It's Saturday and this is the first article I was able to write this week. When people asked me about it I answered "I have no time". And I believed that. I mean, this week... 😅 I had my first week of working 32 hours for a new employer😅 I commuted over 3 hours per...
Today I moved into a new place. Exhausted, as you can see from the photo. But it feels good. I moved into a nice, cosy place in what’s arguably the liveliest street of Rotterdam. Every time I walk out of the door I see people drinking and laughing, so it’s a great...
For over half a year now, I’ve been part of a book club – or rather, a ‘Book KREW’ as we like to call it. Once a month, we meet online to discuss the non-fiction book we read in the previous month. Then we pick a book to read in the next. It’s an extremely simple idea...
Yesterday was the first day I didn’t post my daily article. It wasn’t much of a choice though, because I was shivering from fever for most of the day and my throat hurt like hell. Because yes – after more than 2 years, it finally happened – COVID got me too. The...
I spent a lot of the past decade thinking about what I want. Thinking about what I love doing… about what I find fulfilling... about what my true passion is. It felt like most important thing to discover in my entire life. After all, if I was going to be spending my...
You might’ve noticed that I wrote my about page this week 🥳 I thought it would be fun to include some pictures from my childhood in there, so I asked my mom to go through our old photo albums. When I was scrolling through the pictures that she sent me, something...
Goal setting is very interesting to me. It’s one of those things that everybody knows is important, but very few people do. Even many of the entrepreneurs that I speak to don’t have clearly written-down goals. And if they do, rarely do they rewrite and revisit their...
Purpose. It seems like you can’t look anywhere these days without that word being thrown around as anyone’s one true mission in life. “Find your purpose and all of your problems will be solved.” I’ve been listening to Noah Kahan quite a bit lately and there’s one...
While I was writing the about page for this website today (yeah… it was about time 😅 pun intended), I was browsing through a bunch of my old pictures and videos. Of all the material in there, there was one video that stood out to me. This one, it's actually the full...
I was in hyper-focus mode today as I was trying my best to meet a deadline for a client. To give you an idea of my day: ✅ I created 153 new graphics in Affinity Photo.✅ I manually updated all audio, texts and graphics of 84 videos in Final Cut Pro.✅ I attended a...
Over the course of my – still relatively short – career, I have reinvented myself more than most of my peers. Here is a brief history. 2013: I enrolled for a Master’s degree in Corporate Communication at the University of Amsterdam2014: I moved to Sweden and started...
Do you also have that thing that even before you know what’s going on in your life, your subconscious brain is already playing a related song in your head? “525,600 Minutes. How do you measure a year?” This is what I’ve been hearing today as I had to say goodbye to...
