20 Years Later
It was a cold and snowy afternoon in 2003. I can still remember my black winter boots emerging from the snow as I was putting one foot in front of the other walking towards the doctor’s office with Bjarne. Our life was about to change forever. Although he was only 31, we were just about […]
Don’t Tell Them What They Want To Hear
In a society where everyone may be concealing their genuine feelings, we either romanticize others and believe the superficial nature of our interactions, or we confront the truth about the camouflaged reality we are exposed to on a regular basis. The wall we frequently hear about that sits in front of others or even ourselves […]
Goosebumps
Sometimes, a profound sense of self-awareness offers glimpses into your destiny and the path ahead.

This is Your Play, You Get to Choose the Scenes of Your Life
I am feeling fired up. Ready to not only share the book but live it fully. In every way. With everyone. And in everything. What does that really mean, you might be asking. What does living the book look like? If you were able to look in every corner of your life which includes, conversations […]
I’m Back
Today is my birthday and I find no better way to start off my 52nd year by writing to you. It has been so long since I last wrote. I have missed you. There wasn’t a day that went by without thinking about you and your life. I brought you with me the last two […]

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? When I stopped writing back in December I really did think it was only going to be for a short week. As I had never not written to you for the last ten years. But when the first Friday of 2022 arrived, the voice inside said something unexpected. It […]
The Unexpected Lessons of 2021
It has been a year of many surprises. Both professionally and personally. My lessons are for my own life’s journey but if they can help you too, I will share them with you. Who I was when 2021 arrived is no longer here, but lessons don’t make our lives better, happier or easier. They make […]
The Petalling
If I had one wish for you, it would be to grant yourself permission to live the life of your choosing. To courageously understand the reasons behind your life’s choices to date, and allow for new choices to emerge that are generous towards you. These choices would exclude pleasing other people, considering everyone else’s feelings […]
Your Messiest Drawer
Sometimes, change comes in ways you never expected. You feel a force pushing you to do something that is confusing at first. Trust it. It carries a message. The only way to know what the message is, is to take the action. And only then you will figure out what in the world is moving […]
The 500 Letters
When I was young, my parents used to call me an open book. I used to share everything that was on my mind. But for the last decade or so, the real things that trouble me, or break my heart stay with me. You probably find it hard to believe but I share the most […]
