It’s a cliche but it’s true… The magic really happens outside of your comfort zone. Now as an expat you have ventured outside your comfort zone already, but maybe you’re staying comfortable when it comes to other things, like changing careers, online visibility, a fitness goal or something else.I regularly step out of my comfort zone (my live event last month was one of those things!) and while it can still make me nervous from time to time, I also know this practice has been the key driver of my personal & professional growth.In this episode I share 7 quick tips that help make the step outside your comfort zone easier & less scary. Go find some magic!>>> And want to join the first round of my new group programme The Co-Pilot?

>Akanksha is an ambitious management consultant and after two geographical transitions in 3 covid-years, she was left with a bit of a nagging feeling of something not being in place. Originally from India and now based in the Netherlands, she signed up for my 6-month group coaching programme to enable a shift.In this episode we talk about the inner transformation Akanksha had by being able to quiet her inner critic (most days!), with positive results on how she shows up at work & in relationships too. She also shares what she says to herself now and a practice that has become a favourite at the end of the day - plus a lot more. I loved seeing Akanksha's change over the past few months and think her story is a heartwarming testimony to the power of personal growth.And are you interested in joining my next group programme?

How to find your soulmate when you live a somewhat unconventional life as an expat? Do you need to settle and compromise if you want to start a family? Where to begin if you keep moving around? These are some topics I (female, mid 30s, single) have thought about myself a lot in recent years, and some of my coachees as well. Expat life is great but it can also pose a barrier to your love life. In this episode I talk about it with Michelle Chung, a soulmate manifestation coach!Find more about Michelle here: https://www.instagram.com/michellechungcoach/And about me here:https://www.amandamaximecoaching.com

I went on a business & leisure trip to California and left with 3 big insights that led to a breakthrough when I got home 🤩 Insights that I think might be useful for other high-achieving, self-reliant & rational globetrotters.  >These were things I sort of already KNEW, but this time I could really FEEL them. And in order for insights to really change something in our lives or to lead to a breakthrough, we really need to embody them, not just understand them rationally. Truly feeling them has enabled a paradigm shift in me and a breakthrough internally (changes are coming!).I wouldn’t be able to have experienced these insights so profoundly if it weren’t for the people around me on this trip. Because alone you can go far, but together you can go much further - and deeper. That’s why I’m also so excited about my own upcoming live event in Amsterdam on 28 September!Join us for a fun afternoon of coaching and leave with valuable insights, renewed energy and a bigger network of like-minded people. Tickets are limited (about 10 left), sign up here: https://www.amandamaximecoaching.com/live-event. I'd love to welcome you!
