What small detail holds everything big together in your life?
We live running after what’s important: projects, promotions, results. We always want more: more income, more opportunities, more recognition. And without realizing it, we lose the only thing that actually gives meaning to all of it.
Let me share something very personal. Every year, for about six to eight weeks, my life turns into a rolling adventure: my family — including our dog Trufa since this year — and I live in a tiny trailer, moving from camping to camping, exploring national parks. Five people sharing less than three meters of hallway. Minimal indoor space, basic comforts, and maximum nature. My life gets reduced to the essentials. Beautiful experiences, yes… and plenty of discomfort compared to the life one usually has in a fixed home.
But this year, after seven seasons of doing this,I added to my list of things I bring with me, something that has seriously changed my experience: my shower glove! Haha yes, just like you read.
A simple exfoliating glove. Cheap, light, nothing fancy. It may sound silly, insignificant, or even a weird little fetish for some of you (haha!), but for me, every shower — no matter how short or cold — with that glove is a ritual of renewal. So now, something I enjoy so much in my non-rolling life, I’m also enjoying during my rolling life.
That glove reminds me every single day that I can simplify almost everything… but never lose sight of what truly keeps me grounded, what gives my life meaning, what I need to stay in good energy, and what helps me push through the tasks I don’t like (or don’t love) but still need to get done — the ones I can’t just multiply by zero, haha!
In your career, it’s the same thing. It’s not just about cutting down meetings, saying “no”, or cleaning up your calendar. It’s about deciding what you’re not willing to let go of, no matter how small it is. That tiny thing holds your clarity, your motivation, and your energy to “keep showing up.”
As a Career Coach, I support professionals who want to re-organize their work life: less noise, less drain, more focus, more energy, more drive. But with me, you won’t just stay stuck in reflection.
With me, you take real action:
You identify what gives you meaning and what you never want to lose.
You simplify what’s unnecessary.
You create a realistic plan — no excuses.
You make brave, sustainable decisions that lead to real results.
And no — this won’t just be “one more thing” on your endless to-do list that you want to run away from.
Tell me: What do you want to simplify in your career? What’s your “shower glove” — that small detail that gives meaning to everything else and you refuse to let go of? And what will you do today to start protecting it?
If you feel it’s time to reconnect with the essentials, get back on track, and design a career that’s truly aligned with the life you want, send me a message and let’s talk. Let's make it happen!
It won’t just be another nice, feel-good chat — it will be your first step toward clear, actionable decisions.
