Ask what you can do for the Whole, not what it can do for you
Choosing with awareness, wisdom and integrity
Understand how the world really works and recognize the patterns
I’m passionate about helping people and organizations navigate today’s complexities and (re)define their unique purpose and vision.
Nothing is as powerful as understanding the power of your choices. With wise and conscious choices you are redirecting the flow of your life, and thereby all of Life. If you master this, can you imagine what that will do for your self-power and, hence, for your well-being and success?

Many counselors and life-coaches will have to adapt and evolve if they want to optimally heal and serve their clients because the nature of trauma has changed. With COVID, we have entered a new reality. A reality that requires us taking on a new perspective that […]
Around this time last year, I was staying at a retreat center in rural Netherlands. The area is called Riverland and that is totally apt.
