I have lived many lives. This is one story.
I grew up between worlds, and I have spent my life crossing between them ever since. Between cultures, between the corporate and the sacred, between the analytical mind and the knowing body. It is this richness in life which nourishes me and keeps me exploring more.
THE ANTHROPOLOGIST
I studied cultural anthropology because I wanted to understand how people make meaning. How cultures hold what is sacred. It gave me a trained eye for what is real beneath the surface, and a lifelong habit of looking closer.
THE STUDENT OF THE WISDOMKEEPERS
Tanzania changed the direction of everything. Years of living and working there, and a deepening relationship with the Maasai Wisdomkeepers at Mukuru Sacred Site, taught me what no university or boardroom could: that wisdom is not information. It is a way of being with life. I did not just visit that world. I was welcomed into it, and it rearranged me.
THE PROFESSIONAL
A corporate career carried me all over the world. I learned how organisations work, how leaders carry pressure, and what it costs to perform a life instead of living one. I know that world from the inside, and I left it with respect and without regret.
THE ENTREPRENEUR
Today I build. A travel company, a coaching practice, an art and film studio, a podcast, a book, a digital studio. I became a certified mBIT Master Coach and Trainer along the way, and I bring all of it together under one mission: creating experiences that make people feel alive. And the horizon keeps opening, with new destinations and new creations on their way.
Why I do this?
Because I believe most people are not tired of life. They are tired of not feeling it.
My mission is to offer experiences that make you feel alive. That let you experience love, in its widest sense. That return you to your sense of self and soul. Sometimes that experience is a journey through Tanzania. Sometimes it is a film, a card, a conversation, a single sentence in a book. The form varies. The intention never does.
The Medicine: Personal Tales of Awakening and Inner Transformation
Before I guided anyone, I walked my own path through loss, awakening and rebuilding. The Medicine is the honest record of that journey, written for everyone who suspects that their pain is not the end of their story.
What’s next?
The journey is not a story I tell about the past. It is something I am always in the middle of. This is what I am living and making right now.
THE NEXT ADVENTURE: SURINAME & MEXICO, 2026
This year I travel to Suriname & Mexico. It is a double journey: a personal one, tracing my own roots and filming this journey, and an entrepreneurial one, exploring Suriname & Mexico as the next Spiral Boma destinations. Deep nature & jungle, living cultures, rivers that lead into the Amazon. I will be sharing the journey as it unfolds.
-
I’m writing and directing a couple of short films together with Ibrahim Hassan about the human experiences of life’s trials.
-
I’m working on a new podcast about the sacred in every day life. The depth and magic of ordinary moments inspire me to create this podcast.
-
Planing to add destination Suriname & Mexico to my portfolio, and possibly Asia next in 2027!

A new oracle deck in the making, and several apps to support embodiment practices, follow the aliveness studio for more.
