C'est quoi un employé IA ? (Et pourquoi je refuse de dire « agent ») 31.05.2026 11:51
I'm so sorry! I made a mistake and uploaded this podcast to the wrong publication. Anyway, I am grateful to everyone who has listened to this french episode so far, so I am going to leave it here. My apologies to all my English-speaking audience! Un agent IA, c’est un outil. Un employé IA, c’est une présence. Cet épisode, je le voulais court. 11 minutes. Le temps d’un café. Pour te raconter pourqu...
The Most Underrated Skill in the AI Age 10.05.2026 6:57
You know the kind. A migraine that arrives at four in the afternoon and feels like someone strapped a bag of sand to your forehead. Shoulders that creep up to your ears between two meetings and refuse to come back down. A knot in the stomach the morning of the launch. A jaw locked at three a.m. for no reason your brain can name. We have all had one. Probably this week. And what most of us do, with...
Your rituals stopped working? That's your upgrade talking. 26.04.2026 10:31
She had a ritual. Every time she had to present in a room, on a big Zoom, she’d arrive early, always. Walk in. Breathe the space to feel it and align herself. Take a few long exhales before the noise. It worked for years, beautifully, reliably. Then last year, everything started fighting her. The train delayed or found no parking. Arriving on foot, sweaty, exactly on time, zero margin. The next me...

What AI and Your Boss Have in Common 19.03.2026 9:53
Monday evening was th last game of the regular season (I’m a huge fan of our local team 😉) I’m watching Erik Brännström and for a few seconds, he’s back. At the start of the season, he was playing like the game was on fast forward: faster than everyone, sharper and Something alive in the way he moved. Then the whole season, he leveled. Game after game: competent, solid, fine… Yet average. But Mon...
The Spiritual Entrepreneur Paradox 16.03.2026 3:41
There’s a specific kind of exhaustion I recognize immediately in the entrepreneurs who come to me. They meditate. They journal. They’ve done the retreats, the somatic work, the human design deep-dives. Their consciousness has genuinely shifted. And their business is still running on the old fuel. Hustling all day after a morning practice. Trusting the process on Sunday, micromanaging on Monday. De...
The Sunday Night Dread 12.03.2026 3:31
Sunday nights used to fill me with dread. That weight settling in around 6pm. The mental inventory of everything waiting on Monday. The gap between the life I was building and the life I was actually living. I had the revenue, the clients and the reputation: everything I’d told myself I was working toward. And I felt like a prisoner in my own company. It took me a long time to understand what that...
The Two Voices Question 09.03.2026 3:43
There are two voices that show up the moment you consider slowing down. The first one says: “Finally. This is what I’ve been craving. Space. Ease. Something that actually feels like me.” The second one arrives about three seconds later: “Are you serious right now? If you slow down, everything falls apart. Get back to work.” Which one is your intuition? Which one is fear doing a very convincing imp...
The Most Dangerous Thing You've Handed to AI Isn't Your Tasks 03.03.2026 7:27
Last week, I was walking by the lake with Vanessa. One of those conversations where the world feels both too big and too close. “I’m at a crossroads. I want more impact with my agency. But the hard truth is — I’ve lost clients to AI. I have to let my team go. And I don’t know where I still have value.” I felt her deeply. Because she is not alone. Paulo, who also runs a communication agency, reduce...
Build a Thriving Business Without Burning Out Your Energy, Your Joy, or Your Soul 12.02.2026 1:03:33
In this conversation with Renee Puvvada , my book coach, we explored what truly creates a thriving business over time —beyond hustle, performance, and external pressure. This episode is for entrepreneurs who have already achieved a level of success and now feel a deeper question emerging: How do I grow without sacrificing my energy, my joy, or my life force? And especially to entrepreneurs who: *...
Inner Governance: The Skill the Future is Quietly Asking From You 03.02.2026 26:10
Dear Awakened Entrepreneur, True leadership starts in places no one else can see: our nervous system hums, our inner voice whispers and our body, breath, gut, and mind begin to speak together. That moment is where inner governance lives. It’s about felt authority and feeling safe enough inside ourselves to let each answer unfold in its own time. And then, something settles, our heart softens and o...
What it really takes to let a book work for you — and let yourself be supported along the way 30.01.2026 57:37
Renee Puvvada invited me to join her live session, where I shared the behind-the-scenes story of the pre-launch of my book and my collaboration with her. This replay is for anyone: * with a big ego like me — the kind who believes they already know and can handle things alone * who feels their book carries a real message and wants it to work for them * who senses that writing the book is only one p...
How I Know I’m Operating at My Full Potential and How You Can Recognize Yours 29.01.2026 10:04
My full potential has a very specific signature, as does yours. It shows up as clarity, like a vision without mental noise. Decisions land cleanly, without second-guessing. When someone speaks, I immediately perceive the whole — the system, the structure, the energy behind the words and my body responds before my mind intervenes. This is not something I activate, it’s here when I allow it. And if...
When Your Business Is Doing “Well”… And Still Asking for Something Deeper 04.01.2026 56:53
Dear Awakened Entrepreneur 💫 In this conversation, IVA invited me to explore a question many conscious entrepreneurs are quietly holding: What happens when your business works… and still asks for a different posture? We talk about the moment where growth no longer comes from pushing, optimizing, or explaining more. We explore why success can start to feel tight even when everything looks aligned...
Why Your Full Power Feels So Close… and Still So Distant 07.12.2025 10:50
Dear Awakened Entrepreneur 💫 There is a reason why you, me, and so many of the conscious entrepreneurs we serve experience this exact tension: ✨ the desire to step into our full power, and the instinctive contraction that rises at the same time. This tension is a memory, not a flaw. And today, I want to explore it with you. The Distance Between Your Power and Your Permission You sense your power...
Creating From Your Future: A New Way to Vision Your 2026 Strategy 13.11.2025 8:56
Dear Awakened Entrepreneur 💫 Are you working on your 2026 strategy? Thinking about it? And visioning… the results? We’re entering the season where conscious entrepreneurs everywhere prepare their strategy for the coming year, tune into their next chapter, and open the field of possibilities. And inside all the strategic workshops I’m hosting this November, one insight keeps standing out with inc...
Conscious Entrepreneur, Here is Your New Protocol of Work 06.11.2025 13:26
In this episode, I introduce a new paradigm for conscious entrepreneurs: “Being is the new Doing.” She explains how our way of working, leading, and creating must evolve — from productivity and control to energetic coherence and presence. This is the beginning of the new protocols of work — where we don’t just move from one meeting to another, but open and close energy consciously, preparing not o...
When You Stop Controlling, Life Starts Flowing Again 30.10.2025 25:46
Dear Awakened Entrepreneur 💫 We’ve been trained to control everything. Our calendars. Our cashflow. Our content. Our launches. Our results. As entrepreneurs, we’ve become the CEOs of control — managing cashflow, energy, marketing, and emotions as if we could predict every outcome. Yet, what if the real mastery of the conscious entrepreneur isn’t in controlling… but in learning to let go? The Root...
Are You an Infiltrator of the New Consciousness at Work? 23.10.2025 20:31
Dear Awakened Entrepreneur or should I say: Dear Infiltrator? 🙌 Not everyone is meant to quit their job and start a business. Not everyone is here to coach, consult, or create their own brand. Some souls are called to bring light from the inside — to lead transformation quietly, subtly, and profoundly within the structures that already exist. I call them the Infiltrators of Consciousness. They do...
The radical shift to a FLUID path to 6+ figures 🚀 16.09.2025 1:26:19
Dear Awakened Entrepreneur, You’ve tried the strategies. The launches, the funnels, the productivity hacks. And while they worked for a while, something inside still whispered: this is not the whole truth . Because deep down, you know success isn’t supposed to feel like pressure. It’s meant to feel alive, sovereign, and aligned with your energy. This is where the FLUIDE-Path begins and that’s what...
