Like the persona I work with or I love to work with are these women are amazing. Okay, already. They don't need someone to grow or help nurture some kind of talent or something because they are talented and they already achieve so many things. But sometimes you go through moments of self-doubt, fear of failure. even success and still lack motivation. Okay.
And when you're high performing in a golden cage, you just want to stick to your comfort zone. And it's these women that I love to work with, help them recognize this challenge as a first step to overcome and overcome these challenges and moving forward with this, getting back this confidence and self-belief and determination and letting them know that like these challenges
They are totally concurrable, okay? Maybe you don't see it for the moment because you were always high-performing, successful, and something happened to you, and you're now confused and overwhelmed. It's about gaining that clarity and direction again, about repurposing. And I think with some tools, solid guidance, a great support system, with Luminators OS...
that can really help women to navigate from the place where they are to who they are becoming. So you need to learn or you need to try to avoid burnout. You need to learn how to release stress. You need to learn how to relieve pressure. You need to learn how to relieve guilt. When not working, for example, okay? Start enjoying these little playful moments in life.
And then, when we have this, when we have this personal part of life and relationships, etc. I love to work with this moment to, of course, a successful career. And it can be a new job, a new title book. Mostly, I love to work with founders because I'm an entrepreneur myself and I know what it is to take a project from zero to 100. And so I just love to work.
So I have this woman that I cannot say for what institutions she works in New York because it's one of the most known institutions. She's a high level director there and she wants to pivot. She's tired of the environment. She actually moved from New York. The other part of the world took New York to have this position. And then after years, she said, this is not my environment.
I cannot drive here. This is too much bureaucracy. And I'm more an entrepreneur. I was always a VC, et cetera. And now she contacted me and she asked, okay, can you help navigate actually the closure of this chapter so I can, I don't burn up bridges. I can, no, just... live in a friendly manner and I don't know how to communicate. My culture is different. So can you help me there?
Because with my private political experience, I can. That's one thing. And on the other hand, I have time. I have some savings. I can take six months to build my new business, but I don't know what it will be. Can you help me? I love to do that.
I love to help someone who is confused or who is like a little bit new direction, help them in the present situation and start crafting their future together. That's for me, that's those are... Great journeys because I also learn a lot and we do it together. And it's really, yeah, it's really personal.
And it's so, I'm so grateful that these people jump on a call with me and can relate with me and just trust me to, yeah, to go on this journey with them. Because it's quite important, right? The next 10, 15 years of your life is always important. The next runway.
When you're feeling lost, mostly lost something, okay? And the moment you lose almost everything, everything you cared about, you have to believe that you will overcome this loss. We all did. And if you're back in shape, you just realize that nothing in life can happen that you cannot overcome. And maybe even you actually don't overcome it. You work through it and live differently.
And to believe this, you need really to trust the process. And it's something, it's making me sound vague, but it's something you have to believe in. You cannot change the situation you're in if you don't believe it. And the path you're on will... Roll out how it will roll out. It will manifest. That's, that's how it is.
And another part is there's so much about glamorized success, but there is always another side. Okay. Everything you see when you're feeling lost and confused and you envy all these other people, just know that there's always another side. of growth, okay? So there are extraordinary people that you envy when you, but they are also in deep pain, even if they are millionaires or have social status.
And they are going through depths of darkness. So don't mirror yourself with these people when you are lost, because I did. I envied so many people. I was focused on the other instead of focusing on myself, okay? You lose time, you lose energy, you lose self-belief, confidence, everything you need to start your transformation. And
The other part is just success is moving through the peaks and the lows, equally embracing what is thrown at us. That's success. The rest is noise. If somebody says to you, this is success, look at me, don't believe it. Success is failure, stumbling, maybe bankruptcy, scandals, trials, whatever it is. Just know that the real success and wealth is inside you.
And when you find that source, you become resourceful to wrap it up. I always say to the community of women I work with, you will always be in. You are going to make mistakes. You are not perfect, okay? The learning is in the doing. So embrace the change, lean into the resistance you feel, but also be grateful. Every day, these three things. That you're grateful for.
Focus on the abundance that you're surrounded with. Whether it's love or the little things. Instead of focusing on the lack of something. The voids. Your future will pan out just as it's supposed to be. And let your values guide you. I think that's for me the most important thing. And if you're really... I want to have something very tangible.
What helped me a lot and helps a lot of people I'm surrounded with is creates a structured daily routine, okay? Do these daily walks in nature. They're brain juice. Start journaling. Practice gratitude. It really helps stay positive. Pursue something like a further education. It can be a course. There are so many free courses online.
Do something that sharpens, that keeps you sharp, that sharpens your knowledge, for example. You don't feel you're You're not able to learn. No, you keep on learning. Engage in sports. So important. And if you're really in a dark period, of course, you need therapy. Of course, you need to understand and manage your mental health through professional help.
But all these little things, it's compounding. It's compounding to change. It's compounding your transformation. And it's, I can assure you, it works. It didn't only work for me. It works for all these amazing women I work with for sure.
