Meet The Founder

Hi, I am Magdalena. Like yourself, I am a seeker too. I would love to understand more, to take action to feel better, to search and practice modalities that help myself grown, stand tall in my values and also heal parts of me that would need just that. ​

I envision this platform to become one of your favourite “virtual homes” where you,just like me, would rely on each other to commit our kind voice to express authentically.​

I would love to bring on OneKindVoice as much as I am can from all that have supported on my path so far. I am here to encourage both deep listening and free self-expression with kindness. I might not have full rounded answers to all there is to seek deep down in oneself, however I can say firmly that once we start more paths will be open and will bloom. Friendships will be formed, new teachers and teachings will be found, community will be born and evolve, a sense of being better will emerge, bringing a lot of goodness together. ​

This will remain a dynamic space where we can evolve together as humble students.

I grew up in Eastern Europe and found myself magnetized towards Asia shores with now more than 20 years building a life in Hong Kong. I draw all my inspiration from my ancestors, my family, the friends and family far from home and have been always attracted by self-teaching, developing my own coping skills and further understanding whenever the life got harder or challenging. One way to do so was reading. I have found myself in novels, poems, philosophy, eastern teachings or mystiques teachings, reiki and energy work. The journey or learning through experience turned step by step into a steady practice of contemplation and silence, of finding my inner space and quieting my mind in nature or in the very early hours of everyday. I simply long for being on my own at least one hour a day. Sit and do nothing. Listen to nothing. This practice resources me back in ways hard to describe. Adding gratitude to this, adding deeper breathing techniques, slowly slowly I realized these are practices I would very much love to pay forward. To share with new seekers, to share with folk like me go at time through anxiety, panic attacks, deep losses and sorrow or pain. To share some of my learnings so far and master together some of the tools that can be implemented an blended in to our daily life.

Occasional practices have their role at a moment in time, however my biggest learning would be that steady practice and determination to trust in oneself and the power of our own magic resources will open new avenues of content.

Why now?

I would love to say that I gain some sageness along the way. Sage-age one might argue.

Honouring here first and foremost my parents. They are trained builders. They have built factories, houses, they have build a life for their kids with whatever they had shared in full generosity.I have seen first hand how something is built. You dig first to establish a solid foundation, then adding the blocks, the bricks, the metal framework pillars to sustain a long lasting structure. Our home took years of building, and it might be far from perfect. The most important value is that it offers a safe shelter for generations to come. We witnessed the sweat and tears that has gone into this. While building the home, you also consider a garden and add your favourite flowers, then you might add orchard trees to give you seasonal fruits. Deep down you also know that there is always a path lit up taking you back to your home, whenever you might need that resource in physical terms or simply visualizing your are there. To know what it takes to build a foundation, has offered me quite an early insight and lesson in patience, dedication, resilience and never focus on the perfect outcome or ruch the timeline. You can always take your time to add your personal touch, to keep the space dynamic.

Why roses?

They grow in all our gardens. They make our life beautiful. They also have thorns. They represent beauty and attention to me. ​

Honouring The Teachers

Why this platform? ​

I am offering this platform as a live testimonial to my teachers. The sages who wrote wonderful books and promoted a wealth of practices to understand ourselves better so we can become one with our authentic and kind self. ​

Equally also to my direct mentors whose courses I have taken for now more than five years.​

As a fresh alumni of Mindfulness Meditation Teaching Program, I am dedicating first the launch of OneKindVoice platform to the founders Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield who have created such a powerful teaching and learning platform. Not only we have been held by their powerful presentations and grew month by month, but also we were supported by so many wonderful mentors and teachers ,and fellow students and peers from so many traditions and teachings from buddhist psychology and philosophy, to neuroscience, the practice of metta and loving kindness, compassion and self-compassion, inclusivity and diversity, non-violent communication - just to name few key pillars. ​

Why kind? ​

Simply because I believe we need more of it. Simply because we can practice more of it ourselves, towards ourselves and towards anyone we meet during any given day. Simply because it can change your mood, you can touch someone’s life in a very benefic way without even knowing. We can make an impact by using our voice kindly. Let’s try to do this as ONE, together. ​
