Season 2 | Episode 2 - Why Choosing Yourself Is the Hardest and Most Powerful Thing a Woman Can Do
Show notes
What if the life that looks “perfect”…
isn’t the life that’s meant for you?
In this episode of Her Voice Impacts, Daniela Ion sits down with photographer and storyteller Nina Scalikova a woman whose journey is a powerful reminder that sometimes, the most aligned path begins with the hardest decision.
At just 20 years old, Nina broke off an engagement and chose to follow an inner voice that told her she needed more more truth, more life, more connection to herself. What followed was not just travel across the world, but a deep journey inward.
From heartbreak and fear to self-love, purpose, and ultimately attracting the right partner, Nina’s story is a reflection of what becomes possible when you stop living for expectations… and start listening to yourself.
In this episode, we explore:
✨ The courage to walk away from what no longer feels aligned
✨ How heartbreak can become a catalyst for transformation
✨ Why everything in life is an “inner game”
✨ How to build a deep relationship with yourself
✨ The shift from seeking love → to becoming it
✨ Living in the present instead of chasing rigid life plans
💫 Key Takeaways:
• Growth often comes through discomfort, not certainty
• Your inner voice is your most powerful guide
• Self-love is not a concept — it’s a practice
• When you stop chasing, you start attracting
• Alignment creates opportunities you cannot plan
A message for you:
If you’ve ever felt like something in your life needs to change…
even if everything looks “right” on the outside , this episode is for you.
Because sometimes, the most courageous thing you can do
is choose yourself.

00:04:36: Because you were given a camera or
00:04:39: father had a camera and my father heard a camera And i was just borrowing it and taking pictures of flowers and myself.

00:04:59: That's another story.
00:05:00: Wow!
00:05:01: Yeah, so it started here and I'm very like passionate about art...I love to create stuff but i was just jumping from one thing to an other and photography is the only thing I stuck into
00:05:18: And this is something that your father was doing as well?
00:05:22: Oh It was
00:05:24: a hobby.
00:05:25: What kind of camera did you Taken use like?
00:05:30: what did it look?
00:05:30: I'm sure wasn't an iPhone.
00:05:32: No, I don't think there was an iPhone.
00:05:35: no time It was just tickets or camera.
00:05:38: one of the first ones right and when I Was taking somewhere people were looking at me because it was unusual to have this camera.
00:05:46: at that Time they thought that i am just a journalist Or something.
00:05:50: you're
00:05:50: a journalist!
00:05:52: When You were ten
00:05:53: yeah
00:05:54: And how would you go and get these photos developed?
00:05:57: or do it yourself?
00:05:58: Would you have a little...
00:06:00: It was digital camera, so I didn't need to develop
00:06:03: them.
00:06:04: But even more love to edit this picture in Photoshop To play with colours and other stuff, create something from it.
00:06:19: So my passion for editing is taking pictures back then.
00:06:24: Wow.
00:06:24: No, no
00:06:25: and how did you teach yourself?
00:06:26: Like is this something that came naturally to you?
00:06:29: or You found that you had to
00:06:31: train?
00:06:33: I was just learning these by myself because maybe you would say I have
00:06:40: Patience but
00:06:42: i'm not really patient when someone is teaching me Something.
00:06:45: so okay
00:06:47: So do want to know straight away How To Do Something?
00:06:49: Yeah And do you find that it's something in your life, that propels you?
00:06:54: That... You're not going to wait for someone To show you how to do things.
00:06:59: We are gonna take the risk a little bit.
00:07:02: I just need to learn from my own mistakes, y'know
00:07:05: Wow Learned From Your Own Mistakes.
00:07:07: I know It can hurt sometimes Yes Most of the times But i need to experience that Feel that and learn from that.
00:07:15: That is fascinating.
00:07:16: Okay so this Is Something For you, photography opened up a new world.
00:07:22: We can say that yes!
00:07:23: Did it start here in Slovakia for you?
00:07:27: Yeah I started to take pictures of my friends and myself And then i asked some celebrities in Slovakia.
00:07:35: It started to grow
00:07:36: Right.
00:07:37: is that how your online presence sort of started to develop?
00:07:42: by posting these pictures, or was it you writing?
00:07:45: Because I do see that there is a lot of them in Slovak.
00:07:48: So after we spread the translate unfortunately but... Is that how its started ?
00:07:53: Is this content , or are they pictures?
00:07:56: what's
00:07:56: developed on Facebook back then?
00:07:58: Oh right!
00:07:59: It was one of those first when the pages facebook page
00:08:03: started
00:08:04: so i had disney nascali coa photography and ...I really liked it And I was authentic.
00:08:12: I wasn't like, you know just post pictures with nothing... Yes!
00:08:16: ...I was really authentic.
00:08:17: so talking to people who were watching me my followers and it's been defining since then
00:08:31: Wow So You took an opportunity when obviously Facebook is starting out of pages where people weren't?
00:08:40: I mean, they were just posting whatever.
00:08:42: People are posting whatever but you saw something that you could grow?
00:08:47: Is it how do think of things like if i'm going to start this and want to grow or something...I don't wanna stay small.
00:08:55: No never I had big dreams Yes But other dreams And these was my hobby brought me the joy and it made me happy.
00:09:10: So I wasn't thinking about growing into bigger, um...I was just enjoying it.
00:09:18: And i think when people do something with joy and love It will show later.
00:09:24: so yeah doesn't have to be calculated
00:09:28: No!
00:09:28: So is there an organic process for you?
00:09:31: Did you find that you learned things yourself While doing this hobby, like did it stretch you?
00:09:39: Did it test you in some way or do you think I just want to give up.
00:09:43: I don't wanna do these anymore
00:09:45: Of course!
00:09:46: It was just sixteen and... You were
00:09:48: sixteen?!
00:09:49: ...I was bullying by some guys at my school because of
00:09:52: this.
00:09:53: Yeah they were making fun me And i got bad comments on my page and I was just sixteen.
00:10:01: And it was unusual in the back time, this time because now people or kids they have Instagram and social media everywhere since there are ten.
00:10:14: So you were like...
00:10:15: It's something new for me that some people can hate to you and write something bad to you but even go to police because someone is threatening with killing
00:10:26: Just because you were taking photos?
00:10:29: No, I think it was just a man who was... Oh!
00:10:32: It's like stalker.
00:10:33: Yeah
00:10:34: Wow wow.
00:10:35: So what if things were scary for a sixteen year old?
00:10:39: It was yeah.
00:10:41: And so when you are going through this did you think no it's not worth it anymore Don't be.
00:10:45: go want to have his kind of life where You know your putting yourself in the public eye and then allowing this scrutiny to come towards you, like... ...the bullying and all of that.
00:10:58: How did you navigate
00:10:59: that?
00:11:01: It still brought me more joy than I said as our negative feelings.
00:11:07: so i never thought about quitting it-I loved it.
00:11:10: but now when I'm older.. ..I am thinking more and more about quitting or just changing somehow because its kinds take your soul in some way when you are expressing yourself and when you open yourself, a new heart to the public
00:11:28: space.
00:11:29: It still brings me joy but it's more precious to me now.
00:11:34: privacy.
00:11:36: Wow yeah okay that's really interesting!
00:11:38: You say that because we're living in society where there is so much sharing to watch of people's lives that really, I mean twenty years ago would be mundane.
00:11:56: Like why do you want someone eating breakfast every day and having pieces toast or something?
00:12:05: Do find it now in society we are wanting pull back a little bit more not closed off but keep what is private sacred to ourselves in some
00:12:17: ways?
00:12:17: I think it would be good for everyone.
00:12:22: I think that social media brought a lot of good things, yes!
00:12:27: For us people we are more connected with other people around the world
00:12:32: but...
00:12:33: We're less connected to our selves and friends through our closest ones to our neighbours And they can really destroy relationships
00:12:42: personal relationships as well.
00:12:45: and also when you're in a situation where You are online, And have so many followers.
00:12:52: Someone knows someone!
00:12:55: It seems like it just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
00:12:58: Do find sometimes that Just having no one know you is actually
00:13:03: A
00:13:03: really wonderful
00:13:04: thing.
00:13:05: Yeah maybe thats why I enjoy travelling So much.
00:13:09: Okay Wow The travelling
00:13:13: part
00:13:13: for you, what does that actually do to your soul but also for you overall as a mission in life?
00:13:27: Like if I understand it right.
00:13:29: What does travelling mean for myself?
00:13:31: Yeah because travelling is important
00:13:34: It is.
00:13:36: I never wanted to travel, i was really scared when I was younger and actually engaged at the age of twenty.
00:13:44: What?
00:13:45: Yeah.
00:13:45: You're twenty!
00:13:48: And...I was scared to go abroad by bus somewhere in a foreign country then realized that maybe it's missing something or I need to explore myself I need to feel alive.
00:14:09: And...I broke up and started traveling the world.
00:14:13: So you broke off your engagement?
00:14:17: Was that the catalyst for you, is it needed to be free yourself To go find who are?
00:14:24: Yeah like inner voice in myself, and it was really intense.
00:14:31: And he was saying you need to go travel somewhere even if you die there!
00:14:36: You just need to Go!
00:14:37: Wow that's a very strong...
00:14:39: It was?
00:14:40: I
00:14:40: felt like this!
00:14:42: Wow wow and
00:14:43: listen to it.
00:14:44: so.. That is the very interesting thing that you said.
00:14:48: you listened to your inner voice which um Is that something you've always done or something you had to learn along?
00:14:56: That's my inner voice, I'm gonna listen to that.
00:15:00: Hmm...I'd say there are days or just periods of time when i know it's there and its telling me something but I don't listen
00:15:12: right?
00:15:13: And they're days When I listened to it..and I dont'know if some day realized There is this voice.
00:15:22: It was just natural for
00:15:23: me.
00:15:25: Maybe I was listening to it when i was little kid.
00:15:28: Do you
00:15:29: feel that's your voice?
00:15:31: Like a version of your voice or is there different voice, so is it an gut instinct of some sort?
00:15:41: yeah It doesn't sound like my voice No!
00:15:46: my more mature, intelligent
00:15:51: self in some ways.
00:15:52: Right?
00:15:53: So you felt like your always been guided...in some way.
00:15:58: so you broke off engagement at twenty which is very young when think about it.
00:16:03: right
00:16:04: I wanted to be this young wife and just be home cook clean everything.

00:20:10: Definitely!
00:20:10: Maybe there might be Nepal.
00:20:12: I don't know about Nepal This part of the world definitely.
00:20:16: And how did you adjust to obviously the environment and What did you want to do there like because you were there then?
00:20:25: what happens?
00:20:28: I just wanted walking through streets And Just feeling the presence of this place.

00:20:43: People in India are so lovely Like they can be dangerous.
00:20:47: two women very dangerous
00:20:49: really
00:20:50: But when you get to know them, they are the most generous people.
00:20:56: It's wonderful!
00:20:58: What is your connection there with women?
00:21:02: what do you sense there for yourself?
00:21:06: not only there but I've been feeling strong connections towards woman since young.
00:21:14: yes
00:21:15: i started taking pictures of women because For me women are the most beautiful creatures on this planet.
00:21:23: I love their essence, they faces...I love faces of woman around the world all different kinds and i love our womanhood.
00:21:34: And..i'm feminist.
00:21:38: Yes
00:21:38: Because when you meet these women around a world You see that they have different.
00:21:45: They don't have much freedom like we And they have different opportunities and different rules in their life.
00:21:54: Our lives are really different than them, even our lives here in Slovakia.
00:22:00: it's different then men's lives
00:22:02: Yes!
00:22:04: That is why its important to fight for this right?
00:22:08: And that being able be your true authentic self.
00:22:13: What?
00:22:14: her voice impact stands on?
00:22:16: is that authenticity of being
00:22:19: your
00:22:20: true voice, speaking and doing the things set you feel as a woman.
00:22:27: You should be able to do right?
00:22:29: Not to do anything for anyone in no for men or for women.
00:22:33: just for yourself.
00:22:35: find yourself Your sense and be true
00:22:42: because if you're motivation to do that in your life.
00:22:48: Were you able to speak with some women and kind of inspire them as well?
00:22:54: I think they inspired me even more really, yeah They are so strong So beautiful inside out.
00:23:03: For example Rita Tarana from India.
00:23:05: she's from Bangalore Indian influencer, very well known.
00:23:10: She's a beautiful face but when I met her she had even more beautiful heart and she is woman's right activist which can be dangerous in India.
00:23:25: But of course...I really admire her.
00:23:28: It's not the lady with the...
00:23:30: No it's not her!
00:23:31: ...but i want to visit her.
00:23:32: Yes

00:23:40: or something like that.
00:23:42: They are ladies in pink
00:23:44: Ladies in pink
00:23:45: and they took rights into their hands when men Are bad to female.
00:23:51: so self-defense,
00:23:52: right?
00:23:52: Yeah When they beat a wife Or one day our cheating or something i don't know
00:24:01: but she has a technique Right Like It's a proper.
00:24:05: yeah It's legal, I think.
00:24:08: But she is a massive, massive spokesperson for women's rights Right?
00:24:14: Yeah There are books about her.
00:24:17: She was very famous
00:24:18: And they're more like this Even in Nepal.
00:24:21: there...I forgot the name but she has a mighty Nepal and she's rescuing young girls who were trafficked
00:24:31: Really trafficked
00:24:32: In India.
00:24:34: So a lot of women like this are in India and Nepal, I want to meet them all.
00:24:40: What do you feel for inside your spirit?
00:24:45: Because You're very connected And i can feel that Do you have the message
00:24:53: For
00:24:55: Women To tell something That's going help them Unleash themselves?
00:25:01: Maybe from What you just said, You were scared as a young child to probably even do things or go out of different places.
00:25:10: How how?
00:25:12: How did you find that space inside yourself and say I want to be able To give a message to other women as well.
00:25:23: what's That
00:25:23: Space for you?
00:25:25: hmm i think it is very important.
00:25:28: Just sit with Yourself To talk to yourself,
00:25:33: I like this.
00:25:34: To have...to create a relationship with your self.
00:25:38: So take yourself to dates or dates.
00:25:41: Take care of you skin and hair And then take care Of your soul & heart And really talk to your heart.
00:25:50: Wow!
00:25:51: Like friend-to-friend People forget to talk to themselves To Have conversations With their inner voice.
00:25:59: Yeah Yeah,
00:26:00: it's so...
00:26:02: You just said everything was about looking back inside and I was thinking this the other day.
00:26:07: Everything isn't in a game!
00:26:10: It is not an out-of-game folks because what you think of yourself outside right?
00:26:18: And now we have seen society where everything looks like but You're saying to go back inside and have sit with yourself.
00:26:33: Have a relationship with your self, talk to yourself look after your soul.
00:26:39: This is all about you Coming Back To remember who are
00:26:45: of course because all these things in our modern world social media Media
00:26:51: any kind
00:26:52: yes they are trying to disconnect us from ourselves.
00:26:56: Why do think that?
00:26:59: Because we are parallelized.
00:27:00: when we're disconnected from ourselves
00:27:04: Wow, okay.
00:27:07: And do you think that?
00:27:07: When we and disconnected from our selves.
00:27:10: We aren't in this kind of like he said a paralyzed place That love cannot filter through it just it does its blocked because then we can.
00:27:21: if I don't have love for ourselves How could we have loved so the rest of the world right?
00:27:27: It's very true
00:27:28: yeah.
00:27:30: So the disconnection is to reconnect and that's not put your phone into charge.
00:27:35: Is it?
00:27:36: It's too Reconnect you
00:27:39: I would say maybe sometimes more difficult than putting your phone in but sometimes even more easy Just so easily.
00:27:50: what are some things for you that you reconnect with yourself again?
00:27:56: For example, I really love simple walks a nature.
00:28:01: it brings me peace and clarity in my mind.
00:28:06: And the most intense thing I can experience to bring back myself is traveling, soul-traveling because when you are abroad at a different place where you've never been before all your senses they're alive!
00:28:25: They are so... You
00:28:28: curious?
00:28:29: Your curiosity opens up.
00:28:32: It's what I find when you go to a new place, You just want to walk down the streets and...I think we're very similar.
00:28:39: because um When i've gone overseas?
00:28:41: I like to go where all the local people Go.
00:28:43: Mm-hmm!
00:28:44: I don't Like To Go Where All Tourists Go..I like to Who is drinking coffee Down The Side Street And I Want to Try their Tea Their Coffee Their Cakes Their Sweets.
00:28:55: I might not like Eating them, but at least I have a try right?
00:29:00: Are you that are kind of similar as well where you like to just suck everything out?
00:29:04: Yeah.
00:29:05: I love local places.
00:29:06: really I don't like touristic places at all.
00:29:08: yeah Like yeah, I can go there and see it But I didn't want to spend much more time There even here or Prague.
00:29:17: I don' t want to go to the city center.
00:29:19: No You go outside so you go out an explore The real people.
00:29:25: Maybe the city centre and these touristic places are more artificial than other places because you can feel authentic life in other parts when we're not at a tourist place.
00:29:39: And what
00:29:39: happens to you, as an authentic person?
00:29:42: Do you like to write or make videos?
00:29:45: What do they
00:29:46: do?!
00:29:46: To let it out!
00:29:47: You cannot keep them all inside!
00:29:49: Yeah I'm writing my Dior into my... I've been writing since i'm fifteen, so it's really nice to see
00:29:55: a journal.
00:29:57: Yeah and...I am just watching everything around And..just....i am there sitting with my mind listening to the wind birds people.
00:30:13: So you have learnt something about being in the present moment.
00:30:19: I find that what you're saying is that, You are not thinking about What am i going to do tomorrow?
00:30:25: What have a better doing in an hour.
00:30:26: Your like Im here right now and im gonna take all of this In how important it's for woman To tap into the present moment because i think thats where creativity Is.
00:30:37: Thats were its nexus It sitting there As soon as u enter the present Moment.
00:30:43: U can be creative But if your constantly thinking Of other things How Can U Be Creative?
00:30:49: Yeah, I think it's important for everyone to appreciate the present moment and this is a skill.
00:30:54: I learned during my travels from people when i was talking with them about philosophy of life like in Cambodia even gypsy villages in Romania
00:31:06: Yes!
00:31:06: And they were like...I don't know what tomorrow will be?
00:31:11: I'm just happy now and I am happy that I'm healthy
00:31:17: But I'm
00:31:18: just thinking about this moment.
00:31:20: This movement is important, grateful for having this moment and then whatever tomorrow brings i'm sure it'll be okay.
00:31:29: wow what a... What an interesting outlook in life because you know we've been taught have goals right down.
00:31:36: exactly ten goals five years and by the time
00:31:39: you do that like oh i don't want any goals sort of live day-to-day knowing that I'm doing the best and I can.
00:31:46: So draining
00:31:47: to have so much goals!
00:31:50: Yeah, so many bullet points... ...and so many spreadsheets of things.
00:31:54: it needs be achieved.
00:31:56: but have you found a living in moment has take on paths where opportunities are opened up for?
00:32:03: In unexpected parts yes And i feel like when you had goals It happened with me When I had goal You can lost yourself under way there Because this goal can last and keeps you in this path for I don't know, five to ten years.
00:32:19: But what if you realize during these paths that you enjoy something else?
00:32:25: And we didn't!
00:32:26: Yeah...
00:32:27: You didn't give yourself a chance.
00:32:28: That's
00:32:28: why you need to be connected with your self at the present moment.
00:32:32: To listen to your heart would make you happy.
00:32:34: Just do it
00:32:35: There.
00:32:35: so makes sense.
00:32:36: Wow So do see your life like that Like when you live Not day-to-day, but I'm sure you have some plans.
00:32:44: But they're not like...I have to achieve this
00:32:48: in three
00:32:48: years time!
00:32:50: I was like that yeah and i've not liked it now.
00:32:52: No And uh It's better for me not be like that.
00:32:56: Do find out?
00:32:56: That's a feminine attribute as well.
00:32:58: flow into life You know be able to just weave in and weave out.
00:33:03: Yeah, definitely it has something with femininity.
00:33:05: Yes yes yeah
00:33:06: It's a beauty thing as well And patience comes with that.
00:33:09: So also at the same time you're In the present moment You are flowing But At The Same Time Your Still Listening To The Guidance but...at The Same time your Also still planning.
00:33:26: Does That Make Sense?
00:33:27: I know sounds like you doing everything But they come in a different order.
00:33:30: You're not planning, then trying to flow... Then try and get things to happen like it's a different
00:33:36: way.
00:33:36: I'd say you are enjoying the flow while this is your learning
00:33:43: because of the flow?
00:33:44: Yes!
00:33:44: And what kind opportunities have you found?
00:33:46: because i know that you talked about setting up schools.
00:33:51: was it or Things for children.
00:33:55: Yes in Nepal?
00:33:56: yes, I will volunteering in Nepal and Buddhist school And I listen to my inner voice.
00:34:03: Yeah because that was just...I never travel abroad when it's summer like you escape winter?
00:34:09: And i love to be at home on its summer Because I loved summer in Slovakia.
00:34:12: Oh
00:34:12: It is absolutely beautiful here Sometimes
00:34:16: too hot but can't
00:34:18: be.
00:34:20: But there was an evening.
00:34:23: I was online shopping clothes.
00:34:25: Okay and then i was listening, thinking to myself do i need these clothes?
00:34:30: really wouldn't be better if i go volunteering into buddhist school in nepal?
00:34:35: wow it's a life-old moment?
00:34:38: Do i really need those clothes?
00:34:40: maybe i should go.
00:34:41: Wow okay
00:34:43: this is great!
00:34:44: And i really didn't need it.
00:34:46: so i booked ticket to nepal the more beautiful experience in my life.
00:34:56: I left half of my heart there, i needed to go meditation and bring it back.
00:35:00: Are you serious?
00:35:01: Yeah!
00:35:01: I had depression after... After..I came back.
00:35:05: Did
00:35:05: You get close with all the kids just being that environment.
00:35:10: It was so.... I think even like being with myself because for first time I left my phone on social media Nooo Of My Life And I was enjoying the present moment and reality of this life without phone.
00:35:26: What you were doing before twenty years, it was normal but now... It's so different!
00:35:34: Like a vacation from your daily lives.
00:35:36: Yes like a detox right?
00:35:38: You say K-phone you're staying home.
00:35:40: But I
00:35:41: felt real And i also connected to myself To my self and said that have come back and wouldn't be so connect again.
00:35:51: So I was a depressed little.
00:35:53: Wow!
00:35:55: What happened with the initiative there?
00:35:57: Were you able to volunteer, what were you doing as a volunteer?
00:36:04: I'm supposed take pictures and videos And make some materials for their promotion because they live in donations of people.
00:36:13: so i wanted help on my marketing skills.
00:36:17: But there was some miscommunication with other brother of this guy.
00:36:23: And I teach them English and
00:36:25: my English isn't so... It's just fantastic!

00:36:31: language?

00:38:28: opened
00:38:28: up.

00:39:08: strong and masculine man, intelligent kind loving romantic like old school romantic.
00:39:17: I wanted a man who will write me letters handwritten letters Wow!
00:39:21: And i never had men like this.
00:39:24: Okay maybe... This is too
00:39:28: much Men like these.
00:39:29: they don't even
00:39:32: exist now.
00:39:34: So I met this guy And I have a box full of letters from him now.
00:39:40: So he just naturally writes you letters?
00:39:43: He even write me poems and song.
00:39:49: Okay, so You really need to inspire the ladies because...I speak too many women who are either waiting for their soulmate or they're trying.
00:40:00: This is something that in society we hear so much about these stories.
00:40:05: Where's this
00:40:07: guy?!
00:40:09: What do you think YOU had to do in order for that to magnetise?
00:40:16: Because there's gotta be something there.
00:40:17: It was a long journey!
00:40:22: In the game,
00:40:22: right?!
00:40:23: My heart was broken many times before it
00:40:25: did but
00:40:27: every time I realised I needed... Even when I broke your engagement...
00:40:32: Torrenti, three-one what did you
00:40:33: say??
00:40:34: You said you NEEDED
00:40:35: THAT!!
00:40:36: I felt like... My soul was craving it.
00:40:40: When I broke the engagement, I had these thoughts that... ...I need to experience heartbreaks.
00:40:47: Why?
00:40:49: Because you grow through pain and i felt like.. ..i needed more experiences in this life!
00:40:58: Every experience is good even negative or positive when thinking about bigger
00:41:05: things.
00:41:06: Wow.
00:41:06: Oh gosh, you're so brave!
00:41:08: She says... You needed the heartbreak to experience it.
00:41:11: Is that so?
00:41:12: That you could work with any kind of triggers inside of you?
00:41:16: Yeah..that you can heal.
00:41:17: So like any traumas challenges Like I'm not gonna let this stop me
00:41:22: Yes and only hard breaks and pain can do these.
00:41:26: So my heart many times broke And i was searching for love from my desperate state and I found only bad men.
00:41:35: So when you're in... Okay, this is interesting!
00:41:38: When you are in a desperate state, you magnetize the wrong man?
00:41:42: Yes Like an light bulb moment, mic drop.
00:41:45: But it's so simple truth.
00:41:47: And when you weren't In a desperate stage You had worked on yourself doing things that you loved That were passionate about.
00:41:57: Something shifted.
00:41:59: Not really It has to.
00:42:02: came the hardest heartbreak, The last heart break.
00:42:06: Oh see we had a horrible heartbreak before?
00:42:08: Yeah when I was stepping into my last relationship...I knew from day one that this will be really hard and it can destroy me And This will hurts a lot But i need to do It!
00:42:24: So i wonder After this relationship I was ready, I was whole.
00:42:32: I was myself...
00:42:34: What did you learn in that terrible heartbreak about yourself?
00:42:37: To
00:42:37: love my self!
00:42:43: Before that i was afraid to be alone but after the relationship i was craving for being alone with just me and not looking at other people.
00:42:59: Oh my goodness Just this alone, I'm sure is speaking like to so many women because what you just said... To be your own rock.
00:43:14: To learn to be with yourself and to love yourself first!
00:43:19: And
00:43:20: that was through heartbreak of many relationships.
00:43:25: Yeah as i said in the beginning of this interview I need to experience it, feel
00:43:31: it.
00:43:31: It's really brave to say that
00:43:33: and learn.
00:43:34: but now i feel like my soul is satisfied after these ten years of heartbreaks and pain.
00:43:42: you're not letting it happen again.
