Dat je al jaren in een bepaalde management of directie functie zit en iets anders wilt? Dat je voelt dat het niet meer klopt? Dat het meer energie kost dan het oplevert? Dat je jezelf wil herontdekken? In 2018 ben ik gestopt met mijn directiefunctie bij HP, een groot Amerikaans IT bedrijf , nadat ik 20 jaar in de corporate wereld had gewerkt. Ik startte een zoektocht naar een nieuwe koers. Naar het herontdekken van mijzelf en wat ik wilde. Middels deze podcast wil ik je graag meenemen in de zoektocht die ik doorlopen heb en nog steeds doorloop. Ik ga open en kwetsbare gesprekken aan met de mensen die een rol gespeeld hebben in dit proces. Wat doen zij precies en wat hebben zij voor mij betekent. Van het verwerkingsproces, gezondheid, het zoeken, het bouwen en mensen spreken die ook soortgelijke processen hebben doorlopen. Ik wil je graag inspireren, motiveren en ondersteunen in jouw reis. Ik ga in op de persoonlijke, financiële en zakelijke aspecten en hoe de balans daar in te vinden.
