  From UN Career to Dancing Around The World: A Search for True Happiness

  Aug 4, 202644 minS1

  What if the life you’ve always wanted isn’t found by achieving more, but by becoming more yourself? In this episode of Beyonder – The Podcast , your host Vee sits down with author, speaker, and happiness expert Alienor to explore how travel, dance, and authentic living can become powerful tools for personal growth and self-discovery.After researching happiness at the United Nations, Alienor realized that despite having what many would consider a dream career, something was missing. She made the bold decision to leave her job, travel across eight countries, and learn 18 different dance styles — from salsa in Colombia and tango in Argentina to samba in Brazil. That journey didn’t just change where she lived; it completely transformed how she defined success, happiness, and what it means to live a life that truly feels like your own.Together, we explore why so many people stay stuck in lives that no longer fit, how one decision can change your entire outlook, and why human connection is one of the most important ingredients for a fulfilling life.

  What If You’re Looking for Purpose in the Wrong Place?

  Jul 28, 202615 minS1

  For years, we’ve been told that we need to find our purpose . The perfect career. The one thing we’re meant to do. The calling that will finally make everything click. But what if that’s the wrong question? In this solo episode of Beyonder – The Podcast , your host Vee explores why purpose isn’t something you have to discover in one job or one identity. Instead, she shares a different perspective that completely changed how she thinks about meaning, fulfilment and happiness: the difference between searching for your purpose in life and reflecting on the purpose of life . Drawing on her own journey — from immigration lawyer to travel coach, life coach, meditation teacher, Zumba instructor, podcast host and more — she explains why purpose can evolve throughout your life and why that isn’t something to fear, but something to embrace. In this episode, we explore: Why your career doesn’t have to define your purpose The difference between your purpose in life and the purpose of life Why joy and fulfilment don’t have to wait for some future destination How to stop putting pressure on yourself to have everything figured out Simple ways to bring more meaning into your everyday life Why following curiosity and small sparks of joy often leads to a more fulfilling path If you’ve been feeling lost, questioning your career, wondering whether you’re on the “right” path, or putting pressure on yourself to find your calling, this episode offers a gentler and more empowering perspective. Sometimes the purpose you’ve been searching for isn’t another job, another achievement or another destination. Maybe it’s learning how to fully experience the life you’re already living.

  Jul 14, 202613 minS1

  Have you ever felt like you don’t fully belong even when you’re surrounded by people or living in a place you once dreamed of? In this episode of Beyonder – The Podcast , your host Vee explores why belonging is about so much more than finding the right city, relationship, or community.

Whether you’re navigating a life transition, living abroad, feeling lonely, or simply searching for a deeper sense of connection, this episode offers a new perspective on what belonging truly means and practical reflections to help you create it in your own life. In this episode, you’ll discover: ✨ Why belonging isn’t something you find, it’s something you create ✨ The three dimensions of belonging and how they work together ✨ How to build a stronger connection with yourself ✨ Why meaningful relationships matter, but aren’t the whole answer ✨ A simple reflection exercise to discover which area of belonging needs your attention most If this episode resonates with you, subscribe, leave a review, or share it with someone who might need this conversation. ✨ Want to explore identity, belonging and purpose more deeply?
