Slow Mornings
Today, I live in Mexico City, having built a life that once felt impossible. Building a new home, opening a wine bistro, and creating a career on my own terms.
My life looked perfect on paper, yet I felt trapped in a cycle that no longer resonated with me.
I left the perceived security of a prestigious career. I created a life that blends my ambition with authenticity, a new definition of success that includes a free time schedule while increasing my wealth, and drive with meaning.
A career that is aligned with my values.
behind the account
My life was not always aligned with my values while enjoying my work instead of drowning in it.
I know what it is like to attach your worth to a job title, to push through exhaustion, and to wonder if changing course means throwing everything away — all that hard work, that sacrifice.
However, I know what is possible.
I live it right now. The clarity of where I am going, the power of choosing how I spend my time (gosh I love it so much!), the ability of chasing spontaneous adventures. The confidence from redefining success with my own values and terms.
The Primer
Nerd living in Mexico City with a deep love for surfing, wine, and excel spreadsheets.
I had no roadmap. Just a deep need to build a life that felt as good as it looked. Through trial and error, I learned what truly fuels a fulfilling career — and what slowly drains the soul.
That is how Child of the Tides was born.
What I'm
loving
Early morning surfs, freediving in ocean safaris or exploring reefs, having slow mornings while enjoying my Americano on my rooftop and traveling, learning and
What I'm
learning
Being able to hold my breath above 3 minutes, how we see perceive fear and why our body has a similar reaction between seeing an wild animal or an email.
What I'm
not about
Running on fuel driven by existential angst.
what I
believe
You will figure it out, if you go for what you want, what you truly want and not what society expects you to achieve, you will figure it out.

If you're into career glow-ups, exchanging the fuel of existential angst, deep (but borderline funny) life insights, things I find funny + probably way too many surf and freediving analogies?
You've come to the right place.
