How to NOT be a part of the 70% of leaders feeling like an impostor:

· Stick to the facts
· Stop hiding and speak up
· Log positive feedback & achievements
· Speak to yourself like you would to a friend
· Remember: you are not the only one feeling like this

In all of this, remember to breathe, step away from the office and have a laugh with your loved ones.

You are NOT your thoughts!

Becoming a leader isn’t just a promotion—it’s a complete shift in how you work, think, and show up. And no one really prepares you for it.

Here’s what no one tells you about stepping into leadership:

⚡ You’ll have to let go of being “the expert.”
Leading isn’t about doing—it’s about guiding. The skills that made you great at your job won’t always be the same skills that make you a great leader.

⚡ Decision-making will feel lonelier.
When you're in charge, there’s no one above you to approve your choices. You’ll have to trust yourself more than ever.

⚡ You’ll need to shift from fixing problems to empowering others to solve them.
Instead of jumping in, your job is to coach, support, and develop your team.

“What did you want to be when you grew up?”

As a little girl, I told everyone that when I grew up, I’d travel the world with my little suitcase. 🌍 Today, that dream looks a bit different — but it’s still about exploring, learning, and growing. Now, I get to work with incredible leaders and professionals around the globe, helping them reach their own goals and navigate their unique journeys.

Leadership isn’t just about titles or roles; it’s about who you choose to be every day. If you’re ready to elevate your path, let’s connect.

And what did YOU want to be when you grew up?

Some of you are still on holidays, some of you are already back to work.

If you’ve been doing some thinking during your holiday about:
how to change things up,
go a different path,
faster,
slower,
exploring new territory,

All whilst staying true to who you are.

How do you grow and stay you at the same time?

That’s a question I’ve gotten from professionals aiming for their next promotion, from entrepreneurs building their personal brand and company owners wanting to change their business model.

Usually there’s a realization that to grow, one must change. And that’s ok. The hard part is how to ensure that change without losing oneself along the way.

Can you get promoted to director without becoming a hard and cold person as you might have seen role-modelled around you?
How do you build a personal brand without becoming obnoxiously sales-ly and a modern-style Narcissus if that’s what you see all over social media?
And for your company to grow internationally and enter new markets, how do you hold onto the strong culture you’ve built up?

It’s hard. Really hard.

There’s so much fear underneath it all.

It’s possible though. I know this because I’ve seen it done.
Setting boundaries, being respected yet being kind.
Being quirky and truly unique yet powerful.
Having an incredibly ambitious yet caring culture.

The secret is trust.

Trust that it’s possible.
Trust that you’ll stay you.
Trust that you’ve got this.

Fridays are for reflecting on the week that passed.

I have been completely blown away by the stream of reactions, comments and well wishes I received since this Wednesday after announcing my company.

Goes to show that you truly can be your own worst enemy and sometimes closing your eyes and just doing it is the best way forward.

The day is definitely not over for me yet - when it is though, I will think back on this past week with intense gratitude and butterflies in my stomach for what comes next.

Wish you all plenty of butterflies going into this weekend. 🦋🦋🦋

It’s Wednesday morning. It’s January.
If you’re like me, you’re likely sitting indoors hiding from the rain, the grey, the cold.
Sipping your fourth coffee because… January.

Let me try and spice up that coffee for you, shall I?

I’ve been meaning to tell the world that I have started my own company. I’ve just been hiding. Most of my plans were ready a while ago. Hell, one of my websites (yes, plural) was ready end September.
I just didn’t dare publishing it. Or telling anyone about it besides my inner circle.

No more.

So.

If you feel like you are not reaching your full potential in your business, as an entrepreneur or as a professional, I can help you. See, I am on a mission to lift more businesses and people into the pink of their health.
What’s that?

In the pink [ɪnðəpɪŋk]:
1. in very good health
2. in perfect condition, especially of health

No, I have not turned into a fitness & nutrition coach. I do however know how to turn around mindset in businesses and people – on the back of my toolbox and deep conversations.

What do people typically want to work with me on?
- A senior manager - to get her next promotion, fast.
- A scale-up - to review their current commercial pricing model, fast.
- A CEO in a tech scale-up - a safe space to spar on changing the business model.
- A Chief Marketing Officer - to coach her on instilling a new process & performance approach in her team.
- A senior key account manager - to turn around her mindset.
- An entrepreneur – to get a grip on his pricing strategy and the right customers.

If that made you curious, have a look at my website and book a call with me!
