“What I loved about talking to Sanne was that she understood the complexity of my situation and the fact that we can’t really separate our work lives from our personal lives, especially in creative professions. Sanne starts her sessions with a small meditation, which instantly helps you feel more present and calmer. If you’re looking for some coaching that focuses on your career, your interests, and an unconventional life path, book some sessions with her.”
Who is this for?
Coaching is for you if you’re navigating:
- Stress, burnout, overwhelm, or professional disillusionment.
- A loss of direction or purpose, or of someone or something.
- The pressure of deadlines, trauma, or isolation (loneliness) in your (media) work.
- A desire to shift your mindset or habits, to rethink your productivity.
- A need to reconnect with your body, values, and intuition.
NB: This is not crisis support or therapy, it’s reflective and strategic work connected to professional practice.
How do I work?
My approach is holistic and grounded. Together, we work on:
- Defining a clear question or goal.
- Exploring systemic, emotional, and somatic layers of your experience.
- Using tools from yoga and meditation theory: breathing and relaxation exercises, yin yoga, and holistic and NLP coaching.
- Creating accountability without forcing.
- Strengthening your ability to trust yourself, not your productivity.
