A Glimpse into my World

The Co-creation begins

It's hard to sum up a life in one neat little box, so I won't even try. Instead, let me share a few of the threads that weave my story.

Roots & Wandlust

I'm Austrian by birth, but my heart has homes in Italy, Malta, and many other places. Since 2008, I have been firmly planted in Belgium, where my life is a rich tapestry of languages, cultures, and connections.

My Calling

For years, my company "Lost in translation?" was about finding the right words, in translation & interpreting.

 

It was the arrival of my son that truly changed my world forever. As a multitasking business-running mother, I understood firsthand the challenges and joys of raising the next generation. This experience prompted me to go deeper, training first as a parental coach and then as a family and personal development coach. It was here that I truly learned to guide individuals and families to find their own language of being.

My most magical
Co-creators

​In 2020, I met a Frisian mare and her foal, and my life changed yet again. Today, I am blessed to co-create with four magnificent horses, including a herd of three stallions living together in harmony. They are my partners in horse-assisted coaching, and their wisdom and acute sense of the unseen bring a truly special magic to the work we do.

My Passion & Purpose

I am also a passionate Secretary General of the European Parents' Association, a furole that allows me to advocate for parents and work for future generations from yet another angle. EPA is a family to me in itself, built on shared values and a commitment to making the world a better place.

​

And in my quieter moments, I'm a co-creator with cats, guinea pigs, chickens, and the other beautiful beings who fill my home.

Putting the Heart
at the centre

In all of this, whether I'm working with individuals, families, organizations, or my herd, the core of my philosophy remains the same: I believe that every being and every moment is a contribution to a greater whole. This is the foundation from which I help my clients navigate their own complexities, find clarity, and move forward with purpose.

 

This is my world—a magical place where authentic connection is the most powerful tool we have.
