Happy Messy Mind

#24: Life Is a Rollercoaster (but Your Happiness Doesn't Have to Be)

It's a total cliché, but for a reason, right? Even though life takes you through ups and downs, throws you some curveballs or just generally sucks - you can still maintain your happiness, calmness and hopefulness.  How? In this episode I take you through some of my personal experiences, thoughts and lessons. Life is not about avoiding the downs (that's just lot possible or realistic), instead it's about going through your downs with grace, patience and kindness towards yourself (and life). ...

#23: BEING AN INTROVERT (& Proud Of It)

I used to think being an introvert was something to be ashamed of. I thought that being introverted and everything that came with it equalled being weak and insecure. Oh boy, was I wrong!  Since learning about what being an introvert really means - I have never felt more powerful and more confident saying it out loud. I have honestly never felt more in tune with myself - I feel proud, strong and safe in knowing why I am the way I am and how to prioritise my time and energy for a balanced li...

#22: HOW TO NOT FUCK UP A NEW RELATIONSHIP (Classic Messy Mind)

Well guys, the title says it all. As messy minds, we have a tendency to overthink and overanalyse to the point of tripping our own feet. It's not easy to navigate waves of thoughts in a new relationship, but in this episode I share some points on how to reflect on our own behaviours and how to grow a new relation in a healthy direction. I am in NO way a relationship expert (I think that's clear from my other dating episodes hehe), but these are things I've learned along the way and ways I'm...

#21: GOALS AND PRIORITIES FOR 2022 (The Year Of Happy & Adventure)

Welcome to 2022 with “Happy Messy Mind”! I wanted to kick of this new year with an episode all about starting a new year, resolutions and my own personal goals. I am someone who doesn’t believe in New Years resolutions, but I AM someone who absolutely sees the value in setting goals and priorities for yourself to work for and keep you motivated. I believe that without direction or purpose, you’ll wander around lost and never really get anywhere. So in this episode I share my views on beli...

#16: SCARED OF BEING VULNERABLE (Fears, Insecurities & Worries)

I thought that I needed to wait until I was past my insecurities to share my journey. I thought that I should only share if people’s words couldn’t hurt me anymore. But my whole message is to fight our way through the fear, that we’re capable of much more than we ever imagine or believe about ourselves.  I am also realising that the most powerful way of inspiring others is to be vulnerable. So, here we are, I’m fucking terrified, but this is what I need to do. In this episode I’m sharing s...

This episode is about loneliness, believing in love, not giving up on finding your “person”, how to be okay alone, how not to settle, realising your worth, figuring out what you want and what’s good for you.

Is there something wrong with me if I’m alone? What if I never find true love? In this episode we dig deep into...

I will also share my personal experience with dating myself, why I started and what I’ve learned. Finally, I will OF COURSE also be sharing do’s and don’ts + ideas and ways to go on date...

#1: WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO ME?

I wanted to start our adventure together, by sharing my own personal journey. I've been through a lot of pain, self growth, battled my messy mind and learned SO much to get where I am today. This is what the hell happened to me. I used to hate myself and my life. I used to think I was cursed to have a terrible life (why? well, you'll have to listen to find out). Now, I still have a messy mind (and I always will) - but I am happier than ever and full of hope. I am SO excited to finally shar...

#2: I HATE MYSELF (A 7 Step Guide To Self Love)

I used to have no self esteem. I used to hate everything about myself, and could barely find even 1 thing to compliment myself. Now? I still have my insecurities, but I learned to see the beauty in the person I am, I learned to accept and love what I cannot change, and most importantly I got to know myself on every level and I became my own biggest fan. So I created this 7 step guide to self love, to share some of my experiences and best ways to start loving yourself and growing you self wo...
