Episode Details

Do you suffer from analysis paralysis? Do you feel like you want to do something greater than what you’re doing right now but don’t feel capable of taking the leap?

Nicki van Ingen Schenau found herself in a foreign country, struggling to learn the language, and searching for what she was going to do to make her living. After a few years on the hunt, the solution found her, and now she runs her Tokyo tour business remotely from Amsterdam!

But Nicki’s story is not about developing and executing the perfect plan. It’s actually a story about how to discover your perfect path by stopping the analysis process and just getting out there and trying things out. 

Nicki covers some fascinating truths about the twists and turns of life, including:

• How often the plans we come up with have to be thrown out the window (which is actually a good thing, because it means you don’t have to have the perfect A-Z plan before you can begin)

• And, similarly, how often the best adventures appear somewhere along the way in ways we never imagined

• Why you should ignore the voices of the naysayers

And so much more.

If you need a word of encouragement for the wonderful ways solutions present themselves in our lives, or you need motivation to get up and start throwing spaghetti against the wall, get ready for this inspirational nudge in the right direction!
