Experiences of others
'This program has provided the depth I needed to free myself from everything that keeps me small. There is a big difference between knowing and experiencing. I have done quite a bit in the past in the area of personal development. As a result I knew a lot rationally, but not quite 'how' yet. The program enabled me to look at myself even deeper and I dared to take steps. The result is that I now more easily stay close to myself and dare to make the right choices. In a few months I have grown tremendously in this. My confidence has a boost received and the I manage to relax better. Katja makes sure you actually experience what finding peace in yourself is. She has an enormous amount of knowledge and she knows this in a very pleasant way to translate into practical exercises that you can work with yourself. In addition, she is a very sweet, warm and positive woman who feels exactly what you need. A more beautiful gift you cannot give yourself!

'I am super happy with this program. It touches me on a soul level and therefore really breaks old patterns. Her program has given me a lot, from always being harsh and judgmental towards myself, I am now more gentle and loving. By being less in the doing-mode and more in the being-mode I am again starting to feel more connected to who I am at the deepest level. From there, I now make different choices and have become more myself. Katja shares and teaches a delightful down-to-earth manner with appropriate humor. She prevents you from putting her on a pedestal, because she shows the road she too has gone and is still going down, just like every human being. Her program helps you remember who you really are.'

'This program does a lot for me. I have never found it difficult to show my emotions, yet always only up to a certain level. I am now starting getting in touch with myself and touch emotions I wasn't aware of. I really like the audio exercises and repeat them regularly. The group interaction I also really liked. Open and positive. Interaction with others also helps me clarify things for myself. Also seeing that others are running into similar "issues" gives recognition and a connection to each other. The Katja's coaching program was a kind of turbo charger which set an awful lot in motion that I otherwise would have been struggling with on my own for years.'

'Two years ago I took a meditation course with Katja. She struck me then by her calmness and her rock-solid, genuine kindness. After that, I also did her coaching program. This program has been very important to me. The exchange of knowledge and experience was essential, of course, but what helped and touched me the most was the purity in contact. Katja is not only an intelligent, loving -and non-judgmental coach. She draws from a vast life source, with which she always tunes into you in the moment, asks powerful questions and shares insights with you. By living for what she tells, I learned to understand and let go of my thoughts. I learned that everything is allowed to be, indeed: that everything there is meant to be exactly that way. This gives an enormous relaxation and peace in my body and mind. The cooperation with Katja, but also the contact with the other coachees, has fed my soul. I allow myself much more of that. I would recommend this coaching program if you have felt all your life that your existence matters and are curious if you are on the right track. That you are here on earth to be meaningful in any way. Katja is then the best coach you could wish for.'
