Well...migrating from Belgium to Panama was not just a youthful dream, but a profound life change for me. After dedicating 15 years to a successful corporate career in project management, people management, process improvement, and business development, I decided to embark on a new journey that would align more with my passions and values. In Panama, I transitioned into the role of a well-being coach, meaning: Qi-Gong teacher, Reiki healer, Nutritionist and Phytotherapist (herbal medicine).
This change did not come suddenly but was simply waiting for the right moment. My passion for martial arts started after watching Bruce Lee's movie, 'Enter the Dragon', making me join an Atemi Jitsu club. But it was more than just the action that attracted me, I was intrigued by the mystery surrounding Eastern societies, the different ways of thinking, and the rich history. A few years after graduating from university, I encountered Japanese Kaligrafy, Chinese medicine and Qigong, around 2010, marking the first step in my journey.
I decided to pursue the healing and balancing part of Chinese medicine (Qigong), and Japanese nutrition (Okinawa lifestyle) & healing practices (Reiki, meditation & breathwork). Being a 'foodie', I later added European nutritionist studies, naturopathy and Phytotherapy (herbal medicine). The last study I finished was Bio-relaxation, which helps balance the human stress/relaxation equilibrium.
Alongside my work as a well-being coach, I have also pursued my passion for writing. As a freelance writer, I contribute to several renowned publications, including Perfect Daily Grind, MTpak, and Standart magazine. And of course, I am very proud of our speciality coffee bar; 'Mounelli'.
Migrating has been and still is a big challenge on many different levels. And I admit that I sometimes find myself missing my Volvo and the luxurious lifestyle that accompanied my corporate job. But the feeling that overtakes me, when a person I am treating re-discovers their inner joy/Self or starts healing, is a feeling I still cannot describe or value. It is a feeling no car or luxury could ever give me. The fact that I am now living a life that truly resonates with my authentic self, has made me richer than ever before.
