Hello Reader, Prague's first warm days have arrived, and as summer approaches, I feel a bittersweet nostalgia wash over me. For years, I spent these summer days in the streets, approaching strangers. Practicing conversations. Forcing myself into interactions, convinced that repetition would cure my anxiety. Despite talking to thousands of people over nearly a decade, my social skills barely improved. I felt broken. Like there was something fundamentally wrong with me that I couldn't fix...

Hello Reader, I'm writing this from a weathered wooden chair in a cottage nestled near the German border. The rolling hills and green trees seem to radiate a kind of peace you can't find in the city. It's the kind of quiet that lets you hear yourself think. Prague has its own forests—real ones, not just parks—woven between the city streets. But there's something different about being really away. Where the only sounds are wind through leaves and birds announcing the morning. For five days, I...

Hello Reader, As I write this, adjusting to life with our newborn daughter, I'm slowly finding my rhythm again. For the first time in a month, I had one day with more than 4 uninterrupted hours for work. While this doesn't yet match the pace of incoming ideas, I wanted to share something exciting. Despite the limited windows for work, I've poured my focused energy into completing a comprehensive guide (around 30 pages) for those ready to turn their healing journey into meaningful work. It...

Sacred Beginnings Last Thursday, I became a father for the second time. Having worked with birth trauma through inner child healing, rebirthing, and holotropic breathwork, I've learned how impactful the birthing experience is for babies,...

Hello Reader, In my last newsletter, I shared how I finally walked away from my engineering career the day before my son was born. Today, I want to take you deeper into my journey—the pivotal moments that shaped my path and the lessons I learned along the way. This newsletter is longer than usual. So, if you're short on time and want to get to the main insights, skip to the last section. For me, the transition from following the traditional path to embracing the road less traveled wasn't...

Hello Reader, Have you ever felt that strange tension between who you're "supposed to be" and who you're called to become? I certainly have—and resisted it for years. That resistance left me feeling lost, apathetic, and deeply unfulfilled. My journey from ignoring that calling to finally embracing it taught me something profound about what keeps us stuck. January 2009 I still remember the day I failed my first University exam. It was January 2009. I hated descriptive geometry, and although...

Hello Reader, This week, I woke up sweaty in the middle of the night. Maybe you've had a vivid dream like this before—one that feels painfully real. I was back in my 9-5, sitting in the office, trading my time for money, hoping that someday, when I felt I had saved enough, I would quit my job to travel the world and start my online business. The fifteen years I had been on the wrong path flashed before my eyes—from that day in my second semester of university when I had an insight and almost...
