Burnout, high turnover, teams that function but don't truly connect, leaders who hold everything together while quietly running on empty. These things have a cost — in performance, in culture, in the people you lose.
The solution is rarely another training. What actually moves people is being given real space — away from the noise — to feel what they are carrying and learn what to do with it.
I have been working with a woman of 45 for half a year. She holds a senior position at a university. At first I thought — how can I, a 30-year-old without corporate experience, guide her?
I was wrong about that. Because at the core, we are all human. In the corporate world, dealing with emotions is often a huge obstacle. Either everything explodes at some point, or there is simply no space for it at all. Most people have never been taught how to let emotions move through them — and that costs them enormously, in their work and in their lives.
That is exactly what I work on with her.
"She makes me feel powerful as a woman — in a way I never have before."
That is what she said to me recently. Half a year ago she was a different person. Not because something dramatic happened — but because she finally had somewhere to bring what she was carrying.
It doesn't matter which theme you bring. If you learn to express your emotions more clearly in your relationship, you automatically bring that to your work too. Because every relationship is ultimately a relationship.
Are you always switched on and can't find the way back? Have you lost your inner fire? Do you have all the answers in your head but something keeps blocking you from getting there? Often it is an emotion — still held in the body, from an old experience.
That is what I work with.
