Why I Do What I Do

A safe and nurturing space for growth and self-discovery

I provide a safe space where my clients can open up and grow. Within this protected environment, I help them recognize deeply rooted beliefs that often stem from past experiences or cultural conditioning. Through mindful conversations and targeted reflection, I accompany them in questioning and dissolving these limiting beliefs. 

My extensive experience in leading international teams and working with high-ranking executives brings valuable perspectives from the corporate world into my coaching.

About me

Born in Upper Franconia, married and mother of two boys, I noticed my pronounced empathy and interest in people early on. 

My empathy and joy in working with people from around the world led me to a role in communications at Siemens over 25 years ago, where I still work today.

My journey

After many years in the corporate environment, I reached my psychological and health limits during a family crisis. Self-reflection and mindfulness, in particular, helped me fundamentally change my life.

Today, I am happier and healthier than ever. This experience led me to pursue the path of becoming a coach and to complete professional training at the renowned, ICF-accredited Bossert Academy. 

My goal is to accompany people who – like me – strive for a life that is not only successful and fulfilling but also mentally healthy and meaningful.

As a passionate coach, I support my clients who face professional or personal challenges or seek general change in their lives.

My coaching is a goal-oriented and highly effective form of reflection between adults. This "craft" enables sustainable, visible, and tangible changes.

This is the reason I do what I do – passionately and with conviction.
