“Imagine your life as a blank canvas, you have the brush, you have the colour palettes, so do paint it in the most vibrant colours!”
Embrace your creativity and chase the life of your dreams!
Hello, I’m Ioana and I like playing with words.
I believe in miracles and magic, and I trust that a way to self-care is by following your dreams!
Writing for me is feeling joy and liberation at the same time. Writing means spreading my gift to the world, feeling meaningful, and inspire others on pursuing their dreams!
Sharing my stories as uncomfortable as it may be, in order to empower others to embrace their creativity, was one of the scariest, yet wonderful choices I could have ever made.
I am here for those who want to improve the quality of their lives, for those who take action in the direction of their dreams, and for those who embrace change uncomfortable as it may be.
On this page, you will find resources for personal growth + finding and embracing your creativity, also practical and inspirational content that will empower you to move forward no matter how painful it can be sometimes.
Through these pages I want to put a smile on your face, to push you to create and live the life that you want, to live a freely life, to inspire you go on a travel adventure. I invite you to introspection and to change patterns that no longer serve you. I encourage you to trust yourself and your gut, to ask questions, to dream, to spend time with yourself. I tell you truths that you might not want to hear and push you to step out of your comfort zone.
All the recommendations and tools you may find on the blog are personally tested and worked perfectly for me. It may not work for you and that is just fine. We are different, so in this consists the magic.
A little bit about me
Wanna hear a short funny story about my so-called debut in writing? Well, since I was a little girl I used to put in writing my thoughts. When in fifth grade, I developed a crush on a Brazilian actor. Yes, in the mid-’90s in Romania, the Brazilian soap operas were in bloom.
So, I put my feelings on paper, hid them well under my bed’s mattress, so my parents couldn’t find them. Well, the inevitable occurred. When cleaning, my mother found the papers, read them, threw them away, telling me they were full of dust.
A complete disaster! I thought the world would end at that particular moment. I remember crying and being furious mostly because she threw them away, but also that she read them and found my little secret. Not only has she read the papers, but also she shared my secret with my math teacher and I had felt so much shame. When my teacher pronounced the name Rodolfo (yes, yes that was the name of the actor in that soap opera), better I would have been buried alive than to bear the shame.
Right now I could really laugh and amuse myself, but back then I was full of rage, fury, and shame.
I only continued writing from time to time when I had a heartbreak (oh, and what writing I did produce then) when I used to feel sad, lonely, or upset. So, I used to write only when there were storms inside of me. When in peace, I would stop.
But something happened in 2017. I began by writing in a journal just to understand myself and those around me better. Little by little, without even noticing, my journaling turned out into the vivid articles that you can find on the blog.
At the moment, I do write even when it’s sunny inside, not only in the midst of a storm.
I committed to writing no matter the weather.
So happy to be near you on the path of your journey!
