Honoring Your Sacred Extremes: Creating a Business That Breathes with You

A solstice reflection on rhythm, permission, and building a business that respects your pulse

Dear Awakened Entrepreneur 💫

Do you believe you have to be consistent all the time?
Were you shown there’s only one way to be successful in business?
And that success is only about notoriety and big bucks?

Yet deep inside, you can’t bare it anymore. Your true self doesn’t just care about numbers and outside recognition.

Maybe you crave Peaceful Success, maybe you don’t want to pressure your team and partners anymore, maybe you want to work from your balcony and at the end of your day you want to feel complete or just satisfied or happy, being fully yourself and doing good for all.

What if your “too much” and “too slow” were sacred rhythms instead of flaws?

A solstice reflection on trusting divine timing and redefining business flow

The solstice teaches us that right rhythm breathes in waves.

And now at maximum light, you know that growth is rarely linear. That it comes with landing and base camp to restore, adjust and realign for the next blooming phase.

Yesterday I was looking at my tomatos in my garden, some still wear green areas… and some are so beautifully red… I was salivating at the thought of a plate of these tomatoes and a burrata for dinner… Are they really ripe? I know from former experiences that my patience and enthousiasm are challenged with tomates. They seem ready, but inside still not fully read, and the taste is not there. And guess what? Rarely they are perfectly round and polished like in the supermarket display. They are full of imperfection and perfectly spotted.

And I realized (again): nothing in nature blooms all year and in the timing we require and in the way we expect it to be.

This year, I’m in a 9-year, like the collective. I can feel deep in my bones that something is preparing. I know I've reached the end of a cycle under the solstice light. I sense the opening of a higher perspective, a different consciousness, a new world. I know major shifts are coming…

A long time ago, I was a machine — overproductive, disconnected. I used to push myself into back-to-back meetings, never listening to my energy. I would plan launches during low-energy phases, say yes too often, and feel guilty when I needed space.
It wasn’t sustainable — and it certainly wasn’t aligned with the way I wanted to live or lead.

More recently, I found myself doubting the timing again. I was healing from a spiritual ego-trap, and I lost confidence in my divine path and intuitive guidance.
In that space of surrender — by releasing expectations and attachments — I began healing my impatience and building a deeper inner safety.
I realized: when I used to push, things never happened faster. And when they finally did, I was often so drained — riding on cortisol and adrenaline — that I couldn’t even enjoy the moment.

So now — and this has been unfolding for a few years — I’m building a rhythm that supports the human behind the business.
And week after week, I keep refining a rhythm that feels nourishing, not draining.

Creating space for what’s to come

…And I’m not just waiting. I’m upgrading my inner capital and governance, while adjusting the systems that support my day-to-day (work) life.

• New daily rhythm: early creation/writing, conscious break, 9-13am clients, fitness or swimming, conscious break, 16-19 clients, training or creating/writing.

• Waking up with high vibrational adjustment (if I’m anxious or…), falling asleep in contemplation of all that’s already fabulous and over expectations in my life.

• Adding more and more fun, playfull moment with friends and family.

• Tools: AI and automation for invoices, accounting, admin, podcast editing, online booking and sales, etc. All these tools are designed to give me more space, to be in presence with myself, with my clients, and with what truly matters.

I’m in-between, almost ready like my tomatoes. And so, I’m learning to trust the right rhythm and during this in-between, I keep on preparing stuff for the next climb.

How is it for you this year?
How is your patience challenged?
What is this solstice highlighting for you?

Conscious Business is not about doing more

You are not a machine.
You are a current.
And the more you sync with your own energetic tides, the more your business becomes magnetic, spacious, alive.

The future of business isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing what’s true — in the right moment, at the right rhythm.
Even when it looks “too much” or “not enough” from the outside.

Your turn: what season are you in?

🤔 What if your irregularities were intelligence?
🤔 Where do you still try to perform or follow outdated processes?
🤔 What would it mean to create systems that follow your waves?

That’s also why I created the Power Week, as a sacred container for those who, like me, are walking through the in-between.

This is what I’ve been allowing myself lately: to prepare without pushing, to create space without knowing what will fill it, to trust my rhythm, even when it feels unusual.

I’d love to hear from you.
What season are you in right now?
Are you blooming, resting, preparing, questioning, shifting?

Happy Solstice 😎
