Fleeting Thoughts

In den letzten 6 Monaten habe ich Kurse belegt und Seminare besucht, ich habe an meiner Website gearbeitet, ich habe Visitenkarten besorgt und Flugblätter gedruckt. Ich habe Schritte unternommen, um sichtbar zu werden.
Sichtbar werden. Das ist die größte Herausforderung. Es geht hier um mehr, als mich in die dunklen Abgründen des World Wide Web zu wagen.
Hallo!!! Ist da draußen jemand? Und wenn ja, könntet ihr bitte nett sein?
Ich frage euch: Findet ihr es nicht beängstigend, hier rauszukommen? Raus in die kalte, stille Dunkelheit des Unbekannten? Die Sozialen Medien, wo Horden von hässlichen kleinen Trollen hinter jeder Ecke warten, bereit, sich auf dich zu stürzen? Bereit, dich in Stücke zu reißen und zu zerstören, wenn du eine andere Meinung als sie vertrittst? Ich lese die Schlagzeilen, ich weiss Bescheid.

Over the past 6 months I have taken courses and visited seminars, I have worked on my website, I got business cards and printed flyers. I have taken steps to become visible.
Becoming visible. That's the biggest challenge. Not just showing myself in the dark abyss of the word wide web.
Helllllooooo!! Is anybody out there? And if yes, could you please be kind?
I am asking you: Don't you find it scary coming out here? Out into the cold, silent darkness of the unknown? Social Media, where hoards of ugly little trolls wait behind every corner, ready to jump on you? Ready to rip you apart and to destroy you if you express an opinion that is different to theirs? I do read the headlines, you know.

Hi, my name is Pia Hyppönen. I have a colourful past, had different jobs since I was 18. I learned something on all of them, but never stayed long enough to have a career.
My business idea started with a name: Holistication (a kind of acronym of my Holistic view on life and my M. A. in Lifelong Learning and Adult Education.)
In the summer of 2021, I moved to Joensuu and looked for a job. The question "What can you do?" got me thinking and I decided to put all the things I love into one basket: lifelong learning, drama, language, encouraging and empowering people, et voilà - Dramatic Language Coaching. The one thing I didn't know anything about was "business". In the past that (not knowing something) would have stopped me. This time I took business courses, visited seminars and started listening to those who know more about the topic.
Over the past 25 years I have gotten rid of my fear of making mistakes, I became teachable and open to new ways of living my life. If I could do it, you can do it too. And if you can't yet, I'll be happy to help you.
None of us is going to get out alive. But until then we can have a life.
My mottos:
Be true to yourself. Love what you do. Do what you love. Today.
Nothing in life is set in stone, once it is, I'm six feet under.
