Earlier this week, I organized a small meetup.

Two women showed up.

And you could think: “Only two?”

But what happened in that café was pure magic.

We sat down as strangers.
We left feeling seen, understood, recharged.

The conversation flowed effortlessly into deeper topics — life transitions, belonging, identity, friendships in a new country. No small talk. No pretending. Just honesty and warmth.

When I walked home, I felt full of energy and joy.

And that is exactly why I created Soulful Sisters.

It’s never about the number of people in the room.
It’s about the quality of connection.

✨ And this is exactly the feeling you can experience at our upcoming Soulful Speed-Friending next Saturday.

A space where you meet other women who “just get it.”
Where conversations go beyond “So what do you do?”
Where meaningful friendships can begin.

✨ I don’t make friends for a season — I make them for life. ✨

I just got back from a 3-day trip to Brandenburg with a few of my closest friends. We’ve known each other for over 12 years, but we don’t all live in Berlin anymore, so spending this uninterrupted time together meant everything.

We walked. We talked. We laughed until we cried. We cooked and shared beautiful meals.
It was simple… and so deeply healing. 💛

What blows my mind is:
I met every single one of these women right here in Berlin.
We were all expats. All searching. And somehow we found each other.
Even after so many years, and even from different corners of the world, we’re still connected.

And this is why I created Soulful Speed-Friending —
To give you the chance to meet someone who might just become part of your life for the next decade or for the rest of your life.

💬 Think speed-dating, but for soulful friendships. One-on-one chats, real questions, cozy vibes, and maybe, just maybe, your future Berlin bestie.

You don’t need to know anyone. You don’t need to bring anything.
Just bring your open heart.
And let’s see what happens when women meet, heart to heart. 🤍

✨ Soulful Speed-Friending is back! ✨
But first, let me tell you a little story…

Last weekend, I went to a “house-cooling” party. At least this is how we called it 😆 One of my dearest friends is leaving Berlin for good. After repainting her apartment, she invited her closest circle to gather one last time.
We were laughing, singing, dancing, oh my heart was full. 💛

Here’s what hit me:
Every single one of those amazing women I met because I once stepped out of my comfort zone.
Two of them I met at a random meet-up — I was just looking for connection, for friendship. And somehow, miraculously, I found it.
More than 10 years later, they’re still here. 💫

That’s why I created Soulful Speed-Friending.
To give you that same chance to show up, to connect — and maybe find someone who’ll still be in your life a decade from now.

🗓️ Date: October 4, at 11 am
📍 Location: Uppers Coworking, near Mehringdamm, Kreuzberg
⏰ Format: Think speed dating – but for soul-deep friendships.

One-on-one chats, thoughtful prompts, laughter, hugs, and real connection.

No small talk. No pressure. Just a space to be your full self, meet amazing women, and feel like you belong.

You don’t need to have joined Soulful Sisters before. Just come. Just try. 💕

Last weekend was intense.
Two big events, one day.
The IamExpat Fair—an incredible space to connect with fellow entrepreneurs—and the 5K Vitamin Well Frauenlauf, which I ran with four amazing Soulful Sisters.

We had been training, we had matching hats, we were ready.

Only a few weeks before, I realized both events were on the same day.
Old me would have tried to squeeze in both at full speed and enjoy neither.
But this time…I chose differently.

I showed up briefly at the fair, then left in time to warm up, laugh, put on matching lipstick, run, and celebrate with the women I’ve built real connection with.

Because here’s what I’ve learned:
When you know your values, it’s easier to choose.
And for me, community > hustle.
It doesn’t mean I don’t care about my work—I just don’t want to miss out on what matters most while chasing it.

If you ever feel torn between options, maybe it’s not about doing it all—maybe it’s about doing what aligns.

I’m planning a workshop on discovering your core values soon—because decisions get easier, gentler, and more you when you know what you truly care about.

Would that interest you?

Yesterday I went back to my workout class for the first time in nearly two weeks.
I had been sick. I was out of rhythm.
And honestly? It was hard to show up.

My muscles hurt today, and I almost canceled. If it hadn’t been booked weeks ago—and if a friend hadn’t been counting on me (thanks 🙏)—I probably would have stayed home.

But I’m so glad I went.
Because now, I feel stronger. My body feels more alive. The motivation is back.

It reminded me: starting again is always the hardest part.

Even when we’re returning to something familiar, it still takes courage.

So here’s to small restarts.
Gentle accountability.
And remembering how good it feels once we begin.

What habit do you want to gently return to this week?
