Why Do I Feel Anxious When Checking My Bank Account?
That anxiety isn’t about money.
It’s about meaning. And if you’re human, you probably attach a lot of meaning to money and the number on your bank account.
The Plant You Forgot to Water
Most people have this one corner in their “life garden” they don’t touch. And more often than not, that corner is money.
We avoid it. Outsource it. Tell ourselves we’re “not good with it.”
Or that we’ll get to it later.
Or that it’s just not who we are.
But here’s the thing: the part of your life you avoid the most?
That’s usually the one that’s most ready to grow.
Money Is Not Just Money
Money can feel like a big, unsolvable mystery.
It’s everywhere. It’s flowing or stuck. We love it, hate it, chase it, fear it. We say it doesn’t matter, but then why does it shape so much of our lives?
Most of us never really got a chance to understand money. Like truly understand it. Inflation, interest rates, housing bubbles, what the Fed or the European Central Bank are doing, Bitcoin, recessions - what does any of that mean, really? And how does it affect your day-to-day life? Honestly… most of us are just nodding along in confusion.

When talking about “crypto,” people often get lost in the technology and its complexities, the various use cases, and the potential for mass adoption. While all of that is super exciting, it's not what makes cryptocurrencies so relevant.

Financial stages explained, absolute must-knows and absolute no-gos. Like it or not, money matters. All the more if you would like to quit your job and follow a completely different career path, move abroad, start “digital nomading” or just take a few months off to figure things out. If you’re planning a big life change, it is super important to know where you’re at financially.
Manifestation, Snow White and the secret to success (Part 2)
I am gullible. You are gullible. We’re all gullible. It is a fact of life. We are humans. We fall for nonsense sometimes. And manifestation is mostly nonsense (if you missed Part 1 of this series, find out why here). We want to believe something. We want to be part of the club who knows the secret. Who has insights that no one else has. We want to feel special.
Manifestation, terrorists and quantum physics (Part 1)
What does manifestation have to do with terrorists and the success industry, you might ask. It’s an odd trio at first sight, but they share a common thread: the power of the psyche. Let’s dive into what manifestation is, what works about it and what doesn’t, and the psychological phenomena that make it so seductive.
What’s your money mantra?

Fun facts about breathing you didn't know (but should)
Breathing might seem like the most natural thing in the world – after all, we've been doing it since the moment we burst onto the scene, screaming and gasping for air. And you’ve been doing it all the time while reading these words, too.
How I went from Pranayama hater to breathwork lover (and what it taught me about myself)
I hated Pranayama. I just hated it. Whenever a Yoga class started with breathwork, I felt that incredible mental resistance. My body felt like it was dying during these endless breath holds. And then everything changed when I heard these words…
Why you should read James Nestor’s famous book “Breath”
Here are the five most interesting findings. Nestor has made it his life’s work, after a life-altering breathwork session, to unearth the mystery behind this lost art. He talked to a lot of scientists, physicians, breathwork gurus, did an admirable amount of (sometimes awfully painful) self-experiments and distilled it into the following findings.
Why personal growth sucks
Ever cringed when you look back at old pictures or posts on social media from five years ago? Or are you sometimes a tiny bit embarrassed about how passionate you were about this one thing that you couldn’t stop talking about and how it now no longer feels true?
You are not traumatized
How overusing psychological language does more harm than good. Already triggered? Great. Education about our own psyche and our own nervous systems is amazing. We should all know more about how humans function, how communication works and what it actually takes to be healthy, mentally and physically and how these two go hand in hand.
Who are you when nobody is watching?
Why it matters and how you become the only accountability buddy you’ll ever need. We often think that we can just work on this one thing and that’s enough to change our lives. Unfortunately, this is not how it works. At all.
