Change. Why is is so damn hard and how can we make it a little easier? How do we learn to believe in ourselves and to trust our intuition? Well, one thing I know for sure is that it helps a lot keeping people around you that radiate good energy and that will be there and push you on your way. People that say "You've got this girl, go show the world what you're made of!" Katina Montanos, the founder of blog On Adulting and the podcast Challenging The Collective, is one of those people that pushes me to keep going and who's always there with a big, encouraging smile. This BONUS episode is taken from her podcast where she actually interviews ME, and we cover topics like how to embrace change and how to trust your crazy and bold deciscions, the benefits of a plantbased life and what made me go vegan, as well as the story behind how I ended up where I am today - an ex model running my own agency (how crazy is life??). So tune in for a woman-to-woman fireside chat between Katina and I, on embracing the things we can't change, and fighting for the ones that we can.

Do you care about your health? Do you find it important to work out, eat right and stay mindful and balanced? Then my next question is, have you ever asked yourselves what’s in your clothes? Because if you haven’t, you might wanna start doing that now! Because the truth is that the garments that we wear are filled with tons of toxins and that the skin, which is our body’s biggest organ, will absorb. So how is it that we know so much about the food we put in our bodies, the products we apply on our skin, and the energies we surround ourselves with in terms of co-workers and friends, but no-one talks about the fact that we walk around wearing toxins all day? In this episode with Annette, the Design Director at Ethical & Sustainable active-wear brand Vyayama, we talk about the importance of knowing what your clothes are made of. Not just for your own health but for the future of our planet as well.
