🎙️ In this episode, I had the honor of speaking with Angela R. Lewis – former professional basketball player, coach, author, and now Head of Operations at SpeakerHub. What she shared deeply resonated with me, especially her unique framework for female athlete development called the 6V Model:
1. Voice – Helping athletes express who they are.
2. Vision – Understanding where they’re going and why.
3. Values – Anchoring their actions in what matters most.
4. Valleys – Embracing the struggles that shaped them.
5. Victory – Redefining what winning means, beyond the scoreboard.
6. Volunteering – Giving back and connecting with a greater purpose.
This conversation struck a powerful chord with my own journey as a somatics teacher and breathwork coach.
We spoke about how many young female athletes lose touch with their body – and how that disconnection often leads to self-doubt, burnout, anxiety, and even loss of identity.
Angela’s message reaffirmed a truth I’ve seen time and again:
⚠️ When an athlete becomes emotionally numb or physically tense, they start performing from fear, not freedom.
And that’s exactly why I do what I do:
To help athletes (and those guiding them) reconnect with their body through conscious movement, breathing, and emotional awareness.
Angela’s approach is not about pushing harder—it’s about understanding deeper.
She brings a rare mix of toughness and tenderness that today’s sports culture desperately needs—especially for young women navigating expectations, pressure, and puberty all at once.
If you’re a coach, athlete, parent, or someone who supports the next generation—this episode is a must-listen.
You’ll walk away with insights on development, identity, and the power of leading from within.

In this deeply insightful and transformative episode, we sit down with Dr. Zdeslav Hrepic, a physicist, educator, and certified life coach, to explore the profound intersections of science, spirituality, and personal transformation. With a rich background in physics education and a lifelong passion for metaphysics, Dr. Z has dedicated his career to uncovering how the fundamental laws of nature mirror our personal and spiritual growth.
Having spent over two decades in the United States, teaching at universities and diving deep into physics and life coaching, Dr. Z eventually followed his heart back to Croatia. There, he embraced a more holistic approach, blending physics, family constellations, and energy work to help people heal ancestral burdens, realign with their true selves, and live in harmony with the natural flow of life.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
🔹 The Connection Between Physics & Spirituality – How scientific principles, such as Newton’s Third Law (action & reaction), align with spiritual laws like karma and the law of cause and effect.
🔹 Healing Generational Trauma – How unconscious ancestral burdens shape our lives, relationships, and physical health—and how family constellations can free us from these unseen forces.
🔹 Balancing the Left & Right Brain for Optimal Living – The importance of integrating the masculine (analytical, goal-driven) and feminine (intuitive, holistic) energies to achieve flow and authenticity.
🔹 The Power of Energy Shifts – How changing your internal state alters the probabilities of your external reality, much like quantum physics suggests.
🔹 A Simple but Powerful Practice: “Sending Love Out as a Scout” – A transformative technique to shift energy before entering important spaces, conversations, or challenges.
Why This Episode Matters:
Many of us feel disconnected from our true selves, trapped by societal expectations, past traumas, or subconscious limitations. Dr. Z presents a unique blend of physics and metaphysics, offering tangible ways to navigate these struggles. He shares his own personal journey—from feeling misaligned in the U.S., to making the bold decision to return home, despite uncertainty—and how that leap led him to a life of greater authenticity and fulfillment.
Who This Episode is For:
✅ Seekers of personal transformation who want to bridge science and spirituality
✅ Individuals struggling with subconscious blocks in relationships, health, or finances
✅ Those curious about family constellations and healing ancestral trauma
✅ Anyone looking for a practical method to elevate their daily energy and state of mind
If you’ve ever wondered how physics can illuminate your personal growth journey, or how to release inherited burdens to step into your full potential, this episode is a must-listen.
🎧 Tune in now and learn how to align with the natural laws of the universe to create a life of freedom, authenticity, and deep fulfillment!

Resnična preobrazba zahteva čas. Si pripravljen/a stopiti na svojo pot?

🔍 "Kako si?"*Jednostavno pitanje, ali nosi slojeve značenja. Većina ljudi odgovara automatski— "Dobro sam." Ali je li to istina ili samo iluzija koje držimo?
Mnogi se bore s kroničnom boli, emocionalnim blokadama i obrascima koje ne razumiju. Oni guraju naprijed, zanemarujući signale koje im tijelo šalje. Ali bol nije neprijatelj - to je poruka. Poziv na usporavanje, promišljanje i **usklađivanje sa stvarnošću.
💡 U ovoj epizodi zaranjamo duboko u:
✅ Zašto je bol - fizička, emocionalna ili mentalna - često ukorijenjena u prošlim iskustvima i odnosima.
✅ Kako podsvjesno ponavljamo istu emocionalnu dinamiku iz djetinjstva, rekreirajući iste borbe.
✅ Iluzija "sve je u redu" i kako nas izbjegavanje nelagode drži zaglavljenima.
✅ Zašto se transformacija ne odnosi na brza rješenja—zahtijeva emocionalnu zrelost, strpljenje i duboko samoistraživanje.
✅ Moć AEQ učenja za razbijanje podsvjesnih ciklusa, razumijevanje sebe i poboljšanje odnosa.
✅ Kako neravnoteže muške i ženske energije utječu na naša tijela, karijere i osobne živote.
✅ Stvarnost rasta kroz nelagodu — zašto je suočavanje s boli neophodno za trajnu promjenu.
🔥 Teška istina?
Mnogi ljudi žele ozdraviti, ali se opiru tom procesu. Traže spasitelje umjesto učitelja. Ali prava transformacija dolazi kada preuzmete odgovornost, shvatite svoje podsvjesne obrasce i zakoračite u stanje svjesne svijesti.
💭 Što ako vaša bol nije samo fizička? Što ako je to emocionalna reakcija na život u neuravnoteženosti? Što ako je usporavanje, umjesto ubrzavanja, ključ za kretanje naprijed?
🎧 Slušajte sada i počnite preoblikovati svoju stvarnost. Vrijeme je da se oslobodite iluzija, prigrlite nelagodu rasta i stvorite život kakav uistinu želite.
#AEQ #EmotionalMaturity #HealingJourney #Consciousness #SelfAwareness #BreakTheCycle #GrowthMindset
02:10 Kako si Stjepane? I što to pitanje zapravo znači?
04:58 Razgovor o boli, traumi, situacijama, prošlosti, ratu, zlostavljanju. Od problema bježimo u smetnje. Ući u problem ili ga izbjeći, razumjeti, riješiti u stvarnosti?
13:13 Stjepanova iskustva prije AEQ metode i sada sa samim sobom? Kako je tražio sebe izvan sebe?
22:21 Zašto tako brzo bježimo od sebe? Ili u bolje stvari? Koliko je energije potrebno za brzinu?
29:32 Što se događa kada skrenemo s puta? Koja hemisfera mozga radi previše?
36:22 Kako se čovjek okrenuti sebi, suradnji u sebi, razumjeti emocije i ono što se događa u tijelu? Kako nam AEQ može pomoći da postignemo bolji osjećaj hemisfera mozga i novu ravnotežu?
44:29 Kakav se kredit stvara u odnosima, u obiteljima? Karpmanov trokut. Kako vidite sebe kako ste se promijenili?
51:01 Kakav je tvoj razvoj emocionalne zrelosti? Da je uravnoteženiji i da donosi kvalitetne promjene?
55:43 AEQ pristup omogućuje razvoj života u pravom smjeru. Drugačiji život i svijet ravnoteže u nama i izvan nas. Zadnja misao o Stjepanu.

It was never about doing too much, always not enough - Stjepan Ostruški #14
🔍 “How are you?” A simple question, yet it carries layers of meaning. Most people respond automatically— “I’m fine.” But is that the truth, or just an illusion we hold onto?
Many struggle with chronic pain, emotional blocks, and patterns they don’t understand. They push forward, ignoring the signals their body is sending. But pain isn’t the enemy—it’s a message. A call to slow down, reflect, and realign with reality.
💡 In this episode, we dive deep into:
✅ Why pain—physical, emotional, or mental—is often rooted in past experiences and relationships.
✅ How we subconsciously repeat the same emotional dynamics from childhood, recreating the same struggles.
✅ The illusion of “everything is fine” and how avoiding discomfort keeps us stuck.
✅ Why transformation isn’t about quick fixes—it requires emotional maturity, patience, and deep self-exploration.
✅ The power of AEQ learning to break subconscious cycles, understand yourself, and improve relationships.
✅ How masculine and feminine energy imbalances affect our bodies, careers, and personal lives.
✅ The reality of growth through discomfort—why facing pain is necessary for lasting change.
🔥 The hard truth?
Many people want to heal, but they resist the process. They seek saviors instead of teachers. But real transformation comes when you take responsibility, understand your subconscious patterns, and step into a state of conscious awareness.
💭 What if your pain isn’t just physical? What if it’s an emotional response to a life out of balance? What if slowing down, instead of speeding up, is the key to moving forward?
🎧 Listen now and start reshaping your reality. It’s time to break free from illusions, embrace the discomfort of growth, and create the life you truly want.
#AEQ #EmotionalMaturity #HealingJourney #Consciousness #SelfAwareness #BreakTheCycle #GrowthMindset
02:10 How are you Stjepan? And what does that question actually mean?
04:58 Talking about pain, trauma, situations, the past, war, abuse. We run away from problems into distractions. Head into the problem or avoid it, understand it, solve it in reality?
13:13 Stjepan's experiences before the AEQ method and now with himself? How did he search for himself outside of himself?
22:21 Why do we run away from ourselves so quickly? Or into better things? How much energy is needed for speed?
29:32 What happens when we get off track? Which hemisphere of the brain is working too much?
36:22 How can a person turn towards themselves, into cooperation within themselves, understand emotions and what is happening in the body? How can AEQ help us to achieve a better sense of the hemispheres of the brain and a new balance?
44:29 What kind of credit is created in relationships, in families? Karpman's triangle. How do you see yourself as you have changed?
51:01 How is your emotional maturity development? That it is more balanced and that it makes quality changes?
55:43 AEQ approach enables the development of life in the right direction. A different life and a world of balance within us and outside of us. Last thought of Stjepan.

Love. Optimism. Courage to confront yourself. Using the tools. To feel instead of just filling the void. Emotions. Energy. Change. Leaving the victimhood behind. Ability to relax. Efficiency. From racing to self awareness. Hope.
This and much more was presented in this podcast episode with my guest Jani Brajkovič, former pro cyclist racer. Listen to his journey from struggle to self awareness, where he recounts a deeply introspective journey through his career and personal struggles, shedding light on the complexities of high-performance sports and human emotion.
Viewing himself as a failure, even though he was a world champion in time trial. Obsessed with rigorous training, creating an eating disorder, ignoring his body's signals, leading to overwork, emotional numbness, and chronic issues. If you are an athlete, or a parent, you might be facing similar adversities and suffering. There is a solution and no need to fall so deep as Jani did. You do not need to over achieve to be worthy of love. Thus enabling yourself for a destructive cycle leading to physical and mental breakdowns, including panic attacks, insomnia, and chronic stress, isolating from others because of shame or guilt.
Learn how Jani first saved himself with the AEQ method approach and now helps so many athletes to rediscover their passion and activate their potential. How to reduce muscle tension, reconnect with the body, and process emotions more effectively. He emphasizes the importance of balancing effort with recovery, respecting the body's limits, and understanding the deeper causes of chronic tension and inefficiency. We also touched on the tabu theme of being a victim. In sport arenas there is a cyclical nature of power dynamics that can abuse many.
Just around the corner there is hope and tools that teach and inspire others. Jani sees potential for a big change in professional athletes. By addressing their parasympathetic systems and reconnecting with their bodies, they can achieve sustainable performance, enjoy the fruits of their labor, and live more balanced lives. True fulfillment and success require self-awareness, emotional connection, and respect for the body's limits. Overtraining and emotional suppression lead to long-term harm, even if they yield short-term gains. Recovery, relaxation, and authentic connection with oneself are essential for both performance and personal well-being. The culture of pushing through pain at all costs must evolve to prioritize efficiency, health, and sustainable growth.
Jani's story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative potential of self-awareness and holistic care.
01:47 Intro of Jani and his career
03:49 How are you now building on past success, but in the right way?
05:35 How were you understanding already during your career the natural laws of life?
13:51 Order vs disorder. Numbness, escaping from feeling, chronic muscle contraction?
25:34 What was your fuel to keep going so hard on a bicycle?
40:22 What was the main message of crashes in the race, injuries, accidents?
50:20 How can you wrap up the consequences of living in a Karpman drama triangle?
57:16 How does the AEQ breathing help to change from before to after?
01:06:39 What does it mean to be relaxed, to manage yourself, muscles, emotions, feelings, to be relaxed when you need to be?

Kenny is an amazing musician with a difficult past. He went through shit and came out on the other side like a star. We touched on his digestive issues, chronic tension and stress, headaches, pain and how all of this turned into a nightmare of anxiety, panic attacks and just pure hell living. To top it off, Kenny was lost in addiction, escaping the reality and further on dysregulating his system. He found solutions. First through naturopathy and therapy on trauma and addictions. Then he found me and the AEQ method. This is our story:
He found me through the Innovative Medicine podcast by Caspar Szulc where I was a guest. Kenny needed this body approach, after trying therapy on the mind side for some years. Slowly going into his whole body through interoception. Feeling and acknowledging sensations in his own body. Finally, down from the mind and into the body he says. He understood immediately that this is not a quick fix approach. So he committed and devoted himself to the AEQ exercises.
Being a part of the men's group, Kenny connected the dots as father as well. The AEQ method helps him to express vulnerability, emotions and unconditional love to his 4 year old son. Something that many men fight and deal with, the lack of fatherly love. Explanations and feelings give him the ability to change his behaviour from being absent, aggressive, detached, dysregulated, into presence, high attention and focus.
He also changed his lifestyle from ego driven chasing fame to a family guy. Now he creates music on his own terms and especially as a gift for people. Emitting emotional stability and growing together with his wife. Having more energy for creativity and life in general. Kenny is slowly getting the reins of life in his own hands. Thank you for being an exemplary client of the AEQ method and Jure.
03:03 Where did you find me?
04:00 What was attracting you to Jure?
04:31 How did you feel and get this first experience and connect the feelings in the body?
05:19 Why is this not marketing and how would you confirm that these results do happen?
07:24 What was your life like before from 1 to 10 with a panic attack, anxiety, being in the mind?
10:11 How did you start that journey of self healing, past, traumas, addictions?
16:06 How were your first experiences with the AEQ method and feeling your body in depth? The interoception.
19:52 How much less dysregulated and how much more in control are you now?
21:11 Emotional maturity. How are you managing emotions now?
29:43 How are you confronting reality and putting away the illusion?
32:01 How is this reflecting in your relationships in family?
38:39 How much are you now aware of your conscious and subconscious level?
41:50 Example on seeing the bigger picture in day to day life.
45:26 How can you see the change in your music creativity and in the order of life?
47:23 Living from an emotional stable place.
54:46 Your experience with the AEQ breathing.
56:56 How does a longer inhale influence on exhale, dividing energy in life?
01:00:00 Question for Jure. After AEQ exercises being emotional, worked up, and not feeling so well. Why is that so?

Biti majka 4 djece i sve ih roditi kod kuće. Ivana ima iskustvo, a povrh toga i potrebno znanje, mudrost i empatiju kako bi vodila i pomogla ženama nakon poroda. Nositi se s posljedicama ovog čuda koje život jest. Kako bi žene mogle dati sve od sebe novorođenčetu. Kako tegobe ne bi postale kronične i kako bi oporavak bio učinkovit i zdrav.
Oduševio me Ivanin pristup i kako se nosi s teškim pitanjima koja su vrlo složena. Razina koju ona donosi za stol i ženama nadilazi ovaj svijet. Jer nekako je čovječanstvo uspjelo ovu prirodnu i najveličanstveniju stvar iskasapiti u umjetnu i odvojenu od tijela. Rađanje je najneobičnije iskustvo svakog života. I stvaranjem straha, brzom industrijom carskog reza, neslušanjem potreba trudnice, ograničavanjem i pritiskom obmanjujućih informacija. Povišenje razine adrenalina i kortizola te manevriranje u nezgodne položaje tijekom poroda proizvodi razorne posljedice po život.
Zato je moja misija donijeti ovu vrstu informacija svijetu. Da se osvijetli ovaj nevjerojatan proces i da se zaustave katastrofalni utjecaji koji se događaju. Zahvaljujući Ivani uspjeli smo predstaviti i objasniti osnovne i ključne aspekte toga što za ženu znači biti povezana sa svojim tijelom. Prije, tijekom i nakon trudnoće. Pogotovo učinak na bebu. Nervozna mama stvara nervoznu bebu. Uravnotežena, tijelom povezana i smirena mama može stvarati "čuda" i doživjeti potpuno drugačije iskustvo. Bez postporođajne depresije, kroničnih problema u leđima, inkontinencije, napadaja panike pri disanju. Može biti nastao životom i spokojan.
Potrebni su vam alati i smjernice kako biste sebi i svojim bebama omogućili najbolji život. Kako bi bili u redu i zdravi. Ne shvaćajući stvari kao normalne, već se mijenjajući i prilagođavajući novim razinama. Stvoriti zdravlje kao nešto normalno. Raditi stvari kako treba. Odvojite vrijeme i uložite trud i energiju da poslušate ovaj podcast koji će vam promijeniti život na bolje.
02:55 Tko je Ivana?
06:04 Majka 4 djece
07:25 Koliko ste osjećali svoje tijelo prije AEQ metode?
10:38 Nasilni porod. Kako se žene suočavaju s važnim informacijama?
21:13 Kako radi s porodiljama, dajući si vremena da se opusti, proširi, a ne samo rasteže i postigne? Dopuštanje vremena i prostora za osjećanje i učenje.
31:58 Crveno svjetlo zeleno svjetlo refleks. Što se događa nakon isporuke? Što i kako pomažete ženama nakon poroda da izađu iz refleksa?
41:47 Kako sad razumiješ disanje? Veza s tijelom i na vaše odnose / ljude
52:41 Kako se vratiti osnovama da biste imali mogućnost opuštanja i oporavka?
01:03:24 Koji su glavni alati?

Being a mother of 4 and giving birth to all of them at home. Ivana has the experience and on top of that also the necessary knowledge, wisdom and empathy in order to guide and help women after giving birth. To deal with the consequences of this miracle that life is. So that women can give their best to the newborn. So that the issues do not become chronic and that the recovery is efficient and healthy.
I was amazed by Ivana's approach and how she handles difficult issues that are very complex. The level that she brings to the table and to women is beyond this world. Because somehow humanity has managed to butcher this natural and the most magnificent thing into artificial and detached from the body. Giving birth is the most extraordinary experience of every life. And by creating fear, the fast track industry of cesarean cut (C-section), not listening to the needs of a pregnant woman, limiting and putting pressure with delusional informatio. Elevating adrenaline and cortisol levels and maneuvering into awkward positions during labor is all producing devastating consequences for life.
That is why it is my mission to bring this kind of information to the world. To shine a light on this amazing process and to stop catastrophic influences that are happening. Thanks to Ivana, we were able to present and explain the basic and the crucial aspects of what it means for women to be connected to their bodies. Before, during and after pregnancy. Especially the effect on the baby. A nervous mom creates a nervous baby. A well balanced, connected with the body and calm mom can create "miracles" and have a completely different experience. Without postpartum depression, chronic issues in the back, incontinence, breathing panic attacks. It can be life originated and serene.
You need the tools and guidance to enable the best life for yourself and your babies. In order to be in order and healthy. Not taking things as normal but changing and adapting to new levels. To create health as something normal. To do things as they should be done. Do take the time and put in the effort and energy to listen to this podcast that will change your life for the better.
02:55 Who is Ivana?
06:04 Mother of 4

Everything is possible with hard work and dedication. But is it? Only if and when you feel your body in order to input the right amount of pain and get the gain. The subjects that we touched with Stefan were deep and felt to the core, as pain is. A man with a lot of experience as a pro athlete. After all, he is a multiple world medal winner in ski racing.
So we dived deep into his quest for excellence on his journey towards success. How much of a price with his body he needed to pay? What were the triggers and situations where he began opening his eyes and the mind - body connection? Learning about his body and the nervous system saved him from going down with a bigger career ending injury. So he gradually reinvented himself and achieved results beyond. Now stepping into after career shoes, where he teaches others how to take care of their most precious asset - health.
Check out this episode where we explain the pressure that a pro athlete must endure and how he copes with it. More than interesting explanations that can be implemented even if you're not an athlete. Slowing down time and balancing the inside pressure with the external one. The answers do lie inside of us. We just need to be ready and open to look for them. To hear those answers that are life changing. Because we are all living in a world full of achievements and finding that right balance between the push and the flow.
Find out how Stefan is still in that search of the best adaptation. What are his traits and approaches that enable him to thrive while chopping away parts of him that do not serve anymore. The way he confronts limitations, before on the slopes going downhill more than 130km/h and now in life after his career. Now even more realizing that we have limited resources of life's energy and time. Learning how to relax his body and mind, when to be activated and how much.
01:29 Who is Stefan?
03:39 How does it feel being a gold, silver medal winner?
05:12 Would he be a skier, going down that path with what he knows now?
06:35 What is he doing differently now in life?
08:50 Professional sport and the body - mind disconnection
12:42 How did he manage to cope with the pressure?
17:59 How did he start to open and begin the quest for answers?
22:30 What was his positive trigger to start changing?
29:54 How was it for him when he started noticing changes and results?
31:21 What does the subconsciousness have to do with the body?
37:59 What pain level did he experience?
38:49 Contraction vs expansion & relax vs stretch
43:59 Who was Stefan before with no pain no gain, retraumatizing himself?
49:45 How is Stefan being now? Who is he now?

Tune in to get the full story of how Barbara & Matija managed to come out of being exhausted and injured. How they flipped it around by slowing down. And the last two years being a couple in a new way. Supporting each other and growing together. Now the goal is to be rested and prepared for any performance. As well to feel joy.

Enabling them to become healthier, wiser, profound with clients and as a couple as well.

Be ready to experience stability, wisdom and profoundness. Urban has transformed himself into a man that recognizes what is and what isn't. In this conversation he discusses the differences in between knowing or feeling your emotions. We dive into where in the body our emotions are stored. How can we release, acknowledge and accept them. Further on why is the nervous system wired that way to prevent anything new and stay in the familiar, predictable.
Staying in this familiar hell is demanding a high price on our body. You are responsible for your health by being proactive and changing yourself. Get all the instructions and views from Urban and myself. Having a teacher is of the utmost importance in order to get yourself in order. Being out of order is not healthy, on any level. Learning how to efficiently express emotions, thoughts and being in truth is the only way forward. Accepting depression to slow down and finding the root cause of your issues. Allowing yourself to feel and express, as a man and as a woman. In the end, no one is going to save you, but you yourself. As teachers are just showing you the mirror and guiding you on the path.
Is your sound the same as your picture? That is, are your spoken words the same as your body language - energy? Are you a people pleaser? Burnout, exhaustion, disconnection with your body. How to use time in order to achieve respect, responsibility, stability, trust, safety in a relationship? Changing your actions from ego and past auto pilot to new and efficient. What love is in 5 steps and fundamental things to comply with. Dive into this special and unique approach to life. Enjoy.

The most honest, sincere and vulnerable conversation I had in a long time. Niko has shown his greatness by talking about his struggles and wins in life. How he is dealing with situations, family, children, gym, clients, finances and his own shadows.
The importance of being aware of your own body's energy level is crucial. By missing off in this assessment you are bound to lose the battle sooner than later. Niko explains the AEQ method approach that made him into a responsible man, husband, father. That faced with him harsh truths of life and set him free at the same time.
The need to change turned into a desire to change holistically. Now he lives his talk more and more. Teaches others how to do so by listening to their body's signals. By this process becoming aware of one's own energy levels. With this in mind you set on the path quite differently. Enabling you to prioritize, divide, accomplish long term goals.
This also gives you the energy to be with the most hidden demons, emotions and feelings that reside in you. The energy to confront, communicate, correct, grow and evolve in life as a person. No more running away from feelings, even and especially as a man. Converting this constant pressure of escaping into relationship transformation.
We are all on the same boat of life. Tune into this podcast to get the latest and the best advice on how to confront life where it hurts the most. And to come out as a winner.
00:00 Who is Niko Akrap?
03:04 Who was he before he got involved with the AEQ method?
07:55 What was it like being responsible to him before?
16:51 How to deal with emotions?
25:16 Escaping the reality, avoiding vs acceptance and confronting
35:12 How are you understanding conscious awareness and the subconscious level?
49:26 Energy consumption with appropriate responses. Steps of the AEQ method.

Breaking out of the people pleasing character is extremely difficult. Especially in a team sport such as female football (soccer). Well, Adrijana is making her steps to being true to herself. To release the pressure of her shoulders. Acknowledging and respecting herself. The style of playing and behaving in order to honor her body, heart and soul. Not just the mind. Not just complying with the team, the coach, the teammates, or others.
She has gone through hell with injuries. Already experienced double time the ACL rupture in 5 years and in between a meniscus injury. Of course she is thinking "What the hell is wrong with me?", but also doing all the necessary steps in order to understand and recognise the hidden patterns. Those autopilot fears, doubts and thoughts that manifest such an unpleasant journey of an athlete.
Adrijana is making it. Being more and more stable, content, optimistic and full of joy. Before going back after the last injury to her love of playing football, she has shared what it means to train herself to be authentic. Not anymore going all in and full on. Not killing herself every training. But minding her body and abilities. Working smarter, not harder. I might add, she is becoming wiser.
Give yourself a chance to listen to Adrijana's path from suffering to enjoying and everything in between. How she's dealing with pressure now in comparison to the past. How she manages to shut off the negative mind chatter and focus on the essence of joyful playing.
Oh yes, we also touched many of the tabu themes and intricate subjects that many avoid. Not us. We went head on. About the male approach of coaching in a female sport. The period cycle and its effects on the body. Individual adaptation of training and especially emotional support that every woman needs. And most importantly that there is life outside of sport. That you are more than just an athlete and not the value of your results. Allowing yourself the freedom to play with joy. Coping with pressure and stress the new way.
How did she do all of it in her young career? Have a listen:
00:00 Who is Adrijana as a female footballer and a person?
02:28 How did she deal with the pressure of the matches before?
07:10 What happens after an injury? How does the male approach to training and playing create too much pressure?
11:56 What about the mentality no pain no gain? Where is the joy of playing?
15:05 How are coaches (not) dealing with emotional approach to women?
17:38 ACL injury, what needs to change in order to prevent injuries?
21:54 How hard is it to be injured?
23:09 Reasons why and how the female body is different from the male
27:54 How have you changed into the right way for yourself?
32:07 How much does interoception bring to you?
39:36 Trusting yourself and doing the right amount.
44:00 How to trust the messages of your body? Your own body.
51:50 Fear of injury, mental health issue. Fear of failure.
54:40 Advice. Be authentic and start to listen to your body.
57:03 How difficult is it for Adrijana to stand up for herself?
01:01:02 What is the consequence of not being a people pleaser? Self confidence
01:02:33 Last advice for everyone that is dealing with and hurting, having challenges.

What an amazing conversation with Tine about his evolution in life. How he made it out of the strong build muscle in a functional movement and if by need, also a soft man.
If you are in sports and like lifting heavy weights, then this is the right information for you. Especially in order to prevent any injury or chronic pain down the road. And you do not want that to happen, right?
So do give yourself the time to learn about the balance in and out of the gym. The importance of having a switch that controls your stress levels, which should be lower most of the time.
And the most important instruction on how to truly relax. Not just you imagining it or thinking that you are a relaxed person. But really learning, feeling and creating a life that enables you to be authentically relaxed.
This and much more is in the podcast and we are more than grateful for you listening and watching it:
00:00 Who is Tine? What happened to him to become who he is now
07:01 Training hard vs somatic movement dimension
11:26 Why are you going to the gym and lifting heavy weights?
15:47 Proper use vs abuse of sport
19:27 What happens after an injury? How to deal with chronic pain?
24:50 His evolution in contact with soft gentle slow movements
31:01 Holistic approach to clients
36:41 What is the main problem with his clients
40:11 Work life balance
44:50 What is somatics and the AEQ method
48:40 An authentic story of his soft core / shield off

Danijela has gone through tough situations in life. And those have made her into an amazing person as she is now. Full of life's experience, helping others to maneuver between chronic pain, postpartum effects, emotional dysregulation, nerve dysfunction and disorder.
It was a delight talking to her and listening to all her stories of how she brought herself to the brink of health collapse. Further on how she managed to heal and be fully functional as a wholesome being. Connected to her soul and acknowledging pain that she had to feel, respect and overcome.
From the AEQ method which gave her tools to cope and rely on. To integrating all of the nature laws, principles and mechanisms that govern life. Danijela has managed to come out as a strong but delicate woman. A woman that listens to her body, feelings and emotions. The woman that understands and eloquently explains mystical truths.
Give yourself the reward of paying attention, taking notes and really grasping what Danijela has to say. You will be grateful forever without exaggeration. And then find her or any other AEQ teacher on these links:

From being pressured by your own father, to becoming a loving dad as a new person.
From being an athlete that hates sport, to enjoying movement and teaching others how to move healthy.
From being full of rage and disgust in life, to expressing emotions in a mature and responsible way.
This and much more is the story of Jure Brekalo. Athlete, being on the wrong side of the law, combat fighting, navigation officer on a boat in the Caribbean, to a dad of twins and enjoying life.
Jure is from Croatia, Split. A city that has more Olympic medals than India and many other countries.
Jure has established himself as an AEQ method teacher. Listen to his story and the effects that the AEQ method had on him first of all. Learning how to deal with this inner pressure, emotional dysfunction, restlessness, hate, permanent feeling filter, being a people pleaser and creating a new version of himself. He has been doing the AEQ exercises since 2019 and completely changed himself.
Get ready for a hell of a story and learn a lot. Be inspired and moved to tears. Resonate with what he has to share and explain. Then join the AEQ movement programs and relax your old self away.
You are only one step away from a change.
