I am a Third Culture Kid.

Meaning, I am French and German and was raised amongst a third culture.

More actually; in total, I've lived in 10 countries.

I identify with none entirely, yet am influenced by all of them.

I have always felt an internal tug-of-war

I am dual in many ways.

Introvert / Extrovert

Yoga / Adrenaline seeker

Homely / Worldly

Chameleon / Authentic

Father: Loud narcissistic / Mother: Quiet pacifist

Childlike / Professional

Day-dreamer / Go-Getter

I burned-out twice, and bored-out once.

At the time, I knew how to apply my communication skills for the organizations I worked for, less so for myself.

My voice stayed stuck in my throat in the face of negotiation, conflict, speaking up, standing up for myself.

I knew nothing about boundaries, had little understanding of the importance of my values.

My confidence was shaky, my self-worth non-existent.

I didn’t know my overall life vision.

I didn’t know myself.


I suffered in silence until it became too much to bear and resigned each time.

Taking months to recover.

Now, I know, it doesn’t have to be that way...

Today, I combine all my experiences to support women in claiming their voice, path and dreams.

For fulfilment, fun, happiness, energy, joy, balance, self-love, and confidence.

To have a thriving life of funfillment ♥

I was born an Expat, spoke 3 languages by age 9, and lived in 10 countries. My childhood was filled with new experiences, people, cultures and languages. The one constant in my life has been change and adapting to it. I love it, I thrive in it. The unknown makes me feel alive. 

By age 35, I had ticked off my bucket list.

I had experienced incredibly enriching adventures, encounters and freedom.

Also accompanying those experiences, were those that social media didn't tell - loneliness, lack of life purpose, health struggles, finding a new job and home every time to name but a few.

But I always believed in my dreams. And ticked them off whilst making my corporate career work for me - not the other way around.

Corporate life was a (financial) way in to traveling and moving around. I was good at what I did. Throughout, the thing I thrived on was my interactions with others. Building relationships was what I was a natural at.  Sitting in an office was not, and I knew that it wasn't where I was living my full potential. But I had no idea what alternative path to take.

Once I had ticked off my Big Bucket List, a shift happened.

I didn't know where I wanted to live anymore, I had no roots, no reason to live in one place more than another.

I no longer had a carrot driving me in my decision-making. I no longer had a "Why". No direction or purpose.

In the absence of a better plan, I chose money and pursued a new role based on its perks.

3.5 months in, I resigned. BoreOut.

It took me 8 months to recover my energy, self-worth, confidence, joy.

In the absence of again a better plan despite actively seeking and researching ideas, I accepted a new role to quieten my worries about money and the gap in my CV, and to have a social life and a reason to get up each day.

Day 1, and I knew it had been a mistake.

A toxic company culture, a micromanager who said yes to every business opportunity and handed me the work at the last minute, a position that had been oversold to me, an office in the middle of nowhere, lack of transparency as to the company's intentions.

I lasted 8 months. BurnOut.

And made a promise to myself that that was it. I was done with corporate life.

I still didn't know what to do, but the understanding that I couldn't go back for my mental wellbeing drove me to take a leap of faith.

Within a week of handing in my resignation, I had researched a seed planted by a few friends as to coaching.

And signed up to a 6-month training without really knowing what it implied.

All I knew, was that I desperately needed change.

Coaching changed my life. From the inside out.

I began to understand the patterns I had created. In life and career.

And learned how to break them to create new ones. Conscious and empowering ones.

I am no longer afraid of anything. Because I know myself so well that I have trust. In myself and in life.

I am not afraid of failing. Because perspective is a powerful tool and luxury we have.

I know my purpose and my values.

I have boundaries and learned to speak up without compromising myself, my beliefs, my needs.

I have a life vision and know to tweak it as I evolve - it gives me clarity, direction and motivation.

My self-sabotaging thoughts are no longer controlling me - I recognize when I am triggered, when they are at play, and can switch them off and replace them with positive thinking very quickly.

I am proud of who I am and I love myself.

Which is a powerful statement coming from someone who at age 22, discovered she loathed herself and didn't know what happiness meant. Growing up around a narcissistic pervert had taught me a thing or two about manipulation. Not so much about self-love, confidence, self-worth, and sincere connections.

It took me 15 years to undo all of it and no longer feel empty and dark inside. My days of pretending everything is fine are over.

Coaching gave me more than therapy, traveling, yoga, self-help books, martial arts did:

it gave me tools to understand and self-coach myself, and to fall in love with myself ♥

Everything is possible now.

Self-Love led me to being genuine without fear of what others might think of me, and my self-worth, empathy, and joy for life are all direct results of it.

I am so passionate about supporting others in their journey because my own transformation was so powerful and life-changing.

With the tools and methods, I can help others shave off decades worth of struggle. 

Coaching is my calling. Every day and client is different, and inspiring.

It took me a leap of faith to find it, but I did and it was all worth it.

Oh, and for you eagle-eyed ones wondering about the second BurnOut I mentioned at the beginning ;)

That one happened in Tahiti of all places. My battle with Endometriosis was at its peak and I was physically drained. My only focus was to keep my job and go home to curl up and sleep. Repeat. Months of that left me emptied.

Challenging times happen even in paradise!
