instead of letting another month pass by, build your foundations by only picking a few habits to focus on at a time

my suggestion is for you to pick 1 habit from each area: confidence, future, mind, body, soul

but if that is too much, pick just one area to focus on šŸ¤

psychology hack: I usually make my coffee before work as a pre-game ritual ā˜•ļø but sometimes I intentionally wait until Iā€™ve finished a hard task to prepare it (*its like a reward*). this taps into the dopamine system and retrains your brain to get into the habit of doing hard things šŸ’­

Iā€™ll always be the first one to tell you to start journaling (Iā€™ve been doing it for almost 20 years after all) šŸ“–āœšŸ½ but what good are your entries and plans if you only allow them to exist inside your journal??

unless youā€™re doing it within an accountability group like our mindful go-getters club WAVES OF THOUGHTS | JOURNALING + EVENTS šŸ¦‹ imagine being surrounded by other ambitious girls who cheer you when you win, hold you when you spiral, celebrate your steps, and push you when you play safe. comment ā€˜CLUBā€™ to join us!!

visualising positive outcomes IS beneficial, donā€™t get me wrong. but that alone wonā€™t bring you to your end goal. no amount of vision boards or scrolling on pinterest will ever equate to taking one step forward (even if it is a small or messy one) āœØ

self-criticism puts your nervous system into threat mode. when youā€™re in this state, your mind and body will always prioritise safety over growth. so there will be no choice but to retreat. basically, bullying yourself literally prevents you from succeeding šŸ«‚

action creates motivation (not the other way around). in psychology we call this behavioural activation. so each time you keep a promise to yourself by taking a small step forward, you strengthen your self-trust, making it easier to continue showing up šŸ’ŖšŸ½

welcome ambitious girls šŸ¤

excited about where Iā€™m going but always grateful about where I am (I am exactly where Iā€™m meant to be now)

donā€™t treat taking action as an excuse to bully yourself. consistency doesnā€™t have to be so strict and painful. soft discipline is the way to go for ambitious girls

donā€™t forget about each. too much softness leads to stagnation and no progress on your goals. too much action leads to overwhelm and burnout.

with my coaching clients I use a soft exposure technique. because getting outside your comfort zone is how you grow but it must be through an intentional step otherwise it will cause a great shock to your system

if youā€™re new, hi Iā€™m Irene! and here we talk about dropping excuses, regulating our nervous system to fuel ambitions, and choosing aligned action over waiting.

this week I realised itā€™s been almost 3 years since Iā€™ve moved to croatia (?!?!) and 9 years since Iā€™ve moved abroad

šŸ‡µšŸ‡¹ ā†’ šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§ ā†’ šŸ‡³šŸ‡± ā†’ šŸ‡­šŸ‡·

and I have to admit: when I packed my suitcases this time I thought I was just changing countries once again

little did I know the next 3 years would completely destroy and rebuild me into a new version of myself šŸ¦‹

during that time I launched my first physical journal, built a coaching business, hosted workshops, grew an incredible community of ambitious women, became a certified coach, and Iā€™m now studying to become a yoga teacher šŸ¤

but beyond the wins, almost every belief I have about success, ambition, independence, and even happiness has been challenged

šŸ’­ here are a few of the biggest (and toughest) lessons croatia has taught me over the last 3 years
