Does this sound familiar?
Your energy goes to things that don't move you. By the evening you're empty, without quite knowing where it went.
You say yes when you feel a no. In meetings you don't share what you really think. You adapt, a little more every day.
On the outside it all works. Inside, you wonder whether you're doing this because you want to, or because it's simply how things run.
That nagging feeling isn't weakness. It's the sign that there's more in you than you're showing.
Where this goes
Something in you has been ready to come alive again for a while: less held back, more you.
The approach
Most personal development stays stuck in your head. You analyse, you make a plan, and still little shifts. That's because your head tells you what you want to hear. Your body has known for a long time what's really going on.
So I work with both. With conversation, and with what your body shows. I draw on Eastern medicine to see where your energy gets stuck and what it takes to get you moving again. You don't need to know any of it to feel the benefit.
What clients say
"At an important point in my career, her coaching truly made the difference. She quickly got to the heart of things, asked the right questions, and helped me get clear on my strengths, goals, and areas for growth."
"What I valued most was her personal approach. She listened well, held up a mirror in a positive way, and gave me practical tools I could put to use right away. Thanks to her guidance, I gained more confidence in my own abilities and took the right steps in my career.
That growth eventually led to a promotion to a senior role. Of course I put in the work myself, but her coaching absolutely made a real contribution to that.
I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone serious about investing in their personal or professional development. She's engaged, knowledgeable, and has a genuine way of getting people moving."
"Coaching with Marjolein feels completely natural. She lets you fully lead on what you want, and helps you get clear on your real question. When she coached me, I doubted myself a lot. Through the coaching I became more confident in myself, and dared to take a new career step with confidence!"
Wesley — Stakeholder ManagerWhat to expect
We start by stopping. Nothing you have to do for a moment. That is usually when you notice how hard you were running.
You tell me what is going on. I also watch what your body does while you talk. There is often information there you stopped noticing yourself.
An insight, a shift or a first step. Sometimes a small experiment to take with you, always concrete and manageable.

About Marjolein
I worked as a consultant in change management and strategy implementation, and was good at it. Yet I was always in my head, and I noticed what that did to my energy. That led me to a four-year training in body-oriented therapy and Eastern medicine, and to the work I do now.
I see it in a lot of smart, ambitious people: they have a sharp sense and strong intuition, and they've stopped using it. That's exactly where this work helps.
I didn't want less. I wanted more of myself, and to turn my work from a cage into a playground.
