#184 - The Power of Having a Mentor
Hi there and welcome back to another episode. I’m currently working from Sweden - which is my home country - and every day I go for a walk and share an insight on my Instagram stories (if you want to check it out my insta handle is @kristinadreamlifeOn todays walk I was thinking a lot about how mentors had such an impact on my life so I wanted to share the power of mentors with you today.I think all of us should have and use mentors. There are a lot of different ways of using mentors & there is of course no right or wrong way. I just want to share from my own experience - which I believe you will find powerful.Having mentors in your life is a game changer as you learn from others success and failures - and you learn things and make progress so much faster. Enjoy!Love, KKSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#182 – What to Do, When You Don’t Know What to Do, with Kristina
Hi there and welcome back!I'm currently living one of my dreams, and that is I am based in Sweden over the Swedish summer, which is simply amazing. I get to see my family and friends.The reason for sharing that, is that today I want to talk about ‘what to do when you don't know what to do’.Embarking on the journey towards your dream life - whatever that is for you - can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. There are countless possibilities and so many things that we can do, so it's no wonder that many people find themselves unsure of where to begin.In fact, this week we ran a quiz – aimed at helping people understand if they’re on track to living their dream life – and out of nearly 300 respondents the vast majority, 78%, scored low in the "Clear on Where to Start?" category.It confirms my experience, that many people feel uncertain or lack clarity when it comes to taking the first steps towards what they would consider 'their dream life'.I've been there myself - I know how that feels - and I'm excited because I know that I can help by sharing my own experience and knowledge with people.So, listen in and I’ll share where to start…Dream Big!
