About Me
Hi, I’m Job. I’m a Life Coach
I practices a myriad of modalities including NLP, Inner Child Healing, Gestalt Therapy, Journey Work, and more.
Having been an entrepreneur and business owner for years, I know the importance of self-improvement but I also understand first-hand that it can be easier said than done. We weren’t created to do this alone, and I’m here to personally guide you from where you are to where you’d like to be
My mission
My philosophy is that happiness, ease, and good relations are not a place we reach but rather it is through these that we reach the place we’re seeking. By assisting you in eliminating whatever is in your way, you are able to expand into a state of utter bliss and harmony.
Being raised in a catholic and intellectual family as the youngest of six children, I grew up in a small village in the south of the Netherlands as ‘imports.’ That stamp could describe somewhere between ‘alien’ and ‘not one of us.’ Still, I’d prefer ‘strange but interesting.’
Nonetheless, feeling like an outsider stuck with me until I was 12 years old. But being the youngest of six children, with a father and a sister who struggled with mental health, I made a promise to myself. I swore I’d always look for outside help if I ever needed it.
In my thirties, I began diving headfirst into personal development. I always knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur, but instead of being a joyful experience, I was more focused on the weight, struggle, and heaviness that comes with that.
For me, it started with a book called “Unlimited Power” by Tony Robbins. I wanted to know more, so I completed an NLP practitioner training; at that stage, I had to coach myself more than others. Although I would often coach my friends (wanted and unwanted), I continued the path of self-development merely for myself.
When my dad suddenly died and I struggled to manage my grief and emotions, a deeper dive into myself began with the help of Gestalt Therapy, Regression Therapy, Family Constellations, Journey Work, etc.
The inner work liberated me from the most significant trauma and drama and improved my life in all aspects. But the tricky part was that I was unconsciously carrying around negativity and struggle until I discovered a methodology that efficiently clears negative beliefs, behavior, and emotions.
Although my life was already improving daily, I still found myself tired because of effort and struggle in my business. I would get offended and hurt by ‘other people’ when they lacked appreciation towards me or my actions. Unexpected events which I could classify as unfavorable could trigger me and ruin my day.
The good news is that
I have now cleared all (or most) of that in the last couple of years simply by using some incredibly effective techniques and methodologies that I now use to help my clients.
If you are at a place where you feel you’re searching for a life of ease–
- One where you are appreciated and feel that your relationships are meaningful;
- A life where you feel you are living on purpose and in your purpose; one where you claim your space and speak your truth towards your spouse, colleagues, or employees – I’m your man.
I’ve been there, and I get it.
My purpose is to show you the way back home to the person you were created to be and live a life full of peace.
If you are an entrepreneur
Struggling with Stress or Anxiety
Feeling unappreciated and unloved
Struggling to claim your space and speak your truth
I’d love to be a part of guiding you through the process of uncovering the layers in which pure potential lives. It’s within you and I believe in you!
Fun facts about me:
- My escape is in nature with (or without) Keet, our time-shared dog. If she is not joining me, you can see me walking with a headset to listen to a MindValley course or podcast.
- My favorite Netflix series are Seinfeld which my kids call a series for ‘Boomers’ only, and Modern Family. That last one I often watch with my daughter, and we have enormous fun doing that.
- I’m happily married with three children aged 10, 13 and 15.
- I’ve grown to love meditation so much that my kids make fun of how happy it makes me. It often gets to the point that my happiness annoys the shit out of them. They say, “Watch out, Daddy did his meditation!”
- I own two small businesses outside of my Coaching business: Event Catering and a Touristic website/platform.
