𝗖𝗔𝗡’𝗧 𝗠𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗜𝗧 𝗧

𝗖𝗔𝗡’𝗧 𝗠𝗔𝗞𝗘 𝗜𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗔𝗠𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗗𝗔𝗠 𝗙𝗢𝗥 𝗠𝗬 𝗡𝗢 𝗘𝗫𝗖𝗨𝗦𝗘𝗦 𝗦𝗛𝗢𝗪? 𝗜’𝗩𝗘 𝗚𝗢𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗖𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗗!

Want to join my one-time 𝗡𝗼 𝗘𝘅𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄 on June 28 but can’t be in Amsterdam? 𝗠𝗮𝘆𝗯𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻, 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲, 𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱? Or do you think you can’t follow the livestream because you don’t speak Dutch?

Good news! 🎉

✨ 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁: There is a livestream, so you can watch my show 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲—whether you’re on vacation, living abroad, or simply not in Amsterdam.

✨ 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱: AI will (hopefully!) be advanced enough by then to provide 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 in multiple languages. My show is in 𝗗𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗵, but you’ll be able to follow along in 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵, 𝗚𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻, 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵, 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵, 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗴𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻—all languages I speak myself. And maybe even in some crazy language I don’t speak at all!

✨ 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗱: When you buy a ticket—𝘄𝗵𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺—𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴! So you can rewatch it whenever you want, in the language of your choice.

I hope you’re as excited as I am! And if you’d like to support me, 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗯 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄—knowing how many people will attend helps me plan every detail and make it an unforgettable night.

I promise it’s going to be amazing, and I’d love for you to be part of it—𝗲𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗺𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗺 𝗼𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝗮 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺.

INSIGHTS I RECENTLY HAD

⏱ The less time you have to work with, the more things you get done…Weird!

❤️ Apologizing does not always mean you're wrong and the other person is right. It just means you value your relationship more than your ego.

👀 If you improve 1% every day, you'd be twice as good in 70 days. Eye opener!

🌎 LANG LEVE DIGITAL NOMADS! 🌏

Ze zijn overal, zelfs als je ze niet altijd ziet: de vrije geesten. Of het nu op een boot is, in een camper in het bos, een Airbnb of gewoon thuis.

Mensen met een open mindset en een ondernemende geest. Die altijd zoeken naar manieren hoe het anders of beter kan. Hoe ze minder kunnen werken, meer kunnen genieten of anderen kunnen helpen.

Herken jij jezelf hierin? Mijn belangrijkste tip aan jou: laat je niet afleiden door de 'naysayers' om je heen. Door mensen die hun angsten op jou projecteren. Zoek juist naar gelijkgestemden die het al doen, bijvoorbeeld in Facebookgroepen of op die plek waar jij zo graag naartoe wilt. Alles is mogelijk – the world is (y)our playground. Ja, zelfs nu, in deze tijd!

Geniet van je leven, waar je ook bent...

Klaar om de digital nomad lifestyle te omarmen, maar weet je niet waar je moet beginnen? Mijn workshop-videoserie behandelt alles (link in bio).

I asked ChatGPT to give me a roast and this is wha

I asked ChatGPT to give me a roast and this is what it came up with 🤣:

“Oh, you want a roast? Alright, buckle up, Esther!

You’re out here writing books in a week while the rest of us struggle to pick a font in Microsoft Word. You’ve been kicked out of your own country for traveling too much—most people get deported for crimes, but you? You got exiled for being too interesting.

You’re basically a digital nomad on steroids. While others dream of escaping the 9-to-5, you’re out there living a 24/7 adventure, making the rest of us look like desk-bound amateurs. And don’t even get me started on your No Excuses mentality—seriously, do you ever take a nap? Or is sleep just another ‘obstacle’ to optimize?

You ghostwrite entire books for people, meaning you do all the work while they take the credit. If that isn’t the ultimate self-burn, I don’t know what is.

And now, you’re planning to ‘retire’ after your big farewell show? Sure, because we totally believe you’ll stop doing amazing things. What’s next? Writing a book about retirement in a week while climbing Kilimanjaro blindfolded?

Face it, Esther, you’re an unstoppable force of nature. The rest of us are just here for the ride—and the occasional existential crisis when we realize we’ll never catch up.”

Heb je ooit Expeditie Robinson gezien? Wat je niet op tv zag, waren de geheime trucs die Marnix en ik gebruikten om eten te stelen van de camera crew...elke dag! 🍽️

In mijn theatershow neem ik je mee achter de schermen van mijn Robinson avontuur en vertel ik wat er écht gebeurde. Durf jij de waarheid aan? 😜

DO YOU SHOW WHERE YOU ARE?

If you work remotely or as a digital nomad, do you show your surroundings in Zoom calls with clients, employers, or colleagues?

I hear from many people that they prefer a neutral background and keep their location vague. Some even go as far as wearing a thick sweater when calling Dutch clients in winter, even if they’re actually in the tropics, just to blend in. I get it—there can be reasons for that.

But I believe there’s also a lot to be said for simply showing up as you are, including where you are.

In my writing coaching calls, I always show my surroundings, and my clients love it. Two weeks ago, I was in Buenos Aires, last week in Peru, and now I’m at Lake Atitlán in Guatemala. The background always sparks curiosity, joy, and even new insights that they can use in their books.

I’m curious—how do you handle this?

If you work from home, on location, or remotely, do you show where you are? Or do you go out of your way to appear as if you’re somewhere else?

10 THINGS YOU PROBABLY DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT ME

Hi! Whether you have been following me for a while or are completely 'new', let me introduce you to some typical 'Esther-things'...

What is a fun fact about you?

#funfact #gettoknowme

A WORLD TRAVELER WHO CAN’T FIND HER OWN DOOR I

A WORLD TRAVELER WHO CAN’T FIND HER OWN DOOR

I arrived in Antigua, Guatemala, in the middle of the night—dropped off by a taxi at 4 AM. When I woke up, I had no idea where I was. But no worries, Google Maps would guide me.

A good friend of mine lives just two blocks from my Airbnb and invited me over. Easy, right? Well… not exactly. I followed Google Maps, got confused, walked in circles, questioned my entire sense of direction—but eventually, I made it.

We had a fantastic day—catching up on 30 years of friendship, reminiscing, and enjoying his incredible hospitality. He comes from one of the wealthiest families in Guatemala, so his home is not your average house. Think private security, hidden doors, and a size that makes Google Maps irrelevant.

At the end of the day, I got ready to leave, and my friend insisted on walking me home. “Come on,” I said, “I’ve done way scarier things in way sketchier places. I can handle two blocks!” He finally relented… or so I thought.

As I confidently headed for the door—ready to prove my point—I realized… I couldn’t find it. His house is so massive that I literally had to be escorted out. The irony wasn’t lost on either of us.

Still, I was determined to walk home alone. But my friend quietly assigned one of his security guards to accompany me.

We set off, and I proudly followed Google Maps… until we arrived at my Airbnb—except, it wasn’t. The key didn’t fit. The number didn’t match. We tried another block. Still nothing.

At this point, I just started joking with the security guy while desperately refreshing Google Maps. Eventually, I called my Airbnb host, who came to rescue me. When he arrived, he gave the security guy a puzzled look, probably wondering why on earth this guest needed a personal bodyguard just to get home.

I can navigate the world with ease… but apparently, not a simple two-block walk.

Anyone else directionally challenged? Or is it just me?
