How to overcome self-doubt and trust your intuition again
I’ve been reflecting on my life and certain decisions I made, and I wondered why I chose to pursue blogging and coaching. I did not have a degree in either nor the skills when I first started. But I’m now pursuing my calling and passion for personal growth based on a “hunch” or inner knowing, as I like to call it. I realized that while many people have an inner knowing or nudge towards what they want to do, one obstacle that often stops them is self-doubt. Do you ever question what you’re meant to do here? Do you feel unfulfilled by your current job and career? Do you feel…

The transformative power of difficult conversations
I remember the moment when my friend said to me that she wanted to talk about something that upset her and I thought sure, why not? Little did I imagine that I was the person who made her upset. “Please don’t take this the wrong way she said but when we talked yesterday, I felt super deflated with the way you reacted when I was sharing the things I was very excited about,” she said. “Oh,” I said. Something inside of me also deflated. I patiently listened to what she had to say but not completely processing everything she said. A couple of hours later, the storm hit me. A…

I believed I would meet my soulmate when God wished it to be. Perhaps I would become successful with a bit of luck and destiny. After getting a huge reality check, I realized that that is not how life works. It felt like things just happened to me and I just reacted to things happening in my life. I’ve always been a dreamer, a daydreamer. I imagined fantasies of me becoming successful and meeting my soulmate. I fantasized about the big manifestations…

How to boost your productivity by changing ”hard work” to “fun work”
Do you find yourself procrastinating especially when you know you have so much work to do? Do you feel like it’s “hard work”? Is the first expression you say “Ugghh, I have so much work to do?” If you do this too, you’re not alone. I’ve felt this way about work too.

Thus, to conserve energy, our brain convinces us that it’s better to procrastinate. Then it makes excuses for why we couldn’t do what we said. It seems counterintuitive that we’d procrastinate on such…
