A welcome from your coach!
"Hi, Welcome to The Body Mind Coach! I am your Head Coach here, and for many years I have helped many people of all ways of life and ages to improve their lives and fulfil their potential - from the very young to establish a solid foundation for life, pro athletes to qualify for the Olympics and championships, managers to reach their next career level, companies to improve their employees' health and reduce dropout- and burnout-rates, parents to raise resilient children, people to come back from injury or illnesses or take their very first steps into a more active and healthy life, and seniors to increase their health span.
I have always been passionate about sports and the role of the brain for performance. Throughout my sports career as an age-group athlete and my business career in top management positions, I have seen many athletes and managers crumble under pressure whilst other rose to the challenge and got ahead of the others.
That made me seek out further education in that area and I qualified as a Sport and Business NLP Practitioner and gained a Masters in Science (MSc) in Performance Psychology from the University of Edinburgh. What was astonishing were two things: Firstly, that the same principle apply to all areas of (high) performance - may it be sport, business, the performing arts, or being a parent. Secondly, that all the information is available in research, but has never been translated into practice. So I decided to take the plunge and leave my business job to develop a practical no-nonsense programme combining all this scientific research with my practical experience in sports and business.
Over the years, I have developed a unique state-of-the-art coaching system to help you reach your goals, fulfil your potential and ultimately live your life better. I always make sure our trainings are personalised, professional, and a lot of fun! That's my commitment to providing you with the best training out there.
I have put my passion into coaching since, coaching individuals, sport teams, managers, businesses, children and parents as well as being a sought after speaker for seminars and workshops. I lectured Leadership and High performance at the University of Edinburgh and St.Andrews University for 9 years and worked with the Scottish Triathlon Talent Squad as their mental skills coach and talent developer. I am also mum to two amazing children and happily married to my wonderful Irish husband."
