I’m tearing up—this wouldn’t be possible without you. 🌹

2023 has been testing us in so many ways.

I often felt lost, and frustrated. My career went through significant changes (more about that here.) And since my podcast is intimately connected to my career, I wondered if what I shared made any sense. But it did 🥹 🫶🏼

I am overwhelmed by the podcast's Spotify 2023 Wrapped results:

• An impressive 83% increase in new listeners.
• A stellar 5.0 podcast rating with consistent sharing.
• A remarkable +7,000 total global downloads; the top countries: USA, Germany, Switzerland, and France <3

Talking about the hard topics so publicly when your life feels upside down is challenging. But it's what moves the needle. And most importantly, I don't do it alone:

My guests and co-hosts are huge contributors to this success: Thank you for sharing your stories so courageously, generously, and authentically. ❤️

And you—all the listeners✨who keep showing up, spreading the word, and connecting me to incredible thought leaders. This wouldn’t be possible without you! ❤️

My mission is to help us tap into our unique gifts through personal transformation. We change our lives when we tap into our authenticity, and share our transformative experiences.

I believe that when we elevate ourselves, we elevate our businesses and society.

Together, we are normalizing what it means to work and live from a place of deeper purpose. We enhance our ability, confidence, and hope to build a better future.

I am overwhelmed with gratitude to be on this journey with you.

Thank you,

Helena
