What I focus on at this point in my life

Update May 2026

  • Completing a first aid course. Was on my list for a while, living in a rural area, with a young child, and I’m glad I finally got around to it.
  • Coaching and sparring with a range of people inside one organisation, from founder to HR lead to head of advisory. I like the depth that comes with that.
  • Just wrapped a larger project: turning existing habits into a full HR infrastructure. Job profiles, salary framework, policies, feedback cycles, performance and growth conversations. Evaluating and finetuning, happy to see it work.
  • Getting involved in my neighbourhood as a volunteer.
  • This month: insulating our new home. 🏠
  • Creating headspace by bringing order to the behind-the-scenes: Notion, administration, a new accountant.
  • Exploring the options of adding my surname to Bram’s last name. The process has its gaps, so I’m navigating that slowly.
  • Making sense of matriarchy + what it means for the work I’ve done and the position I want to take.

Update May 2025

  • Gained coaching for personal understanding of a change in roles, energy and values.
  • Attending a course in business planning, as I want to practice + plan for a more sustainable use of my energy as solo-entrepreneur in the long run.
  • Tending to the shifts in my client-base: meeting women in leadership, as well as multi-talented young adults. Love it.
  • Bringing the workshop to people & organizations.
  • I write more often (in order to lighten up about creating, sharing and experimenting).
  • Finding my peers and way in the local community, as proud mom of a 2-yr old 🫶.
  • Supporting my partner while he is building our home 🌍.

Update May 2024

  • Developing ‘Speak, learn, lead’, a feedback and development workshop.
  • Training & Development Lead at a boutique accountancy firm in Amsterdam.
  • Supporting the PASMO research program, as member of the advisory board.
  • Development of www.bighearted.nl.
  • Making tweaks and edits to content on this website.
  • Getting used to my new role as Mom-of-Bram 👶.
  • Building a house in Almere Oosterwold 🌍.
