Holistic life &
empowerment coach

Stress out, joy in.
I empower people to find the strength within themselves and lead a healthy, meaningful life.

With over 10 years of professional experience in international corporations, as a self-employed ICF-certified coach and yoga teacher, I support individuals and organizations in change processes. In my work, I combine body and mind, knowledge and experience, as well as structure and ease.

Personal Skills

I draw on a deep wealth of experience full of personal and professional upheavals, involve body, mind and soul equally in my work and engage with my counterparts with great openness, curiosity and presence.

Look forward to North German down-to-earthness paired with Ibiza's free mindset and of course a good portion of ‘happy, wild & free’ spirit!
