Thank you, Trach.

It's weird. Yesterday when I got back to my workouts after the business trip, my new trainer greeted me as if I was her old friend, because we somehow "connected".

For those who don't know me so well, my new boxing/ kickboxing trainer is a multiple national champion, European champion and world kickboxing champion.

So, some part of me is not intimidated by a world-class athlete. I don't feel inadequate or fundamentally flawed. I feel like a person who needs to work on her skills. And who is willing to put work and efforts to get better.

At the same time, there is a huge part of me which is intimidated by pretty much everything in everyday life.

It doesn't make sense to me. And it drives me crazy.
