Following my Master’s degree at the Hertie School of Governance in Berlin, I focussed on corporate social responsibility with one of Germany’s leading consultancies for impact-oriented corporate citizenship - PHINEO. As a senior consultant and Head of United Way Germany, I worked with top leaders across different sectors internationally, helping them develop long-term strategic partnerships and impact-oriented systems change. After many inspiring years of following this purposeful path that combined my passion for people, business potential and the greater good, my own personal system asked for a reset.

Chronic illness - linked to Epstein-Barr Virus - and stress brought my body to a standstill. Despite following strict medical and complementary protocols over the years, being active and surrounded by friends, my physical and mental health was steadily declining. When my body forced me to stop everything I was invited to go deeper. Something inside asked for a complete, holistic renewal that would enable me to live in wholesome health and freedom at all levels and to serve from there.

It was at that time that I discovered the extraordinary field and science of mind-body healing and the powerful teachings and tools of The Journey method by Brandon Bays. Diving right in I learnt from the inside out how unintegrated trauma and unprocessed emotional pain can become lodged in the body, creating symptomatic struggle and limited self-expression. Patterns of unconscious and often inherited conditioning deeply influence our belief systems and the extent to which we feel healthily expressed and engaged in life. These are underpinned by unmet emotional “no-go-zones” that keep us stuck or disconnected from our truly authentic selves.

Little did I know that this innocent exploration would become a life transformation process, in which I would move continuously through fear of the deepest unknown into greater presence, freedom and strength. Thanks to this root-cause healing approach, the pattern of illness dissolved and the chronic fatigue that at times made me wonder if life would ever be the same again, vanished after a few years. What once felt like a constant state of anxiety released into deeper peace and my nervous system became increasingly regulated. Most importantly, life is so much more free, present, authentic, rich, joyful and with a depth of love than I could ever have imagined. This is neither dependent on anything “out there” nor fundamentally affected by what might be going on “in here”. It is an embodied consciousness and connection to who I truly am that is essentially restful, trusting, and naturally abundant. The waves of life’s up’s, down’s and in-between’s can move in this essence ever more freely.

While on this journey and after seven years in Berlin, I joined the On Purpose Leadership Programme in London to fine-tune where I could add most value and experience systems leadership work with inspiring colleagues. Alongside this I completed my qualification as an Accredited and Recommended Journey Method Practitioner*. The Practitioner's Programme is a thorough multi-stage training, involving deep self-inquiry, cellular healing, personal transformation and extensive case study work. I learned everything from the inside out, embodying the tools and the living teaching to the point that it became a way of life for me. I continuously invite myself to stop, get still, and welcome whatever needs to be felt and integrated for a natural restoration of energy flow, healing, and the emergence of deeper love, freedom and clarity.

The transformational mind-body therapy & coaching I offer also draws on many additional hours of advanced coaching training to offer clients the most powerful sessions possible. I recently graduated from the Transformational Leadership Coaching Programme with Nicholas Janni, whose paradigm-shifting work Leader as Healer won UK Business Book of the Year. Currently I am on a developmental journey with Thomas Hübl, a renowned teacher, author, and international facilitator who works within the complexity of systems and cultural change by integrating the core insights of the great wisdom traditions and mysticism with the discoveries of science.

I am hugely grateful for this work, for my wonderful clients, for the life I now lead - moving between city and nature in new health and connection - for the magic of the Unknown, and for the unshakeable connection in Presence and Love that guides my way. The deepest value I bring to this work is inclusive love - the love of who you are and where you are because you are here.
