Being stress-free is important for you too.

Being stress-free is
important for you too.

You know you’re a high-performing leader–yet the work is costing you time, money and joy. You’re feeling defeated, “too busy” at work, sacrificing family time, and feel like you have to “do it all”. It’s never enough.

Being a boss does not require the sacrifice of you, your time, and your quality of life; and you’re ready to get rid of the BS and find a life of ease.

Life in Ease
Program

Life in Ease is a 3-month coaching program (we meet weekly!) I’ve designed to get busy, stressed-out leaders from neglecting themselves and their family’s needs to saying, “YES, “I have everything I want, I didn’t think that was possible”

In our weekly sessions, we will:

  • Identify what’s holding you hostage in your cycle of stress & anxiety
  • Removing the emotional barriers and stories that keep you from being able to hit the cycle of stress & anxiety (what I like to call, bullshit) head on
  • Understand YOURSELF; your needs and wants, how to ask for them, AND how to fulfill them
  • Install new habits and a new routine that facilitate/support you in being at ease 24/7
  • Create a custom-to-you plan for creating ease and success in business, family, and self-care

Essentially, we’re going to take the bullshit of thought patterns and create space and time for your wants and needs to make you a more balanced, relaxed and confident leader, partner and parent.

GET STARTED

Okay so, how does it work?

We’ll use my 5-step methodology to:

1. Discover

Make a plan surrounding exactly what you want and need

2. Identitify

Find the root of the issue to create a conscious understanding of the root and origin of the issue

3. Generate

We’ll install new beliefs, thought patterns, premises to create a stress free and happy life with a solid foundation

4. Integrate

We’ll rinse and repeat steps 1-3 and weave the new you and habits into your day-to-day life

5. Expansion

We’ll take it further by expanding your growth and bringing you ease and flow to a state of bliss into your life.

What will I get out of working with you?

Will I really get rid of all my stress and anxiety? It’s a completely fair question: what will you get from working with me? Let’s talk about it – as my main focus for you is getting as much value out of work together as possible.

Here’s what you can expect from our work together:

  • Believe everything will be okay (or better)when you walk away from work
  • Reconnect with your partner, both emotionally and intimately (think better sex & conversation!)
  • Time for the essentials: self-care, playing with your kids, hobbies, and business growth
  • Energy–a lot more energy! (who wouldn’t pay millions for this?)
  • Take things less personal; pressures or feedback will be easy to work with and move on from
  • You’ll learn to laugh about your drama and trauma. If not laughing then create a healthy distance between you and your drama
  • Celebrate yourself and be celebrated for the work you’ve done.
  • Feel more appreciated and respected just for being you.
  • Loved by yourself, and others

Successfully balance your business, family, and needs & wants.

Dating all the way back to 1943, a guy named Maslov discovered that every human has 6 basic needs: certainty, variety, significance, connection/love, growth, and contribution.

You are no exception to those needs; that’s 100% okay–it happens. You’re allowed to be human (in case anyone forgot to tell you).

If you’re dealing with things like:

  • Feeling that working harder or more efficient is the solution
  • The feeling that life is passing by without you (fully) enjoying it
  • Consistent battling of feeling irritated, angry, brain fog, uncertainty, exhaustion, inability to turn off your brain, insecurity, perfectionism paralysis
  • Don’t fully trust your colleagues to support you and to do what they were hired for to do
  • Unrest in identity and significance, “What am I doing? Am I enough? What difference am I making in the world and to those I love?”
  • Believe that relaxing is a mythical creature for non-CEOs to be found in fantasy novels
  • Nagging guilt about neglecting your body, partner and wife
  • Knowing you need to do something about how uncomfortable you’re feeling but have no idea where to start
  • Struggling not to identify as a workaholic or stress addict
  • Feel that there is simply not enough time
  • Not feeling supported by those around you

… I’m here to help! You’re already an expert in many things, and with a few internal shifts we can make life work for you, realize you don’t have to do this part alone.

Growth opportunities are abundant (regardless of what you might think); let’s create them for you.

I’ve been there

Hey, I’m Job Smulders and I’m here to help you to become a happy business owner.

Since the age of 30, I started working for myself as a small business owner. Although I would often participate in some self-development courses, I mostly stayed on the surface of knowing myself and avoiding my real pains. I didn’t know at the time, but I was moving through life as a “happy guy”.

But underneath the surface, I carried a lot of struggle, anger, and frustration. I did not feel appreciated, loved, or respected. It was so bad, I would go way more than the extra mile in order to gain some respect. All that resulted in? Me feeling worn out, undeserving of love, overworked, and resentful towards life itself.

 

When my father suddenly died, I was overwhelmed with grief and sadness to a point where I had to confront the pains I was carrying related to my family and upbringing. During the following couple of years, I worked on myself doing all sorts of therapies and coaching while setting my first steps as a career coach myself. Although all these therapies and coaching freed me from most of the drama stories in my life, I still could be pretty easily irritated (and to be honest it can still happen). Just recently I did learn an approach that is able to take the root out of any negative emotion so one can feel the space to focus on the future without being held back by the past.

A totally new man now, I dedicate a big part of my time to assisting other entrepreneurs to free themselves from struggle, stress, and anxiety and move towards a place of joy, ease, and flow.

I am Job, living with my wife and three teenagers in Hilversum.

Since 2015, I have been increasingly approached by people around me as a sparring partner/coach, whatever you want to call it. In recent years, I have actively kept time free in my schedule to be a sounding board for mainly busy professionals between the ages of 35-55.

I live near nature and I walk an average of about 40 kilometers per week. Walking is a breath of fresh air for me, as I am not good at sitting still. 😊 Many of my coaching sessions are done outdoors, while walking. But there is always the option to work indoors in my coaching space.

Appreciation, balance, anger, and being connected. These themes I have extensively experienced and explored myself in recent years and through the multiple coaching trainings I have completed. My fascination lies in how we view our world and how this affects our emotions, our actions, and so our life. I have a large toolkit of methods and interventions. I draw a lot of inspiration and methods from the work of Tony Robbins, Bashar, Brandon Bays, Nick Breau, and many more.

Central to my approach is slowing down to become (more) aware of what we think, what we belief to be true, and what we feel. I do not work according to a fixed methodology, but I use a backpack full of tools. It is beautiful to see and experience that listening, asking questions, walking, short activations, and interventions can lead to real and deep changes in the dozens of people I have guided over the past years.
