THE NEW MUSES, INTERVIEW WITH THOMASINE VON BODUNGEN
I BELIEVE THAT INNER WORK IS THE MOST IMPORTANT WORK WHEN IT COMES TO A PERSONAL BRAND.
WHY WE ADMIRE HER
We connected with Thomasine - a woman we truly admire for following her heart, for her entrepreneurship, for the life she has consciously created in Bali, for her vibrant spirit and clean aesthetic… we could go on forever. There is no coincidence that we chose to work with her as a creator.
Thomasine inspires meaningful mindset shifts and a deeper sense of wellbeing. She leads by example, showing us that life, work, and purpose can be shaped with intention.
She is a true role model and an expander.
We asked her three questions about her mindset, journey, and entrepreneurship.
WHO IS SHE?
Energy healer. Entrepreneur. Island girl. Wellness junkie. Intuitive coach. Pilates princess. Spiritual channel. Matcha addict. Sunset lover.
“Honestly, I'm just a girl who went through burnout and came out with a mission: to show a different way of doing life. Heart-led, soul-aligned, undeniably authentic.
Content creator at heart. Conscious creator at soul.
Or as Gordona Biernat so beautifully said it - “I am all that is - pure consciousness - experiencing itself through the passions and desires of Thomasine von Bodungen”.
HOW DO YOU MAINTAIN YOUR MINDSET AND INNER STABILITY?
“My mornings are sacred to me. It’s my time to reconnect with the truest me, and to not only set the tone for the rest of my day but the rest of my life. I truly believe that the more time we spend in a high frequency, the more of that we create - and morning time is when I realign with the energy I want to create from.
My non-negotiables;
Journaling: I’ve been journaling for years and follow my “Rewrite Your Story” framework. Everything I have today, I’ve at some point written into existence.
Meditation: what this looks like is always shifting, some days it’s only a few minutes of coming back to myself and my breath, and other days I’m in a period of deep inner work and follow a specific set of longer meditations every morning.
Mental health walks: Movement, nature, and an inspiring listen (activations, walking meditations, or podcasts) help me release stress and realign with a higher frequency every time!”
WHAT KEY MOMENTS SHAPED YOUR JOURNEY TO TODAY?
“Going through burnout when I was 25 changed my life, literally. It was by far the toughest, most challenging period of my life, but it also turned out to be the biggest blessing. I decided to let go of any idea of reality that had been conditioned to believe was the right one for me, and curiously, courageously create my own. I committed to live a life that lights me up, to listen to what makes me feel good, and to believe that everything is possible. “I am the creator of my own reality” became my mantra and still is to this day.
Moving to Bali changed my perception of what is possible, and of myself. I was surrounded by incredible, inspiring people from all over the world intentionally choosing the same path. It’s been one of the most expansive experiences of my life.
Launching my own coaching business in 2021 and working full-time with personal growth and spiritual alignment helped me understand what true alignment feels like.
Choosing to live in alignment with your higher truth and purpose is to choose a harder path, because it requires radical honesty, responsibility and inner work. It’s an endless process of aligning and realigning with the version of me I am becoming, and even if it’s deeply uncomfortable and discouraging at times - nothing has ever felt more worth it.”
WHAT KEY ACTIONS MOVED YOUR COMPANY TO WHERE IT IS TODAY?
“Honestly, it was never my dream to start my own business but divine guidance and serendipity made it happen for me - and now I can’t see how I would ever have it any other way. I believe that inner work is the most important work when it comes to a personal brand and/or business, and that when we trust in the nudge of our soul we are endlessly supported in fulfilling our purpose. I get that is sounds a bit woo-woo, but the most successful pivots and ideas in my business has always come from inner work and spiritual alignment. And in more challenging times, my conviction in my ability to create the life I want to live has kept me going even when it seemed like it wouldn’t work.”
