  • Ep.38 2025 It's Now or Never – What Do You Have To Lose?
    Jan 5 2025

    As we step into a brand-new year, it’s time to stop putting your dreams on hold. In this episode, I share the highs and lows of my year, including the challenges I faced finishing and publishing my book—obstacles that had nothing to do with the actual writing. These experiences taught me the power of persistence and belief in my vision.

    If you’ve been keeping a project or goal on the backburner, whether it’s big or small, this is your sign to start. What do you have to lose? Let this be the year you say YES to yourself and your creativity. Tune in for a dose of motivation to take that first step and make this your year of action.

She specialises in helping musicians and spiritual creatives uncover their purpose, overcome fears, and unlock their full artistic potential.

    Lucie believes that to be truly happy and successful there must be a balance between mind, body and soul, a connection between awareness and responsibility and a deep desire to live life consciously and kindly, striving not only for the happiness of oneself but also for the happiness of others. This is a balance she always aims for in her personal and work life.
