Throughout my life I have looked with curiosity to the world around me. Always mesmerized by the beauty of our nature - I started to draw and paint animals, plants and people when I was young. In my teens I became fascinated by the psychology of people - and studied Psychology to understand more about myself, my family and people and groups in general. Honest and clear communication were a focal point for me at that time. 

Early twenties I experienced burnout which taught me a lot about my bodily signals and shifted my focus to embodied practices like yoga, meditation, breathwork and haptotherapy. A few years later - I was 23 - both my parents got diagnosed with cancer in the same week. A period of care and loss followed as my father died 10 months later. My mother happily recovered with lots of new inspired life energy. This point of my life seriously started to shift my perspective and identity as I had never (do we ever) expected this to happen. 

From then onwards my life took a different turn and after finishing my Psychology degree I focused on yoga, meditation and spiritual development. A world that is sometimes mentioned as ‘vague’, I noticed it gave me a lot of down-to-earth practices that helped me feel my body, and sense my needs in a way that was deeply empowering. The journey afterwards involved teaching yoga, coaching, finding plant medicine and setting up Pure Kakaw. 

The red thread throughout my life has been curiosity and a conviction of our purposeful and powerful nature. I have learnt ways to navigate and appreciate life in its full colored spectrum and wish to share what I know, hold space for not knowing and learn and grow together with authenticity, playfulness and courage. I warmly invite you to join one of my events or step into a journey with my 1-1 sessions.
