The Grit Makers Coaching

Healed. But still hurting sometimes…

We do the work, we go to therapy, we understand our past... but the overwhelm in the present doesn’t always go away.

Not only I don’t like how the “healing” term implies that we’re broken.

But it’s very limiting. It lures you into an endless search for a cure.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “stuck in progress,” this one is for you.

As a traveler, digital nomad or whatever label you want to slap on geographical freedom, one of the biggest treasure is one of our biggest curse.

In between identity crisis, that chase for a home outside of ourself is what’s keeping us lost.

A year ago, I gathered a panel of 3 other people who have lived all around the world and know what it is to leave behind your family, the country where you were born, and embrace a life living out of a suitcase and storage units.

The consensus was real… maybe the solution is in finding a home within…

When you’re misaligned, everything feels heavier.

Choosing your path isn’t necessarily picking the easiest options.

But choosing your hard starts by getting to know yourself better.

How many times you held yourself back?

From sharing how you feel, from even feeling what came at you.

Feeling inadequate and alone in your pain.

Untold stories chain us back.

My memoir is the reminder that we’re not alone in whatever life throws at us.

You can join the waitlist so we remember together.

Success is determined by the quality of our relationships.

Simon’s secret for a long lasting marriage?

Curiosity + Humility + Communication.

This goes for friends, clients, family, colleagues, partners.

The ones worth the commitment and the energy. The ones who are your constant.

The ones that make the true difference, shape your day to day, your person and your future.

The precious relationships who hold you as you are and support change in you.

Tag and share with someone you’re grateful to have in your life ☺️🙏💛

What if you focused on you?

Fixing others isn’t gonna fix us.

Mostly because nobody needs fixing.

Everyone is on their own journey, where of course we can contribute and support.

But it ain’t serving anyone to be a saviour.

Certainly not you.

If you gave up on the idea to change others, what is one tiny thing that you’d change about yourself?

Have you ever survived on crumbs?

The tiny scraps of external validation you convince yourself are enough.

They keep you hungry. Starving.

But they also keep you hoping. And hope is a hell of a drug.

I got very good at surviving on crumbs. In work. In love. In the story I told myself about what I deserved.

It took me years to understand that the problem wasn’t the people offering crumbs. It was the part of me that believed I should be grateful for them.

These days, I ask different questions: “why am I at this table?”

You can’t recognise crumbs until you’ve tasted the whole meal.
