At 27, I hit rock bottom.On the surface, my life was perfect: a stable income, a strong relationship, good friends, and a PhD on the horizon. But inside, I was struggling—caught between burnout and boredom. I had no idea why.My default strategy for solving problems was overthinking. It worked in my career but failed me when it came to emotions or relationships. I felt stuck. I asked myself, How does happiness actually work?I spent years searching for answers—through books, seminars, and endless reflection. But eventually, I learned: true peace doesn’t come from more information. It comes from transformation. Coaching helped me see this.The results were life-changing. I shed 25 kg. I let go of guilt and shame. The fears that used to hold me back lost their grip. I stopped hiding. I started reaching out to people, acting from trust instead of fear.The old thoughts still appeared—What if they don’t want to hear from me?—but they no longer controlled me. Acting from presence, not fear, I saw doors open that I hadn’t known existed.Transformation requires brutal honesty. I had to face hard truths, like how comfortable it was to play the victim. It gave me a way to feel “special”—whether by success or by hardship. But the constant focus on my “story” was exhausting.What if I wasn’t the protagonist of these stories?What if I wasn’t a victim but a creator?What if suffering wasn’t inevitable?These realizations changed everything. In 2017, I left my research career to become a coach, helping others find the peace and freedom I discovered. Since then, I’ve supported over 100 people in reclaiming their lives, stepping out of fear, and living authentically.What would you do if fear no longer stood in your way? Let’s find out.--I worked as a scientist, engineer, co-founder, teacher and almost for the last decade as a transformative coach, helping coaches and other people who don't need help. I organized initiation-retreats, masterminds and guided adventures across the world, and I'm currently finishing my Book titled "Why Your Coaching Sucks and You're Broke"Above all else, I'm a "A Course in Miracles"-Student and a "Three Principles"-Practitioner, relishing gratefully in the wellbeing that lies underneath all experience.At the moment, I love working closely with a handfull of highly intuitive people - often with ADHD, hypersensitivity, hyperimpulsivity, autism-spectrum and other superpowers. I support them to truly ignite their 'spark' and show it in the world, because I believe, we desperately need it.
