HOW I CAN HELP
Judging by the feedback I have received through the many years I have worked as an author, lecturer, leadership trainer, mentor and entrepreneurial coach, I’m an inspiring catalyst for people and companies wishing to create a brighter future for themselves and others.
I help people and businesses adapt to 21st century paradigms so they can become uplifting frontrunners who think bigger, contribute more, see clearly, are able to to surf on chaos and show a sustainable way forward by illuminating the landscape, even in the dark.
I have the gift of being able to spot the potential in people and businesses and help them develop it. I have a sense of which leadership is “calling” and how to realize it, even with pleasure.
I’m constantly learning myself (currently belly dance!) and teach only what inspires me. I’m known for my ability to gather different tools, perspectives and people, and connect them in a way so that they benefit from each other and create results that could not otherwise have been achieved so effectively. I enjoy witnessing so many of the people I’ve met on my trainings flourish and leave the world better than when they found it.
What most pleases are all the heartwarming often lasting relationships that are created between participants and to experience my leadership training participants help, support and nurture each other in unpredictable ways.
HOW I THINK
I am a creative, intuitive, visionary and solution-oriented person dedicated to leadership.
I believe that the era where leadership comes from appointed authorities is passé. Today, everybody must grab a task to help solve the many complex issues facing us collectively.
The art is to figure out how to contribute to the community, start doing it and refining along the way.
In my perspective it is important that we all take co-responsibility for co-creating the future, both our own and the common.
I would like to help ensure that the development of our humanity keeps up to speed with the technological development, so technology does not become a heartless dominator, but a servant of a conscious humanity.
I’m a networker. You do not hire a one-woman band, except if you prefer so. I have the privilege of knowing some of the most inspiring people in the world, and jointly, we can solve larger tasks.
I believe in “lifelong learning.” Therefore, I have founded the web video media eKSplore and the podcast The Future is Feminine , where I interview leaders with and without title, so I can keep growing and the wisdom and cutting edge inspiration I find with others.

HOW I WORK
I am visionary and have often been quoted in the media because I point out mega trends before they become mainstream. I work as a transforming catalyst for internal and external growth. I don´t just ask “the right questions.” I see the potential of people and businesses, and help them achieve it by revealing and releasing unconscious blockages, and incorporating new mindset and habits that are consistent with the highest vision. I prefer to teach groups, but it´s also possible to book an individual session.
MY BACKGROUND

I’ve also contributed to the # 1 Amazon Bestseller Shine Your Light, Powerful Practises for an Extraordinary Life along with the NY Times bestsellers authors Janet Bray Attwood, Chris Attwood and Marci Smirnoff. I have grown up in an international environment and worked 10 years as a free lance journalist in New York, focusing on new trends. I have taken a number of “inner career” trainings, among others as Kundalini Yoga instructor and Evolutionary Coach. I have also studied leadership, energy work, business, etc. – currently I am studying oriental women´s wisdom and belly dance. I live in Frederiksberg with my husband and am the mother of three children, two on earth and one in heaven. My book The Future is Feminine – The 7 Pillars of 21st Century Leadership that take you and your business from Great to Extraordinary is on it´s way in English.
BOOK AN INDIVIDUAL SESSION
My purpose is to help you become an Illuminary Leader
– at home, at work and in the world.
The fact that you have found this page tells me that
you have the potential to be one of the new Illuminairies:
a lighthouse that shines in the dark and shows the path forward.
You have probably heard the Calling for a while,
and now the time has come to respond.
Indeed, you are needed as a vital resource to help take Humanity to a new and better place: a World that works for All.
My personal mission is to source a loving network of 10.000 Illuminary Leaders within the next 10 years who each affect at least 10.000 people.
This way, we can form a tipping point that can lift each other and Humanity to heights beyond our wildest imagination.
If this resonates with you you have come to the right place.
The first step is to find out whether we are a fit.
I look much forward to meeting you.
