Authentic Space podcast

Our relationships should be a source of nourishment, not depletion. Decide how close you want to be with those in your life who don’t understand this basic need. It's important to establish the extent of connection you're willing to maintain with those who don't respect or support your personal growth.

Treasure those who respect your boundaries, for they nurture relationships with empathy and compassion. It is ok to prioritise your well-being, even if it means you have to step back from those you love for a certain period of time. Those who love you and truly care for you will understand.

Being a creative person encompasses a diverse range of passions, talents, and abilities that may not always seem valuable in a world that often compartmentalizes us. But it is up to us to embrace the richness of the diverse and multifaceted nature that lives within each one of us. 

Travel is not just physical; it's a deliberate exploration, a quest for enrichment that leads to personal growth, health, and the pursuit of self-improvement. It’s a profound transformation of one's self, a journey that reshapes not only our perspective but also our very own essence.

The people we consciously choose to surround ourselves with accept us without judgment. They acknowledge our unique side and our values. They prioritise mutual respect for each other’s personal boundaries, and support each other’s personal growth. Allowing the space for deeper connections to evolve.

Success isn't a destination; it's a continuous journey of growth, self-discovery, and finding our own unique path. And happiness isn’t the absence of struggles but the acceptance of both challenges and joys. Life's beauty lies in the balance between external achievements and internal contentment.

Embracing struggles and challenges of the journey is far more fulfilling than remaining stagnant in something that no longer aligns with our true nature. While each obstacle may come with its own set of difficulties, it is through these experiences that we discover our resilience and our own strengths.

Build up the courage to step off the edge of your cliff, whatever that cliff is for you. And go after your passions and hobbies. Start there. It doesn’t mean you have to figure it out right now. Because everything is a process, and finding your path is a process too. 

Everyone is on their own life journey. Even if you have people in your life that love and support you it is still your own unique journey to take on. Asking you to grow towards becoming more sovereign and authentic. Enjoy your life but make it worthwhile, don’t waste it on trivial things. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: No matter your upbringing you have a choice to create the life you want to live.

Learning to love oneself is the key component of living a life in harmony. And not in a self-absorbed type of way but in the ability to choose what’s healthy in every situation we’re faced with. But that starts with solid boundaries and learning how to discern what’s healthy for us.  Self-care is critical to our overall wellbeing. It helps us recharge physically, emotionally, and mentally. Engaging in self-care practice helps us cope with life with more ease and awareness. 

For different reasons, the last couple of years have brought about a significant shift in how we perceive the so-called “hustle.” Many of us have dropped a constantly-in-motion way of being to replace it with a slower life. We are definitely moving away from the belief that being busy equals being successful. We are moving away from a culture that glamorizes the hustle towards one that highlights the need of stillness. Balance is everything. Being a hustler and being a complete slow-lifer are two extremes in a spectrum.

Every human goes through their developmental stages just nature goes through its cycles. When we are younger most of us live for the experience and adventure of things. With time we become more refined. Appreciating tiny moments in our existence and knowing what feels more aligned.  Everything has a season, a cycle, a process and the right timing. Don't rush and try to force anything. Allow things in your life to unfold when they are meant to.

When you do something that you love it doesn't feel like work. But every entrepreneur needs to learn how to balance out their life. When you work for yourself what you do becomes your lifestyle. But don’t allow that to be the only part of life. Make time and space for loved ones, other hobbies and passions. Nurture your body, quiet your mind, and spend time doing nothing at all.  Intuition whispers when you least expect it. It comes in the aha moments, when everything, all of a sudden, becomes clear. Don’t be afraid to follow through on those signs and bursts of clear knowing, even if they don’t make sense in your mind. It’s your soul leading the way. 

We think we know our friends, family members, our colleagues, and people around us. But is that always the case?! So many of us are dealing with something. We have soft spots where we feel vulnerable and insecure about certain things, and there are things that trigger us or make us feel scared. Or intimate things and weaknesses we don’t feel comfortable sharing. Sometimes you can say the nicest and sweetest thing to someone but, regardless, it might not land very well. Quote of the episode: Every experience or person come in our lives for a reason, a season or a lifetime. Knowing this changes your whole perspective on how we approach life. And the earlier we realise this, the easier it will be to go through life.

Life is a constant development journey: there will always be triggers that will help you figure out how to evolve, how to change, and how to find the right path for you. But development always requires change. It requires you being ok with letting go of certain things to make space for new ones. Quote of the episode Listen to the voice inside you. Tune out the noise. Connect with your true self. Find your true path.

Is your 9 to 5 job allowing you to be authentic?  Is it supporting you to grow as the person you are truly meant to be? Is it giving you a chance to understand and develop your skills and talents, is it giving you the space to use them in the best way for you? Quote of the episode Always, always follow your dreams and goals. No matter how big or unachievable they feel in the moment. And don’t let anyone steer you away from them. You must dream BIG to achieve BIG! 

We work jobs that are simply draining us... Jobs that we know aren’t good for us, thinking that one day we'll do what we really love. But years go by and nothing really changes. Instead, we allow the circumstances of our life to dictate our path. Build up the courage to break free from that mindset. Stop wasting your precious time and do the things you are meant to be doing. Start right now. And work towards it a step at a time.  Quote of the episode Stop wasting your precious time and do what you are meant to be doing in this life!

Imagine a more relaxed life. Spending time outdoors, enjoying the weather, surrounding yourself with people you love, cherishing each other’s company, and celebrating life. Life is not about constant stress, it’s about allowing ourselves to be spontaneous and enjoying tiny moments, places and connections. In this episode, Kasia and Clo talk about the perks of working remotely and much more. Quote of the episode You are a precious being and this is your time to build a life worth living, gaining experiences and collecting lasting memories.

We are all born with a blueprint that shows us our potential. At the same time, we have free will which allows us to choose how we want to it live out. In this short episode, Kasia and Clo discuss the balance between the two. Quote of the episode A big part of your authentic path and knowing who you truly are is figuring out your blueprint. And when you do, life starts falling into place and feels more meaningful and satisfying. And when you do, life no longer becomes about chasing things or surviving but about the evolution of your soul.

In the first episode of season 1 of Authentic Space podcast, you get to meet your new hosts, Kasia and Clo. The conversation starts with the question how can we be more authentic and how can the world become more authentic as a consequence? Quote of the episode We have enough of “perfect” in the world. Everyone is trying to be like everyone else, and no one is actually trying to be themselves. This leads people to become more inauthentic and dissatisfied with their lives than ever before.
