Achieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS02E11 - Becoming a Digital NomadIn this episode, I'll be sharing some exciting news with you all about a major pivot in my coaching business.
For the past few years, I've been focused on coaching people on feeling happier at work, so that they can create an environment for themselves that matches their ambition. While I've loved this work, seen great results with many clients and will continue to support you in this capacity, I've recently realised that my true passion lies elsewhere: in coaching digital nomads!

A few months ago, I responded to Holly's post, looking for people to join her as a guest on her podcast 'Uplifting Women'. Little did I know that we would end up having such a soul-aligned conversation, that it seemed we had known each other for years. I had such an...2023-04-2632 min

Not only are companies laying off employees left, right and center, they're also asking people to come back to the office more days in the week.
What does that mean for employers and employees?
In this episode, we explore the challenges of returning to the office as employers request their employees (in some cases coercively) to come back to the workplace.

The pandemic has changed the way we all approach our daily lives. While close contact services disappeared for a while, even our beloved Massage Therapists had to close their businesses for a while, one person decided to make the struggle her gain.
Viv Richards has put the pandemic to use in the best way for her and her future and asked herself: What's next?

Have you ever wondered what it really means to be independent?
Does it mean living without the need for others, or does it mean something else entirely?
I know how it feels to be stuck in a cycle of dependency, but it doesn't have to be that way. For those who are new to the newsletter, I'm Kiona van Griensven, a private coach dedicated to helping you take control of your life.

In the workplace, one of the most important things you can do it to be yourself as much as humanly (and spiritually) possible. You need to show your true self in order for others to see who you really are. Not only will it help them feel more comfortable around you, it will make them want to work with you as well as trust what you say.

Growing up I kinda wanted to be successful, but I wasn't what you would call an A+ student, and frankly, I didn't really care that much about the grades anyway..!
At the time I was chasing happiness in anything and everything that I enjoyed doing.
And you know what?
I think I got it right back then, so that's exactly what I'm doing now!

Achieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS02E02: SUCCESS STORIES; "Come on!" with Dounia ZeghadiIf you had asked me 3 years ago what success meant to me, I would have said that it's achieving the role of Strategic Account Manager and owning a house in Hampstead, UK.
If you asked me that now, I would say it's overall happiness with the life I choose to live, regardless of what I own or the value of my belongings.
A lot has changed since I started out on my journey of entrepreneurship.
What I classify as success now is not so much related to what I can buy, it's related...2022-11-0223 min

And when failure happens, or we make mistakes, we often get discouraged and if we're not careful, we may even end up giving up on our dreams.
The way I see it, we have two choices. Sulk in shame, or step into the light.
This episode goes into both of these options, and explores what is means to shine light on the shame we feel about a failure or mistake.

Often we will ask the people around us for advice, or for feedback, to gauge whether the step we are thinking of taking is the right one for us.
It's understandable to want to seek validation for the decision we're about to take. But there's one key aspect of validation that we need to remind ourselves of when we do, and that is whether the validation we're seeking is outwards, or inwards.
While asking for feedback is a...2021-11-2211 minAchieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS01E12 - Resetting you Energy with Sound BathsEver heard of a Sound Bath?
If you're like most people, you probably don't know exactly what to expect. And to be honest, my first and second experience weren't exactly winning me over right away. It actually wasn't until I went to another one the other day that I fully immersed myself into it and felt the effects of it throughout every fibre of my being.

"I'll be happy when I own.."
"Reaching X level in my career will make me feel happy."
You will have either said, or heard all of these statements at some point in your life. And you will have formed a thought or opinion about those statements over time as well. But what does happiness truly mean, for you? What does it mean for you to live a happy life, versus a meaningful life? And how what effect are the machines in your life having on your happiness?

Yeah, me too.. No fun in that at all, is there!?
When it comes to communication, there's a lot of information to be found, but what I've learned is that the most important aspect of communication is the intention with which we go into a conversation.
Going into a conversation with the intention of informing someone about your perspective from a place of love, will always give you a better chance of communicating effectively. Going i...2021-10-2509 min

Recently, a lot of my clients started talking to me about how hectic life is, now that we're all continuing life as usual. Getting up earlier on days we plan to go into the office, meeting up with friends for dinners, drinks, cinema, theatre and what not, and getting home late after a long day at work, catching up with colleagues and making the most out of the time we get to spend together again IRL.
When someone said to me...2021-10-1111 minAchieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS01E07 - The Elephant on your ShouldersAs we grow up, we gather experiences that make us who we are. And as we gather more experiences, we start holding onto them in our little 'backpacks'. If you're in tune with your identity and you've worked on developing a solid mindset, you'll be able to discard whatever doesn't serve you. If however, your mindset is less well-developed there's a chance you end up carrying around more than is good for you. Enter, the Elephant on your Shoulders..
I love using this metaphor because it really brings my point home.
When we think about...2021-10-0415 minAchieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS01E06 - Manage Your MindsetMindset - What does it mean? And how can you manage your mindset?
I like to think of the mindset as a set of beliefs, triggers, methods, or notions we hold as a result of our experiences in life. It's what you could call a frame of reference. It's everything that determines how you make sense of the world around you, and of yourself in it. It's how you think, feel, and act. Our minds are basically a personalised world map, created by our past.
In this episode I go deeper into what it means to...2021-09-2718 minAchieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS01E05 - Believing is Achieving & Taking Inspired ActionIf there's anything I love to talk about, it's achievement! Especially since I learned that I had been looking at it all wrong..
As we grow up, we move from believing in ourselves and not letting ourselves be held back by anything, to being suspicious of everything, everywhere we look and doubting ourselves based on past experiences.
Through my spiritual journey, I've learned that by holding onto this suspicion, I was actually preventing myself from achieving my desires, and the results I wholeheartedly wanted to achieve. I stopped believing is myself for a while and passed...2021-09-2013 minAchieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS01E04 - Freedom! And How I Recently Decided that it would Become my LifestyleWhen we decide to change our lives, it's not a change that's made right then and there. It takes time, evaluation, alignment and confirmation, and from there it's deciding to go out and DO IT.
This is exactly how it happened for me.
From the moment I started thinking about starting my own business I've done of soul-searching to understand my motives for wanting the change, and whether it was what we truly desire. Once I realised what I wanted, I started to take inspired action towards reaching the goal I had set out for...2021-09-1312 minAchieve in Flow with Kiona van GriensvenS01E03 - Soul-Aligned living through your Personal Core ValuesEver been asked to define your values in a room filled with colleagues and only 5 minutes time? How did that feel?
When I was working my 9-5 I never questioned whether I was living my life at its core value.
Throughout the years I picked up on a mixture of lessons..
Work hard..
Don't give up..
Don't question your superior's decisions..
Do things perfectly or not at all..
Save, save, save..
Don't take big risks..

It's a raw, real and authentic recording of my story, in all it's glory!
You've probably heard of the saying "Past performance is no guarantee of future results". We sometimes believe that people's current situation is a full reflection of their past accomplishments, but I can tell you that in most cases, nothing could be further from the truth.
