ABOUT
More about me - what brought me here and what might bring us together.
MY STORY
The path I've walked
Somehow I broke the mould and and entered the hustle all at once. Worked on a cruise ship, was an Au-Pair in France, studied in London. Studied hard, worked even harder. Performed amazingly. So amazingly that I burnt out in my twenties. Moved back home. Never stopped. Championed the human. Advocated our potential. Fought for softness and understanding. Never gave it to myself.
It was an uphill battle for the most part - screaming human in systems that teach us to reduce our humanity. That tell us intuition makes us impulsive, that rest makes us weak, that conformity will grant us belonging. That our abilities only matter when they can be translated into money. That there is only one type of intelligence that has value.
I’ve done plenty of things that look impressive on paper. Run projects. Collected titles. Climbed ladders. Sat in rooms attempting to consolidate the narratives of human and business. Helped people innovate and create. Written the big strategies. Fought for budgets. Built tools, contexts and cultures for people to thrive at work. Facilitated development for leaders
and teams.
But none of that is what I am most proud of. It is...
That I always found ways to use my creativity and invite others to do the same.
That I dared be the rebel and the pain in the ass, even when it made people uncomfortable - even when it made me uncomfortable.
That I never lost my belief in our humanity and our magic.
And, finally - after many years - that I also decided to honour my own.
Because quietly, alongside it all, life was always poetry. Almost two decades of soul-connecting, healing, listening within. Not always gracefully, but always with curiosity.
Diving deep. Feeling it all. Writing poetry, losing myself in deep conversation. Growing. Finding new angles in myself and my relationships. Learning to breathe. Guiding the breath. Making art.
So it is no accident, that my work does not choose one method or lens...
THE PHILOSOPHY
How I work
I don’t prescribe formulas or step-by-step processes. Instead, I build unique rooms where people can step out of hustle and peel back the programming, stories and internalised expectations to uncover themselves. Connect to their own beating heart and the visions that they only dare dream about.
Ultimately, our most meaningful work and expression or the deepest change and integration, doesn’t happen when somebody hands us solutions, but when we learn to listen to and trust the answers that already exist within.
My approach is eclectic by nature - because people are. I use whatever serves the moment - drawing from breathwork, somatic practice, self-inquiry, art and language. It is not a fixed toolkit, but a living practice, rooted in the belief that meeting people where they are will always be more important than following a plan.
Always in service of the whole human and their creative magic — guiding people to become present enough to perceive it, and brave enough to bring it into the world.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF GUIDE
What I am and what I'm not
I am not a coach
I guide, facilitate and hold space for you to meet yourself, mentally, emotionally somatically and forge a path forward - that is authentic and true to you.
I am not a therapist
But I listen deeply and use inquiry to uncover patterns in thought and sentiment that drive and hinder you so that you may heal and explore your choices with intention.
I am not an art teacher
I believe we are all creators. I use drawing, writing, movement, breath and sensation to awaken your imagination and bring your creativity to life.
I am not a designer
But I support you in structuring, enhancing and expressing what you offer and create in a way that honours both your own gifts and capabilities, and the people you serve through your craft.
I am not a strategist
I help unfold your path and evolve your creations, not through minute planning, but intentional iteration that favours both your outer impact and inner anchoring. Holds the future vision, but finds steps in the present.
I am not a vending machine for answers
I bring you to your own knowing instead. I lead with questions and an unwavering belief that the answers you already hold in yourself, matter more than any that I could give you.
I am not in a hurry
I centre process and practice over quick fixes and rigid implementation, and lasting change over solutions that only look good.

Podcasts - my own & other's
Conversations are magic. And I've both been a guest and a host to many podcast conversations on a variety of topics. If you want to dive into some of the magic I've been part of before - have a look and pick your flavour below. Currently I also host my own podcast Learning from Trees - you can find it and many other talks on the linked playlist.
On top of a degree...
Most of my greatest teachers have not been the chosen and paid-for courses. They have been moments in life. People I love. Experiences I've had (that I asked for and that I didn't). And then I have of course also learnt a lot of great things. Like how to facilitate. Breathwork healing (steps 1-5) through ongoing study with Michelle Baker and David Elliot. Neuroperspectives on change - and what happens to our nervoussystem in spaces that are transforming with Eva Hamboldt. Purpose and Values in action with Mia Ekman. Creating Meaningful Team Journeys with Magnus Grönblad. Being human in an Exponential reality with Singularity U Nordic (now Re-humanize institute). Immersion in Human Centered and experience design together with bright colleagues like the brilliant Jenny Markstedt.
Many things never make it onto a CV. The absolute rollercoaster of mothering (and trying to do it well). The experience of meeting the world on tiny scale on a cruise-ship and learning about the injustices of the world. The bravery of caring for someone else's child in a language other than your own. Moving to three different countries alone and setting up a life - each time in a new language. Starting a company and a community and going through the process of folding it to follow what felt more true. The list goes on. You can find a more formalised list of my experiences on my LinkedIn, but remember...they are only part of the story.
