What does your morning (routine) look like?
My little one wakes me at 5:30 and invites me to play. Then I make her breakfast, watch her favourite show with her, get washed up, mutate to an animal caretaker trying to dress my little one which at that point is either a cat, a koala or a small cow, drive to the kindergarten, kiss her good-bye, listen to loud music while driving to my playroom, drink my first coffee and get started with my work.

What is it like to be you?
Good question. I don't know myself. Basically it is being curious about stuff nobody cares about, being playful and creative not giving a sh*t on its quality. It is also having a lot of G&T with deep philosophical rambling around and trying to not grow up and accept the status quo.

Transformation is:
Transformation is an attentive reaction to being open and realistic.
By observing what really happens around us and accepting that everything is flowing and changing all the time, we can transform in a sense that we react and act differently to go with this flow.
