always crave more of these beautiful states. I want to feel those high vibrations longer and act from that positive state to see everything fall into place in my life. However, when I lose track and start criticizing myself over something small, it often spirals into a longer period of negative self-talk. I don't want this anymore, and I'm sure you don't either. So, let's work on this together. What question can you ask yourself, or what can you tell yourself to stop going down the rabbit hole of self-blame? We need new habits to create a new identity that allows us to accept our imperfections. For example, consider the cost of self-blame. It steals your joy, happiness, and peace. It poisons your life and the lives of those around you. Do you really want this? Of course not. You want to be a positive role model for your children, a joyful friend, and a supportive coworker. To break free from self-blame, I focus on my heart and breathe consciously. This simple exercise brings me back to the present moment, filling me with joy and peace. BOOKS:

“Do you come from a family where love was or still is conditional? Do you have the feeling that you need to be perfect in order to get love and be accepted?” These questions have been on my mind a lot lately, and I wanted to share some thoughts and personal experiences on this journey of self-acceptance. I've been there—feeling stressed at work, fearing my boss's reprimand, striving to be the perfect partner, and struggling to set boundaries with my kids. Looking back, I see how a lack of self-acceptance and self-confidence held me back. Even after years of therapy and self-work, those old patterns can still resurface. Personal growth isn't a path with a fixed end. It's an ongoing journey, full of discoveries and continuous learning. Just yesterday, I had a flashback to my childhood. I was chosen last for teams in sports class, feeling rejected. This resurfaced during a recent swimming training session when my colleagues made a spontaneous decision to carpool without me. Instantly, I thought something must be wrong with me. But this time, I did something different. I talked to myself with love: "Esther, you're totally okay. I love you, and if some others don't like you, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is that you love yourself." The more I replaced negative feelings with positive ones, the better I felt. After the training, I decided to interact with my swimming mates as if nothing had happened. And it worked. I felt at ease and could enjoy my time with them.  Have you ever had a flashback from your childhood that made you feel rejected and frustrated? It's an awful feeling, isn't it? But here's the truth: You don't have to let those feelings control you. By loving yourself and understanding that others' behaviors often have nothing to do with you, life becomes so much easier. Imagine approaching every person with curiosity and neutrality, knowing that their reactions are about their own experiences, not you. You can reset your feelings anytime, finding peace and positivity. BOOKS:

Have you ever felt like your love for your children or others is just... gone? I did, and it hit me hard. One day, I looked at my two boys and realized our connection was strained. I had fallen into the same trap my mother did. She didn't have the self-confidence to handle my rebellion, and her anger still echoes in my mind. I remember her face, the frustration, and her words, "You're the worst child on earth." That pain stayed with me, and I swore I'd never be like that with my kids. But there I was, feeling devastated when my boys didn't agree with me or show me the affection I craved. Then, something amazing happened. I learned that love isn't transactional. It's not a two-way street where you give to get. Real love starts within. It's about filling yourself with so much love that it overflows to others without expecting anything in return. This was a game-changer for me. Suddenly, my relationships with my sons, now 18 and 20, transformed. I started listening more, being present, and asking how I could support them instead of telling my own stories. Our bond grew stronger, and I could see them for who they are, not just as extensions of my own experiences. I realized that people's reactions often reflect how they feel about themselves, not about you. If someone treats you poorly, it's likely they're struggling with their own issues. Understanding this helped me find compassion even for those who showed me dislike. So, how can you start this journey of self-love? Here are a few tips: 1. Positive Self-Talk: Whenever you catch yourself in negative self-talk, stop and say something kind to yourself. Consistency is key. 2. Be Present: Give your full attention to your loved ones. Put down your phone and listen. 3. Compassion Over Judgment: Understand that everyone has their battles. Show compassion, not judgment. Remember, this is a lifelong journey. The more effort you put in, the better your life will become. You'll find yourself handling situations that once seemed impossible, and you'll realize you're not as affected by others' negativity.
