Tessy De Nassau - Former Princess of Luxembourg Finding Time For Yourself (Part 1) Beehive Podcast
-
- Home & Garden
Nataliya is joined by special guest Tessy Antony de Nassau, former HRH Princess of Luxembourg. She is the founder of and a partner in Finding Butterflies Consulting and co-founder of the charity Professors Without Borders, specialising in providing quality education all over the world.
They discuss Tessy’s homes in both London and Switzerland, what makes them special and why the experiences of life ultimately help us to grow if we take the time to listen to ourselves and understand the importance of how we communicate, present ourselves and respond to others.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
My home is where my heart is and I have several homes across the world.
The London home is a homage to my children, it’s a living time capsule. It’s warm, inviting and child friendly. It’s designed to make my children feel comfortable and has many items that reflect them.
My home in Switzerland is in the countryside so the house is much more connected to nature with lots of plants and classical paintings it’s much more grown-up for the children.
As long as you have a child inside you can see the curiosity and innocence in everything.
My happy place is the kitchen, I love cooking for my children, and wine with my friends. The living room is also very important because its where we spend family time together.
I journal in the morning to make sure all my thoughts are out of my head and I can start the day afresh.
I have a date with myself every day to see how I’m feeling, to check in with myself.
It all starts with you and you need to make yourself a priority.
If you find time for yourself you respect yourself.
Experiencing a burnout helped me to discover who I am. I had to learn to listen to myself, within silence you can learn to really hear.
We need challenging experiences to help us grow. I’m strong about my opinions and can express them without pushing others away, I invite others to consider a different perspective.
It’s all about the way you talk to and present yourself to other people.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Changing everything around in your home is a way of playfully bringing in the new’
‘I learned to be grateful for everything in my life’
‘My London home is the home of my children where they share their life with me
and we enjoy our lives here very much’
