Life coaching

This is my “bread & butter” category. Besides our take on this topic, here you will find some noteworthy examples that I came up throughout my sessions (…the privacy of my clients always strictly safeguarded). This just to illustrate that you are not alone, and that it is always good to ask for support. Let the suitable support be a trusted family member, friend or someone professional.

    Learn how visualising the bigger picture — just like solving a puzzle — can help you break patterns, gain clarity, and approach life’s challenges with intention and awareness.

  • What puzzles can teach us about life: How changing perspective helps you get unstuck


    Feeling stuck in life or relationships? Discover how changing perspective — inspired by puzzles — can unlock clarity, growth, and solutions.

    One of my favourite pastimes is doing puzzles — and the more complicated they are, the more I enjoy them. Over the years, many people have asked me how I manage to complete them so quickly. The answer is surprisingly simple.

    I rely on two core principles:

    1. I change my perspective whenever I feel stuck.
    2. I check the “instruction” — the small reference image that shows the full picture I’m working towards.

    Recently, I realised how powerfully these same principles apply to everyday life and problem-solving — often multiple times a day.

  • How to set goals in a positive way


    Stopping self-sabotage your goal by simply reframing your mindset

    I have decided to get rid of my “granny/bingo arms”, as I call them. Most women will know what I am talking about. Anyway, I told myself that it can’t go on like this as I don’t like photos of myself. Andrew doesn’t see what I am talking about when I am bitching about the quality of my arms. But it seems I am the lucky one here as my partner’s eyesight is not that good anymore, so he doesn’t see things as they are. He is even talking about the possibility of needing glasses soon. And when he gets his glasses, he will see very well what the issue is with my arms. So, I had better act before that happens.

  • Be the Change: Why personal growth begins with choosing change


    Looking at life as a learning experience and at change as a gift.

    Change feels uncomfortable because it leads into the unknown. Discover why personal growth requires change — and how to face it with clarity and ownership.

    When I started to write about change one morning, I jotted down some ideas that came to mind. Later in the day I thought: let me check what other people have said about change. I immediately found one of the most well-known quotes about change:

    Be the change that you wish to see in the world

    Mahatma Gandhi

    One thing is for sure: not all of us are able to make such monumental changes in the world as Gandhi and several others have made who truly believed in the importance of change.
