You’ll fail a few times

November 30, 2025

Before you actually change that deep rooted, harmful pattern of yours.

Self development drowns in stages. First we’re unaware of what is that really deprive us of being our best self. Then comes the acknowledgement of the pattern, followed by desire to change and implementing small changes. Yet we often think that if we’ve seen it and exercised in our brain the desired outcome we want, that we’ve have change the pattern itself. Until Life sends us another test and we fail it.

It hurts isn’t it? All that hard work behind the scenes, all the understanding and self observation to get on the stage of life experience and behave the same as you used to do all those years.

It might take a few times falling on your face until you learn to manage it or, depending how deep it is, find a way to actually switch it around.

Today I had another test and I failed. I feel deprived, angry and annoyed. I knew exactly what I had to do, the voice told me a few times. But I didn’t. Instead I did exactly what I used to do up to now. And I ended up feeling the same as I have tens of ways before.

Until next time, nasty pattern. Hopefully next time the result is in my favour.

it's up to you

November 27, 2025

You’re the one who is stopping you.

What if the things you think you can’t achieve are the believe patterns installed in you when growing up? We often label ourselves, put our character in a certain box without even considering if what we constantly repeat comes from us or not. It’s the believe that we’re not fit, dyslectic, incapable of achieving our dreams, etc, etc. that causes confusion in our heads. The soul knows there is nothing it can’t achieve, there is nothing it’s not for it if it’s already planted.

Then how to hack our own mind is the real question. With patience, with understanding, by practicing compassion and proven techniques that many professionals have already shared with us.

The monkey mind will continue keeping you save in the well known limiting believes. That’s okay. But it’s up to you to make the difference.

It's not you, it's them

November 26, 2025

…or your limiting believe. when it comes down to valuing your work, they (people outside your head) are only responding, reflecting to what you have inside. They are projecting your inner believes to you. Believes that are changeable, that you’ve learned at some point in your life. The value of a work is not simply defined by a price tag, but moreover by value, story and what problem or feeling will bring to the buyer.

I’ve had clients who happily paid whatever I said it costs, and others who fund it expensive. On what base is expensive, I wonder? On the fact that I don’t believe it, or their economical situation? Or is it the way they (we as humans in general) put value on each object, service, experience?

What they find expensive is none of your business unless it’s your inner believe that you don’t cost this much. The value of your work is not related to what others think of it, but rather how you feel about it. Is this the best product/service you can offer your clients? Is your business fully representing you? If not, can you change it to make it so?

Isnt’t an objectification, it’s a reclamation

November 25, 2025

I understand it might not be what comes into your mind first, but trust me when I say there is a huge difference.

The aim of sensual photography is not to show your unclothed body or present you as a sexual object. Your sexual power is without doubt a mighty force that allows you to create in a unique way. As a woman, you’ve been given the rare, most precious, one of a kind gift and ability to bring and carry life. Your body is a sacred temple, your sexuality is a magical force that deserves to be celebrated.

Sensual photography is exactly this - a respectful, empowering experience that connects you with the side of yourself you often neglect in order to fit into the standards of this man made world. It’s time to remember who you are and what you’re capable of. It’s time to feel comfortable siting on your piedestal, you’ve deserved by birthright. It’s time to let yourself create without guild, shame or boundaries.

We need you just as you are.

You know your best way of functioning

November 24, 2025

Have you been told how you should work, organise your life or create? Have you ever been insured that their way of thinking, doing and functioning is the right way but you felt that things inside telling you the opposite?

People, often those closest to us, love telling us how we should behave and live our life. Like there is only one way to do so. Like Mother Nature create everything the same, functioning the same. If she did, I doubt we would’ve been here now…

It’s challenging to claim your rebellious nature in family/surrounding where this action was never really an option for anybody else before. It’s challenging to raise your voice and say your truth when all of the rest were trained to keep it low key and behave as expected. However, it’s totally worth it.

Society has build a working schedule based on one variation of the equation. 9-5 might not be the best, most productive way for you to make the most of your life and career. Having more quality withdraws from the society might be the most productive action you can do personally and professionally. Hustling is not everybody’s best road to success. The challenge here is comes as a self reflection - how to find out what’s best working for you and have a strength to claim it despite all the noice around?

I’m still on the road to self discovery but the more I walk on it, the more I see that we’re different for a reason, there’s no shame or failure in working your own way, our astrology chart and human design are extremely important guides on our journey.

We all know inside what is the best for us, we just have to listen.
