CREATE A LIVING LEGACY
"I help 6-8-figure entrepreneurs and executives elevate their success way beyond monetary aspects without wasting lots of time.
I achieve this through my extensive international experience and my unusual formats that are focused on clarity, implementation and lasting results."
SUCCESS IS ADDICTIVE!
Most people believe that the time for footprints is only after one's death. What an absurd idea!
Wouldn't it be so much more fulfilling to reach extraordinary heights during your lifetime, to achieve and do the most amazing things, to grow your company by factor X, to finally write the book you've always dreamed of, to build success far beyond monetary aspects, to experience incredible things and to have real impact in this world? To unleash the potential that's been slumbering for all those years and finally leave mediocrity behind? And to Wouldn't that be great?
​
Yes or yes?
FULFILLED UNFULFILLED
From the outside, it looks like you have achieved everything, you have 'made it'. Whatever 'it' may represent: money, career, a big title on your business card, an even bigger car, the impressive designer house and maybe even the seemingly perfect family.
A perfect life. Apparently. But deep down you may know the feeling of being 'fulfilled unfulfilled'... this level of emptiness and distant longing for something you might not even have identified - despite all your success. The feeling that this can't be 'it', that there has to be more, that live should once and for all be about you and your innermost potential and dreams.
​
Do you know this feeling? Yes? Then we should talk!
RESULTS, NOT VISIONS!
I'm no big fan of fancy visions, flowery dreams and eccentric ideas.
I am 100% committed to implementation, lasting results, and real ROI.
For me, the result of a top level coaching or a keynote speech is not the vision of a greater life, but the implemented results - concrete, measurable, done!
High performers don't talk about 'speed of implementation', they live it!
​
END YOUR SELF-DECEPTION!
How are you ever going to fly with eagles when you surround yourself with penguins?
​
How do you want to ascend to new heights if you keep returning to the safety of your familiar environment?
​
There comes a moment in life when you can turn intelligent self-deception into an unequivocal YES for yourself and your life!
​
The biggest challenge of self-responsibility is to finally take responsibility for yourself.

PODCAST
The podcast is not a typical success, personal development or mindset talk. This podcast is about more than monetary successes, fancy buzzwords or a hallelujah for self-development. CREATE A LIVING LEGACY is about real impact, implementation and results.
​
This podcast is for you if your life is not 'too much', but rather 'not enough'. If mediocrity isn't really an option, if you've already achieved great things (even if you probably don't see it that way... which is the case with many high performers...), if you know the feeling of 'fulfilled unfulfilled' and long for exchange on eye level.
​
CREATE A LIVING LEGACY takes an unconventional look at life and its incredible possibilities. With exceptional guests from all over the world, deep insights and inspiring stories.
