An insatiable hunger to challenge the status quo
Born and raised in a charming university city called Leuven, by a Belgian mother and a Chilean father, but always felt more like a Citizen of the World.
From a very young age, I was a justice-driven kid with an insatiable curiosity about how the world works..
I remember getting frustrated when ‘Why’-questions were answered with ‘That’s just the way it is.’
Why do we set ourselves these limitations and why are we ok with it? I NEVER got that.
I never felt like just giving up on fighting for growth and improvement of the status quo.
Seemingly unrelated passions
- psychology, meditation, plant based-living and crypto-currencies-
2006
Completed my Bachelor's degree in Psychology, travelled to India and stayed in an Ashram for five months, where I meditated around three to ten hours a day. People thought I had gone loco; I was okay with that. It changed my worldview and perspective on how to heal mental and physical disease. The dry Western approach had become too narrow and outdated for me.
2007
Worked odd jobs, travelled around the world and got certified as a plant-based chef and meditation teacher.
2017
Opened up my own plant-based breakfast and lunch bar, together with a fantastic business partner. We gained a Certificate of Excellence on Tripadvisor in our first year -insert proud moment-.
Life bar
2019
Sold my part of the restaurant, travelled back to India to dive deeper into the Ancient Yogic teachings.
Also started learning more about financial mastery, precious metals and cryptocurrencies.
Created the Becoming Unfuckwithable course.
My seemingly unrelated passions have one thing in common: they’re all disruptive technologies, providing you with tools for self-mastery.
I believe that for centuries we’ve been robbed from our inherent abilities to question the status quo, to heal ourselves, to connect authentically, to balance life’s opportunities (which often present themselves as challenges) and to thrive towards our highest creative potential.
You’ve got hardware (physical body) and software (mind and soul).
Both need totally different updates.
Nowadays there are tons of programs to update your physical body through different kinds of workout programs and nutritious food... But when I looked around for an accessible framework to uplevel our body, mind AND soul, embracing both modern science and the original wisdom teachings... I couldn’t relate to any of the approaches available.
Some focus solely on modern science, leaving out vital parts of the original ancient teachings and vice versa. Some approaches focus only on self-love and self-care, leaving out the essential part that we sometimes need some tough love and a kick in the butt to keep on going in our quest. And then there are mindset (often business related) programs that are all about the ‘hustle’ culture, which obviously isn’t a sustainable model either.
So… I decided to design the becoming unfuckwithable framework as a road map towards lasting fulfilment by taking care of ALL 3 pillars of life; physical, psychological and spiritual. Body - mind - soul.
Look, if there’s one message I want you to know, it’s this one
If you’re sensing there’s more to life than meets the eye and conventional answers
to your questions never seem to satisfy you
> fist bump <
Let me tell you something exciting:
This can be the beginning of a whole new journey for you.
Because never forget: you can reinvent yourself at any given time.
You’re capable of so much more than you can possibly imagine.
You just have to learn to move out of your own way.
Follow the path of things that excite you, things that make you slightly nauseous and push through them, because on the other side lies true growth and it’s utterly delicious.
What my promise is to you
You’ll never hear me claim to know all the answers.
I’m hugely flawed, experience off-days and once in a while I have a little dance with fear and self-doubt, just like any human being. But my mission is to bring you the very best of what I’m living and learning while having fun along the way.
What you can expect are thought-provoking ideas, honesty soaked in love and dedication to provide you with actionable tools to practice radical responsibility, to gain the courage to become the best version you can possibly be, so you can start excelling at anything you set your mind to!
I honor you for considering taking the step of investing in your future through a collab with me and look forward to supporting you on this adventure.
I believe that joy, fun and play are seriously undervalued in our society.
° I love being the first one to dig into an untouched butter or jam.
° Walking on brown autumn leaves and hearing them crunch underneath my shoes makes me crazily excited.
° Eating potato chips whilst drinking tea and watching some good quality stand-up comedy soothes me.
° Sometimes I laugh louder than the norm, luckily I never unlearned that trait.
If you don’t like the movie ‘Le Fabuleux Destin d’Amélie Poulain’, we probably can’t be friends ;)
