89. (S3E15) Detoxing from Expectations with Aneta Kuzma

I'm excited to have Aneta Kuzma join me. Aneta, an immigrant from the former Yugoslavia, shares her incredible journey of personal growth and self-discovery. Raised with strong values of family and community, Aneta learned English in kindergarten, studied liberal arts in college, and worked in sales and banking for 22 years before feeling the urge to design the life she truly wanted.

We dive into Aneta's decision to hire an executive coach, which ultimately led her to start a coaching and consulting business focusing on executives, wellness, and health. We also discuss her introduction to meditation during her yoga teacher training and how it became an essential part of her life.

Aneta and I explore the powerful concept of taking sabbaticals – intentional periods away from work and life to focus on oneself – and how they differ from typical vacations. Aneta shares her experiences with multiple sabbaticals, both international and local, and how these breaks have shifted her mindset and recharged her creative and productive energy.

We also talk about creating a joy list filled with things that bring happiness, and the importance of scheduling joyful activities in advance. Aneta encourages listeners to capture special moments in their memories and take inspired action to create those moments.
