Are you a lover of language and complexity? Do expressions like “Frugal Prosperity” make you smile not frown? Because you know what an oxymoron is (or if you are not 100% sure, you’ll quickly check in the dictionary or rhetorical book on your shelf).
Have you pursued and deepened several more or less eclectic topics of interest since you were small?
You probably have one (or several) university degrees. Still, you also have taught yourself lots as an autodidact — because then you can go at your own accelerated and non-linear pace. You have knowledge and skills in quite a few areas, but for some, you may have a hard time proving it because there is no diploma.
You are probably in the second half of your life. And even if there is still so much to learn and explore.
You also know you have so much to give.
You may ask yourself…
How can you make time for all the things you fancy pursuing and experimenting with?
How might you gracefully and efficiently manage all these topics of interest and projects?
How can you “work” and play in a way that makes you good money and fills you with joy, energy, and meaning?
How can you free up space to spend quality time with loved ones?
How can you find time to express yourself creatively as well for self-care and a healthy lifestyle?
Most importantly, how can you share what you have to offer and contribute to making this world a better place?
Hi, my name is Patricia.
I’m a Swiss writer, teacher and mentor for analytical, bright and creative people like you.
What motivates me to create this space is simple. I wish you to
The content I am eager to share has been living in my head for quite a long time.
For people like us, phases of overthinking and procrastinating (or instead keeping ourselves busy with research and procrastivity) regularly alter with flow and creativity that lead to massive productivity and output. Right?
I am very aware of how little I know, even in fields where I could call myself an expert: goal setting and achieving, time and energy management, writing & editing, using your unique strengths to flourish, high sensitivity and “giftedness” in adults.
Did you know…
that attributes like
- a heightened perception,
- the love for the exact use of words (and the urge to correct those who don’t share this passion and can’t see the joy in studying dictionaries),
- an insatiable thirst for learning and improving,
- a strong sense of justice,
- (at times) roller-coaster rides of emotions, and
- extreme (sometimes exhausting) empathy as well as
- a need for precision
do make sense!
Because all the aspects above are correlated to something else… as I found out in 2015 (when I was 45).
Today, it’s still not easy to talk about “being gifted” and what it entails.
If you do other people do or may think that you are arrogant, a know-it-all and believe you are “something better”. Well, they are wrong.
The reason why I chose to talk about it is simple:
I have met too many women who are highly sensitive and/or (non-detected) “gifted” (adults) who have learned to doubt themselves and their judgment at an early age. Lack of understanding about their proper uncommon functioning – shared by their caregivers – gender stereotype expectations and values, and a lack of peers who could mirror them positively are some of the factors that may have contributed.
If this rings a bell, check out here what else might be true for you and what can be shifted.
Are you ready to flourish?
On this site, I want to share information that allows you to
- showing up as the best version of yourself,
- stop dimming your light (aka intellectual capacities and creative power)
- and figure out how to flourish and do your best work instead…
To get there, you want to first
