It’s not OPTIONAL — IT’S THE FOUNDATION Why leaders who don’t know themselves can’t lead others clearly. For years, I thought I needed the next step.The better plan.The right strategy.More doing. More proving. But I wasn’t stuck because I lacked action.I was stuck because I had lost contact with meaning.I had forgotten why I was doing any of it in the first place. Not in my head—I could explain the vision.But in my body, in… Read More »CLARITY
Strategy without self is just performance And performance without alignment eventually breaks. I’ve coached entrepreneurs and women in leadership for years—founders, executives, visionaries.Brilliant, driven, deeply interesting people. But the most common sentence I hear isn’t about goals.It’s this: “Something feels off—and I can’t explain why.” Often, they have everything they thought they wanted.But not all of it feels true anymore. Maybe that’s you too. You’ve built something impressive.But somewhere along the way, you got further… Read More »The Alignment Journey
A moment of collapse. A shift toward clarity. A quiet invitation to reset. Ever looked around at your life and thought,“How did I end up here?” From the outside, things look fine. Maybe even successful.But inside… you’re tired.You’re questioning everything.You’ve lost your spark. If that sounds familiar—this story is for you. What No One Saw About 18 months ago, I almost walked away from everything:The business.The brand.The life I had built from scratch. On paper,… Read More »When I (Almost) Walked Away from It All
Most coaching gives you advice.Mine helps you hear yourself. The truth is: You don’t need more strategies. You don’t need someone to tell you what to do. You need the right space to reconnect with your own clarity—the space to say what’s true for you, not just what sounds good. That’s what I offer. I don’t show up with concepts or ready-made answers. I show up with presence. I listen—fully. I meet you exactly where… Read More »Why This Work Feels Different
you don’t need balance, You need alignment. For years, I chased balance.Work on one side. Life on the other.As if they were two separate worlds.As if the trick was to juggle them better. So I tried:More structure. More discipline.Time-blocked mornings. Guilt-free evenings.Productivity hacks. Boundaries. Goals. But it never felt right.Because the truth is—I didn’t want balance. I wanted peace.I wanted my days to make sense.I wanted them to feel like mine. Here’s what I’ve learned: Balance… Read More »the myth of work-life balance
your ‘strengths’ are holding you back You didn’t get here by accident. You’ve worked hard. Delivered results. Earned your title.But the habits that made you successful—might now be holding you back. Especially if you’re a woman in leadership or a founder who built your business from scratch, this can feel like a cruel twist. You were promoted because you were reliable, fast, detail-focused, and always had the answers.You built your business by being the one… Read More »why your biggest strengths become your new blind spots
So often, we anticipate that once we achieve, gain, or acquire something, or when we conquer or win someone, our lives will improve. For many successful individuals, this becomes a driving force to surmount obstacles. Yet, what we frequently overlook is that our lives inevitably become full. We are bound by the confines of a 24-hour day, impervious to any hack. Nevertheless, our innate desire for growth persists. reassess whether it serves a purpose It… Read More »the power of letting go
I had a conversation the other day about distraction. I personally went off most social media in the last month. Since I have been traveling for most of my time for the last 10 years, I love to stay in contact and read about my friends’ updates as well as posting my own. Two things changed over the last years. Somehow my news feeds consist mostly of reposts written by people I don’t know, suggested… Read More »distraction of self worth
Some people come into your life for a season, some for a reason, and some for a lifetime, but eventually, they all leave. The same goes for everything else that we let into our lives. Once upon a time, there was a life without social media for me. And guess what? I loved it for quite a while. Since I am traveling most of the time, I won’t see most of the people I meet… Read More »why i am leaving social media
Recently I was interviewed by the Helmstedter Sonntag, a regional newspaper in Germany.We talked about wasting stuff, desert, change and focus.The whole interview is in German and if you know some German you might enjoy the conversation.
the beauty of the desert
Again, I was surprised.
This was not the first time for me to visit Sahara in Morocco and visiting M‘Hamid lost a bit of the excitement of the first few times. Once I see the first dunes in the distance, it feels more like coming home to friends.
Ever tried to dance tango on your own? Difficult, right? Not only is it difficult alone, but also when you don’t harmonize with your partner and/or one is trying to lead by pressure. It is a silent cooperation that is based on a set of agreements. You set some boundaries for your joined experience and then you dance in harmony. It makes sense to decide beforehand if the dance will be polka or tango. all… Read More »takes two to tango
Most coachings are about reaching the next possible goal. Breaking it down in small reachable steps and setting the mindset to get started.
I am not interested in that. I don’t want to get paid for helping my clients to stay ordinary. I am looking for the extraordinary in you. I want to empower you to dream big and turn your dreams into your truth.

I started as a Headhunter and realized I don‘t want to fill random positions for random people in random industries. I wanted to work for human beings and lead by living an extraordinary life myself.

These guys are a great inspiration to me concerning minimalism and focus. Now they made a documentary about what matters most and what doesn’t. Here’s a preview:
I wrote a blog article about creating routines in Zanzibar earlier this year. I wrote about my struggles finding my way back home while I was living in Stone Town for a month. Although I tried my best to take the same routes every single day, I got lost as soon as my mind was absent for a minute. Now I visited Stone Town again: First thing to do after I got there was to… Read More »creating routines
One of the most inspiring people blogging about simplicity and minimalism is Joshua Becker from Arizona. He recently published some statistics for the US that might be interesting for European readers as well since we have the same tendency. I am posting an excerpt of Joshuas list that was originally posted here. There are 300,000 items in the average American home (LA Times). The average size of the American home has nearly tripled in size… Read More »stuff statistic
I’ve been where you are.
Full of ambition, clarity at times—yet stuck. Unsure where to turn.
I know what it feels like to need support but not know how to ask for it.
That’s why I offer one coaching session per week for free.
Because helping is what drives me.
I genuinely enjoy holding space for others to shift. It’s not just about giving—it’s about the clarity, courage, and transformation that can happen in a single powerful conversation.
Because real impact starts with a chance.
Some of the most driven, talented people don’t have the financial means—yet. This is my way of backing those who are ready to move.
Because I’ve been there.
I’ve had the vision, but not the support. This is how I give back—by offering what I once needed.
Because experience beats advertising.
I don’t do ads. I believe in real connection. If our conversation works for you, you’ll remember it. Maybe you’ll come back. Maybe you’ll refer someone. Maybe you’ll simply take the clarity and run with it.
No pressure. No pitch. No strings.
This is a gift.
All I ask is that you show up fully. Be honest. Be real. Be willing to go there.
You’ll take from it what you’re ready for.
What happens next is up to you.
See you soon,
