Born of over 20 years walking alongside leaders and seekers — across continents — rooted in deep study, personal experience and cross-cultural wisdom.
You’ve come far on your own — it’s safe to pause. Sometimes clarity hides in the doing, and what you might need most is to remember what balance feels like.
Welcome
to a space for strategic minds & free spirits navigating life’s inner thresholds — loss, exhaustion, or the aching question, “Who am I now?”
Your Wisdom Is Within
You’re not something to fix.
You don’t have to perform or prove.
You already hold the answers — even if they feel far away.
I walk beside you as you begin to trust that wisdom again, embody it, and live from it — with clarity, compassion & courage.
The Threshold
You’ve achieved, cared, supported — holding it all together with quiet strength and grace even as your world grew heavy. Too many “shoulds”. Too many expectations. The pressure to conform, the fear of disappointing, the sense you must do it alone.
Thinking harder brings no insights. The mind loops, the body aches, joy feels far away.
Then it happens — exhaustion you can no longer override, a loss that cracks you open, or a whisper, “This isn’t me.”
This isn’t failure. It’s an invitation to pause, shed what no longer fits, and return to what does.
Why This Work Matters
In a world obsessed with performance and quick wins, we’re taught to override our signals — to numb our truth, silence our needs, push our bodies, and hustle for worth.
We learn to survive by staying busy, sharp, and endlessly in motion. It keeps life moving… but at a cost: the slow disconnection from what truly matters.
This work matters because you free yourself from inherited expectations, reclaim your inner compass, and restore connection.
From hustling for worth → to finding worth from within.
The Invitation
Step into The Altitude Room — SUKAVANA’s signature experience for those navigating inner thresholds.
Here, you rise above the noise, shifting from overwhelm, looping thoughts, doubt, and distress into deep trust and embodied clarity. This changes how you live, lead, and love.
A co-creative 1:1 process to meet your whole self: mind, body, spirit, and cultural landscape.
We work with the body, the moment, the mystery.
We move, we listen, we feel, we reorient — honestly and tenderly — toward what’s next.
Rooted in modern science - psychology, neuroscience, behavioural science - and traditional wisdom, this integrative process is about reclaiming what’s truly you, with kindness and courage.
This isn’t about forcing momentum or burning it all down. It’s about re-connection — as truth is remembered.
The Shift
As your awareness expands, the noise softens and you stop outsourcing your self-worth and performing what was never truly yours.
You shift from chaos → calm, pressure → alignment, overthinking & concepts → courageous, soul-led action. From that place,
direction returns,
decisions become clear,
relationships feel lighter, more honest,
vitality flows back,
you create impact without burning out,
as you move with presence — embodied trust & clarity.
What You Can Count On
Expertise & supervision. Only what’s tried and proven to work. No fluff.
Structure & flow. Logic and intuition, discipline and grace — held in balance.
Human and steady. Compassionate, challenging, creative.
Lived experience. I’ve walked through many thresholds — loss, exhaustion, reinvention, and life across continents. What I offer isn’t theory, but embodied practice.
A calm place at your pace. Minimal extra time for you — we integrate into your life; learning emerges naturally in day-to-day practice.
Why We Work With Our Body
Because thinking differently
starts with moving differently,
as our body carries the memories
our mind has forgotten.
What We Do Together
We draw from
conversation and stillness,
body-based practices,
reflection and inquiry,
creative and expressive tools,
to restore your body-mind connection, access your intuition and make choices that feel aligned — in your way.
Is This For You?
It’s for you if you’re ready to shift — not into someone else’s version of success, but toward what’s real, what’s enough, and what’s alive.
If you notice the pull to plan, perfect, or hold it all together, this is also for you. Here, you can slow down without losing your edge, listen to your whole intelligence, and step into a way of living that’s disciplined yet free, precise yet expansive.
It’s for those who want to hold their own inner authority while opening to what truly matters, even when it feels messy, uncertain, imperfectly human.
This may not be the right fit if you seek overnight results. And that’s okay — we all have different seasons.
Imagine this…
A few months or even years — from now,
if you keep turning away and overriding your intuition,
life may still look ‘fine’ on the outside.
But inside, the ache and longing might deepen.
And imagine what becomes possible when you start living and leading from your truth.
It’s about honesty — about honouring the part of you that already knows: staying in the familiar has its own cost. One only you can choose to face.
And, even if you can do everything on your own, that doesn’t mean you have to do it alone.

My Roots
I’ve walked many roads — from corporate boardrooms to inner wilderness. I’ve navigated many deep shifts — and learned to live inside unanswered questions.
Born in Berlin, shaped by life in London, Melbourne, Cape Town, and travels beyond, I’ve spent over 20 years working with leaders and seekers across cultures and industries.
What I’ve learned?
Transformation begins in the quiet courage to meet ourselves as we are. There’s no blueprint or single method for everyone. At its heart is re-connection — embracing our uniqueness, honouring our own path, free from societal pressure, and leading with presence and joy, deeply connected to ourselves and each other.
As an Executive Coach (ICF/EMCC) with a cross-cultural practice, I bring this understanding into my work — blending contemporary research, evidence-based practice with enduring wisdom.
