It was a Friday morning, and my mind was already sprinting before my body had even moved. Emails, meetings, deadlines, messages, everything rushed in at once. I caught myself holding my breath without even realizing it, that subtle tightness in my chest that shows up when life feels like too much. So, I paused. One […]

It was a rainy Sunday afternoon when I found myself sitting quietly at a small café near my apartment. My laptop was open, a half-finished cup of green tea beside me, and my search bar filled with “best self-help books to read.” The list was endless. Titles that promised to change your life in 30 […]

The quiet comeback of movement For most of my adult life, walking never counted as a “real” workout. I ran. I swam. I biked for hours under the sun. I trained for triathlons, chased speed, and tracked numbers. Walking was what I did between training sessions, not the training itself. But three weeks ago, everything […]

A quiet page, a noisy mind The other night I sat down with my notebook, exhausted from training and buzzing with a hundred unfinished thoughts. Work tasks, triathlon schedules, messages I hadn’t replied to, it all felt like a noisy room in my head. I opened a blank page, wrote “Okay, what’s bothering me right […]

The night I couldn’t sleep… again Lying in bed one night, staring at the ceiling, counting the hours I was losing. My body was screaming for rest after a brutal training session, but my mind was running laps faster than my legs ever could. The clock ticked past 2 a.m., then 3 a.m., and I […]

A Morning That Made Me Stop It was one of those mornings when I had a hundred things running through my head. I was walking fast through the streets of London, coffee in one hand and my phone in the other. My calendar was full, my mind already three hours ahead. Then, out of nowhere, […]

That Voice Inside Your Head You know that voice. The one that whispers: “You’re not good enough.”“You’re going to mess this up.”“Who do you think you are?” That voice is known as the inner critic—and left unchecked, it can sabotage your confidence, creativity, and even your relationships. It shows up when you’re about to try […]
