My first trip to India was five years ago
In 2017 I did not like the place I lived. My career was shiny and felt unhappy. I was lost. Most of my university friends had babies and it just did not feel like a path for me. But I had no idea what I really wanted.
I decided to move overseas, I quit my job at a big corporation and I had a few free weeks to pack everything and leave.
I saw a post by a local yoga school about a very last spot for an Indian trip leaving in a few days.
That was the sign.
I applied, bought the flight tickets and I was set to spend a month in an ashram.
It was nothing I expected.
The smell, the heartbreaking poverty, the people's curiosity looking at my blond hair, the constant noise, the cows nudging my back on the bridge to proceed and the many hours spent in 'meditation' aka in frustration while I tried to concentrate and my mind was all around.
With all that, it changed my life.
Instead of meeting the society's expectations, I started to seek what my truth is.
I discovered an inner world I wasn't even aware it exists.
I realized how little I knew about myself and how fear and resistance drove my actions.
I became more curious and my eyes started to shine.
Months later I was with my grandmother and she noticed how much calmer I am.
"You have changed." - she said.
I started to live my life from within. Make decisions that feel right in my body. Stop pleasing others. Try out new professions. Study what feels exciting. Dress more colorfully. Hug. Trust.
Fast forward five years I live a rich, abundant and fulfilling life. I coach creative, highly sensitive people to connect with their true Self. I help them bring their abundance down to Earth. Materialize it. Make it a reality.
My clients:
Make music albums.
Start their own school.
Get their dream-job.
Move out of the luxury loft and have a garden.
Build a community around their passion.
It sounds like other people’s stories that you can read on social media. I never thought that they are true, nor that I can be one of them. And it happened.
If I could only give ONE piece of advice:
Go on that that trip. Buy the tickets. Trust the process.
If you need company along the way: I'm here.
