From good girl to fully alive
- an ongoing journey

I used to be a good girl.

I got top grades, chose the hardest subjects, and made all the “right” decisions - not out of interest, but because others said they were the ones to make. I was passionate about music, people, languages, and travel - so I chose Science... I loved singing - so I studied Engineering ...

​

When I started working I kept being the good girl. My anxious, high-performing mind made me an excellent project manager - I could foresee every risk and have a plan ready. Soon, I was the go-to person for the most complex, high-pressure projects with the trickiest clients. I always said yes. I always delivered.

​

Then, the break down.

From the outside, it looked like success. On the inside, I was running. I filled my days with choirs, travels, social gatherings, and challenges. I pushed myself harder and harder, seeking excitement to escape my doubts. And for a while, it worked.

 

Until one day, I caught a thought that stopped me in my tracks: “If I really don’t want to live anymore, why should I go to work?” Hello burnout.

​

I began studying to become a therapist I didn’t want to be a therapist full-time, but I knew this inner work was essential for me somehow. And then, one day during a group therapy session, something clicked. Suzanne, a German embodied teacher, was facilitating, and it was like watching her dance with the group’s energy. Something in me lit up. That. That is what I want to do.

​

Taking new steps

That moment led me to blend my new self with the old one. I became a consultant, facilitator, leadership trainer, and coach—on my path to a new life.
 

I did succeed to some degree, but I still had some of my coping strategies left, and I was somehow afraid to fully show up in the business world as myself. It took years of struggle, a challenging personal life, a second burnout, and attending countless trainings and retreats to realize what was happening: I was still hiding. Still performing. Still holding myself back.

​

So now it finally came to me: I had to walk my talk. I had to be the person I knew I was, no matter what others might think. It took courage. It took self-compassion. It took a strong and relentless inner manager, but with time it paid off. The more I honored myself, the more things shifted. And it was scary - it still is to be honest.

​

I am still walking that path, but I can say that I now have more energy, I am kinder, clearer, more effective. My work feels much more more meaningful. My results are better. And life—life has started to feel more joyful. Ease has returned.

​​

Helping others

Now, more than ever, I feel called to help others do the same. Transform their lives from within. It’s not about fixing yourself or adding something new—it’s about softening, unfreezing the love that got frozen along the way. It’s about becoming who you already are.

I’m here to help my clients unlock that. To step into their full potential, find ease in their effort, live with more purpose—and feel fully alive.

When you meet me, you will get a person with a Master of Science in Industrial Engineering and Management, AND you will get a Psychosyntesis therapist.. You will also meet a Transformational Presence coach, a Certified Professional Facilitator, a certified systemic Team Coach practitioner, and a singer. You will also meet a single mother who has had to struggle a lot with different challenges.

​

While you might only be looking for one for these things, my strength is that I have all these sides, and that they feed each other. 

​

My path has not been straight forward. I have done a lot of things over the years to take me where I am today. And I believe that this path is actually what enables me to help others to open up for growth and to navigate obstacles. This has also made me stable enough to stand firm when needed, and to be really sensitive when the situation requires so. 

​

I am passionate about helping people grow. I love using my experience, my intuition, the latest research, my curiosity and the right tools to guide groups and individuals to where they wish to go.

In the room you will find me:

  • Warm

  • Prepared and knowledgeable

  • Sensitive and listening

  • Using energy and humour to play and help unlock people’s limitations

​

You will also experience me as structured, result driven, able to understand complex situations and quickly pick out the essentials. We will most probably laugh, and there might be moments where we need to be brave and look at what is holding us back.
