Abundance

Inspiration shot January 2025

The new year and the solstice mark a time of transition. During a shamanic tantra retreat and local ceremonies in Peru, I learned to let go of what no longer serves me and create space for a truly authentic new beginning. This transition into 2025 feels like an opportunity to go deeper, beyond superficial resolutions.

For me, 2024 was a year of abundance. Professionally, it was an exceptional year: fully booked writing weeks, coaching sessions more popular than ever, and more free time thanks to streamlining my business. This created room for personal growth, including four tantra retreats, an MDMA journey, and a San Pedro ceremony 🌵. I also treated myself to more luxury, such as flying business class.

Now, my focus shifts to 2025. How can you share abundance with others? And what pain are you willing to endure to realize your dreams? I’m excited to share my insights and inspiration with you. Enjoy the read!

Abundance vs. scarcity

An abundance mindset focuses on possibilities, trust, and growth. You see opportunities, invest, and share what you have. You believe there is always enough—whether it’s time, money, or love. A scarcity mindset, on the other hand, fixates on what’s lacking, encourages saving out of fear, and operates from a fear of loss. The difference? An abundance mindset opens doors and energizes you, while scarcity shrinks your world. By consciously choosing abundance, you create more space for happiness, connection, and success. What will you choose?

Year review

There are many ways to reflect on the past year; you can make it as detailed as you like. The simplest version is to write down your wins from the past year, what didn’t go as well, and where you want to focus in the year ahead.

For me, 2024 was a year of abundance. While I’ve been scaling down my business, I achieved my best year ever, with more income AND more free time. This brought not only financial abundance but also space for personal growth and connections with like-minded people. Read my year – review here.

Which pain will you choose?

Everyone wants a great job and lots of money. But are you willing to work 60 hours a week, face endless traffic jams, and deal with piles of paperwork? A happy relationship sounds wonderful, but it requires tough conversations, vulnerability, and sometimes painful compromises.

The lesson: deciding what you want is easy, but choosing what you’re willing to fight for – that’s the real challenge! Don’t ask yourself, “What do I want?” Instead, ask, “Which pain am I willing to choose?” Read more in Mark Manson’s article: The Most Important Question of Your Life.

Sharing abundance

In the village near my trullo in Italy, two amazing women dedicate themselves to rescuing stray dogs. They work six days a week in a café and spend all their free time, energy, AND money caring for dogs that no one else wants.

Many of us would love to do something meaningful but simply don’t have the time. What we CAN do is contribute financially. It’s unfair that they have to cover all the costs from their modest salaries, isn’t it?

Let’s help by donating for medicine, sterilizations, and food. I promise every euro will go directly to the dogs 🐾
