Closing an Era of Online Teaching, Blogging, and Podcasting

If you’re here for my blog, articles, podcast or online courses, they are unfortunately no longer active. I’ve let them settle into their ending so something new can grow. After many years of writing on my blog and hosting The Empowered Creative podcast, I feel a natural shift pulling me in a new direction. Therefore, I'm retiring parts of my business. The same goes for the courses; The Lifestyle Photography Academy and Optimize Your Creative Life, which has been part of my world since 2010. These online chapters are closing with huge amounts of gratitude. It's been the most incredible journey, working with and teaching thousands of incredible women from more than 40+ countries for so many years.

I have been in a quiet transition for a long time. I’m longing for a slower life, away from the online world. Less phone. Less social media. Less information overload. More analogue living, more real conversations, more artwork, more fresh air, more quiet moments where I can discover my next chapter in life. I want to spend less time in front of a screen and more time in person, face to face, creating and working locally in Aarhus, Denmark where I live.

It's not been an easy decision for me to make. It's been on my mind for a long time to make changes in my career, but it's hard to do when you love what you do and the people you work with. Unfortunately, my body can no longer cope with all the hours sitting by the computer; writing blog posts, creating online training, recording podcast, producing and editing video content. 

And if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: When something shifts inside you, when your body starts setting boundaries, you need to listen. The body is wiser than the mind. So I’m following my intuition. And sometimes you need to close a few doors for new ones to appear. It’s my way of telling the universe I’m ready. Ready for whatever new adventure wants to meet me next.

I still offer in person coaching and individual photography training. My work continues to blend my twenty five years of experience in psychology with my path as a storytelling photographer. I love teaching mindful photography and mindful living. I love creating a calm and inspiring space where women feel safe to explore their creativity and trust their inner voice.

I'm also working professionally with photography projects again. It feels good to return to the roots of my creative life. After years of teaching, I feel excited to play with portrait work and a bit of fashion again, as well as shooting editorial work + content creation for luxury brands. That is where everything began for me. A camera, a person, styling a visual story, a moment of mindful connection. It still feels like magic.

Thank you. Truly. To every student, listener, reader, client, customer, subscriber, and every kind soul who has followed my work since I started back in 2009. I carry so much gratitude for you. You shaped this journey with your trust, your courage, and your creativity. I would not be who I am without you.

You’re welcome to follow along on Instagram. It will be the quiet little corner where I continue to share my work, my thoughts, and the moments that shape my days.
