When Covid hit Costa Rica in March 2020, I paused all my activities and offered free mentoring to help people out through a short crisis
After two months of helping out the community (and restin), I realized the pandemia was going to be longer than expected so I re-focused on myself and my business
In May 2020, I decided to move my restaurant from the Beach to the Capital City
I was told by real estate agents that what I’m looking for is impossible for the price I’m willing to pay
Within 3 weeks I found the impossible gem: a beautiful 500m2 house with two gardens in the perfect location for the price I wanted (about 1/3 of the normal value)
By end the end of June I successfully moved my restaurant 5h away from where I originally was, built an entirely new kitchen and got all my business licenses sorted out
The pandemic hit Costa Rica really hard in July so the entire country was on red alert and I couldn’t open even tough I was ready
I received my first order for 2 sets of 5 gourmet ice creams mid-July and I served my first dinner in the new location on 9 Aug 2020
While this was happening, I got a TV Show in the process of creation, and I’ve been asked to record 2 pilots for a podcast to be broadcasted on the BBC
As I’m writing this, my 9th book is now ready to be published and my 10th book is being edited
Then I got asked by several people to create a mentoring program to help them grow their business and expand their life during the Covid era
So I created this 3 months one on one mentoring program to help entrepreneurs, creators freelancers and artists through this global crisis
For this program, I can take a maximum of 10 people, and as I write this, I already have 2 people I started working with so there are 8 spaces left as of now
I’m excited to go on an exciting adventure with you and explore how you will create magic from this global crisis
