I'm 32, and my CV is a complete disaster. 🤯 If you're between 20 and 30 and yours is too, this is for you ⤵ Listen, I changed direction more times than I can count... Here's every single turn: Age 18 ⤵ While everybody went to university, I enrolled in hotel management school. Quit after one year... It just wasn't me. I didn't know what was yet. Age 19 ⤵ Started over. Business and law this time. Honestly... because both my parents did it, and I had no idea what else to do 😅 Age 23 ⤵ Ended a five-year relationship and finished my bachelor's in the same year. One of the darkest periods of my life. I almost didn't finish it, but somehow I did. Age 23 to 25 ⤵ Took jobs I didn't love. Went to India for the first time and worked with an NGO. I had no idea what I was building. I just followed what felt alive. Age 25 ⤵ Started a master's in international business. Moved into my first own apartment in Vienna. A student job at a pharma company turned into a full-time marketing role. On paper, everything was working. Age 29 ⤵ Quit the job and left the apartment too. Packed a bag and went traveling. With time, I started writing and showing up on LinkedIn, created my own offers, and worked in all kinds of different fields. Age 32 ⤵ Ranked #2 in Motivation & Personal Development and #9 in Business & Entrepreneurship in Austria. Working with amazing clients and getting super cool brand deals. Speaking on podcasts and so much more. Building Change Your Air, a community for people who want to live and work differently. Do I regret any of it? Literally zero 🦋 Is this the end? Do I have everything figured out? I don't think so. It feels more like the beginning. More alive and more me than ever before. Who knows what comes next. But I'm open to it 🤍 Anyone else with a CV that makes no sense??

Something I've been finally admitting. Took me 2 years to say the thing I knew on day one. 😅 The last few years, I've learned a lot: mindfulness, personal growth, personal branding. And somewhere in there, I hid the actual core of what I want, inside offers that were never fully mine. I believed in them, especially because everyone else seemed to be doing it, and it worked, so I kept going. In the last few weeks, my whole mentality shifted, from "this is what I should do" to "this is what I WANT to do." So here it is, finally: I'm going in the direction that lights up my whole being. Travel. Location freedom. Living where you want, working how you want, instead of the life you were sold. Combined with food, culture, and how you experience the world. The thing I could talk about for hours. That was always me, underneath everything else. Why did I hide it? A few different reasons... not going into all of them here. But here's what I know now: the thing you're most excited about is also the thing that opens the biggest doors. Energy is contagious, and you can't fake it forever. ⚡ Nothing I learned along the way is wasted. I'll use every bit of it. Just pointed in a new direction now. Here's what's actually coming: A community for people who want exactly this: real location freedom, not just the idea of it. Content that goes deeper into how, not just why. And honestly, probably some things I haven't even figured out yet, but I'd rather build it in the open than wait until it's perfect. I'm super excited. Something that's finally, fully me. Expect a lot more content on this, starting now. 💛

Time to finally admit: I hate working from anywhere. (Okay, hear me out 😄) Every morning, I have to decide where to work from. Which country gets my laptop? And that's only the first decision. Then I have to choose when to start, whether to take a long lunch first, and which days to take off. It's exhausting... Mountains or sea? Where to next? Do I really want to wake up somewhere new again? Please help (or send a plane ticket 🙊) Where would you want to open your laptop tomorrow? 🦋
