There is a particular kind of disorientation that comes from continuing on, from pushing yourself to stay in the version of yourself that doesn't resonate with you anymore.

You can have a good life and still feel deeply unhappy. You can have a partner, a child, a stable job, a comfortable home, an international life, and still have this strange feeling that something is missing. Not missing in the dramatic sense. Not necessarily: I need to leave everything and start again. More like: Why does this not feel the way I thought it would?

I work a lot on myself. One of the topics I’ve been focusing on recently is having fun. Not in the obvious sense of going out or seeking entertainment, but in something much simpler and, for me, much harder: allowing myself to enjoy what I’m doing. That means doing things not because they are productive, useful, or necessary, but simply because I want to. For a long time, this way of approaching life felt almost foreign. I grew up in an environment where hard work was not jus

Alice had a dream. She wanted to relocate to another country and to find a new job. Both at the same time. The challenge was not with the plan itself. The challenge was with the execution.

Returning to work after maternity leave is not a simple continuation. It is a transition. And like most real transitions, it is slower, more complex, and more layered than what we tend to prepare for.

There comes a moment in many professional lives when the role that once felt like an achievement begins to feel constricting. From an external perspective everything might look enviable. You have accumulated experience, credibility, seniority. You know how to navigate your environment. Others rely on you. And yet, internally, there is a growing sense that something essential no longer fits.

A career shift, becoming a parent, moving countries, ending a relationship, returning to work after a break — all of these moments tend to bring uncertainty, doubt, and anxiety. And often, what suffers most is our confidence . You may start questioning decisions you would normally make without hesitation. You may overanalyze conversations. You may fee

Becoming a mother is a major life transition — biologically, emotionally, socially, and psychologically. It’s common to think we know what to expect when we talk about parenthood: there will be diapers, sleepless nights, feedings around the clock, and new rhythms we’ve never known. What’s less talked about — and less prepared for — are the changes to identity , especially for women after their first child. The sense of self we carried into motherhood can feel shaken, rearran

Balancing work and motherhood is often presented as a manageable challenge, something modern women can master with the right routine, mindset, or productivity system. The reality is far more complex. Most mothers quickly discover that after giving birth, returning to work is not a neat transition. It is an identity shift, a physical and mental strain, and an emotional balancing act that demands more than most people can see.

There comes a moment, quiet or explosive, when something inside us reaches a boiling point. A job that once fit now feels constricting. A role we worked hard to earn no longer reflects who we are. At that moment, many of us feel a powerful urge to start over. Not just to make some adjustments, but to fully drop everything and begin again from scratch.
