1) THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO YOU IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS?
Married my best friend. Pursued my passion and got professionally certified in wine. Got an amazing job. Decided to travel to Australia and South America for the next 12 months. Registered to climb Mt. Elbrus (5,642 m) in July.

2) THE WORST THING THAT HAPPENED TO YOU IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS?
I can’t really think of anything bad apart form a bicycle crash in the fall maybe. Though there was something very challenging this year: I have decided to let go of the toxic relationships. It was painful, and I actually had to go deep into why I needed external validation and work though my fears and perceptions to get clear on what’s true to me. All the pain was worth it – now I feel very clear-headed and happy in the pursuit of what I believe in.

4) YOUR BIGGEST WORRY FOR THE NEAR FUTURE?
Losing my family and loved ones to death – inevitable but scary.
But remember a great quote from Alan Watts:
“No amount of anxiety will make a difference to what is going to happen”
So be grateful in the present, be kind to others, and make the little steps every day towards your ideal future.

6) A ONE-SENTENCE MESSAGE TO OTHER WOMEN?
Dare to question everything! To find the right path in life, you have to embark on the journey of self-discovery – break through the limiting beliefs you were conditioned to believe and concentrate on your idea of the future.
