After losing my partner, my world came to a halt. But I discovered that loss does not have to be the end – it can be an invitation to take charge of your life and totally change course. To create a life that is bolder than you ever dared to dream.
I believe that we don’t regret the things we do, we regret the things we don’t do.
My experiences have not only shaped me as a person but have
also defined my mission as a professional.
This requires personal leadership: resilience to face the unknown, courage to take risks, and the willingness to rebuild from your deepest values. It’s not about going back to what was, but about creating something new - something that truly fits you.
Today, I use my experiences and insights to inspire and guide others in developing that leadership.
mentor
I support people who choose deep transformation with courage and action. Together, we discover what you truly want, we break old patterns, shift perspectives, and take bold steps toward a life where you are in control - fully present, fully alive.
Speaker
I inspire organisations, teams, and individuals to stop avoiding change and instead embrace it. My story touches, challenges, and encourages action. Because real growth begins where you leave beaten path and embrace the unknown.
writer
I share insights and experiences that resonate and inspire - about courage, resilience, and personal leadership. My book Dag Lieverd, tot zo offers hope and recognition and shows how, despite everything, you can find you way forward.
I know what it feels like to lose everything and still choose a new beginning. My experiences have taught me that personal leadership starts with courage: the courage to choose, to walk unknown paths, and to stay true to yourself - even in the most challenging moments.
My presence and my words touch, inspire, and drive action. They bring you back to what truly matters and show that there are always new ways to grow, transform, and choose a different path. Whether for individuals, teams, or organizations, my message creates movement and connection.
why me?
The greatest power lies in choosing
and daring to move forward.
my mission
My life is proof that setbacks are not the end - they are a turning point and an invitation to take full control of your life. Too often, people only make real changes when they are pushed to the edge by pain or loss. I know this firsthand. But I also believe it doesn’t have to be that way.
What if change wasn’t just born from struggle, but from curiosity, courage, and the desire for something more? What if you didn’t have to hit rock bottom to realise that life is waiting for you to choose?
Whether you seek personal growth, inspiration for your team, or recognition in your own story - there is always a next step. And when you dare to take it, everything starts to shift.

Curiosity for life is one of my biggest driving forces. I believe in moving forward, in choosing growth over fear, and in shaping a life that truly fits. The afternoon my husband was murdered, I made two promises - promises that still guide me every day. They have shaped me as a person, as a mother, and as an entrepreneur. Because in that moment, I knew I had a choice: let bitterness consume me, or choose life.
As Nelson Mandela said when he walked out of prison:
"As I walked out the door toward my freedom, I knew that if I didn’t leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I’d still be in prison."
I chose freedom.
