I know I can. But I cannot. [National Zwemcentrum de Tongelreep, Eindhoven, Netherlands] In coaching, we talk about limiting beliefs a lot. There are so many methodologies, frameworks, and approaches for how to notice them, name them, and work through them. But before we do any of that... can we just stop for a moment? I think there’s something we often skip: the need to acknowledge these limiting beliefs. They are not your enemy. They are here for a reason. They were born s

When was the last time when you said yes... and immediately wish you hadn't?

“How are you?” - they ask. “I’m fine.” - you respond. You never say what you really feel. You never say “I feel empty.” Maybe you have been ignoring this feeling too long. Maybe it’s so much your reality by now that you don’t even realize this could be anything else. Slowly, “I feel empty” becomes your “I’m fine”. Slowly, you become invisible, even for yourself. This common response is a core behavior we often use to mask our true feelings. And it happens quietly: first, prob

Morning coffee at the pond I spent the last week in France with my children, our mobile home looking at a lake. While drinking my morning coffee on our terrace, I watched the fishermen arriving with the sunrise, taking their seats, and sitting there quietly, waiting patiently for long hours. When they catch a fish, they pull it out, slowly, everyone having their own rituals. Someone takes a selfie, someone says something, maybe a goodbye to their catch - and then the fish is

Join me for a free webinar on 20 May where we’ll explore practical strategies to overcome burnout, reclaim your energy, and restore balance

There are thousand books and training programs available about time management - still, most of us struggle with it. ⌛ "I am not disciplined enough", "I tend to drift my time blocks", "Hours and days just disappear" - I hear these a lot from coaching clients as well as from friends. And honestly, I experience the same sometimes... 😳 Juggling many roles: being a mother, business owner, consultant, coach is not easy. Add a crazy travel and family schedule. And yes, I want (and

Burnout is a state of chronic physical and emotional exhaustion, often resulting from chronic stress and pressure over time.

Going to nature for a walk or hike recharges my soul. Going to the gym and taking yoga classes challenge my body and relax my mind. They all fill me with new energy. The time I spend amongst the trees, in the gym or the yoga studio feels like a retreat, transporting me into another reality which makes my everyday self work better. But I missed the yoga class today… again… without any specific, real reason. This made me think: Why do I continue to self-sabotage? Why do so many

“Happy Mother’s Day!” – we hear and see everywhere today. Some of us are lucky to celebrate with our child(ren), some with their own mother. Some with the whole family, parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren, siblings and other relatives and friends celebrating all mothers, grandmothers, step-mothers together. I am super grateful for my children who make every day special… Being their mom is absolutely the most wonderful experience… However, at the same time, no

The holiday season is upon us, and we often find ourselves sending out countless “Happy Holidays” messages to friends, family, and colleagues. But let’s pause for a moment and observe our own holiday experience: while we wish for peaceful, joyous, and relaxing days for others, do we also enjoy such peaceful, joyous, and relaxing days ourselves? For many of us, holidays are about obligations: we HAVE TO visit our relatives, we HAVE TO buy and wrap presents, we HAVE TO cook spe

At a recent session at the ESPC conference, I took the stage to discuss something incredibly fundamental: wellbeing. Taking inspiration from my professional journey as a consultant and coach at Search Explained, coupled with my personal experiences, I navigated through the importance of nurturing our well-being. In my consulting work, my approach has always incorporated the human perspective. Beyond the professional layer always lies an essential human connection – the enrich

In our busy lives, we often overlook the small things that bring us joy – a good book, a leisurely coffee, a peaceful stroll. But when was the last time you realized that you need time for yourself? Recently, I found moments of solitude and adventure, realizing that life shouldn’t be divided. It’s about balance. It’s about integrity. Take time to relax, recharge, and savor life’s simple pleasures. So, ask yourself: When was the last time you realized that YOU need YOU?

KMWorld (Knowledge Management World) and ESDDC (Enterprise Search and Discovery) are two conferences co-hosted the same week, same location in Washington DC every year. Without any doubt, this is the most important professional event of every year: all the thought leaders are there, and it is always a great opportunity to see fellow colleagues, partners, clients, have outstanding and deep discussions, make new connections… This year is not an exception… KMWorld and ESDDC are

When you run a business, lead a professional community, are a mother of three, and juggle with a thousand other things in your life – sometimes it’s super hard to do things that fill you with energy. You know it would be great to read a few chapters. To drink a cup of coffee/tea slowly. To walk. To run. To go to the gym. To see your friends. Or to call the ones who live abroad… But instead, you come up with a thousand excuses, maybe not even on a conscious level. I’ll do this

My children are all away, and I have a few days for myself. The house is empty, only me and my thoughts… Sometimes it feels good to have some time to reflect, retreat, and recharge. I believe it’s good not only for me, but also for my children. When I’m recharged, they have a balanced, energetic, happy mom! – So this is what my days are all about now. Language class? Girls night out with a friend? Walk in the forest? Concert in the town? Run (again, after missing too many mon

About a month ago I was in Manila for work, and also had a weekend for sightseeing there. While it was a great, shocking, and eye-opening experience, in some ways it also reminded me of my own childhood. Our situation back then was not as bad as some places I saw in Manila, but still… That weekend brought up so much deep emotions… Some of my photos in Manila (June 2023) You might already know that I was born in a small town in Hungary – in the middle of the “Alföld” (“Low La

Being a mother of three children, running a business, having a husband who travels every other week, and trying to fit my own travel schedule into this lovely mess while having time for myself, too… is a HUGE challenge. If something, I’ve learned something, especially since I became a mother almost seventeen years ago: there’s never a dull moment. There’s always something happening… And if you have two or three (or more) children, it all adds up… Have a business? – Great, add

Sometimes everything starts with a decision. And sometimes something ends with a decision. Sometimes decisions are made to change something. And sometimes decisions are made to consciously avoind something. What really fascinates me is how people react to the decisions you make. Small or life-changing decisions, the reaction of other people can be very different. Some simply ignore it. They don’t care at all. Your life, your decision. Others might understand your decision, ma
