The Phoenix Frequencies

Individual Intention to Collective Coherence: Are you ready for the "Point of No Return"? We all know the drill: the goals we set at the start of the year. But is your intention merely a "quick fix" because you want to escape something, or are you choosing a fundamental transformation?Transformation is like a boiled egg: it cannot go back to its original state. It is new. It is Phoenixed.In the latest episode of The Phoenix Frequencies, I share how my personal intention—focused on connection and co-creation—became a reality within just six weeks. Not by working harder, but by acting from a place of inner coherence. This shift led me directly to the co-founders of the Field Intelligence Tribe (FIT).Starting over with all I bring from my previous life.  As an experience-based professional, I see the urgent need for organisations to become truly "FIT." No longer by simply trying to fix what is broken, but by feeding the Field with a new way of listening and the moral courage to lead differently. That's how an individual intention can transform the world for many into a new paradigm. Are you ready? Check it out at the website of F.I.T. The Field Intelligence Tribe We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves. With Phoenix Frequencies, Nienke van Bezooijen shines her light on what we can do to be the best versions of ourselves based on how we show up and what we are willing to learn. It isn't about showing the way with pretended positivity, it is the heart-based vulnerability-sharing options. It takes courage to rise. See what is for you. Or share with others.  Perfect doesn't exist; curiosity can be the stepping stone to broaden your perspectives. Courage to move on from the past,Trust to be with the present,Rise to create a new future. If you want to be interviewed as a phoenix, write to  heartbraincoachnienke @gmail.com

What do you do when the leadership style that made you successful for 25 years suddenly stops working? Drahomira Mandiková shares her phoenix moment in leadership. A big shift creates an impact in the workplace and is reflected in our personal behaviours as well. That is the Phoenix lesson she brings in this episode: “Sometimes growth is not about adding skills. It’s about letting an old version of yourself burn - so a more adaptable leader can rise.  And today, I know that leadership is not universal. And the most powerful leaders are those willing to be reborn”.About Drahomira:Drahomira Mandiková is the Group Chief Corporate Affairs Officer at Asahi Group Holding, based in Tokyo. Her career in the beer industry began 26 years ago in Slovakia, her home country, and has since spanned roles at the company’s European headquarters, in India, and now in Japan. Her work is driven by a purpose to navigate a shifting business environment by broadening the conversation from short‑term profitability to long‑term sustainability. She brings a global perspective to how companies can remain successful and bring positive impact. In her current role, Drahomira is closely involved in facilitating the transformation of a Japanese company into a truly global organisation—bridging cultures, aligning leadership across regions, and supporting change at the enterprise level. She is known as a connector who brings people together around shared purpose and impact. Drahomíra Mandíková, a senior global sustainability executive, is one of the leaders recognised in Sustainability Magazine’s Top 250 Women in Sustainability (2026) list, ranked 68.

Can you feel the shift? The world we once tried to control is moving beneath our feet. From the crumbling of old-guard power structures to the rigid KPIs that are draining the soul out of our organizations, we are standing in the "ashes" of a collapsing era.But in this episode of The Phoenix Frequencies, we’re not just looking at the debris. We’re looking in the mirror.As the "Old World" struggles with power, greed, and the rise of AI-driven thought, a new movement is breathing. It’s not a "Big Bang"—it’s the Butterfly Effect. It is the subtle, coherent change of direction within each of us that creates a totally different outcome for the collective.In this episode, Nienke explores:The KPI Paradox: Why the pursuit of untamed profits is failing our humanity.Coherence vs. Chaos: How to move beyond "naming, framing, and blaming" to find true heart-centered intention.The Oxygen Mask Principle: Why your personal transformation is the only way to disarm the unsustainable world around you.Mirroring the Shadow: Are you creating from a place of anger and suspicion, or from an unshakeable force of love?It takes courage to be a butterfly for change in a world that tempts you to become a drone. Are you ready to look into the uncomfortable mirror of your own "response-ability"?We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

If you are feeling the density of the world right now—the politics, relationships, work, the stress, or your own health challenges—ask yourself: Am I trying to fight the noise, or am I ready to conduct the music? Destiny is what happens when you stop resisting the density and start leading the collaboration. It’s about awakening the healthy parts of your life—your joy, your resilience, your inner peace from inner ease—and letting them play so loudly and so purely that the 'ashes' of the past simply fall away.Like Nienke saw on her walk this week, a winter forest at dawn, thick with fog and frost. That is density in its purest form—heavy, cold, and obscuring the path. Ice on the ponds, but a ray of light does the mystery work. Alchemy of light, warmth and frost. Does the sunlight 'attack' the fog? Does it 'command' the frost to leave? No. The sun simply rises. As its frequency increases, the density has no resistance. It doesn't fight; it simply resolves. It dissipates because it cannot exist in that higher state of light.From what frequencies are you the conductor within yourself? Density or Destiny is just flipping the letters like a ray of light. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

What is the secret of a good listener? They can hold space: "In the process of rising from the ashes, holding space is the stillness between the fire and the flight. It is the quiet, steady frequency that allows the 'redesign' of a life to take place in a safe and honest environment."  Here is a checklist for you, "Holding Space to Rise".It includes the 7 key steps for clearing your own mental noise, listening for the speaker's "spark," and using silence to help others find the frequency to rise from the ashes.1. Empty the Vessel: Take a 'breath of transition' to clear your own mental noise and biases before the conversation begins.2. Set the Frequency: Intentionally decide to provide a non-judgmental, safe container for the speaker's true self to emerge. Listen from neutrality.3. Honour the Ashes: Practice radical honesty by validating the weight of their struggle without rushing into 'fake positivity' or advice.4. Listen for the Spark: Ignore the 'static' of the story and focus on shifts in energy, tone, and check if it's safe for them to rise or not yet. 5. Utilise Sacred Silence: After the speaker finishes a thought, wait: allow seconds to be silent. Allow the insight to land in the space for both of you.6. Reflect the True Self: Mirror back the strengths or realisations you hear emerging, rather than enforcing the problems being described: non-judgmental, without the focus on yourself.  7. Check the Heart-Brain Connection: Notice if the speaker (or you) is stuck in the head (logic) and gently ask questions, reflections to include the heart (feeling).Are you listening? Or as Manu Keirse describes it—if you think you’ve listened: listen againWe are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

As we look at the world today, we see a rapid shift in the global worldview regarding the pursuit of control. We are moving away from claiming power based on the past and toward an attempt to control a new paradigm—one that is often as substantial as the "emperor’s new clothes."Think of the T. rex: an "eat or be eaten" mentality, focused on controlling everything you dislike. But dinosaurs are extinct. Why? Because they could not adapt to a changing environment.Letting Go of the Illusion you can control all...What happens when you stop focusing all your energy on controlling your life, the lives of others, and the world to fit your personal standards? We often cling to these standards because they make us feel safe, but they are an illusion.While A.I. provides us with truths based on past data, we must remain "fit" to trust our inner knowing and intuition (H.I., or Human Intelligence). We must learn to collaborate rather than relying solely on intellectual understanding.It is collaboration that makes the difference, not control. The goal is to become the conductor rather than the controller. Become a master, Maestro, of adapting to the unknown and the unpredictable mystery of life. Or, you can continue to enjoy your "dinosaur life" until the world shifts even further away.We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

A new year, new intentions. Is that a habitual thing you can let go of, what doesn't work, and create something you love so much it goes deeper and stays real? If you lose weight because you don't like the scale now, be careful, weight might find you again.... Do you dare to change your frequency and step into what is a match for you in this moment? Free from comparison with the past, something you didn't like? Use what really sparks you to create what you love. Enjoy the journey of a new ride this year! Don't set intentions for the reason of setting intentions.

In this last podcast, Nienke invites you to reflect. What gifts did you get from this year, physically, mentally, emotionally spirtually/in behaviours?In an honest share, she lists her gifts for 2025 across all areas. Gifts can occur as setbacks; we can take them as invitations to enjoy? Shift your perspectives?  She ends with an inquiry as a gift to you. If you want, you can get it. Not only during this holiday and gift season, but whenever you want. It's an exchange of gifts for those who like to rise.We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

An existential crisis is a period of deep questioning about life's meaning, purpose, and values, often triggered by significant life events or a sense of meaninglessness, which can lead to feelings of anxiety and distress. Existential growth is the positive transformation that can occur when a person navigates this crisis by reevaluating their life, gaining deeper self-awareness, and aligning their actions with their actual values, leading to increased resilience and authenticity. The crisis is the challenging process of questioning, while growth is the outcome of successfully moving through it. This week, Nienke looks at how a dear friend shifted from existential crisis to existential growth. Also, she faced a life event that created awareness: from 'Impossible' to 'I am possible'. Talent doesn't get affected by physical disease. There is always space for existential growth, no matter what. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Do you know these individuals who are incredibly loyal and work hard for everyone who asks? Those who become very upset by facing resistance tend to take critique extremely personally. But also comfort themselves with compensation food after serving half the world? Like Labradors. Friendly and social – Intelligent and eager to learn – Loyal and devoted – Gentle and patient –Playful and enthusiastic – Adaptable But also: A Labrador needs plenty of exercise and stimulation –Food-driven – Attention-seeking – (Can suffer from separation anxiety if left alone too long)– Boisterous or clumsy – Their enthusiasm can sometimes be overwhelming. Easily bored (if they have to entertain themselves without stimulation).The human Labrador has difficulties with setting and enforcing boundaries; they often love to make others happy, but only until others set a boundary for them. They are so happy to make others happy, it's affecting their self-esteem if ít doesn't work as they envisioned. Then they become disappointed, trying to work even harder to please you by nature until they feel you don't deserve their trust. They try to solve the situations by dominating their desired pleasing outcomes. Being happy feels safe.....There's nothing wrong with the Labrador syndrome as long as there is exchange based on mutual self-worth. If the human Labrador can't find their true inner drive, don't collaborate based on their conditions: don't blame the Labrador, love them with clarity and empowering boundaries.How Loyal are you to controlling the outcome? We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Acceptance is not about giving up; it is about releasing resistance to what you cannot change, so you can move forward with clarity and purpose. While giving up is a cessation of effort, acceptance is a proactive choice to acknowledge reality as it is, which creates a foundation for progress and allows you to respond to challenges with strength and grace. Reinhold Niebuhr's Serenity prayer says it beautifully.God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can,and the wisdom to know the difference.The perception of duality between acceptance and giving up is what we tell ourselves when we are blinded by the 'shouldy, wouldy, couldy' in our desired outcomes. What if the real power lies in embracing a perspective that aligns with who we are today? What if you start collaborating with the creator in you?  Not from what your mind told you by experience in the past, but by creating your future from the now, so you can rise.We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

We can prepare and train ourselves by using virtual reality, a simulator of reality. Like pilots learn to act in all kinds of situations. We all use our human simulator as a re-living play. We act in real time based on what we have learned in the past. Or we pretend that how we show up for others is real. How many VR filters do you put on, an Instagrammable life? We can also use our human simulator in another way. Just add a T to it: a tool, training. In this podcast, Nienke shares how we can stay out of overwhelm and unfiltered stress responses in our bodies. Like many Olympic Athletes do. Get real, from simulation to stimulation. Keep your inner world as fit as you train your outer muscles. That's not ever now and then. It's like brushing your teeth: daily practice, an action to keep the results up to date. Strengthen and stimulate your emotional and mental resilience, physical immune system, and wellbeing consistently — by choice.  We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

This is the 80th episode of the Phoenix Frequencies podcasts, exactly on my fourth anniversary of my re-birthday. It has been an intense ride and inquiry to learn who can stand ánd stay with me. Who can resonate sincerely or pretend by pleasing? Who can hear what I see, even without fully understanding the impact? And the people who can't or couldn't, I can be grateful for the mirror they gave me. I can feel remorseful for the times my view was blurred and I acted as if I was, not what I am, and hurt others by doing so. 80 Episodes..... It's time to move on........Continue to pioneer: acknowledge the ashes, not by re-living them.Thank youfor keeping your faith in me,for not giving up when I wavered.For hearing me in my rising,for choosing openness over judgment.For staying in touch without being asked.For staying close when distanced, silence was easier.Thank youfor your heart that chose to stay with me—from my impossibleto my I’m possible.#anniversary #podcast #phoenix #rebirthWe are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

On International Peace Day, Nienke recorded a special podcast on peace again this season.The elements of peace encompass both internal, personal qualities, such as patience, compassion, and inner tranquillity, and external, societal conditions, including justice, freedom, equity, and well-functioning institutions. Achieving "positive peace" requires a commitment to these factors, rather than just the absence of war, "negative peace".Tuning into the internal elements, she took the angle of elements of Dr Randolph Stone, the founder of Polarity Therapy. Earth, water, fire, air and ether.How do they relate to peace? Nienke brings them to the surface so you can decide for yourself which element(s) you bring together to create Peace. Not only on International Peace Day, but every day. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

In our drive to feel secure, if we know 'for sure' what is going on in all kinds of areas in life, we like to analyse and have a diagnosis from that. Then we want to ensure that we foresee what happens next: A prognosis.     A prognosis is a healthcare term that refers to the likely outcome or course of a disease or injury based on a patient's medical condition, available treatments, and other factors. It is a prediction of what might happen, such as the chance of recovery, recurrence, or the expected quality and length of life.In the past, I got a prognosis that could come to the surface again. A biopsy this week can give an indication, not a certainty to live from.                                                         Because a prognosis is based on general measurements of óther people in the past within the Western healthcare system. I AM not my diagnosis, nor do I live my prognosis. I am in charge, choose not to be a REACTOR to my prognosis, flip the letters of that word, and BE the CREATOR of my life. Worrying is like a rocking chair, it keeps you movin', gets you nowhere.                 How do you respond to insecurities? We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

In the Heart Ambassadors group, Karen refreshed our memories by reminding us of the acronym for AHA moments in life. You might know them as they pop up in unexpected moments that cannot be forced to happen. In the powerful situations of slowing down, they come.AwaresnessBut if you leave it like that, the AHA moment disappears as quickly as it came. HonestyIf you take an honest moment to look closer, the magic can happen. ActionHowever, only if you turn it into an action will the AHA moment flourish in a way that supports you. Evolve, create rather than react. Same letters, different outcome. Pause, what do you notice......? AHA!

In our dictionary, justice is defined as the condition of being morally correct or fair. What is fair? Fair is a perspective. People were sentenced to death, saying the world was round, not flat..... Round earth a conspiracy theory! And people are judged because they don't have the same 'level' of consciousness and therefore they get labelled as stupid or underdeveloped so not worth existing in freedom. We can feel safe and satisfied when we are acknowledged as being 'right'. The loudest people often fear the most. When do we start to dare to grow by mistakes, redefining our perception of truth. What can we learn from the tree Nienke saw in the forest.....

Striving to learn more, know more, reach a high level of... just name it: for the sake of reaching is never long-lasting fulfilment. A quick high and another diploma or certificate on your wall or on your desk. It is searching outside to feel good, be applauded or be respected through your new level of knowledge. Nothing is wrong with learning new things, but is it worth taking a look at your motivation before you fall into the business of training and education, creating a feeling you are lacking something, and more courses will bridge the gap between your current life and your future desire. Starting with the integration of what you already have, before taking a new, satisfying course to soothe your feelings of not being enough yet until you.....Stop outsourcing your fulfilment, start in-searching for what you really want to add to your life.

Sometimes we are given an opportunity to learn. In the moment, we can't always see the real value of the lesson. It could have been very different. It was remarkable how clear my mind went at 5 AM, split seconds to decide what to do and how to stay safe. In the end, what really makes the difference is a broader perspective: who else can we help, and do we see who needs help too? What we take for granted isn't to be taken for granted.......

Recently, Nienke attended a workshop with HeArtist Hannie Wiering in Belgium, titled "Painting Straight from the Heart." She shared this with her HeartAmbassador Heartbuddy, Michael Drummond Davidson, who also loves creating art. In their share, Michael suggested creating a Phoenix Frequencies podcast episode from it. What is art, what is beauty, what does beauty do for the world? All deep questions to investigate, like all HeArtists can relate to, and be judgment-free, calming our inner critic.Michael shared his story and what drives him in this episode last year. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Unchain my heart, let me be. Unchain my heart, set me free.... Joe Cocker.In this episode, Nienke sheds light on what we want to emulate from our parents and what we can leave behind. On their 61st wedding anniversary, her mother gave her husband back her wedding ring, deliberately. Because she wanted him to receive from a warm hand, not a cold, dead one. Six days later, she passed away. Nienke's father chose to take off his ring too, after she died and asked a goldsmith to create something new from both rings.  That same week, Nienke's ring broke into two pieces. After a solid self-investigation, she chose to wear her mother's ring. Leaving behind what wasn't working and creating a new relationship with the past. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves. With Phoenix Frequencies, Nienke van Bezooijen shines her light on what we can do to be the best versions of ourselves based on how we show up and what we are willing to learn. It isn't about showing the way with pretended positivity, it is the heart-based vulnerability-sharing options. It takes courage to rise. See what is for you. Or share with others.  Perfect doesn't exist; curiosity can be the stepping stone to broaden your perspectives. Courage to move on from the past,Trust to be with the present,Rise to create a new future. If you want to be interviewed as a phoenix, write to  heartbraincoachnienke @gmail.com

It's happening more and more in the keynote and TEDx speaking world: the use of AI, such as ChatGPT, to create talks and keynotes. Many people think it sounds more professional, slick, smooth or attractive.                                                                In the E.A.S.E. Method, Nienke and her team use for coaching speakers globally, the words you use create only 10% of the impact you want to gain. The rest relies on how you use your voice and your body language. If you only focus on the 10% ánd give it fully in the hands of AI, you won't get where you want to be. Because: who is delivering the 'perfect AI-generated' words? YOU! Not ChatGPT. If you combine your IA support with your heart's intelligence, it will be YOU who is speaking. And that's the real impact.How this works, Nienke shared some years ago  in her TEDxTalk How to walk your talk.You can find the Presentation-Master team hereWe are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

If trauma is the result of your capacity to handle life events, we can all see traumatic scars within ourselves. The triggers, the behaviours to feel and stay safe. Working hard to cover up the painful results. That's not wrong, that's trying to handle storms, big ánd small, in our lives. Trauma can be piled up and stored in a box in the fridge (or even deep freezer) until we are ready to be with it'... But our bodies respond. It can lead to dis-ease, illnesses, and mental and emotional disruption with long-lasting impact. We can get trapped within ourselves. The stuckness often hurts and frustrates, often, the most.  A Post Traumatic Dis-order.How about Post-traumatic Growth, PTG?  The possibilities to apply the tools that come from within, not from outer circumstances. How would your life look? With today's global violence, destruction and creation of fear, there can be an option that unlocks the strain of trauma and creates a future of growth. What if you can open the box of self-absorption that trauma creates, and you can use the tools that shift you: From the repeating trauma story to a radio station that plays what supports your growth? What would you choose to listen to? We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

In this episode, Nienke shares part two of her interview with Guru Lama, who has possessed an extraordinary ability to heal and uplift those around him since childhood. It took nearly a decade for him to find his right teacher, or guru.  Not all are a right fit, many people see themselves as a guru, but from a high spiritual ego. Guru Lama also shares how to prepare ourselves to be without the internet. To trust, we can communicate with our ancient proven style: our inner Bluetooth, or antennas. How would you live without the internet? Do you still have a profession?  Do you know how to use your capacities to communicate over longer distances than the physical ear can reach? How would your life look like? Do you even dare to imagine being cut off from modern technology? You'd better prepare, that day or time might be sooner than we think. Are you ready for the fitting frequencies? Guru Lama teaches and trains people at the Shambhala Temple and leads retreats at sacred places with Shambhala Inner Peace Tours.We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

From Ghosting to Hosting, a powerful conversation is just a change of one letter. Ghosting is used as a skill to control a situation through social (non)interaction, aiming to dominate or overpower it. However, people who think they need ghosting as a solution simply haven't yet discovered the social and emotional intelligence toolbox. Ghosting is in the same field as naming, framing, blaming or shaming: creating social pain to feel like a winner. What do you do when the heat is on in a business relationship or even a friendship? Ghosting or hosting a conversation that doesn't leave scars afterwards. Instead, hosting a closing conversation that leaves both sides valued, seen and heard without hurting on purpose. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Nienke and Guru Lama met each other through the TEDx Fiesole event and instantly noticed that they both serve through frequencies. From that moment, they stayed in touch. Nienke and the Monk had a long conversation that Nienke made into several episodes op the Phoenix Frequencies Podcasts. Guru Lama often gets the question 'What religion are you from? He answers with a smile: Our religion is compassion.He followed his soul's mission, his Karma, as he left his successful professional life to embark on a path of healing and spirituality. Since childhood, he possessed an extraordinary ability to heal and uplift those around him. His presence radiates peace, and his wisdom has transformed countless lives. As a Guru Lama, he teaches and trains people at the Shambhala Temple and leads retreats at sacred places with Shambhala Inner Peace Tours. Recently, they created a survey as a soul journal to help heal the wounds of what seems to be the new epidemic: loneliness. Globally, the Shambhala monks are available for free to support those who need connection and healing. https://bit.ly/Healing-the-wound-of-loneliness-survey We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

What if we can see people pleasing as a smart protection mechanism rather than a weak character? With the sugarcoated behaviour, it's a way to feel and stay emotionally safe. Often learned by painful life experiences. It looks good, it feels better than reality. Like a painkiller. But what are you suppressing and at what cost? Health, relationships and feeling drained......Nienke grew up in a people-pleasing environment and found her way out: cold turkey. She found out that what she wanted and searched for wasn't what she needed. People pleasing isn't an identity; it's a survival mode you can change. Like changing your diet and setting yourself free. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Experiencing pain is always a message. Often, we don't like the way pain communicates. We are conditioned to get 'rid ' of pain, soothe pain, or kill pain with painkillers. Or we over-identify with pain, like with tiredness or diseases. I am tired, I am ill. No, you're not. You feel tired, you feel dis-eased.  What if pain is not an enemy but an ally? In this podcast, Nienke shares the different options for trying. To be at ease with dis-ease. To be partnering up with pain to get free from the fighting mode. That isn't for everyone, but you can practice and see what fits you. Just as another option to explore.  We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Over the last few months, Nienke has worked with 20 people to prepare for their TEDx Talk. To be Heard to be Heart at the same time. BE ready. Staying with your true message and true to your authentic self wasn't easy for all. Going into their topic, their story as a deep dive was an unexpected gift for many of the speakers to rise above the past. But life had a personal gift for Nienke as well, she shares in this podcast. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

This week, Nienke tunes into the sudden death of her energy work role model and old friend. At first, there was a massive magnitude of shock, grief and pain. Why her, not me? That question isn't to be answered nor relevant. It just is. Grief.Soon, that shifted: D showed she wasn't 'gone', and the connection didn't change. The overwhelm shited into gratitude. Grief and gratitude are on the same page; they are bridged by Love only.  Unconditionally.Sometimes, the loss of a friend, while still alive, can be more painful because that's a deliberate choice. Damaging the friendship by choice because unconditional is too difficult. When the heat gets on, the truth comes out. We all have the choice of how to BE with that rather than react to it. Then, grief and gratitude can be on the same page, while alive. This podcast is a tribute to Daphne Prieckaerts.  We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Today, exactly five years ago, in the first week of the total COVID Lockdown, Nienke started her 25 sessions of radiation therapy—a team collaboration to freeze the brain tumour growth. Everything has changed since. But this year, a friend reminded her of this five-year win. This year, it wasn't part of her life anymore, and thát was worth an even bigger celebration. Nienke imprinted herself for years, TEDx coaching wasn't her strength anymore, despite the hundreds she supported to the red dot. But when she was asked to support a large TEDx event in Italy in May, she overcame herself and said yes. Inspired by the event's theme: Renew, recharge, sustain: renewed humanism. She shares in this episode of Phoenix Frequencies podcast why that's a fit with Nienke now. She walks her talk! We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

If you are travelling, do you carry your whole closet with you? Summer and winter clothing, sportswear ánd bathing suits? Or do you choose what is appropriate for your journey? In her coaching, Nienke sees many mental hoarders. Clinging on to what they don't need to take with them all the time. You can tickbox your travel list and choose what you need and want to take with you. Leave behind what doesn't serve you any longer. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

It's two months since her mom's passing, and Nienke and her father spoke a lot at that time. Creating space to bring back memories. When memories are shared over and over, they turn into stories. The story about the memory... Those stories can be helpful or block you. They always have deeper roots in what you liked or disliked when the memory was created. From there, you can choose to live that story and let that story run your life. Nowadays, world leaders live a story and create a world around them. It is up to us to stay conscious about that. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Cut the Crap is, in English, a direct way of telling someone to stop saying things that are not true or not important: 'Just cut the crap and tell me what is really going on'. Playing around with words, Crabs belong to the subphylum Crustacean, the largest group of marine arthropods; most crabs move sideways, walking on four pairs of legs and holding their two legs with claws away from their body. They shed their hard shell, which would otherwise prevent growth. When the safe shell becomes too tight, it is time to create something aligned with their growth. Humans often don't dare to grow that way. We don't like change. When things get too tight in our emotional life, we keep moving sideways and take painkillers, food or other southing things to make us feel better. In this podcast, Nienke shares how shedding what isn't serving you any longer is key to moving on without repeating yourself.  We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

When life seems to hit us 'again' with setbacks, pain, grief, hurt, feeling misunderstood, and alienation, we can confuse resilience, which involves powerful bouncing back, with taking response-ability. We can take a look at our patterns. What might have helped us in the past is no guarantee that the present or future will be the solution to get out of your setback. In this podcast, Nienke shares the difference between bouncing back, repeating yourself, and the other choice you have. She shares her real-life examples of how she phoenixes. No matter how hard life seems to hit us, we always have the choice to respond in a way that serves us now rather than what served us in the past. That's the difference between feeling lost, falling through space without any grip, or flipping the coin from fear to freedom. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

2025 started already with many dynamics, such as wildfires, ceasefires, impeachment, and inauguration in polarization. In non-violent communication techniques, we can see that we act and react based on deep needs. Fight, Flight Freeze or Please modes have their roots in deeper needs. Sometimes, a third-party or helicopter view technique can help us see what is really going on. However, Heart-based meditation can also show us the way. The fact stays: we have a choice in responding to circumstances and life events around us and in us through the inward or outward path: meditation or mediation. There is just one letter different in that word from mediation, bridging with the T of towards or togetherness. We all have a choice in how we create 2025. Inward or outwards or embrace both.Through what lens are you creating your 2025?  We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

It has been weeks without time and space since December 17th 2024, for Nienke. Once again, she stepped into the transition doula frequencies. December 23rd, in the morning, her mom left her physical body. Very gentle and peaceful, she blew out her candle of life. In the days before, Nienke saw first-hand the power of unconditional love between her parents, even in the transitional moments. How her mother surrendered and relaxed in the presence of her husband. Although her relationship with her mother wasn't a paved path, stepping into unconditional love facilitated its healing. R.I.P.

What are the characteristics of your country of origin, in Nienke's case, the Dutch DNA? Well-known for concurring the water, creating land from sea and rivers by building barriers like 'dijken', dyks...  Or, during the Hanza's time, the trade line from Belgium to the Baltic states.... Trading the feminine way, exchange, non-violent. We had that culture until the first Brexit, when trading became a trick for expansion and slavery. The wealth at all costs, no matter the dehumidification of whole populations. Excuses are so hard to express; humbleness is a failure, it seems, in the Dutch DNA. Nowadays, we can test what other cultures are in our DNA. We made human borders, but we are a mixture anyway. What DNA do you want to let shine in your expression and your behaviour? We can transform our DNA if we dare to do so.We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

To celebrate her re-birthday, Nienke went to South Korea. On a two-week, intense trip, she met real Koreans. She saw the contradiction within the country and the people. The DNA of harmony, respect, exchange, and growth is overgrown by the most toxic feeling we can have: shame. The devastating effects of trying to outsmart everybody to avoid shame are the lowest birth rate in the world and the high suicide rate among elderly people. But there is hope. In this first episode of season 3 of the Phoenix Frequencies, Nienke shares her perception of where she saw the signs of change. Shame is a virus that circulates rapidly around the world, creating chaos and polarization that destroys more than we can predict.  We all can stop it by using one element, and if you do, shame can't survive. Do you dare to use it? We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

When history seems to repeat itself. When you see yourself hitting the same wall, reacting as always: defensive, creating your own truths, searching outside yourself to let others make you feel better, avoiding the point of no return? Nienke can see life looks like a history repetition, but after her point of no return three years ago, she stopped the attitude that seemed resilient but, in reality, was bouncing back. The point of no return gave her a portal to Phoenix. While phoenixed, there is no return possible. It takes courage to transform the reactor in you into the creator: the same letters, different frequencies.

Nienke is counting down the days until her trip to South Korea. Part of her trip will involve visiting the demilitarisation zone (DMZ) between North and South Korea. Peace is not the absence of war but an attitude toward peace. Peace seemed hijacked by happiness in the last century, but we need to elevate our Peace attitude further than that. In Self-leadership, the practice of pause and feeling is a skill to develop. To develop the courage to pause before responding. So we can respond with response-ability. Peace isn't just the SDG 16 of the UN. (Goal 16 is about promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, providing access to justice for all and building effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels. People everywhere should be free of fear from all forms of violence and feel safe as they go about their lives, whatever their ethnicity, faith or sexual orientation). We can start with ourselves, without any money investment: with the peace attitude, learning to pause and listen to ourselves and other, neutral. Leaving the hunger for applause beside you. Starting to feel grateful for what you can, with compassion for what you can't yet and care for what is to come. Be an example. Make peace a verb.   You can join Nienke on the GCI app and learn more about the peaceful impact you can make at any timeSpecial thanks to  Sheva Carr the Fyera Foundation, Dr Scilla Elworthy, Gert Olefs and Daeyoung KimWe are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

How many certifications or diplomas degrees do you need to become who you are? How do you show up, and what do you think your identity is? Who are you?

Due to what comes our way in life, we create our perceived perception as 'the truth'. By creating our truth, we keep ourselves safe from feeling hurt, disappointed or insecure. It predicts how we listen; it shapes our actions. We create our self-protection limiting beliefs. But life will give us the same situations until we learn and transform because there is only the truth we created. Maybe you don't get what you want until you see you create what you need, in order to shift. By taking her armour down and looking under the soil to the roots, Nienke discovered nothing was true; it was only a perspective.  Being self-honest and putting your vanities aside is the most intimate place you can go. It can be the most fruitful one as well: to rise. We are all responsible for how we show up in the world, to others, ánd to ourselves.

Worrying and overcare can sneak into our lives like invited, unwanted guests. When they show up, we can give them the attention they ask for or send them away. Thank them for coming, and they are no longer needed. Nienke had the opportunity, based on possibly concerning yearly tumour check-up results, to choose between worrying and overcaring and starting a new collaboration based on what is serving her now. She chooses the new.
