Intro
0:00It's such immense pain that you're
0:01almost on the verge of death . But at
0:03the same time , you're flooded with such
0:05love . I had throat problems for two
0:08years . I wore blue . I clung to
0:12everything . I remember one morning when
0:16I felt like , damn it , I'm not going to
0:17get out of bed again . I won't get up
0:20today , not today . Nothing makes sense
0:24anymore , that I don't give a damn about
0:26all these therapies anymore , I don't
0:28give a damn about all the
0:29physiotherapists I go to , the
0:30acupuncturists , the healers , the
0:32shamans . I truly believed in angels . I
0:36still do , and I know they're watching
0:38over me . No way .
0:41Hi , I'm Martyna , and this is my podcast

1:01you . My guest today is Olga Kalicka , an
Kto to jest Olga Kalicka? Kim jest mama z Rodzinki.pl?
1:04actress and entrepreneur , mother of two
1:06: seven-year-old Aleksy , who just
1:08started first grade , and one-year-old
1:11Aniela . Hi Olga .
1:12Hi . Um , just a second ago we were
1:17discussing , discussing , what the , uh ,
1:19order of life roles should be . And now
1:25the question is , how are you feeling
1:27most at this moment ? What is your
1:29strongest role at this moment ? You know
1:32what I think ? It seems to me that it
1:34migrates a bit in my life . So it's
1:38clear to me that first I'm always Olga
1:40myself , then most often Olga my partner
1:42, then Olga my mom ,
1:46and only then an actress , right ? But
1:50sometimes there are months , maybe even
1:52short periods , when being an actress
1:54takes center stage , and then I focus on
1:56my work . But it's amazing in my life ,
2:04I'll tell you , that it all works out
2:06this way , that all these links , these
2:08parts of me , are so completely
2:09interconnected , that I am all of these
2:11things simultaneously and
2:12simultaneously . It's just
2:19that I'm here with you today , and I
2:20know this is part of my work . It gives
2:24me immense joy , because before we even
2:26turned on the camera , we'd already
2:28chatted , and it's like — so — it's like
2:30these two parts of me are merging : the
2:32girly one who loves gossip , and the one
2:34who came here to talk a little about
2:36her work , maybe . But at the same time ,
2:39in the back of my mind , I still
2:40remember that it's Alexy's first day of
2:42school today , and I had to take him out
2:44for lunch this morning , and I was
2:45completely clueless about it . We were
2:47supposed to ride bikes , but we ended up
2:49driving anyway , because if we were
2:50going to go on like this , and as we ran
2:52out , Alex said , " Where's my bag , my
2:54shoes , and so on ? " And on the other
2:56hand , I think to myself , Aniela's good ,
2:58she's probably taking a nap right now ,
3:00so it's okay . You know , it's like this :
3:03the mind is so unsettled , there's this
3:06constant self-disorder . You really
3:11know what I think , I think most mothers
3:12are like that . Because you know how to
3:16navigate between one role and another
3:18and a third , if you really want to
3:19perform all those roles . um , in the
3:21best possible way , because obviously we
3:23always want to do them to the best of
3:25our ability . But actually , I'm also
3:28curious , if you were to take off all
3:30those , um , roles , right ? Because you
3:33said , first of all , I'm Olga Kalicka .
3:36So who is Olga Kalicka without , um , if
3:38she's not a mother , if she's not an
3:40actress , if she's not a partner ? Who
3:43are you ? What do you like ? What's your
3:47core ? I think it's like I'm constantly
3:50exploring it , and I'm constantly
3:52learning something new about myself .
3:56And the more challenges arise in my
4:01life , caused by the roles I fulfill ,
4:07the more I learn about myself . For
4:14example , what I already know about
4:16myself is that , on the one hand , we've
4:18both talked about being lions , so
4:19there's that power that lions have
4:21within us —
4:26that intense expression , that need to
4:28express myself , that need to be with
4:30people . I still have it within me , but
4:37what I've learned over the years and
4:39what my surroundings have forced me to
4:40do is to be able to go deep within
4:42myself and feel such tenderness for
4:44myself . And there are moments when I'm
4:54able to , if all these other aspects of
4:56my life are taken care of and I provide
4:58myself with a backup that , you know ,
5:00everything is safe , there are moments
5:02when I'm alone with myself , able to
5:04feel what I want and what is , where I'm
5:14everything in it , without fulfilling
5:16all these roles . But generally , it's
5:23like we're here on Earth to play these
5:24roles , because it's a kind of theater ,
5:26and we're these pawns who have to
5:28fulfill various tasks here . So whenever
5:33I get angry that reality is sometimes
5:35difficult for me or a challenge , I
5:37think to myself : okay , I'm getting up
5:39for this task , because this is my task
5:41for now . Well , it's a bit like The
5:44Truman Show . I have to go back to that
5:51movie , but you know what , you said
5:52something very interesting here : in
5:54this whole theater thing we call life ,
5:56you actually learn to discover yourself
5:58and who you really are through the
5:59challenges you face . I think that's
6:05very interesting and very true and
6:06beautiful . And I'm curious , then , what
6:11situation , I don't know , maybe in the
6:13last year made you learn more about
6:19yourself . You know what , there are a
6:24whole lot of these situations , because
6:27in the last year and a half , basically ,
6:29because Aniela is now 15 , oh , 16 months
6:31old tomorrow , not the day after . So ,
Odkrywanie siebie przez macierzyństwo
6:35she'll be eighteen months old soon . And
6:39it's always such an interesting time
6:40for a mother . First , there's pregnancy ,
6:45when there's such total focus on
6:47building a person and all other things
6:49fall by the wayside . Then there's that
6:53first year of a child's life , which is
6:55always a huge transformation for a
6:56woman and makes me think , for example ,
6:58that what I learned , I already thought
7:00I was a mother and that nothing would
7:02change . I'd just be a mother of two
7:05children , no way . And suddenly it
7:08turned out that's not the case at all ,
7:09because every child introduces a new
7:11dynamic into your life . It makes me
7:18think , for example , that Alex is a
7:19volcano of energy , a kid who just
7:21walked in here , I don't know how long
7:23all those tripods would be in place ,
7:25because he'd probably be hanging from a
7:27lamp , right ? And he'd be asking 100
7:32questions and everything . Aniela simply
7:40has such a gentleness and such a
7:41sweetness that she completely softened
7:43me and showed me new qualities in
7:45motherhood
7:51and revealed to me completely different
7:53aspects of what motherhood can be , in
7:54connection with what kind of mother I
7:56can also be .
8:00And that's definitely the last year .
8:04You know , those first six months , it's
8:05all about caring for such a little baby
8:07. There's not much verbal contact , but
8:11a lot of that more magical , energetic
8:13connection , like the baby is already
8:15outside your body , and yet you're still
8:17one with it . It's absolutely amazing .
8:22It really is so magical . But overall ,
8:26she sounds like such a gentle and kind
8:28teacher ; it was all so soft , just as
8:30you described it . But you also told me
8:36something before we turned on the
8:38cameras here , about labor : that for you
8:39, giving birth with Aniela was one of
8:41the most beautiful experiences you've
8:43ever had . I was surprised because it
8:50seemed to me that childbirth couldn't
8:52be such a traumatic event . And the
8:55question is , what kind of birth was it
8:57that made you perceive it so magically ?
9:01I'll tell you , it all depends largely
9:03on our attitude and how we frame the
9:10experience with our own thoughts , as it
9:16were , because I've had two births , and
9:18in retrospect , both were exceptional .
9:23What I managed to do with my second
9:25birth was to demystify my thoughts
9:26about the first and realize that it
9:28wasn't as traumatic as I'd thought for
9:29years . Because when I started to
9:34explore labor in general , what it's
9:41like , what phases it has — even from a
9:43medical , physiological perspective —
9:45what phases it has , what you need to do
9:47in each phase , how to help your body
9:49relax . Because I really wanted to give
9:54birth without anesthesia , both the
9:55first and second time , although the
9:57first time , I don't
10:00know , I just wanted to experience it as
10:03it is .
10:04Oh , wow .
10:05Yup , that's how I felt . I'm generally ,
10:09you know , very cautious with medicine
10:11and medications . I always first seek
10:16out all possible — perhaps not
10:17alternative , because that's always a
10:19tricky word — natural methods .
10:22And only when they run out do I open
10:24myself to medicine , because it's there
10:26for a reason , and I completely bow to
10:29it , because sometimes there's just no
10:31other way , and it's great that these
10:33medications exist and you can take them
10:34. But I always decide on all natural
10:37methods first , and I also felt that I
10:39wanted to experience these births very
10:41naturally . And look , when I gave birth
10:44to Alexei , I wasn't completely
10:46conscious yet . M. Well , I still had to
10:50go through this whole path of personal ,
10:52spiritual , I don't know , esoteric ,
10:54energetic , and all that . But it was
11:00Alexei who put me on this path . You see
11:03, it's very interesting , so he was the
11:05first impulse , because he wasn't so
Poród naturalny bez znieczulenia i mistyczne doświadczenie
11:07challenging at every stage of his life .
11:10He
11:14was both a man and my beloved little
11:15son , so he was challenging , and he has
11:17so much masculine energy within him
11:19that it's simply amazing . And he made
11:25me simply learn something new about
11:27myself over and over again , with him ,
11:29at every stage , to explore how I felt
11:31about it . I , you know , sought advice
11:36from different people ,
11:40and I still do , and with him , it wasn't
11:42so organic for me , but rather always
11:44such a big challenge , but after all ,
11:46he's still my mirror , right ? And he
11:52often simply showed me things I didn't
11:53want to know about myself , things I
11:55know a little more about today . But
12:01getting back to childbirth , because I
12:03want to finish this thought , it's also
12:05like , it was a difficult experience for
12:06me , I didn't know what to expect either
12:08. Well , I didn't get a doctorate in
12:11that at the time , you know ? I didn't do
12:13this work before giving birth , so I
12:15didn't know , so it all surprised me ,
12:17and I kind of had the attitude that if
12:18every woman has been through this , I
12:20will too . And it turns out that when
12:24you prepare for it to the fullest and
12:25know what's going to happen , what you
12:27can do about it , what the options are ,
12:29and so on , it turns out it doesn't have
12:31to be like that . And with all that
12:39preparation and knowledge , despite the
12:41immense pain , the experience of being
12:43on the verge of life and death . And
12:49what I said in front of the cameras ,
12:51but I want to repeat , is that it's such
12:52immense pain that you're almost on the
12:54verge of death . You think so because
12:59it's such pain , but at the same time ,
13:01you're flooded with such love and the
13:03power of a woman who gives life ,
13:09that it's as if you transform that pain
13:11into this damn love that's
13:12indescribable . It's so immense that you
13:17can't even comprehend it . As we sit now
13:23, it's unfathomable until you feel it ,
13:25how immense it is , and it's as if
13:27you're transforming yourself to bring
13:28life into the world . It's so strange ,
13:36even as I'm talking about it now , but
13:37once you experience it , you'll feel
13:39that it's an experience that no one can
13:47take away from you , and yet it will
13:49always stay with you . And now , every
13:53time I look at my daughter , I think to
13:55myself : " You are part of me , and it's
13:57the same with Alexei . You are a piece
14:01of me , and I felt it in my body
14:06through conscious preparation for it ,
14:08right ? But also as if experiencing it
14:10at every stage , right ? So , it's as if
14:13this natural birth also allowed me to
14:15experience it fully .
14:17If you're still listening to this
14:18conversation and think it's valuable ,
14:20I'd be grateful for a comment and a
14:21thumbs up .
14:22Wow . I mean , it sounds like this , and
14:25really , how do you describe it ? This is
14:29probably the first time I've seen such
14:31a perspective , this almost mystical , um
14:33, of this birth , because it is , because
14:35it is one of the most mystical
14:37experiences of my life . I don't know
14:43how to put it into words , but I think
14:44it's like you talk about your
14:46experiences related to , I don't know ,
14:48meditations , in which you are very
14:49strongly connected to the source . It's
14:55like this , it's similar . But then
14:59there's this physical , this physical
15:00aspect ,
15:03well , you can feel it as if later with
15:05your body , through this ,
15:07you're still constantly on this
15:08borderline , that on the one hand ,
15:12there's no longer a moment in labor
15:14that every midwife knows when , that the
15:16baby will be born soon , because the
15:18woman says she can't cope anymore .
15:21Yes .
15:22Yes . That at some point you give up
15:24because you think to yourself , " I can't
15:25cope anymore . " That it's like , " I'm
15:28just going to die soon and let this
15:30baby be born , but I can't , I can't
15:31anymore . " And that's when , and right
15:35after that , the baby is born ,
15:40because that's just it , that's it ,
15:42that's this magical , mystical border
15:44between life and death ,
15:48when you feel like you're letting go
15:49and giving life . Well , it's , I don't
15:52know , it's just like that ,
15:57Olga , but for me now ... I just feel what
15:59you're saying in my whole body , because
16:01it really reminded me of how , for
16:03example , we really want something in
16:05life , whether it's our goals , our
16:07professional dreams , Whatever it is ,
16:09we're pushing so hard , we just want it
16:11with all our being to make it happen ,
16:13and it's just — there's no way —
16:15there's this resistance all the time .
16:21And very often , it's only when we let
16:23go that this situation suddenly arises .
16:27Literally , like a beautiful , beautiful
16:29analogy , in my opinion .
16:31Yes . And it's the same , and it's like
16:33in childbirth , and you know , it also
16:35applies to m . I was just talking about
16:38the fact that when , I don't know , I had
16:40another theater premiere or some
16:41important project , it was also born .
16:44Mhm . And it's also about sometimes you
16:49have to let go of a lot of things , but
16:50there's that moment when you have to
16:52move forward , that is , push , right ?
16:56To move it forward , because it depends
16:58on you , right ? How a given situation
17:01resolves . So , I think that in general ,
17:08in our lives , it's a bit about having
17:10this method — I think it's probably the
17:12late Professor Łomnicki's , which we
17:13were told about in college . Mhm .
17:20I hope that Now , I'm not lying , but I
17:22think Łomnicki had a rule , excuse me ,
17:24I'll swear , it , let it go , which
17:26was based on building the role , right ,
17:28and the fact that in a given character
17:34there were moments when you had to burn
17:36it out , then let it go , and then burn
17:37it out again a little , and then let it
17:39go . I mean , and in my opinion , it's
17:42like that in life . You have moments
17:44when you have to let it go , and then
17:46you have to push , because otherwise you
17:47won't move forward .
17:48Yes , I absolutely agree with that . But
17:51you know what , in the context of what
17:52you're
17:55saying , it also really reminded me of
17:57the fact that you yourself said that
17:59for years you had a really big period
18:00of stagnation when it came to your
18:02professional sphere in the context of
18:04acting . And you said something like ,
18:09and I quote , I had a lot of work . It
18:14was about this kind of internal work ,
18:16to dig into certain things . And now , in
18:19fact , you have your first leading role
18:24in a movie since the girls from Dubai .
18:26Well , that's a huge success .
18:28Rodzinka.pl is back on screens , and I'm
18:31curious . We'll also talk about your new
18:34film in a moment , because I'm very
18:35intrigued by it . But now I'd like to
18:42ask you what you had to understand and
18:44what you had to change and transform
18:45about yourself for this role to come to
18:47you , for your professional life to take
18:49off . You know what , I think it was
18:59mainly like this , m , that y , when
19:01Aleksy appeared , it was like the first ,
19:03m , the first moment when my old world
19:05collapsed , the one I'd built on the
19:06idea that I was Olga the actress , that
19:08I was fulfilling my dreams since
Kryzys zawodowy, zmiana priorytetów i psychosomatyka
19:10childhood , that I had a great career ,
19:12that I graduated from my dream
19:14university , that I was on Dancing with
19:16the Stars , that I simply hosted a
19:17mega-show on Polsat , that I was
19:28somewhere very , very , very outside .
19:32Everything in my life was outside , and
19:34nothing was inside . And suddenly a
19:37child appeared , who made it completely
19:39inside , inside , and within me . No ? And
19:43it changed me every day , that I didn't
19:45even know what was happening . No , I
19:47mean , when I understood , okay , I'm
19:49pregnant , but pregnancy isn't an
19:51illness , right ? And that was the first ,
19:56very powerful moment when I had to
19:58reevaluate my life ,
20:01that I was bringing a second life into
20:03the world , for which I was responsible .
20:06So it was like some of my
20:08responsibilities and whims and desires
20:10faded into the background . Was
20:13that difficult for you ?
20:17You know what , probably not entirely ,
20:20because I always wanted children ,
20:24but this all happened quite quickly , so
20:29I think it was harder for me that I had
20:31to adapt to it all quickly , right ? And
20:34that was the first moment . And then
20:37motherhood happened , which happens all
20:39the time and which challenges me very
20:40strongly at various stages and gives me
20:42something like this , that there was
20:44this big moment when I was just a
20:45mother , mainly a mother . And I worked
20:48because I had to work to afford to — I
20:50don't know — provide everything for my
20:52child and I felt it , yes , but on a
20:54basic level . But I had to work , I
20:57couldn't stop , but I was mainly a
20:59mother , and that was tiring , because I
21:01felt like I really wanted to be a
21:02mother , but I didn't want to be just a
21:04mother .
21:07Right ? And I felt like my life wasn't
21:10just about motherhood , right ? Just like
21:13before , it was just about acting , and I
21:15often felt like it wasn't just about
21:17acting ,
21:18right , and like some kind of
21:20professional success , and so on . So I
21:23think that first pregnancy , and Alexy's
21:25family , had a profound effect on me ,
21:27and it completely shook me up . Then
21:31there was the breakup , which I've
21:33already talked about a thousand times ,
21:34so I don't really want to go back to
21:36that , because it's
21:38already been covered , but every breakup
21:40,
21:43whether with a partner or a breakup in
21:45the sense of someone dying , completely
21:50reevaluates your life , right ? And it
21:52also makes you have to meet up with
21:54yourself somewhere , like I did with
21:55that . I have , so who am I if the other
21:57person isn't there , right ? Because that
22:00happens with every breakup . So it's
22:04always a culminating and difficult
22:06moment . And then there was the moment
22:11when I was alone for years , when I had
22:13to face various life experiences and
22:15challenges completely alone , I don't
22:16know , understanding that my mother
22:18isn't sick . Because so what if you're
22:23sick ? You have a small child .
22:25Who cares ? That you have a 40 - degree
22:29fever or that you can't speak , because
22:31I was constantly sick , and I had , for
22:33example , eight weeks of long-term care
22:35and couldn't heal . Do you understand
22:38that ? My body so desperately needed to
22:40tell me to stop for the thousandth time
22:42. No , I get chills when I talk about it
22:45, because these are moments like these ,
22:48because I finally had to realize that
22:50if I take iProm again , it won't do
22:52anything . No , because it's just some
22:55kind of calming agent , and I had to
22:57meet someone . So much with my body ,
Czakra gardła, przewlekłe choroby i uwięzione emocje
23:00what it's saying to me . Then , I don't
23:03know , a code of emotions appeared , yes ,
23:05a book that came to me , and I started
23:06to explore the meaning of all these
23:08psychosomatic things that were
23:10appearing in my body . Now my throat
23:12tightens when I talk about it , because
23:14that was also a moment when I worked a
23:15lot with the throat chakra . The throat
23:18chakra , which is responsible for truth ,
23:21for expressing yourself , for being who
23:23you are , for your creation . I had
23:26throat problems for two years . Why
23:29didn't I have a job ? Because it was all
23:32blocked , right ? I wore blue , damn it ,
23:36for three months , because the throat
23:38chakra is blue , so to strengthen that
23:40throat chakra , I wore blue , you know ? I
23:46tried everything , all sorts of methods ,
23:48exploring it from the medical
23:49perspective , but above all , because I
23:51went to an immunologist , sir , I've been
23:53sick for eight weeks . He says , " Well ,
23:57but the tests don't show anything here .
24:00" " You know , all these tests are okay .
24:05I already knew it wasn't about my tests
24:07and it wasn't really about , you know ,
24:09something , damn , anything . No , I
24:12searched because I wanted to find
24:14something , but there was nothing there .
24:16Jesus , Olga , when you talk about it ,
24:18tears came to my eyes , because what
24:24you're saying , I think it can really
24:26touch a lot of people , because what the
24:28body does often , in my opinion , when we
24:30are in such a disconnected state , in a
24:32constant rush and so on , well , these
24:34are diseases . For example , I also had a
24:39situation where I was sick very often ,
24:41and it was just like , I don't know ,
24:43colds , flu , just constantly from one to
24:45the next . And I'm also very curious in
24:51this context that , okay , so you started
24:53looking , so you go to an immunologist ,
24:55he tells you everything is fine , you
24:57start wearing blue , you start , you know
24:59, trying various methods . What was one
25:05such The thing you caught , and you just
25:11felt yourself starting to breathe
25:13deeply and that you were starting to
25:14open up here , that your voice was
25:16coming back . You
25:22know what , I think that at that stage I
25:25became very close with my friend
25:26Marysia , who practices Ayurveda , and I
25:29think , and I also had Michelle around
25:31me , who practiced medicine , Chinese
25:33acupuncture , and so on . And I think
25:39that's where it all started . So , I
25:41first focused on how to heal my body ,
25:43but without taking more medications ,
25:45that is , from the natural side . And
25:50then a lot more followed , because
25:52there's Chinese medicine , you know , one
25:54organ affects another , and so on . It's
25:57the same in Ayurveda . I started , I
26:01stuck to a pattern , for example , an
26:03Ayurvedic morning , like rinsing my nose
26:05with a neti cup , drinking hot water ,
26:07then turmeric mustache , ear candling ,
26:16and everything else , because those were
26:17the moments that made me I was stuck in
26:19some kind of frame . I really needed
26:25that at that moment , to have some kind
26:26of ritual that would make me feel safe ,
26:28that would do me good . And that's where
26:32it all started . It was like I was
26:33always close to yoga , but at that time ,
26:36for example , Maria was also leading
26:38these yoga meditations , the ancient
26:39ones .
26:41My friend Marysia .
26:43Yes . And Marysia always says that when
26:46she went to India , she learned yoga in
26:48a village where she was the only white
26:50person and the first one they had ever
26:51seen there , right ? So she brought back
26:56this kind of ancient yoga , which
26:57focused very much on working with the
26:59chakras , well , not on the breath of
27:01fire . And I also did a lot of breathing
27:10exercises constantly , these various
27:12Ayurvedic rituals that made me feel
27:14safe , because it was something I had
27:16control over , and I didn't have control
27:18over many things back then . And I'm
27:25also the type of person who likes to be
27:26in control , right ? I like it when
27:28things are So I know everything , what's
27:30going on more or less where , right ? So
27:33I focused on little things that made me
27:35feel like I had it . So I think that's
27:41it , but Agnieszka Maciąg's book
27:42definitely helped me a lot .
27:45Oh my , we're on the same path . I know ,
27:49that's why I don't , it was the book
Budzenie Wewnętrznej Mocy i rytuały ajurwedyjskie
27:51Your Inner Power ,
27:55which completely awakened my inner
27:57power , which made me start to
28:03understand that what I was feeling was
28:05okay , that various intuitive things
28:07were coming to me — because , you know ,
28:09I was also very religious from
28:10childhood , right , and I was raised in
28:12the Catholic faith — and it was like I
28:14also believed very strongly in angels ,
28:16I still believe in them and I know they
28:18watch over me . Well , no , but it was
28:21also like I had somewhere that I wasn't
28:23completely on track with the teachings
28:25of the Church anymore , and it was a bit
28:27like Agnieszka connected exactly what I
28:34needed , that it exists , what I believe
28:36exists , but there's something more , and
28:38that it's like it's mine . My attitude
28:41and this path of mine , somewhat
28:43energetic , started with that . I'll tell
28:45you more . Damn , I don't know if I'm
28:47revealing any secrets , but when we
28:54moved into our new house , it turned out
28:56— and this was after Agnieszka's death
28:57— that my neighbor was her son .
29:03Really ?
29:05And recently , I received an email
29:06because I was in her Facebook group , so
29:08was I. And I
29:11received an email with a webinar she
29:13used to do , which he's now resending .
29:16And I came out and said , " Hey , you sent
29:18me an email . " And he said , " What do you
29:21mean ? Are you in that group ? " " I say , '
29:23Yeah , so look what it's like . ' And I've
29:27never met Agnieszka , but today , as I'm
29:29sitting here , I think it all started
29:31with her , and I think it's a good book .
29:35I don't know where you can even find it
29:37now , because they're not so easily
29:38accessible anymore , but I think this
29:40book is good , a good start for people
29:42who feel like they're in a similar
29:43situation to us , but don't know where
29:45they are or where to start . Because if
29:49we told them today , ' Take Dispenza . ' No
29:51, I think so , well , damn ,
29:53I told you that before we turned on the
29:54camera . I really admire you for being
29:56able to handle it all . Besides , before
29:58I got pregnant with my second child , my
29:59partner and I had this idea that we
30:01would go to a workshop on Dispenza and
30:03Moments and we started Googling the
30:04dates , and a moment later we found out
30:06I was pregnant , and it was like , there
30:08was absolutely no time for it , so we'll
30:09definitely come back to it . But we have
30:12these books at home , and my partner
30:13went through them , and there's a lot
30:15And for me , for example , I find them
30:17very difficult . I get stuck somewhere
30:20halfway through and I can't get it . For
30:23me , it's very complicated , although
30:25it's actually simple , right ? I mean ,
30:28yes , I think that what's complicated
30:30there is the Polish translation is very
30:32difficult and very angular , which makes
30:34it much easier for me to listen to and
30:36read in English . Much easier , really .
30:39So when it comes to dispenza , I think
30:41you're absolutely not the only one . And
30:43I think a lot of people have this
30:45problem , that sometimes , in general ,
30:47when you read one sentence from this
30:48book , you have this feeling that , ' Jeez
30:50, I have to concentrate so hard to even
30:52understand what's written there . ' And I
30:54remember reading this book , at one
30:56point I started to wonder , and I said ,
30:58' I don't know if I'm some kind of , I
31:00don't know , I don't get it , or if I
31:01have some kind of difficulty , you know ,
31:03with logical understanding , or if it's
31:05just how it is . ' "
31:06I immediately had the thought , aha , so
31:08this is reading comprehension , which I
31:10didn't grasp in high school . Yes ,
31:12that's that moment during my final
31:13exams . Am I understanding it , right ?
31:15Yes , definitely . So , do you remember
31:18the moment when you worked through all
31:26these different programs you had inside
31:28you and felt it click , and suddenly an
31:30offer came , a casting call , an
31:32invitation ? I think I think there were
31:38a few moments like that , a flash of
31:45light , let's say , no , but I definitely
31:47had a few of these group meditations ,
31:49some kind of ceremonies of various
31:51kinds , which made me feel that when I
Odczyt z Kronik Akaszy, praca z głosem i miłość z folderu "inne"
32:00entered such deep meditations , I simply
32:02felt that , for example , I was leaving
32:04with the intention of , oh , that I
32:06wanted to receive some signs when I was
32:08finally on this path , and so on . And
32:11something kept coming to me like ,
32:12you've been on this path for a long
32:14time , start taking action , right ? That
32:15I had something like that . Or , for
32:18example , with this voice , that I had
32:19been struggling with this throat chakra
32:21for a really long time , and suddenly a
32:23musical came to me to do . At the
32:26Kwadrat Theatre . Interesting , by the
32:30way , because it was " Sisters " — a play
32:32about nuns , and there were a lot of
32:34different themes , related to angels , to
32:41some kind of connection with the
32:42mountain , right ? And at the same time ,
32:48opening the throat chakra and singing ,
32:50which I've always had , since childhood ,
32:51I loved singing and did it , but it was
32:53always marked by some kind of great
32:55stress . So it really opened up , so I
33:01think this play , even though it was
33:03just a play , was also a kind of bridge
33:05for me , because I entered it with the
33:07intention that from now on , it would
33:09all move forward , right ? That I
33:14wouldn't stop anymore .
33:15I even wrote it down because that's how
33:16I wanted to start , speaking about these
33:18sisters .
33:18Yes ,
33:19yes , because I know you set the
33:21intention for yourself before this play
33:22: for your voice to open , for your
33:24throat chakra to simply
33:27open enough to be able to speak your
33:29truth .
33:30Exactly , that's exactly how it was . And
33:32somewhere , that performance was a kind
33:34of bridge for me . Besides , it was also
33:36a performance . During rehearsals , I met
33:38my partner . Well , during those
33:43rehearsals , I also participated in
33:45various group ceremonies , which gave me
33:47, um , well , confirmation that I was in
33:49a good place . I remember having
33:55interesting experiences , uh , having
33:57Akashic Records readings . These are the
34:01kinds of things I can probably only
34:03share on your podcast , because normally
34:05there's no space for discussing such
34:06things , but with you , you know , I
34:08absolutely love you all . On
34:10Friday , I have a guest from the
34:12chronicles , I'll be talking about the
34:14kasha chronicles . And that was
34:17interesting , because once I went
34:18through that , you know , meditation and
34:20natural medicine , and at the same time ,
34:23kind of psychology , in the sense of
34:25therapy — my kind of conventional
34:26therapy , you know , which I went to
34:28every Monday at 3:00 PM and so on —
34:30well , I was also , well , searching . I've
34:34always been drawn to these alternative ,
34:36interesting , different magical methods ,
34:38specifically astrology . So I went for
34:42an Akashic Records reading , and I
34:44remember asking this very question : " I
34:46think I'm ready to meet someone . " It
34:48was , you know , after about two years . I
34:51said , " I think I'm ready to meet
34:52someone . " Or will it happen anytime
34:55soon ? And then this girl told me that
35:01this person is already there , but I
35:02don't see him yet , because I still need
35:04to raise my vibration to see him . And
35:11now I had this experience : I've just
35:13started doing meditations specifically
35:15for opening my heart . I also meditated
35:18a lot on the " Loving Heart " with
35:19Klaudia Pingot , right ? The kind that
35:22really raises vibrations .
35:25And she said it , and I was a little
35:26confused about what she meant , that
35:28he's there , but I don't see him . You
35:30know what happened a few weeks later ?
35:34Something tempted me to dig through my
35:36other Instagram messages in that , you
35:38know , hidden folder ,
35:42and there was this message from him
35:44that he'd written a few weeks earlier ,
35:46which I hadn't seen because it was in a
35:48pile of hundreds of messages from all
35:49sorts of weird people , or not weird at
35:51all , right ? I just didn't use that
35:56filter at all , and suddenly , during the
35:58sisters , not between rehearsals , we had
36:01a break . I was sitting there , saying , "
36:03Let me go in and see what's there . " And
36:06there it was , you know , there are these
36:08little windows , right ?
36:10And you only see a fragment of
36:12someone's face ,
36:13and I saw this window , I mean , this
36:15circle , and I looked , and I thought , "
36:17Oh , I know this guy . " I clicked , I
36:21looked , I don't know him , but damn , I
36:23know him , I know him , and I know him
36:25very well , right ? And I just remember
36:32it like it was yesterday , that I was
36:33just flooded with this torrent , like ,
36:35it gave me chills , oh
36:39no . And I thought , this is
36:44really him .
36:45And he wrote me some incredibly strange
36:47message . But wait , just to be clear ,
36:50you two have never met before ?
36:51No , we haven't . I'll tell you , we
36:54didn't have any mutual friends ,
36:56nothing like that .
36:58So you just saw this one circle among
37:00hundreds of messages in the " others "
37:02folder ,
37:04and I clicked it .
37:06I know , it's there , you know ? These are
37:09stories people tell , and it's kind of
37:11mine . And then there was him , he wrote
37:15this message so strangely that he saw a
37:17huge , like , huge change in me , and he
37:19doesn't know how I did it , but I did it
37:21well , and he liked it , and he decided
37:23to write it to me because he has this
37:25project now , where he writes nice
37:27things to people , right ? I mean , it was
37:30kind of — you know , it was strange to
37:32me too , because it could have been
37:33taken completely for granted , that it
37:35was incredibly creepy , that a guy would
37:36write something like that , and who
37:38knows , no . But on the other hand , I
37:40looked at that photo and I said , " This
37:42is my person . "
37:42And what did you reply to that ?
37:45We started talking about Dispenza then ,
37:46because I remember when I read it ,
37:48because I was in the middle of reading
37:50Dispenza , and I was writing to him , I
37:52think I posted something on Stories ,
37:53and he commented that I was reading
37:55this book . I said yes , and I texted him
37:57that I couldn't get through it at all .
37:58So we started talking about it ,
38:00generally about therapy . He told me he
38:02was a Buddhist , that he meditated a lot
38:04. So that's what we mostly talked about
38:08, and it was like we had a lot of
38:10topics like personal development , right
38:12? I was like , " Oh , damn , he's done
38:16therapy , but it's awesome , right ? " I'm
38:19done therapy , he's done therapy , that's
38:21already a lot , that this is some kind
38:23of starting point , right ? Yeah ,
38:28and it was great , and we wrote for a
38:29long time , because he was on a long
38:31journey , and I think he traveled for
38:33about a month and a half . Y and I said ,
38:36" Okay , well , that first coffee was so
38:39eagerly anticipated ,
38:41right ? " And then it was like , when I
38:45saw him at that first coffee , I was
38:47sitting there thinking , " I don't know ,
38:49I don't know , and on the other hand ,
38:50you're going to be the father of my
38:52child , but I really don't know , right ? "
38:56And it was such a strange feeling , this
38:58thought that we were going to have a
39:00child together , when I had absolutely
39:01no plans to have any more children ,
39:03right ? Like , and at the same time , I
39:06was 100 % sure it was him , and on the
39:08other hand , I wasn't , and I had this
39:11feeling , it really will be you . Super
39:14weird . Then , probably on the second or
39:19third date , he started telling me some
39:21story about being with friends , about
39:23attending a wedding abroad , and he was
39:25telling me about him , and he was
39:27telling me about this couple , and I was
Skąd wiedzieć, że to miłość? nak przeznaczenia, pierwsza randka i ojciec dziecka
39:29like , damn , I know these couples . And
39:35it turned out that my best friend ,
39:37Marysia , has a friend , and that's the
39:38girl my partner was talking about at
39:40the wedding . Oh , wow .
39:44And I said to her , " Listen , we have to
39:46check this . You have to check who this
39:49guy is , right ? " And from that
39:51perspective , I checked to make sure
39:53everything was okay , that he wasn't
39:55some internet creep . Because , you know ,
39:57it's difficult these days . There are so
40:01many people , and I'm sure you also have
40:02thousands of different messages in your
40:04folder from very different people who
40:06don't know exactly what they want from
40:07you .
40:08That's why I was surprised that I
40:10clicked on his message . Because you
40:11clicked , because I know how much you
40:13know , I can have different messages in
40:15this folder , and it's impossible to
40:16read . I think I had this kind of check
40:19inside me : is
40:22this really
40:23safe ? Because I didn't have any
40:26experience with him , there was no one
40:28who knew what he was talking about , and
40:30how did I figure it out and get the
40:31answer that yes , he's okay , that
40:33everything is okay with him , that he's
40:35a great guy . Wow , what a relief . And
40:41suddenly , from that moment on ,
40:43everything flowed so smoothly , and I
40:44feel like I made a quantum leap , too ,
40:46because when I let go in this
40:48relationship and we started building it
40:50together , I saw that you can create a
40:52completely honest relationship with
40:53another person , where they still
40:55challenge me completely sometimes ,
40:57because I was always , you know , a lion ,
40:59right ? So if I'm like this here , like
41:04this there , it's not like that , it's
41:06like this . And he says to me , " Honey ,
41:08this is probably not the way we choose
41:10to communicate in our relationship . "
41:11Right ? And with his calm , stoic , Libra
41:15attitude , he sits there and says
41:17something to me . I feel like , " How can
41:19that be ? " And I feel like saying , "
41:21What's that ? " And it's like a challenge
41:25, and I think it's another quantum leap
41:27, when you connect with another person
41:28and they simply challenge you , and you
41:34have to move forward together . If
41:35you're thinking about someone while
41:37listening to this conversation , it's
41:39not a coincidence . Send them this
41:40episode . That's what interests me ,
41:43because I'm looking at two people who
41:49simply found each other in some totally
41:50twisted and strange way that
41:52theoretically had no right to happen .
41:57And I wonder what this relationship
41:59means to you , what has it taught you ?
42:05You know what , this is definitely the
42:11first time I've been in a relationship
42:13where I'm able to not immediately
42:14respond to , for example , I don't know ,
42:16an invitation , but just say , " Wait ,
42:18I'll arrange things with my partner
42:20first and let you know . " It's so much
42:27that suddenly we're , in a sense , one ,
42:29even though each of us has a lot of
42:31freedom . I mean , we both went through a
42:37long journey before we met . M. And it's
42:42like this : I remember drawing it out to
42:44myself before I met him . I had my own ,
42:47you know , notebook , all sorts of things
42:49, of course , I wrote down what my
42:51partner should be like — it all worked
42:53out . But I remember drawing it out to
42:55myself , right ? That this is my
42:56collection , this is his collection , and
42:58this is our collection , right ? That
43:02each of us in this relationship must
43:04have the freedom to be who we are , to
43:06accept each other , but we have a lot in
43:07common ,
43:12and I'm still learning about that ,
43:14because we're also very different in
43:15many ways , very , very different indeed .
43:19He , I am , he says I'm exalted , that I'm
43:22outspoken , not all my emotions . If I'm
43:25dissatisfied with something , well , damn
43:27, it's immediately obvious , isn't it ?
43:29When I'm happy , I'm just overjoyed . Oh
43:33God , no ,
43:34Leo ,
43:35not like that . And he's not like that .
43:38I have to drag him out . But you're
43:40happy , but you're really happy . Did you
43:42just say you're happy , but it's really
43:44about your body and so on , no . So
43:47there's a lot about trusting that what
43:53he says is true , not what I think he
43:55thinks . Oh Jesus , that's very , very
43:59profound . And
44:02very often he says to me , " See , now
44:04you've drawn your own conclusions about
44:06what I think , even though I didn't say
44:08it at all and it's not true , right ? " So
44:13he's teaching me not to think for him ,
44:15what he thinks . On the other hand , I
44:23see it too , but I'm getting chills now
44:25because I want to say this : that we're
44:27amazing parents together , that we've
Dojrzały związek, stawianie granic i akceptacja różnic
44:29found a huge amount of fulfillment and
44:31joy in raising children in this , that
44:33we're ultra-compatible on this . He also
44:42has this approach to parenting , with
44:44this incredibly open mind , that the
44:45child should experience a lot . You know
44:49, for example , there's this father who ,
44:51when Aniela was just starting to walk ,
44:53and I , you know , I kept checking on her
44:55so she wouldn't fall off the couch ,
44:56right ? And he says , " Wait . " And he'd
45:01let her fall a little , holding her ,
45:02showing her how to get off the couch . I
45:05said , " She can't walk yet . Why are you
45:07teaching her that ? It doesn't make
45:08sense . It hasn't been two weeks . Aniela
45:10was the first child the physiotherapist
45:12there has seen . My friend says she's
45:14never seen a child like her who can't
45:15walk , who doesn't fall off the couch ,
45:17she just climbs down it . She couldn't
45:19walk yet , but she could get off the
45:20couch without falling , no . I was like ,
45:23damn , okay , I'll back off a bit , I'll
45:25see how he approaches it , because I
45:27already had some visions about it , you
45:29know , some habits of mine after the
45:31first child and so on . And he went into
45:34it all with such an open mind , which I
45:36love about him . Because he has this way
45:39of having to experience everything
45:42and test everything , and it's so
45:44annoying sometimes .
45:46I know ,
45:47and it's so frustrating because I think
45:49, why are you testing this ? I tell you
45:51that's the way it is . I say , but I have
45:53to test it empirically , I have to
45:55approach it empirically . I have to then
46:00like this : when I hear from him
46:02empirically , it makes my blood boil
46:04sometimes , but then I think : okay , wait
46:06, because he often has a much fresher
46:08perspective on many issues , and we
46:09learn a lot from him , and that also
46:11makes us have such great power together
46:13in this , in this joint action , you know
46:15.
46:19Gosh , how cool is it , what you're
46:21saying . You know , it's cool for me for
46:25several reasons . Firstly , because I
46:28have exactly the same relationship
46:30dynamic . I mean , I'm you , and my
46:33partner is a real person . Um , but the
46:38second thing is that , you know , uh , uh ,
46:41it seems to me that , uh , for a long
46:42time I grew up thinking that my ideal
46:44partner should be someone who is just
46:46like me , that he is the perfect match
46:48for me precisely when we are the same .
46:53And now , looking back , of course , it
46:56seems to me that different things work
46:58for everyone , and so on , but this
47:02learning from another person is
47:04different . approach — as you were
47:07talking about , how he was kind of
47:09making Aniela fall off the couch — well
47:11, that's exactly what Marcel would do .
47:14I mean , write it all down , paint it all
47:16over , 100 % . And I think it can so
47:23enrich your worldview and who you are ,
47:25that you learn that not only your truth
47:27is true , but also the other person's
47:33completely . Yes . I also remember that
47:36at the beginning ,
47:36and I'll only finish this , that I also
47:38think it translates into other
47:39relationships and my approach to other
47:41people
47:42completely . Yes . I also remember that
47:45at the beginning , my partner questioned
47:47my very strong attachment to my work .
47:51And I , at the stage of building a
47:53relationship with him , kept asking
47:55myself : who am I if I'm not an actress ?
47:59Who am I if I'm not Alex's mother ? Who
48:03is my partner's partner , right ? And
48:08also that he constantly shows me —
48:10because he has a very normal job , he
48:12doesn't work on YouTube , so generally ,
48:14he's not from the artistic field — and
48:16he often gives me so much . To
48:22understand that my work ethic is that ,
48:24well , actors in drama schools are also
48:26somewhat raised on the principle that
48:28an actor saves the world , not just when
48:30they play a role and so on . But the
48:34truth is , it's work , work is work . And
48:37he also taught me that , well , it's
48:43still just my job , it's a big part of
48:45me , but he also showed me that I have
48:47it a little differently than he does ,
48:49because my work is extremely important
48:51to me and allows me to fulfill myself
48:53and is a very big and important part of
48:55me . And thanks to him , I allowed it , I
49:03checked it , and I know it's true . So , I
49:05had it since I was a child ,
49:07and it was very much mine , but as if it
49:09were mine , because it was mine and
49:11that's it . I didn't know why .
49:13So you didn't even ask yourself
49:14questions , I just
49:15wanted to do it since I was a child and
49:17I did it since I was a child .
49:18But he asked me such questions . But I
49:21wonder if if you weren't doing it , what
49:22would you be doing ? No , maybe it would
49:24give you even more joy , or maybe So you
49:26don't burn out like that ? Because
49:29acting is also very energy-draining ,
49:31isn't it ? And it's working on emotions
49:34non-stop .
49:35Yes .
49:39So it's very exhausting work , and he
49:40often explored it and made me realize
49:42that this is completely my destiny for
49:44this incarnation . Here we can post our
49:53insays — that , um , that I , um , if I
49:55want , I really feel like I should be a
50:03kind of guide for people , but not in
50:04such an obvious way . Because I
50:09absolutely don't feel like an expert to
50:10sit and tell people how to live , but
50:12for example , I feel like I can inspire
50:14them to do something by taking on
50:16different roles .
50:22I have something like that within me ,
50:24and I know that this is very much my
50:25path and that this is very much one of
50:27the tasks I have to handle here ,
50:30that is , your life mission . It's
50:32my mission .
50:33Okay , then I'm very curious what
50:39mission you fulfilled in your latest
50:41role . Olga in the film " Make It Sense ?
50:44" Because I'll just say that I watched
50:46it , unfortunately I haven't had a
50:48chance to watch the whole film yet , but
50:49I've watched the trailers and I have a
50:51very strong impression that this is a
50:52completely different role . This is a
50:54completely different role . This is a
50:56completely different role . This is a
50:58completely different role . This is a
51:00direct connection to the previous one ,
51:01but it's directly related . Thanks to
51:07having such a partner , I managed to
51:09create health and safety at work , which
51:11allowed me to create a role that is
51:13completely different from my own , and
51:15at the same time , emerge unscathed .
51:19Wow .
51:21And that relationship is one thing , two
51:23things . I approached it professionally
51:28to the fullest because I won the
51:29casting two years earlier , when I
51:31didn't even know I was having a second
51:32child . I found out we were making this
51:39film , that we managed to find the money
51:41and so on , financing for this film , the
51:43moment I found out I was pregnant , it
51:45was all within a week , and I thought to
51:47myself , " Aha , cool . " So I started it
Rola w filmie „Ma to sens” i BHP pracy z emocjami
51:50quickly . I had to count on Aniela being
51:526 months old if she was born on time ,
51:54that she would be 6 months old if I
51:56were to come on set . And then what ?
52:02Then I had some very serious
52:03conversations with my partner , who told
52:05me : " Okay , but we have to think about
52:07how your separation from the baby will
52:09affect her future relationship building
52:11and the attachment style she'll develop
52:13at 6 months old . " Which completely
52:20devastated me , because I thought to
52:22myself : he doesn't want me to make this
52:24film , he wants to block me , and I'm a
52:26mother , but I'm also ... You know , it
52:28triggered a series of enormous fears
52:30that I had to deal with . So I did
52:37everything and absolutely did
52:38everything to combine my role as a
52:40mother , which was very strong at that
52:42time because I was still breastfeeding ,
52:44and that was extremely important to me ,
52:46and I really wanted to breastfeed , and
52:48at the same time , Aniela really didn't
52:49want to take a bottle or anything else
52:55and was very attached to me . At the
52:59same time , I really wanted to do this
53:00film because I knew , firstly , that this
53:03was a role completely for me , and I
53:04felt it deeply . Secondly , I knew it was
53:08a role I'd never played before , and
53:10it's rare for an actress to get a
53:11chance to play something that doesn't
53:13suit her physical abilities and isn't ,
53:15like , as they say in this industry ,
53:17someone is cast on terms . So , if I'm
53:21sweet and beautiful , then I'll play
53:23sweet and beautiful , you know ? And in
53:27this film , I'm ugly , vulgar , unstable ;
53:36everything is simply contrary
53:39to my physical abilities , isn't it ? So
53:42I knew it would be a huge opportunity
53:44and a great chance for me . And I knew I
53:48could play it well , but at the same
53:50time , I knew that what I was building
53:55with my child during the breastfeeding
53:57stage was extremely important for her
53:59entire life . Because , at the same time ,
54:04looking at it from an energetic
54:05perspective , breastfeeding isn't just
54:07about giving food to your child , but
54:09also about the energy and the energy
54:10flow that you give to your child . You
54:14and your child are in a kind of
54:16constant symbiosis , right ? So how do
54:20you get into extreme emotions ,
54:22ultra-aggressiveness , because this
54:24character was incredibly aggressive ,
54:26vulgar , constantly pissed off , and not
54:32convey it during breaks ? Because Aniele
54:35was with me in the camper on set for 12
54:37hours with a nanny , so that whenever I
54:39had a break , I could go and feed her ,
54:41cuddle her , soothe her , whisper to her ,
54:44and everything . How do you do that
54:49while constantly clicking through and
54:51not selling her this energy , this
54:52character , right ?
54:55Mmm .
54:56By breastfeeding . Oh my God , Olga , I
54:58hadn't even thought of that , but now
55:00that you say it , it seems so absolutely
55:02logical . How did you do it ?
55:05I found Anna Skorupa , and she was a
55:07godsend for me too . The woman who
55:10prepares actors for the rohms .
55:14Eh , but it turns out she's just like us
55:16,
55:19a little crazy .
55:20Yes . And after the first phone call
55:22with her , even though I knew we had
55:23very little time , I knew she was
55:25totally available , that getting through
55:27to her would be a miracle , that she
55:28would even take anyone on board ,
55:30because she was simply extremely busy .
55:32Um , she's an acting coach , but when I
55:34heard in the first conversation that
55:36she was a mother , I asked her directly
55:38if she was a mother , and she said yes ,
55:40and I told her : " Listen , I'm a mother
55:42too . My baby is six months old , I
55:44really want to play this role . Help me ,
55:47how can I do this so that I can switch
55:49from one to the other and not ... sell
55:50out ? You know , it happened in the first
55:54conversation , and such energy just
55:56flowed between us , and she also guided
55:58me through it . M tried it with me at
56:04the stage , like , preparing ...
56:06preparations for the film E , and she
56:10was in constant contact with me . And
Karmienie piersią, coach aktorski i uwalnianie postaci
56:15sometimes there was also , for example ,
56:17a scene in which my character Y lost ...
56:19that she loses her father during the
56:21film , it was an extremely difficult
56:23scene for me and very , very powerful ,
56:25so energetic . And I remember that I had
56:34just come off the set and I knew I had
56:36to go feed Aniela immediately , and I
56:38said , I call her , and she just
56:40immediately started doing exercises for
56:42me , strictly based on experience , like
56:44in Meditation , to return to my body .
56:48Well , it's all a bit about me lending
56:54my body to some entity ,
56:59like my character , right ?
57:06So I bring it into my body , consciously
57:08lending my body so it can express
57:09itself , but then I have to take it out
57:11of myself , because otherwise , it stays
57:13with me .
57:18Mhm . And when I understood this on an
57:22energetic level , it was a game changer
57:24for me . And I'm no longer afraid of
57:27roles . I know now that I can simply
57:30play anything , because I already know
57:32how to do it . I have this feeling that
57:37now , as you're telling me this whole
57:39story and looking at it from this
57:41perspective , it's as if all this had to
57:43happen , that you had to , as it were ,
57:45start developing spiritually , somehow
57:47energetically , to reach , let's say ,
57:49this woman , because you gave birth to a
57:51child , and because , look , if you hadn't
57:53given birth , you might have actually
57:55simply taken on this role .
57:59But of course , yes . I would have
58:01approached her the same way I
58:02approached casting .
58:04And then she would probably have been
58:06completely different . And you know what
58:08I mean .
58:08Right . And now , look , you say that now ,
58:13after this contact with Ms. Anna , you
58:15feel you can play any role , that you
58:17simply have this courage to fulfill
58:19your mission .
58:23Absolutely . Absolutely . And I'll tell
58:27you more , I just met , and during the
58:29making of this film , I met this
58:31interesting man who is now retired . Mr.
58:35Marek , who is a bioenergotherapist , a
58:37radio aesthete , you know , he works with
58:40a pendulum , white energy therapy , and
58:42so on . And he said something like this .
58:45And you , as you know , it was a casual
58:47conversation . I met him by the way , you
58:49know , he says something like this .
58:52Because as an actor , you have this
58:53great opportunity to have several
58:55incarnations in one incarnation . And I
59:03was right then in the middle of
59:04preparing for this film , where I
59:06realized that I I lend my body to
59:07various experiences that are partly
59:09mine , because I have to force them
59:10through my body .
59:13I have to find something for myself ,
59:15too , no ,
59:16but they're not entirely mine . And it
59:20all came together for me . It's
59:22incredible . It really is a story . Wow .
59:28It's very interesting , and today I feel
59:30incredibly brave telling you about it .
59:34Because it's also like , you know , I
59:36don't know which journalist I could
59:37tell something like this to when
59:39talking about a film . You know ,
59:43I actually wrote down one question : I'd
59:45like you to tell me something about
59:46this role that you haven't said
59:48anywhere else , so I guess I don't have
59:50to ask that question anymore .
59:52Yes .
59:53Well , no , it's a beautiful perspective .
59:56Thank you so much for sharing it ,
59:58because I also realize that these are
1:00:00very intimate things and very , very
1:00:02yours . And I really like that you show
1:00:11a completely different side , an
1:00:13Olga that nobody knows , I have the
1:00:15impression that's
1:00:16completely true . The funniest thing
1:00:20about this The whole point is that I
1:00:22thought exactly that , and we got an
1:00:23internal link to watch the film before
1:00:25the premiere , so I could replay it and
1:00:27see how they edited it all , how it
1:00:28turned out in the end ,
1:00:31and what you felt . And yes , I think
1:00:34it's good . I think this film gives a
1:00:37lot of hope . I think it touches on very
1:00:40important topics , like the
1:00:42neurodiversity of my character , because
1:00:44that's also a big part of it , like her
1:00:46being neurodivergent , having extreme
1:00:48ADHD . I also have someone like that in
1:00:53my immediate circle , so this topic is
1:00:55kind of close to me . It's true , I don't
1:01:05have these disorders , but I had to
1:01:06explore them for years , and thanks to
1:01:08that , now , getting into this character ,
1:01:10I also experienced how neurodivergent
1:01:12people experience it . I mean , I tried ,
1:01:17well , not to explore all of this , so
1:01:19that was also very interesting . At the
1:01:22same time , on the other side was
1:01:24Jędrzej , who played a man with deep
1:01:25depression . So , this film may be
1:01:33comedic , but at the same time , it deals
1:01:35with very serious topics , bordering on
1:01:37these . And that's what makes it not
1:01:44just a comedy , but a film that has a
1:01:48certain weight to it . And I'm very
1:01:52happy about that , and I think that in
1:01:54the end , this film really gives a lot
1:01:56of hope . But I wanted to say that when
1:02:00we watched it together with my partner ,
1:02:01he's sitting there and I'm thinking to
1:02:03myself , he's about to tell me , wow ,
1:02:05he's never seen me like that , and he
1:02:07says , " Well , you're basically just
1:02:09before your period . " So I say to him , "
1:02:13What , how could you ? " No. And that's
1:02:16also the essence of him , that he treats
1:02:23it all so lightly , right ? That we're
1:02:26talking here about how I've done big
1:02:28things , that I've survived , that this
1:02:30is such a role and everything . And at
1:02:32home I have , and at home I just have my
1:02:35partner , who is so easy going . He says
1:02:38to me , " Oh , cool , cool movie , fun to
1:02:40watch , cool . " What's
1:02:43your love language ? Actually , I think
1:02:47it's changing now , because I always
1:02:49thought that practical help , and I
1:02:51remember that when I met my partner , so
1:02:53I say , you know , because my love
1:02:55language is practical help , and now I'm
1:02:57telling him again , " You're not telling
Języki miłości, wyciszenie i docenienie bezpiecznej nudy
1:02:59me you love me , you love me . "
1:03:01Honey , but you told me your love
1:03:03language is practical help . Look , I did
1:03:05the shopping , I unloaded the dishwasher
1:03:07, something , and something starts to
1:03:09come back to me . I'm like , okay , that's
1:03:15why I asked , because I think Leos like
1:03:17to have words of affirmation like that ,
1:03:19too , like , " You did great , " " You're
1:03:21brilliant , " and so on , " reinforcement , "
1:03:23it's such a nice word . But you know
1:03:27what , I also remember that at the
1:03:29beginning of our relationship , I was
1:03:30saying that I really didn't want empty
1:03:32words ,
1:03:34because I'd experienced that many times
1:03:36, and that once I was together so
1:03:38deeply , I didn't really need those
1:03:43words of reassurance . I need action . I
1:03:48need to know that the other person
1:03:49cares about me and takes me seriously
1:03:51and wants to build a life with me . And
1:03:56then I kind of love that caressing , but
1:03:58I think I also get a lot of that at
1:03:59work afterward . It's just that this
1:04:03industry is like this , that I can kind
1:04:05of get some support here , no , no . And
1:04:12at home , despite everything , I might
1:04:14need it on the surface , but underneath
1:04:16it all , we have a safe relationship ,
1:04:18even a bit boring — as Piotr Mosak puts
1:04:20it , because my partner unfortunately
1:04:22often speaks his language , even though
1:04:24we don't know each other — it's like we
1:04:26have a lot of boredom in this
1:04:27relationship , which makes me feel safe
1:04:29in it .
1:04:35But I think it's also worth it — I say
1:04:37this to myself too — that it's worth
1:04:39looking at relationships from this
1:04:40perspective : if there's such good
1:04:42boredom , if there's such peace , then
1:04:44there's nothing wrong with it . Because
1:04:48I think that we , too , in this world ,
1:04:50you know , oh , I don't know , about ,
1:04:56let's say , showbiz , yeah , and
1:04:58everything around us , we're a bit used
1:05:00to such extreme emotions , and no , and
1:05:02for example ...
1:05:05I feel , because we're constantly
1:05:07discussing this topic , no , that my
1:05:08partner is telling me exactly that , you
1:05:10see , and you Now you're looking for the
1:05:12extreme , and there's no need for that .
1:05:15Yes . Now imagine , for example , that you
1:05:18have a partner who , like , you're coming
1:05:21home after an event , or , I don't know ,
1:05:23after some film promotion , or after
1:05:25recording some , you know , very long set
1:05:27, and so on , and at home you're back on
1:05:29a rollercoaster , you know , it's crazy ,
1:05:31and so on . Well , that can be very
1:05:37difficult , in my opinion , and it's easy
1:05:39to confuse such excitement with
1:05:41something that could be simply toxic ,
1:05:43right ? I completely , completely agree
1:05:50with that , and now I even appreciate
1:05:52that when I'm at a wall , at an event ,
1:05:54which I'm not a fan of , because it also
1:05:56involves such a huge drain on energy .
1:06:03And now , for example , this month , I
1:06:05have a lot of that coming up because of
1:06:07the film promotion , and I'm standing on
1:06:09this wall , or giving interviews , and so
1:06:11on . I have to be careful to stand this
1:06:14way , not that way , because if they take
1:06:16a bad photo of me , they'll write
1:06:18something like that , and I'm standing
1:06:20there , and I think to myself : " Oh my ,
1:06:22I'll come home , put on my tracksuit ,
1:06:23sit on the couch in front of the TV ,
1:06:25we'll watch our anti-aging series and
1:06:27it'll be great . " Not that I know he's
1:06:30waiting at home and that I know what
1:06:31I'll find at home ,
1:06:32right ? That you don't have to wonder ,
1:06:34right ?
1:06:34Yes . And that's simply
1:06:36great value .
1:06:37A lot , and that's what I was looking
1:06:39for . But we also didn't say one more
1:06:42thing , um , we also didn't say one more
1:06:44very important thing , um , which is
1:06:46about your film , that is , that it got
1:06:48into the Perspektywy competition in
1:06:50Gdynia , which is a very big success .
1:06:52Yes . And that was one of my dreams ,
1:06:54which I've been writing down for years ,
1:06:56every full moon and every new moon . Yes
1:06:58, because it was also always a ritual .
1:07:00I still do it . My friend Mersia also
1:07:04taught me that , to always write mainly
1:07:05about this on noob , um , write two
1:07:07sheets of paper , on one what I'm saying
1:07:09goodbye to and burn that sheet , and on
1:07:11the other On the second page , I write
1:07:13everything I'm just starting . And I
1:07:16always wrote that it's already
1:07:17happening and that I'm there and doing
1:07:19it . And for years , I wrote it and I
1:07:22haven't stopped , so that if I ever go
1:07:24to the Gdynia festival , I'll simply go
1:07:26there exclusively with my film , as if
1:07:28I'd never been to this festival before ,
1:07:30even though actors always dream of
1:07:32going there , even for a moment , to see
Festiwal w Gdyni, manifestacja i intencje na nowiu
1:07:34something — a film , a director ,
1:07:36something . I never did , because I said
1:07:40I'd go there if my film , in which I
1:07:42play the lead , was there . And it's
1:07:45happening now . And it's really about
1:07:51how persistently you have to strive to
1:07:53fulfill these dreams , that it really
1:07:54doesn't happen often right away , and
1:07:56that I've really been in this industry
1:07:58since I was seven . I started acting
1:08:04when I was seven , and now I'm 33 , and
1:08:06this is the first time I've succeeded .
1:08:09And I've been dreaming about this for ,
1:08:11honestly , I don't know . 15 years , right
1:08:13? That's really on my dream list . So
1:08:16I'm very happy about that . I think this
1:08:24film also deserves to be in a
1:08:26competition like this , because it's on
1:08:27the one hand a festival film , and on
1:08:29the other hand , a bit commercial ,
1:08:31because everyone who watches it will
1:08:32find a part of themselves in it , and
1:08:34these are themes that touch us all
1:08:36somewhere . And it's not a film about
1:08:46love , and those are usually the most
1:08:48common . This relationship that Jędrzej
1:08:55and I are creating in these roles has
1:08:57no romantic traits at all , which I also
1:08:59think is cool and interesting , that
1:09:01it's not about love . Well , I don't know
1:09:10what to tell you . I'll tell you when I
1:09:12get back from Gdynia . Firstly , I can't
1:09:14wait to go to the cinema to see this
1:09:16film . And secondly , it's wonderful to
1:09:19hear it . You really know , because I
1:09:29think it's often easy for all of us to
1:09:31say that or to infer that someone's
1:09:32success just happens , that you know ,
1:09:34it's very nice to say : " Oh , someone had
1:09:36overnight success , " or something like
1:09:38that , you know , like someone comes in
1:09:40and something just happens , and you
1:09:42show that from your perspective , it was
1:09:44actually a regular job and not giving
1:09:45up on that dream , even though it wasn't
1:09:47happening , wasn't happening . " I don't
1:09:57have an audition for the summer , " or ,
1:09:58you know , " I don't have a role . " So
1:10:00what can you think at a time like that ?
1:10:02You know , it's easy to give up .
1:10:04Yes , that's exactly how it is . And I
1:10:08think it's a result of my childhood ,
1:10:09where I was also very hardworking ,
1:10:11because from a young age I was striving
1:10:13for all of this . And I've always really
1:10:22cared about it , and I've always loved
1:10:24it , and I've learned that things don't
1:10:26happen immediately for me , and I really
1:10:27sometimes had to wait a long time for
1:10:29different roles and for my dreams to
1:10:31come true . And I'm proof that , beyond
1:10:41the talent I think I have — and I
1:10:43generally think highly of myself and
1:10:44believe I'm truly capable of playing
1:10:46anything that comes my way — there's a
1:10:48whole series of things that have to
1:10:49come together in this industry . But
1:10:57it's also really hard work , and I'm
1:10:59kind of at the point where I think to
1:11:01myself , " I've worked so hard , and now
1:11:02I'm going to ask for my reward . "
1:11:06But that's very much
1:11:08me , that's also the moment where I kind
1:11:10of want to start taking it easy , no way
1:11:12. And I absolutely don't rest on my
1:11:16laurels , and every role is also an
1:11:18opportunity for more work , and this one
1:11:20also showed me that , so what if I've
1:11:21already worked so hard , I also had to
1:11:23prepare for this , and I also had to put
1:11:25in the work to pull it off , no ,
1:11:28this project . But it's not like I don't
1:11:33have it anymore , I already know my
1:11:34worth .
1:11:36If you're still listening to this
1:11:38conversation and think it's valuable ,
1:11:39I'd be grateful for your comment and a
1:11:41thumbs up . I think what you're talking
1:11:47about is also very important ,
1:11:48especially when we start working on
1:11:50ourselves , doing something , you know , I
1:11:52don't know , some spiritual , energy
1:11:54therapies and so on , to find that
1:11:56moment where you stop pushing forward
1:11:58all the time and say , " Okay , now I'm
1:11:59opening myself up to it really coming
1:12:01to me . " But I also think it's very
1:12:10important to pay attention , because
1:12:12today this word , I don't know ,
1:12:13manifesting and so on , is a bit cliched
1:12:15in this context , that people often
1:12:17perceive it as , " I'll just sit down ,
1:12:19start thinking , and something will come
1:12:21to me . " Well , no , life is such that for
1:12:28something to come to you , you actually
Ustawienia Hellingerowskie i nieuświadomione historie przodków
1:12:30have to take some steps towards that
1:12:32situation in order to ,
1:12:36or sometimes you have to close
1:12:37something , so that something can open
1:12:39up . Exactly , because I also often think
1:12:42that there's this trap of wanting to
1:12:44move forward , wanting to advance ,
1:12:46wanting to achieve more things , but in
1:12:48reality you're stuck in a certain place
1:12:50. Entangled in things you shouldn't
1:12:52have been involved in for a long time ,
1:12:54because they're actually blocking you .
1:12:57By the way , this is a topic that comes
1:12:59up very often . I recently experienced
1:13:01Helmingsar settings for the first time .
1:13:04I mean , I used to be in one-on-one
1:13:06sessions , and now I'm in group sessions
1:13:08, and it's also an interesting , quite
1:13:10controversial topic . I've been planning
1:13:14to do this for several years , just to
1:13:16experience it , but actually , after
1:13:18watching " The Other Me " on Netflix ,
1:13:20which we briefly talked about before
1:13:22the cameras rolled , this series somehow
1:13:28inspired me to go for these settings .
1:13:35And I saw there , while also
1:13:36participating in other people's
1:13:38settings , that sometimes we're blocked
1:13:40by things we have no idea about . It's
1:13:46our past stories , our ancestors '
1:13:48stories , stories from a previous
1:13:50incarnation . Um , and if you're open to
1:13:57looking more broadly , to looking deeper
1:13:59at something that once seemed absurd to
1:14:01you , and today you think to yourself : "
1:14:03Okay , maybe what I'm saying is true ,
1:14:05then explore it , go there , because
1:14:07sometimes
1:14:12we don't even know that we're stuck in
1:14:14life . Um , and that's also a bit about
1:14:18this film , uh , that I've been making
1:14:20recently , that you can get stuck in
1:14:22some place in life . Um , and sometimes
1:14:25it's enough to change just a little bit
1:14:27to change a lot , to
1:14:29take some first step ,
1:14:30right ? And that's also very , very much
1:14:32what this film is about . Um , Olga , one
1:14:36more question that I really like , and
1:14:38someone close to me asked me some time
1:14:40ago . Which situation in your life had
1:14:45the greatest impact on where you are
1:14:47today as a person , but also
1:14:48professionally ? And I mean a situation
1:14:55that at the time seemed completely
1:14:57tragic to you , but today , when you look
1:14:59back , you know that it made sense and
1:15:01that this is what happened . It was
1:15:08supposed to happen so that you could be
1:15:10who you are today , play the role of
1:15:12Olga in the film Maens , and simply feel
1:15:13like a happy and fulfilled person .
1:15:20There was this one morning when I was
1:15:26still alone , after breaking up with
1:15:28Alex's dad . I had been alone for a long
1:15:35time , but I was still in a place where
1:15:37I was forcing myself to do it , and I
1:15:39remember this one morning when I felt
1:15:41like , damn it , I can't get out of bed
1:15:43anymore , that I can't get up today , I'm
1:15:49done . And I think it was a moment when
1:15:56I felt like nothing made sense anymore ,
1:15:58that I didn't give a damn about it
1:15:59anymore . I didn't give a damn about all
1:16:03these therapies anymore , all these
1:16:05physiotherapists I go to , acupuncture ,
1:16:07healers , shamans , bioenergy therapists ,
1:16:10and everything , everything . And I
1:16:15remember that day and that morning , and
1:16:17it somehow came to me , and I remember
1:16:19that later , of course , I had to get up
1:16:21because I had to take Alex to preschool
1:16:23and leave the house . And how I left him
1:16:28in In that kindergarten , I had a very
1:16:35long walk alone , and something came
1:16:37over me that I already have so much ,
1:16:38because I have people around me .
Najtrudniejszy poranek w życiu, sięgnięcie dna i proszenie o pomoc
1:16:45And I think that if it weren't for the
1:16:47people close to me , my friends who were
1:16:49with me — really , gosh , well , when I
1:16:56was alone — my family , and now my
1:16:58partner , I definitely wouldn't be here
1:17:00today in this shape . Because I'd
1:17:06probably still be somewhere in this
1:17:08industry , probably still giving various
1:17:10interviews and so on , but definitely ,
1:17:11if it weren't for all the people who
1:17:13also accepted my various states , my
1:17:15explorations , my asking questions ,
1:17:26questioning everything , searching for
1:17:28answers , then I definitely wouldn't be
1:17:33here . So , I don't think this is just
1:17:39one situation , because I've had a
1:17:40series of them , but I remember the day
1:17:42when it came over me , like this
1:17:44gratitude that first there was a moment
1:17:46— the only one I've actually had in my
1:17:48life — that made me wonder , what's the
1:17:50point of me getting up today , right ?
1:17:55I've reached this point , this wall , no ,
1:17:57this wall , that , damn it , I can't go
1:17:59any further , but I had no choice . And
1:18:04you see , sometimes the salvation is
1:18:06this child who makes you have to get up
1:18:08anyway .
1:18:12So , this also showed me that asking for
1:18:17help , which I hated , turned out to be
1:18:19the only right thing , right ? That when
1:18:22you're simply in a place like that , you
1:18:24ask for help .
1:18:26And if you have people around you who
1:18:28help you and are kind to you , then it's
1:18:30really what you said .
1:18:32Nothing is more important to me . Now ,
1:18:34you know , we recently celebrated our
1:18:36birthdays , so you know how it is . It
1:18:37always makes me reflect . I don't know ,
1:18:41for me , this birthday and the week
1:18:43before it is always like ,
1:18:46wow , and there's always so much going
1:18:48on . And on this birthday , as usual , a
1:18:51lot of people spontaneously showed up
1:18:53at my house and we managed to throw a
1:18:55party , and I stood before blowing out
1:18:57this candle and , as usual , I was
1:18:58blowing out this candle . I burst into
1:19:01tears ,
1:19:02simply saying that there's nothing more
1:19:04important to me in life than
1:19:05relationships . There simply isn't .
1:19:09Thank you so much for this beautiful ,
1:19:11honest , and real conversation . Wow . I
1:19:15think this is a completely different
1:19:16side of Olga Kalibka . Thank you so much
1:19:19.
1:19:19Thank you .
