Always positive, confident and understanding of everything and everyone - I was always the sunshine from whom everyone could find advice and support. I always seemed balanced and optimistic and read books on personal development from an early age. When I was 19, I traveled alone to India, Thailand, Indonesia and Cuba - without a plan and with a backpack that was far too heavy. When I came back to Germany and started my dual study program in business administration - industry, I sat in the lecture halls and in the office and thought to myself: "No, THIS is not MY life. This is not the life I want." I quit, started a new degree in tourism management, was able to travel whenever I wanted, had wonderful people around me, and loved my degree program. At some point, I realized that, as “balanced” and “optimistic” as I am and as great as my life is, I should feel different. More fulfilled. Fuller. More alive. Because I didn't feel sadness, anger, fear, happiness, joy or contentment. My reactions were always capped and automatically “sugarcoated”. My mind knew how to react: optimism mode on! But what did my heart, my body, say? No idea! Connection failed... Until I found out why: I had never learned to feel my emotions and sense my body. I was deaf, numb. All my life, I trained my cognitive intelligence, exemplary mind you, graduating from high school and university with “very good”. As a “Käpsele”, I naturally understood feelings on a mental level: I thought my feelings instead of feeling them. So all the books I'd read didn't help, except for more brain memory about feelings and the body. Something else was needed: practice, change, inner leadership! When I sat in an agile leadership lecture at university, I realized that there are practical approaches that are suitable for everyday use and that explore a person's full potential. Not just “woo-hoo” spiritual “just be yourself” affirmations. So I embarked on paths where I now use my emotional and physical intelligence alongside my mental intelligence, developing an ever clearer connection to my intuitive intelligence. This is how I create my own individual life path and navigate myself skillfully through this world
