Have you ever felt like the world is too loud? Too fast, too much? If yes, come and escape into the forest with me for a while! Where it smells like earth, the wind is whispering and where we can talk about everything that really matters in life. About how we can discover our path in life, about finding true fulfillment, how we can feel connected to ourselves and the world around us again and all the other joys and hardships that come with being a human in this strange and beautiful world.
Let's talk about overthinking! Something I guess we all know at times, when our mind starts racing, circling around a topic and just can not let go anymore. So, in this episode I'm sharing some of my personal experiences with you, what helped me to get out it and also why it can be so valuable to look at the actual problem behind the problem. I'm talking about what can be behind overthinking after social situations, about our need for control, learning to live with uncertainty and getting to know the voices in our head.
So, make yourself comfortable, grab a warm cup of tea and let's have another Forest Talk together! 🌲🤎

# 04 Stop stressing yourself, it’s allowed to take time
I guess it's not hard to feel stressed in today's world. To feel behind, to compare ourselves and think that we should be so much further on our journey and in our lives. And by that we lose sight of one of the most important things - our uniqueness and what it means to follow our very own individual path in life. To be a learning, growing and incomplete human being and seeing the beauty in that. So in this episode I talk a bit about learning to step away from that pressure, becoming kinder towards ourselves and slowing down enough to actually hear what is right for you. Because I really believe that deep down you already know. 🌲❤️🌲LISTEN HERE:

#03 How to actually change things in your life
In the last ten years I have been going through my very own process of transformation and when I look back I sometimes can't believe how much has changed. So, that is what this episode is about: change. How is it possible to *actually* change things in our life and why is it that we sometimes turn our whole life upside down and somehow keep finding us at the same spot all over again? So, here I’m sharing some of the things I’ve learned along the way, about determination and compassion and why I truly believe that change is always possible. Hope you'll enjoy listening!

#02 How living in the Nordic wilderness changed my life
So, what is it actually like to live in the Norwegian wilderness? Where the winters are cold, life is simple and nature makes the rules. For me, experiencing that changed my life completely and it also made me remember a part of myself I have been missing for a long time without even knowing it. A part that feels natural and wild, that is connected and in touch with the world around me. Maybe something we generally have lost in our modern world? About all that I'm talking in this episode, hope you'll enjoy listening ♥
