\ud83e\udd73 I've been at Terra Nova for a year today \ud83e\udd73<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Exactly one year ago today I arrived at Terra Nova. I remember that I really couldn't sleep the night before, because I felt so much tension combined with enthusiasm in my body. I went to bed early, because I wanted to rest for the journey. I had also decided to just drive in one go. When I finally fell asleep around half past twelve, I woke up again around two in the morning. After tossing and turning for an hour, I decided to get out of bed. If I can't sleep anyway, I might as well drive. As a result, I was in the car at half past three in the morning and left for the South of France. A pretty tough drive, I can tell you. That same day I was setting up my tent in the evening. My journey to a completely new life had begun. Where I had convinced myself that I would only go to Terra Nova for the summer, after a week it became indefinite. Who had I convinced that I only wanted to stay for a few weeks? In retrospect, I can see that this was necessary to dare to take the step. Otherwise I might never have done it. And I'm glad I dared to take that step, because it made a complete change.\"een<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Not knowing that from that moment on my life would change completely. Not knowing that exactly one year later I am writing a blog in exactly the same place. Not knowing that I would work as a personal assistant at Robert and for Bridgeman. Not knowing that I would follow the training in transformative coaching and now, on reporting from the lighter life program, have already passed the exams. Not knowing that I would help guide retreats, but I was consciously working on this to realize this. Not knowing that I had so much to clean up within myself, but so grateful that I have entered into all those processes. Not knowing that I would gather a great team around me who will help me to bring my first book - It could have ended differently - into the world. Not knowing that I have such a beautiful mission here on earth that I am so connected to. Not knowing that everything I have experienced in my life was necessary to get where I am now. Not knowing that I would feel so included and welcome in a team of beautiful people, grateful for Robert and Monique that they believe in me so much and gave me this great opportunity. Not knowing that I would have three beautiful brothers in my life. Not knowing that I would meet so many beautiful people. Not knowing that I would create new beautiful friendships, friendships that go beyond this life. Not knowing that I have so many beautiful things to give to this world and that I may stand for them. Not knowing that I would find love at Terra Nova, first love for myself and from there love for Esther, from there love for life, from there love for the earth, love for my mission. Not knowing that now a year later I no longer have the need to want to be another person. I just want to be myself. Not knowing that I would undergo so many beautiful and often intense transformation processes. Not knowing that my parents would now stay here for two weeks exactly one year after arriving at Terra Nova.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I could go on and on about this, but I think the message is clear. This past year has been quite a journey. It feels to me like I have grown by quantum leaps into a more beautiful and authentic person. I feel gratitude and joy. What a year of self-development and depth can bring in many things. I look forward to what is to come, whatever that may be. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
