I met Amy a few months back via a common friend. John thought we would like to meet each other and find common interests. He did not explain much. But he was not wrong.

International Women Day can bring mixed feelings. For me, it brought me a reflection of what it means to be a woman.
I have long wanted to interview Francesca Geens, creator of the Happy Self Journal. She was one of the first women I reached out to during the first season. However, there was a lot going on in the Happy Self Journal world and it was not until I exchanged emails with Francesca about her newest journal edition for 3-6 years old, that we used the opportunity to schedule a date.

I am not sure I feel like that a lot. I always find something I can do. A way of

Sometimes, we need to learn how to receive. Or at least I have to. I haven’t practised this skill much.
I like to believe patience generates patience. In a virtuous circle, we all become more patient. Patience is a virtue, a talent, and an outcome of hard work. And it can be contagious if one even wants to use such word in such day and age.
As I face 2021, I want my year to be fearless. I will face my fears and then kick then in the b*t. That is how I want 2021 to be. #FEARLESS
It is the time of the year to take stock, to look back, to look forward. I am no different.

I have known I wanted a podcast for over a year. And 6 months ago I went for it. Now I am sharing what I have learnt along the way.
