Building a Healthier, Stronger Version of Me Over the past few weeks, I made a commitment to start becoming the best version of myself for the next year, or even from now. Yesterday, I finally took the first real step, I went back to the gym for the first time in a very longtime. And this morning, when I woke up, something felt different. I felt motivated. Energized. Ready to go back again, not because I had to, but…

Giving Grief a Voice I did it, I finally recorded the podcast episode I was scared off. The one about grief and loosing my dad. For so long, I’d carried this weight silently, thinking I had to handle it alone, thinking that speaking about it would make it too real. But putting those feelings into words made space inside me. It was as if a tight knot I didn’t…

Mahalo Stockholm So the other day me and Caroline took a break from the kids and had lunch in the city. First we had a nice walk through Södermalm with a vanilla matcha in our hands before we ended up at Mahalo for lunch.  Mahalo is a 100% vegan cafeteria/lunch place in Södermalm, Stockholm. We both decided to go for their "PEAS & LOVE" with falafel, hummus and…

Dream big work hard Today me and Caroline had a workday, we pre recorded an episode for our podcast, worked on our homepage and had fun at the same time. I love those days when I go away from home to work and I love working with Caroline, because we get so much work done, and it doesn't even feel like we are working. We are a truly match…

I love those days when it feels like you've gotten so much done that just been on…

A new me I go into this autumn with an all new attitude to life. I am here and I'm going to succeed in every way I possible want and can! Its always around the autumn that I start to long for my old life in Gran Canaria, the warm weather, the ocean, the sun! I spent 6 years on that island, 6 amazing but also hard years…

One thing is for sure; I live in the wrong country!But even though I know the season is about to change, I so look forward to work on my self, on all levels, next summer…

Night thoughts Its Friday evening, way to late actually, because I know the girls will wake up early tomorrow, but I can't help myself to sit here on my sofa and just think. I been scrolling on instagram too much this evening, and even if I know its bad, I been comparing myself with others, wondering why I don't live that life, have that dress, look like…

It’s okey to feel down It’s been to long again, this time it’s because my computer is broken and it’s not as easy to write from my phone (but today I’ll do it anyway). I just sat down reflecting because I’ve felt low both today and yesterday and I realised it’s because the kids starts school again in two weeks and I know it’s not tomorrow but I can’t help…

Camping in Falsterbo We are back from our holiday in Skanör, Falsterbo, and it was totally amazing! The first few days the rain was pouring down like crazy, but we did the best of the situation. We was 3 grownups and 9 kids, so we couldn't just sit in the tent and wait out the rain, so we spent time in the mall, driving around in the car…

Thoughts about blogging Hi there, To be honest I have had a hard time knowing what to blog about, it's a bit scary to be back on the internet when you've been gone for a long time. When I had my fist son (he is 17 now) I used to blog about my life and then it went on to youtube before I decided that I didn't want…

Focus on the positive and positivity will come your way You can't live a rich life while being negative and ponder. I used to think it was easier said than done letting go of what doesn't serve you, stop pondering about what to come and what could have been different, my life was more worry than living. But it actually is easy, just by starting to focus on what I'm grateful for my life became…
