Personal Growth


My Philosophy

I believe that each person is unique and possesses special qualities that should be fully utilized. Your talents and responsibilities have brought you to where you are now. However, the world is constantly changing, which can raise existential questions about personal and professional ambitions.

Questions such as:

  • Am I acting in accordance with my core values and those of the organization under changing circumstances?
  • How can I ensure transparency and ethical leadership in an era where misinformation and distrust are widespread?
  • What can I do to ensure my company's resilience in times of significant geopolitical uncertainty?

Or more personally:

  • How do I deal with the loneliness that comes with leadership and whom do I trust with my most vulnerable thoughts and doubts?
  • What deep-rooted fears or insecurities hinder me from making decisions and reaching my full potential, both personally and professionally?
  • How can I better balance my work and personal life without feeling guilty?
  • Do I love myself enough to be an authentic and inspiring leader?
  • Who am I truly, beyond my roles and responsibilities, and what is my purpose here?

These questions require self-examination and reflection. I am eager to embark on this exploration with you, to help you rediscover who you truly are, the unique gifts you possess, and the impact you can have.

My Approach

My approach teaches you to deal differently with your past, knowledge, and experience. I help you recognize and acknowledge deep-seated patterns that impede your growth and challenge you to look beyond the here and now. Together, we explore the possibilities for you to utilize all your capabilities.

My premise and belief are that your unique fulfilment and happiness are determined by who you are, what you do, and how you connect with others. A deep sense of self-awareness, clarity, and confidence is essential. By doing meaningful work that extends from your identity, you inspire not only yourself but also your team. Intense connections with others enable you to give and receive love, while simultaneously making a valuable contribution to a better world.

We will go through an intensive process together that can involve discomfort, emotion, and even irritation. This is part of the journey. It is essential to experience that you have all the space and time to go through this process of (self) reflection. My questions, associations, and presence will help you.


I will support you, literally and figuratively, to catch your breath, reflect on where you are now, and ultimately, who you are, allowing reflection to occur naturally. Your breath is always there and helps you stay present. Breathwork takes you out of your head and opens the way to your body and feelings. By experiencing and giving meaning to your feelings, you gain natural access to a source of knowledge about what deeply moves you.

My experience is that this intense collaboration, with attention to both body and mind, leads to new insights that energize and guide you, resulting in a true transformation in behavior. This process is liberating and brings you closer to your life's purpose and what you can mean for the world. It offers you the freedom to make your own choices. You already have the answers; I help you discover and fully utilize them.

 

Transformative Program

Transformative Journey with Lasting Impact. This intensive program consists of four phases and gives you deep insight into your unique qualities and leadership style. It is an exclusive, personalized and tailormade program entirely dedicated to your personal and professional transformation. It opens new perspectives on your leadership and shows you how to integrate these perspectives into a meaningful life and sustainable contribution to a better world.

Personal Introduction

Before we begin, it is important for us to meet. This can be during a walk, a ride to your next appointment, or at your office. This meeting is crucial to determine if our collaboration will be fruitful and if I can make a difference in your quest for further self-development and leadership growth.

Preparation

In preparation for the two-day program, I invite you to complete the BluePrint Scan online and discuss the results together. This test provides essential insights into your personal and professional behavior patterns, helping me tailor the program to you and dive directly into the core themes of your leadership.

The Two-Day Program

In two days, you will go through a carefully designed program to touch not only your mind but also your heart and soul:
1. Awareness - We start by exploring your current situation to deeply understand where you stand in your life and career.
2. Observation - You learn to observe your daily interactions and decisions with renewed attention, gaining more insight into your instinctive reactions and behavior patterns.
3. Experience - Through breathwork and reflective practices, we deepen the connection with your intuition and explore what is truly important to you in your role as a leader.
4. Visualization - Finally, I help you form a clear vision of where you want to go and how to get there, both in your professional and personal life.

The following months

The work does not stop after these two days; we continue to work closely together to ensure that the insights and changes you have experienced are sustainable and fully integrated into your daily life. Our collaboration, tailored to your needs, consists of comprehensive monthly conversations, and I am always available between sessions for questions or reflections. In this way, you will experience a transformation that is not only noticeable but also lasting.

Location and Setting

For the program, I offer various inspiring locations, from urban environments like Amsterdam, Berlin and London to tranquil natural settings. Depending on what best contributes to your reflection and growth.

This journey is more than a program; it is a transformative experience that deepens leadership and allows you to derive more satisfaction from your work and life. I warmly invite you to seize this unique opportunity to further develop your potential and make a lasting impact.
