Two years passed from my injury and I was diagnosed with depression and later gastritis and duodenitis as a result of it. Things that once brought me joy became blunt and it felt like I was never fully present - that was an insanely hard part. I was prescribed medicine, but I only managed to take it for half a year - my body felt sick, quite like it was just rejecting the pills. I decided to put them aside and focus on regaining clarity through working on myself daily, without exceptions. That is actually how I got back to my yoga practice. 

I want to inspire young girls to not be afraid of feeling deeply and being curious to understand their emotions. To take a moment during the day and ask themselves “how are you?” and take time to genuinely answer. I want to share little things that have helped me insanely through the harder times that still come sometimes and support all the beautiful souls out there to finding a purpose in life - which is the biggest step in the transformation and growth journey. For me it was yoga. I found it, or maybe yoga found me and through yoga I found surfing and my purpose was slowly beginning to get unraveled. I found the thing that makes my eyes spark even when just thinking about it and in this virtual wellness studio I want to share as much as I can to inspire you and motivate to work hard to get there too.

After many years of professional training and competing all around the world I landed in a hospital with a blood infection during a competition abroad and was forced to retire from my athletic career to focus on regaining my health and well-being. I joined the national team at the age of twelve and competed in countries such as Korea, China, Iran, France, Berlin and many more - some of which I traveled to alone at a very young age. I took part in Germany’s super talent and well as Polish’s Got Talent and was interviewed in plenty of tv stations. It was a truly big part of my life.

Having to end this part of my life and close a chapter for the first time was a great challenge, but I am so grateful for the closure. If it didn’t happen I wouldn’t be where I am right now - the life I dreamt of as a little girl. It taught me that sometimes life has a better path for us, hidden and trusting the timing and events that happen is so full of opportunities. Every end is a beginning to something else.
