Introducing: The model of CNNCT

Dear you,

First of all I want to thank you for taking the time to visit my freshly launched website and read one of the most important blogs I will ever share: the introduction of The model of CNNCT.

It is been a bumpy ride to get here, I won’t deny that. I want to share my story. But, in order to do that I had to step out of my comfort zone as writer. I could no longer hide in my bedroom. Writing all night long surrounded by candles and covered with blankets that keep my body warm and comfortable. No… I had to step up my game.

So I did. I stepped into my role as entrepreneurial writer. I stepped into my role as CNNCT’er.

I… Stepped not just into any role… I stepped into my soul purpose.

How it all started

In the summer of 2020 I was pregnant of my first son. It was the most beautiful time of my life, but also the most challenging. I was burned out and suffered from intense anxiety. I hit rock bottom when I was almost 16 weeks pregnant, but looking back at that period… Symptoms started to appear in the winter of 2019. I crossed my own limits for way too long, I pushed myself and… I ignored myself. And this challenging time? Was a reality check. A reality check to take a step back, to start understanding myself, to start choosing myself and last but not least… To start connecting with myself.

It was a true wake-up call, an eyeopener. And even though it was challenging, I would do it all over again. Because today, while I am writing this… I feel more confident than ever. Because now I know my triggers, now I know the moments I have to be more cautious, now I know when it is important to be kind for myself and now I know when I have to focus on myself, and myself only.

Two years of experience, written on paper. Two years of knowledge, engraved in my memory. And I want to share this with you.

As I have been writing since a little kid, I wrote down everything. The thoughts, the feelings, the inspiration, the learnings… Literally; everything. Two years of content we would say, the digital generation. But it truly is. Two years of experience, written on paper. Two years of knowledge, engraved in my memory. And I want to share this with you. I want to support, inspire and empower people. People who experience the same, people who feel misunderstood, people who feel alone. Because guess what? You are not alone. Neither of us is.

And that… Is not only when I discovered my soul purpose, but when I slowly started to visualise The model of CNNCT. A model to help you to understand yourself, a model to discover yourself, and… A model to connect with yourself.

The model of CNNCT

Throughout the past years I discovered several elements that are important to connect with yourself and live life according to your definition of success. Because I believe that all of us deserve this: to live a life that you want to live, not a life that society tells you to live. I can write a lot (oh yes, I can) but, it felt easier to bring the elements to life. So, let me introduce to you: The model of CNNCT.

The 10 elements

In total there are 10 elements, divided into internal and external ones. The internal elements are ‘the I’ and three questions to answer. The external elements are divided into the energy givers and takers, the inner circle, the career, the investment and the support.

And, once you connect with yourself, you dare to make a shift within the external elements.

If you understand your internal elements, you understand yourself. You might be able to connect with yourself. And, once you connect with yourself, you dare to make a shift within the external elements. With shift I mean choose, filter, add or maybe eliminate. All in order to create an environment that not only serves you, but an environment in which you can live the life you want to live… All while being connected with yourself.

Love,  

Evy.
