When we're starting to be more visible and showing up in a way we haven't shown up before, it's easy to ask ourselves: What if they don't like me?

This question can come up consciously or unconsciously and can hold us back! 

Have you asked yourself this question? 

Well, what other people think is non of your business.

But if you still struggle with this, as I have done, and it comes up from time to time.

Here are four things that have helped me and can hopefully help you too.

1. Be specific with who you're talking to

Be specific with who you're talking to. When you know with whom you're talking. Then you also know who's feedback and opinion actually matters. If you feel like you need to explain your message and business to an uncle sceptical or an ignorant friend, it makes it scarier.

When you know you're talking to those who understand and need your offer, it's going to be so much easier. And your energy and focus are in the right...

How can you be more visible? How can you reach more people? How can you get more clients? Since you're reading this, you've probably asked yourself at least one of these questions.

In this post, I'm going to address the HOW question from some different angles.

"How?" is often a question that we start asking too soon. Before we ask how, we need to ask ourselves why and what. I encourage you to go back and read previous posts on this and download the visibility guide here. 

On the other hand, if you've been thinking about WHY and WHAT for too long without getting the answer, you will find more clues by getting started. So your WHY can also be that you're curious about it that you want to explore, that you want to try, that you want to see if it's something for you, and so on.

So think about your why. Why do you want to be more visible?

Now here are 4 points around how you can be more visible:

1. There is not 'one right way'.

There is not...

Who am I to be more visible? Is that a question you've been asking yourself? If so, you are not alone. This question comes up, especially for us overthinkers and deep feelers. Let me ask you this:

Who are you not to be visible?

You have an important mission that people need to hear about! In this blog post, I will go through 4 things around this question that I hope will help you on your journey.

If you haven't already, you can also download the free Visibility Guide to help you reflect around this, and more.

1. There is no one else like you.

You are unique with your personality, experiences, and knowing. No one else can say things the way you do. And that's why it's so crucial for you to be visible so they can find you. You might be saying the same thing as someone else, but someone needs to hear it from you, with your story and energy attached to it.

When we start to focus on something, I know that it can feel like everyone else is doing the same thing....

You became a coach and changemaker because you want to help people and set things right in the world. You are a part of a critical mission, and the more that hears about it, the more difference it can make.

But as a sensitive introvert, you don't have to do it like the extroverts! Don't try to be someone else. The way for you to make a big difference in the world is to stay true to who you are.

Unwillingness or fear of being visible is one thing that holds Sensitive introvert coaches and changemakers back. I know from my own experience and my clients that it is so much easier for us when we have a powerful Why. Here are four reasons why it's crucial to be more visible. 

Why is it important to be visible?

Why is it important to be visible? And why is it important to know why? Because if we understand why we should do it, then it's more likely that we do it.

When you want to create change in the world, in people, in your own life, there has to be a...

Have you always felt different? Understanding both sides but not agreeing or disagreeing with any of them? Do you fit in almost everywhere and don't feel that you belong anywhere? Have you ever had a desire to "save the world"?

If so, this blog post is for you. I will share a part of my story that I hope will give you some clarity and make you proud to be a "bridge builder" and honored to be a part of the new normal so you can be more of yourself.

Like all bridge builders, I always feel like I have one foot on each side of the river.

Growing up, I started to look for answers to why we humans were here, why I was alive, the meaning of all of this, and how big the universe was. These thoughts made my head spin a bit, and at the same time, I was surprised that no one else seemed to be thinking about these things. I started feeling like I had missed some vital information that other people knew since they could go about their lives so carelessly. So I assumed that...

I hope you've had a great start to the year 2020!

Before you look at the year ahead, there's something important I would encourage you to do. If you haven't already, look back at what has happened during 2019, do it without judgment. This is really important, not to see what you did or didn't do last year. It's important because you want to see the platform you are standing on now. Too look at the lessons, and then let go and accept that what has happened is in the past. After you've done that, we can look forward.

Answer these 3 questions:

1. What are the 4 biggest successes/accomplishments that happened in 2019?

2. What are the 4 biggest obstacles/lessons 2019?

3. What are the 4 biggest things that happened that don't fit into question 1 or 2?

For me, 2019 was the year when I:
- Traveled to California for a LIfeSpider Coach training with Birgitta Granstrom, Founder of LifeSpider System
- I started to make my jewelry and sold them in a shop, and then I stopped
- We visited our...

Do you ever feel yourself becoming overwhelmed?

It always feels like there is so much we need to do. There is eating, sleeping, working, exercising, getting the kids to school, then to their after school activities, plus planning for holidays and volunteering.

And that doesn’t even take into account the things we want to do!

The list seems to get longer and longer. We strive to be that superhuman that can do it all.

But in reality, it’s all becoming too much and we don’t remember why we are doing it anymore. You are stuck in overwhelm.

Read on to find out what overwhelm is and learn seven strategies to overcome it.

What Is Overwhelm?

Overwhelm is that yucky feeling that it’s all too much. That we don’t know what to do anymore and we’re just trying to keep our head above water. We feel that we might get in flow and gain clarity if we just didn’t have so many things on the list.

But here’s the thing, overwhelm is a choice.

I asked my followers: What's holding you back from creating change and create the life you want to live?

And there were so many interesting answers: Money, Demands (from yourself or others), Motivation, Procrastination, Tiredness, Not realistic, Too much to do, Time, Netflix, the mind, eating right, ... I'm going to go into the specifics of these things, but I want to address the bigger picture first.
 
I get it, I've been there, and I recognise myself in most of your answers... And it is how we usually are thought to see the world; "If I could only have/do/be this, then I would do/feel this." And we get stuck in the lack mindset, victim mode, the feeling that something is missing in our lives and that we can't do anything about it.
 
What if I told you that you could choose what you want right now? And what if you are choosing what you're having/doing/being right now? That may seem a bit hard, but play with it for a while and be curios to where it can lead you. If you were...

As I write this, I am making the same trip, from Sweden to New Zealand, that I did 3 years ago with a big difference: Then I was moving away, and this time I am coming home. We have just been to visit the family in Sweden, and it has been wonderful.

In this post, I wanted to share some of the milestones, and what has happened during our first 3 years that we have lived in New Zealand.

What if you’ve been sent here on earth with a specific mission? (or several missions) What if the only way you could carry out those missions and get a life that would get you closer to solve the mission, was to wipe your memory, so you didn’t remember anything?

I’ve been binge-watching Blindspot (Easter and tummy bug in the house). It’s a series where a woman wakes up naked in a bag on times square with no memories and tattoos all over her body which helps the FBI to solve a lot of cases. She’s getting flashbacks from her former life and !spoiler alert! Eventually realises that she has done this to herself to put herself in a position where she can carry out her mission.

I can’t help but drawing parallels from this series and our lives. Both are like a treasure hunt where we are finding clues in the past, from patterns and events that leads us to the missions who have here. The clues to our missions/ life purposes/ life intentions, or what you...
