Surrender, to the waves of life

As time strikes by, with colder temperatures, breathtaking sunsets of purple, pink and blue skies filled with the angels paintings, I am walking around with a head full of what there is left to do besides working full time, yet having to get ready for my road trip. Today, I felt quiet and restless, excited yet anxious and free while still being caged. Yes, many dualities and how can we hold them graciously together?? 

Having Faith and Trust in the process, sit with both feelings and ask where did stories start to develop, what is it that makes me feel this way, but then again, what and where does the truth lay within me and where do I want to go from here? 

Sometimes it’s for grabs and sometimes it may take a day, days weeks or months to have that “oh yeah” moment that liberates our soul! Today i spoke to one of my beloved healing coaches/teachers, and said to her….wow, look where we are, I am and where we are going, all of this would have not been possible without surrendering and trusting the divine process. 

A year ago I asked a friend, help me figure out what “surrender to the …” means….I had no clue and within a year, it’s all I do to unburden myself from long-lasting trapping thoughts that didn’t get me anywhere! What was my word? Well…perfectionism, what and how did that weigh so heavily on me and why? Lineages and lineages, both before and after me, will also have to release this unrealistic expectation of ourselves and others. Unconditional love will never exist without redefining unconditional love for self! Eventually we will go in depth of this word as it’s truly something you see on tv, in magazines, billboards and what you may have taken away from your family and/or background. 

As I took a walk on the beach with 55 degrees this Sunday, I felt the need to be alone and ground myself to where I felt solidly one with Mother Earth. Her sand slid through my toes gently while my Achilles heel had trouble pushing itself out of the wet sand. Waves crashing while a few sun rays, miles away, appeared to show their attendance to what they were just about to witness. Here I sat in wet white granular sand, weeds, ocean greens and shells, thinking what is it I need to learn today? Life comes and goes like the waves, sometimes gently and something forceful rocking the ground from underneath. Don’t fear the next wave sweetheart, is what I was told, it’s just life! There will always be another wave so let’s just get ready to take on the next one together! We would never bring you to the next one if we thought you weren’t ready yet! Embrace each experience as they come, they are your medals to keep! Always be your own number 1

A Personal Note from Astrid

Your journey matters. Your healing matters. And you deserve a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood—exactly as you are.

My path has taken me across the world—living in the Netherlands, France, Spain, Curaçao, and the United States—meeting people from every background and walking through my own seasons of growth, loss, and transformation. From sacred temples in India to shamanic and plant‑medicine journeys in Peru, from Toltec wisdom in Teotihuacan to spiritual teachings across Europe and Asia, each experience opened my heart and expanded my understanding of what it means to be human.

What I’ve learned is simple:

You and I are not so different.

Life curves, shifts, and surprises us. It brings joy and grief, clarity and confusion, expansion and contraction. And yet, within all of it, there is always a path back to peace, purpose, and alignment.

That is the heart of my work.

Through intuitive coaching, energetic guidance, and soul‑centered support, I help you reconnect with your brilliance—your courage, your joy, your inner wisdom. Together, we gently release old patterns, clear emotional blocks, and create space for the life you truly want to live.

You don’t have to walk this path alone.

You deserve a guide who listens deeply, sees your potential, and walks beside you with compassion and clarity.

Wherever you are in your journey, you are welcome here.

And I’m honored to support you as you rise into your next chapter—your way, in your timing, with your own beautiful light leading the way.

With Love, Astrid
