What people say afterwards, in their own words.

Working with strengths instead of fixing weaknesses

“Through the sessions I learned to accept who I am and to work with my strengths instead of constantly trying to improve what I saw as my weaknesses. The summaries she sent after each session were a valuable addition to my own reflections. By the final session, I had already reached my goal.”

Getting the basics back in order

“I had moments where I felt drained as a professional, like I was being lived by what society expects from us. Breaking bigger issues down into smaller, manageable goals helped me realise that getting the basics back in order was the most important thing at that time.”

Thinking through an international career decision

“Being able to share thoughts that still felt unstructured, and having someone reflect on them and challenge me to think more deeply, was one of the most valuable parts of the process. It became clearer what actually gives me energy, and whether continuing my career in the Netherlands still felt right after years of working internationally.”

A mantra that stayed

“Somewhere during the process we found a mantra that I know will stay with me. I felt like I could talk non-stop without judgment and I truly felt listened to. I don’t think I have achieved everything yet, but I surely have a much greater awareness.”

Connecting the dots

“What worked best for me was hearing Iela repeat and organise my own thoughts. In just a few sessions, I experienced several aha moments that helped me connect the dots more clearly and take a step I had been considering for a long time.”
