Welcome to JORMAZIN` - also known as “You’re Amazing!”
And it’s not a motivational slogan. It’s a coaching stance: you are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole. It’s already in you.
This podcast is your pause - a safe space to listen, reconnect to your roots, awaken your spirit, and see what truly matters.
SEASON 2 is centered on coaching and becoming:
- Self-coaching tools for personal development and mental balance
- My transparent journey of deepening one-on-one coaching (CPCC / ICF path) — learning out loud, without the LinkedIn polish
- Guest conversations with coaches from different backgrounds, cultures, and specialties
Every episode is designed to bring what’s already in you to the surface: clarity, courage, and one practical next step - so you can become the version of yourself you most want to live.
You’re Amazing!
Jorma
Have you ever left a job, finished a project, or moved into a new chapter of life - but somehow, part of you was still holding on?
Letting go doesn't have to mean forgetting what you're grateful for.
In this JORMAZIN' Pause, we explore how to consciously complete a chapter of life, appreciate what it gave us, and create space for what comes next.
I share a personal story about a job I left years ago but never really let go of. A chapter that brought me important relationships, learning, and even my path into coaching.
As a Co-Active Coach who loves learning and often rushes toward the next certification, I'm discovering how powerful it can be to stop and acknowledge what we've experienced.
Together, we'll explore how gratitude can help us let go without losing what truly matters.
And I'll guide you through a gentle reflection to discover what might be ready for completion in your own life.
Your question for this Pause
Which chapter of your life is still open - and what would you like to thank it for before allowing it to be complete?
Take a quiet moment. Think of one thing that chapter gave you. Something you learned, someone you met, or who you became.
Maybe all it needs is a conscious thank you.
And perhaps that's where freedom begins.
If this reflection gave you something to think about, subscribe and share it with someone who might need this Pause too.
JORMAZIN' - Your Amazing!
JORMAZIN' - your space to pause, calm down, reconnect to your roots, awaken your spirit, and remember what truly matters.
You are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole.
I'm Jorma, and you're amazing.

This One Shift Will Change How You Feel About Your Life
What if the reason something feels off in midlife isn’t that your whole life is wrong — but that some important parts of you have slowly become too quiet?
For more than 20 years in corporate life, I became very good at turning up certain channels:
Work. Responsibility. Performance. Solving problems. Getting things done.
All valuable.
But at some point, I started wondering:
What happened to the other sliders?
Play. Creativity. Connection. Adventure. Nature. Feeling fully alive in my own body.
Maybe what we sometimes call a midlife crisis is not always a request to blow up our lives.
Maybe it’s an invitation to look at the mixing desk and ask:
What part of me has become too quiet?
In this episode of JORMAZIN’, I explore the idea of life as a mixing desk, why the settings that once served us may no longer be the right settings today, and how we can consciously turn up the volume on what feels alive and essential now.
I also share two very different volume knobs from my own life — inline skating in a skatepark and simply going for a walk with my wife — and introduce a reflection I’m calling the Wheel of Fully Alive.
Because feeling more alive doesn’t necessarily mean making life more extreme.
Sometimes it means noticing what brings you back into fuller contact with your own life.
Your question for this Pause
Imagine your own life as a mixing desk.
What is already very loud?
Work?
Responsibility?
Achievement?
Being there for everyone else?
And then ask:
What part of me has been too quiet for too long?
Choose just one slider.
Then ask:
What would turning it up by 5% look like this week?
You don’t need to reinvent your life today.
Maybe you don’t need a completely different life at all.
Maybe you just need a more conscious mix.

You’re Amazing!

How To Know What You Actually Want in Life
What if the reason you don’t know what you want anymore is that you’ve spent so long listening to what you should do that it has become difficult to hear what you actually want?
For more than 20 years in corporate life, I became very good at knowing what came next - the next meeting, responsibility, target or problem to solve.
At some point, I noticed something uncomfortable:
I had become incredibly good at managing my calendar - and strangely unfamiliar with myself.
That led me to notice two words that quietly shape so many of our choices:
I should.
Some of those “shoulds” may have helped us succeed, belong or feel safe. But what happens when we change - and the voice doesn’t?
In this episode of JORMAZIN`, I explore how old expectations can start sounding like our own voice, why knowing what we should do can become easier than knowing what we actually want, and how a simple Pause can bring us back to conscious choice.
Your question for this Pause
Think of one area of your life where you often say:
I should…
Then pause and ask:
Who is speaking?
Is this still true for me now?
You don’t need to change your life today.
Maybe the first step is simply noticing.
