My Story

For many years, I was the classic ‘insecure over-achieving good girl’ who tied my self-worth to my performance. For years, top grades were everything to me — they became the measure of my worth, the way I earned love, safety, and a sense of belonging. Ouch.

I studied business at the Stockholm School of Economics but had since long wanted to become a doctor, so when I a year later was accepted into Medical school I considered doing both simultaneously — because I was too afraid to choose the ‘wrong’ thing. I also listened way too much to what others thought was right, than to my own inner voice.

One year into Medical school, I realized that I was more passionate about improving the Healthcare system itself than becoming a frustrated (and sadly often powerless) part of it.

So I went back to Business school and thereafter started working in management consulting – because it seemed like the right thing to do, something that “counted” and that others valued highly.

I went on to work for several years in business development and project management, mainly in the healthcare sector. I had the opportunity to lead initiatives such as launching a Prostate Cancer Center, transforming workflows in hospital wards, and driving a shift toward more patient-centered care.

On paper, I was doing exactly what I had dreamed of.

But something didn’t feel right.

Through my work, I saw clearly what supports health – and what was missing. Deep down, I felt a strong longing to work more directly with people, creating real, lasting change and helping to prevent illness before it is too late.

In 2018, I took a leap of faith and left my secure job. I set off on a journey mainly via land, through Asia and Central/South America for about 1.5 years.

I explored practices from all corners of the world – from indigenous retreats to ashram yoga and silent Buddhist meditation retreats with 10 hours of daily meditation practice in total silence. Eventually the mind went calm.

I experienced the transformative power of stillness, presence, music, dance, and movement – and how these practices can affect our nervous system and expand our consciousness.

Slowly but surely, I found my way back to my inner compass.

Since then, I’ve changed paths to focus on what I truly love:

Helping others dare to take the leap toward the life they dream of – through Coaching, Wellbeing, and Embodiment.

I trained as a coach and yoga teacher, and later deepened my knowledge in Self leadership and NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) – with tools that create lasting change. I’ve also completed trainings in facilitation of sound journeys, ecstatic dance/embodided meditation, voice activation and other practices that help regulate the nervous system, find our true voice and inner compass, and create a strong foundation for transformation.

With my background and many years of experience from the corporate world, I know what it’s like to constantly perform under pressure. I know what it’s like to juggle work, relationships, family – and still feel like you’re not enough and that there is something missing.

I also know what it’s like to burn out when the weight of it all becomes too heavy.

One of the turning points for me was accepting and embracing the truth: that I am a “recovering perfectionist” – and that realization became a powerful key to healing and change, in accepting and loving myself as I am.

And I wish to help and guide you along your way back to yourself.

I can’t wait to meet you and take part of your journey.
