🎯 Listener Challenges
🛠️ 1. Pursue a “quirky” interest you’ve been ignoring.
Eva talks about how her brother created gladiator armor and later stunning jewelry by following his odd teenage passions.
👉 Challenge: This week, carve out 1 hour to explore a creative hobby or curiosity—no matter how “nerdy” or “pointless” it may seem. Document the process.
🎭 2. Put on a new “hat” in social situations.
Eva discusses presenting different sides of herself depending on who she meets—singer, writer, thinker.
👉 Challenge: Introduce yourself in a way that highlights a part of your identity you’ve been downplaying (e.g., “I’m a storyteller,” not “I work in marketing”).
🧒 3. Give yourself permission to play.
She says people grow old when they stop playing. Her tango adventures on tabletops are proof of living playfully.
👉 Challenge: Schedule a “play date” for yourself—a dance class, improv night, or something spontaneous that brings joy with no agenda.
🎨 4. Do something beautiful, not useful.
Eva believes beauty and art are powerful acts of rebellion against utilitarianism.
👉 Challenge: Create or experience something beautiful this week—write a poem, visit an art gallery, dress up for no reason. Let it be purely for pleasure.
📜 5. Rewrite your life’s “script.”
She rejects autopilot living and encourages crafting your own path.
👉 Challenge: Take 30 minutes to journal what “your script” has been so far. Then write one paragraph of a new chapter—what you want the next 6 months to look like.
🌱 6. Say “yes” to the thing that scares you.
Eva’s whole life is about bold reinvention.
👉 Challenge: Identify one area where fear is holding you back—starting a project, sharing your work, or quitting something draining. Take the first tiny step this week.
🎨 7. Do One Playful Thing — Just Because:
Pick an activity this week that brings you joy without a goal — painting, dancing, singing, or anything fun. No productivity allowed.
📝 8. Redefine Yourself on Paper:
List 3 identities you currently hold… then write 3 new ones you’d like to explore. What roles are you ready to step into?
📅 9. Design Your Day With Intention:
Look at your daily routine. Where can you build in more beauty, joy, or creativity? Schedule it like it matters — because it does.
🔥 10. Embrace One Discomfort Zone:
Choose something that scares or stretches you — a bold conversation, creative risk, or new experience. Step in and see what changes.
🎙️ 11. Share a Story That Matters to You:
Whether it’s through writing, a voice memo, or a conversation — tell a story from your life that feels raw and real. That’s how connection starts.
