Transcripts

Unknown:

Hello, hello, and welcome to the Borealis

Unknown:

experience. I'm your host Aurora, life coach and companion

Unknown:

on this beautiful journey called life, I hope you feel safe, I

Unknown:

hope you feel good in your skin, I hope I can bring you value

Unknown:

with my podcast here. And if that's the case, please make

Unknown:

some time write a review, or leave me a rating on Apple

Unknown:

podcast or Spotify or wherever you listen to this. And then

Unknown:

let's get started. Today I want to talk about entrepreneurship.

Unknown:

And don't worry, you don't have to be a business owner. I

Unknown:

believe we are all entrepreneurs to some degree we can be

Unknown:

employed. And not own our own business. But we have to

Unknown:

organize our life, right, we have to balance out what we

Unknown:

need, what we don't need, we have to organize ourselves in

Unknown:

order to function well at our job, we have to nurture our

Unknown:

relationships, we have to make time for playful times. So that

Unknown:

all takes a lot of organizational skills. And even

Unknown:

more so when you have a business. But not exclusively,

Unknown:

if you have a little family or a big family. Same thing there,

Unknown:

you have to work on logistics, you have to be there for

Unknown:

different parties at the same time. You have to listen to

Unknown:

people, you have to manage people, you have to lead and

Unknown:

guide people. So even as a parent, if you're not working at

Unknown:

all, I feel you have to come up with that as leadership skills.

Unknown:

Otherwise, you're thrown off. So entrepreneurship for everybody.

Unknown:

Ah, what I'm learning right now is that when you are a

Unknown:

solopreneur then you have to learn how to regulate your

Unknown:

nervous system. When something goes wrong, you have to keep a

Unknown:

cool mind. And you cannot let it affect your whole life. You

Unknown:

cannot let it affect your relationships, your other duties

Unknown:

that you have, because otherwise, shit gets even worse.

Unknown:

So to keep a guru mind is really difficult because when you start

Unknown:

out when you invest money, when you learn to, you know, control

Unknown:

things, but not over control and not micromanage, but manage. You

Unknown:

learn a lot of things about yourself and about the people

Unknown:

around you. You learn pretty quickly who you can trust, who

Unknown:

you can ask for support, and who you can invite into your life.

Unknown:

It's, it's very awesome to see that, you know, there's people

Unknown:

who can simply listen, there's people who can give you advices

Unknown:

people who can give you support. There's people who will not do

Unknown:

either of these things they will not support you not give you

Unknown:

advice, but they will be awesome at inviting you into their

Unknown:

playful world where you can finally relax and recharge your

Unknown:

batteries. But right now, at this moment in time, I have to

Unknown:

give myself all of these things I have to give myself support

Unknown:

advice. And I have to allow myself to be playful and to

Unknown:

relax and to let go. Especially when it comes to the evening

Unknown:

hours. There is no point in problem solving and

Unknown:

brainstorming just before bedtime, because that will cause

Unknown:

to your sleep. And like I love to repeat myself so diligently.

Unknown:

Your sleep is home Lee. It doesn't matter if you are single

Unknown:

and employed and feel like you don't really bring anything to

Unknown:

society. I know you do and I hope that you will see that one

Unknown:

day as well. or if you are a mom of six, or if you are husband,

Unknown:

childless and running a business or employed, no matter in which

Unknown:

position you are, you need your sleep, your body needs to rest

Unknown:

and recuperate. And it is especially your mind that needs

Unknown:

to process and detox from the happenings of the day. Because

Unknown:

the next day, you want to keep going, you don't want to, you

Unknown:

know, feel rundown by Friday, and then need Saturday and

Unknown:

Sunday to feel alive again, you need that consistency of good

Unknown:

sleep throughout the week, and maybe a little bit more over the

Unknown:

weekend. And then you are well functioning. But especially when

Unknown:

you have to regulate your own stress levels, right, I noticed

Unknown:

that when we have our friends or family or girlfriend, boyfriend,

Unknown:

spouse, partner, whatever it is close by, then we can kind of

Unknown:

laugh at a situation, or brainstorm or get distracted for

Unknown:

a little while. But if you are by yourself, we usually tend to

Unknown:

be very, very harsh on ourselves. And to a point where

Unknown:

we get so tensed and so worked up, that we don't serve any

Unknown:

purpose anymore, we become tensed and frustrated and angry

Unknown:

towards ourselves, we beat ourselves up, we regret our

Unknown:

decisions. And then we would even take it out on other people

Unknown:

if they started offering support, right. So it's, it's

Unknown:

incredibly hard. Maybe it's just hard for me, by the way, maybe

Unknown:

you are a bad as entrepreneur already. But when you have some

Unknown:

stresses going on, and you have to be consistent, you want to

Unknown:

see progress, you want to see problem solving, but you can run

Unknown:

yourself down at the same time, you have to play both roles. In

Unknown:

your own world, it is extremely important. And what I'm also

Unknown:

learning is that when we have somebody close by Be it a friend

Unknown:

or spouse or family member, a dog we also can't accept expect

Unknown:

sorry, them to do it all. And then to drag us out of the

Unknown:

quicksand, we have to keep ownership over our stuff that

Unknown:

didn't go down well. And we can invite other people in, we can

Unknown:

share what's bugging us what's frustrating us and ask for help

Unknown:

ask for advice. But we can't overwhelm people with our

Unknown:

problems with our stresses. And I know most of you guys are

Unknown:

listening and you are pretty you know self sufficient maybe to a

Unknown:

point where you bottle up too much. But maybe some of you

Unknown:

girls and guys listening maybe you tend to always try and have

Unknown:

other people take responsibility for your problems and you know

Unknown:

let them make the decision relying too much on people's

Unknown:

opinions and approval or something and we can look at

Unknown:

this and learn how to be more self empowered self actualized

Unknown:

and how to learn and boil down our problems to the very you

Unknown:

know, rational most rational non emotional stage and then from

Unknown:

there we can make really good decisions. I know it is tough

Unknown:

when you know a lot of money is involved or some money you know

Unknown:

if you made a lot of adjustments and saved up some money and then

Unknown:

you invest it into a business or into a project and should go

Unknown:

sideways. It's extremely hard to keep your cool because money is

Unknown:

So much more than just an exchange for services or

Unknown:

whatsoever.

Unknown:

Money really gets, like money problems really get to our core,

Unknown:

it really threatens our existence when stuff is not

Unknown:

going well. So it is it is very challenging, but it is possible

Unknown:

to keep your cool. And to weigh out your options, and to know

Unknown:

that everything will fall into place, eventually. And the

Unknown:

cooler and more clear and calm you allow yourself to be, the

Unknown:

better it's going to go. I know for myself that I used to think

Unknown:

that the more nervous and tensed and forceful I become, the more

Unknown:

I will push through and achieve what needs to be achieved will

Unknown:

solve what needs to be resolved. But by being that way, I harmed

Unknown:

my relationships. And I hurt myself because I became so rigid

Unknown:

and so tough on myself that it was uncomfortable to be in my

Unknown:

skin. And it was very uncomfortable to be in the same

Unknown:

room as me as my partner as my friend as my parents. So it is

Unknown:

well worse, to step back, and to breathe and relax for a moment.

Unknown:

And to distance yourself from the problem to then dive back in

Unknown:

with a fresh mind. Let me see if this is everything I wanted to

Unknown:

share with you. Yeah, I mean, it's not a secret anymore. I'm

Unknown:

building a location for you to meet with me. Where I will offer

Unknown:

mindset coaching, yoga. And my biggest excitement is around the

Unknown:

workshops where I want to gather I want to find women who want to

Unknown:

do this with me where we hold space for men, where men get to

Unknown:

express how they feel. And where women can learn about men,

Unknown:

because I've never witnessed a place like that at all. I will I

Unknown:

will see how I bring this into life. I want to better the

Unknown:

conversation the connection between between people and I

Unknown:

feel the better we understand each other the stronger our

Unknown:

society can be. So fasten your seat belts. I will be building

Unknown:

something really beautiful for everybody was interested and

Unknown:

yeah, it's in the progress and nothing will stop me. Alright,

Unknown:

take really good care of yourself and I will be out there
