About me<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

I\u2019m a trainer and coach with over 20 years of experience\u2026 blabla. No, I\u2019m not going to bore you with a full list of credentials (if you\u2019re curious, feel free to check my LinkedIn). What matters more is whether I can help you grow and achieve your goals. And that\u2019s something I\u2019ve had the privilege to do with many clients over the years. So let\u2019s skip the fluff.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not someone who has it all figured out. I stumble, fall, fuck up, get up and try again. As often as the next person. What I do<\/span> have is a gift for listening, for offering new perspectives, for helping you find clarity and focus. I\u2019ll encourage you to stumble, fall, fuck up and try again too, because that\u2019s how you grow. That\u2019s life. The messy bits and the beautiful ones. All of it.<\/p>\n

I live in The Hague with Jacques, Noah, and our ever-enthusiastic dog, Spikey, who somehow has more energy than all of us combined. I\u2019m one of those people who loves the idea<\/span> of sports but rarely gets past a good walk or an ambitious yoga session. What I do love is food and everything it brings. Getting people together, enjoying great food, real conversations, and having a laugh. Life is short, and I think we should spend it doing what we love, what really matters, and adding something of value to the world, or at least to someone else.<\/p>\n

Too many people live their lives chasing fulfillment and rarely finding it, because the goal is too big, too ambitious. I don\u2019t believe in chasing a 100% happiness score, some shiny version of perfection. But I do<\/span> believe in better. In more meaning, more honesty, more connection. A life that feels like yours.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why I do what I do. Enough about me.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The coaching conversation I had with Petra gave me a direction or a hint to solve one of the internal conflicts that I was carrying with me for years.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/blockquote>

I appreciated some very insightful answers from Petra to questions that were tricky. She showed how much she understands the topic and how committed she was to help us. Big thanks, Petra!<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/blockquote>

Petra has a very precise intuition for the context of transformation and knows how to empower people to make the best use of their talents. Next to that, she is a lot of fun and a warm, lovely person to work with.<\/div><\/div><\/span><\/blockquote>
