Be the CEO of YOUR Life
-Embrace Life-

Live your life on your terms. Make sure to be in control over your schedule and work so you create time to enjoy life. 

I love life, adventure and exploring new things; discovering countries and meeting people. I love to work, spend time with my family and friends and to workout. I like to do it all​,​ and these days I can.

That was not always the case; I struggled to find the right balance. Even to the point that I suffered from burnout. I then decided to start minimising and do less of everything. I found it quite boring and as soon as I regained energy I said yes again to everything and everyone. This resulted in me becoming tired and annoyed again and I landed in a vicious circle.

Until I discovered what it was that made me lose my balance, my energy each time: I did not say yes to only those things I wanted​ or needed​, I said yes to all. Most of the times I did not even take myself into account whilst agreeing to something. As soon as I started to ​pay attention and to ​say yes to only those things ​that were important to me, that helped me and my career further it all started to contribute towards my success.

As I focused on what I needed and wanted not only did my energy improve significantly, I also brought the focus back. Allowing me to do less yet make more of an impact on what I did. It also created time, to enjoy myself throughout. At work but even more outside work. 

What a revelation to discover this: saying yes to all and ​still ​have a balance that works for me, is possible. It all starts with taking back control.

This discovery has helped me tremendously and given me: freedom, focus and makes me feel good about myself. It allows me to get more done in less time and improved my relationships. But above all I have ​improved my health, have ​more energy and am in balance, allowing me to work as much as I want and still fully enjoy my family, friends and other fun elements of life.

I have captured the steps that got me there and bundled them into an amazing programme: ​Be the CEO of YOUR Life.

Typical me

‘Life is a party, but you will have to put up your own charade’

  • I love champagne, I drink it to celebrate successes and simply to enjoy life

  • My daughter’s nicknames are: bouncing ball and cheeky. The meaning of her name is the loveliest. These three words, especially the last one, sum her up brilliantly

  • She calls me: peanut butter monster

  • I can indulge myself in a movie entirely; scream when it is eerie and weep when something moving or sad happens (which is remarkably often)

  • We got married on the magical island of Bali 

‘In the end all will be okay. If it is not okay yet, it is just not the end’

  • I love to travel

  • My bucket list shows only travel destinations

  • This year I have visited at least three of these bucket list destinations, among which Istanbul and Marrakech

  • I love driving, and I especially like taking corners fast!

  • Different cultures and backgrounds of people fascinate me

  • Ever since my burn-out I try to engage in things I would love to do as soon as I possibly can and which would otherwise end up on a bucket list. That is why I have subsequently: parasailed, driven a truck and made my own jewellery.

My mission:

Freedom, Respect and Positivity are my three core values.

Freedom is also why I started Amaze Yourself. Once I discovered how liberating it is to take back control, things changed. Making decisions purely based on what I want and need, no longer feels selfish and I can do this guilt-free and without shame. The funny thing is, doing that has boosted my success enormously. By just being me, and choosing for what I really want. That is what total freedom looks like to me. 
 
I know how hard it is, to choose for what you really want; and to even discover what it is you really want. As we are so often trapped in other people's expectations, without us even knowing it. Whether it is the rat race we find ourselves in or doing everything to please our loved ones, it ultimately doesn't help us. And when you then step by step move forward to taking back control, determining where you want to go just by taking into account what you need, you feel liberated. 
 
This ultimate feeling of freedom is what I would like so many more people to experience. That is my mission: what I love to help you achieve too.
