How does a successful media appearance by executives enhance the reputation and value of an organisation?

Long before remote management became ‘the new normal’, I managed pan-European projects and motivated international teams to collaborate successfully via video conferencing. My professional career took me to London, Brussels, Vienna and Zurich. I developed the ability to quickly build professional and personal networks, gain the trust of diverse teams and integrate seamlessly into new corporate cultures. Despite numerous challenges, my cosmopolitan life was rich in acquaintances and colourful in experiences. Like a racehorse, I worked in two gears: 'fast' or 'faster'. But suddenly my body demanded a break. A gastrointestinal disorder, leaky gut syndrome, forced me to rest and reflect. Exhausted in the hamster wheel, I realised how life in the fast lane combined with my own high expectations was getting to me. Having learned to function, I dragged myself through months of meeting marathons, always with the question in the back of my mind:

How can I strengthen my resources to not only survive in a demanding job, but to succeed calmly?

What began as a personal healing journey quickly developed into profound study. Numerous seminars and further training in nutrition, holistic health, meditation and mindfulness led to a fundamental lifestyle change. Surprisingly, I felt more energetic and powerful than ever before. Further career leaps followed. Today, I share this knowledge in lectures, mentoring and coaching journeys. Triggered by my health crisis, I soon asked myself what I wanted to use my valuable life energy for. Various coaching courses at internationally renowned institutes followed. Since 2020, I have been helping managers and teams to work more effectively, lead more mindfully and live more healthily at the same time. The question of meaning was not just about myself, but also about the bigger picture. Even as a student, long before “social entrepreneurship” and “impact investing” were common terms, I was concerned with the question:

How can economic activity have a positive impact on the well-being of the planet?

My thesis on corporate social responsibility marked the beginning of my interest in sustainability and the circular economy. Today, I am passionate about supporting individuals, teams and start-ups in finding their purpose and creating the most positive impact possible. I offer a platform for female founders, for example via my podcast or my salon events.

As a coach, consultant and mentor to leaders and teams, I live my professional fulfilment. With a deep understanding of the light and dark sides of professional leadership roles, I want to help shape a world in which success, well-being and sustainability can be lived alongside each other.
