Welcome to the starting line of your freelance venture
Founder coaching
I have been here
Four years ago, I decided to make a career change and set up as a freelance coach. It wasn’t easy at first; I was lacking self-confidence, and I was terrified that it wouldn’t work. But along the way, I discovered that entrepreneurship is a genuine playground for personal growth and uncovering one’s inner power. It’s also a means of serving the world. The entrepreneurs I work with aspire to contribute to a better, fairer, and more respectful world.

We’ll dig into the details of what you’ll provide to really understand what makes your work special. We’ll also figure out the best pricing strategy to highlight the value of your work.

The business coaching with Elise was fundamental in helping me transition to self employment. She is a great coach and person! She clarified a lot of my doubts and helped me prepare a business and financial plan.

Stefanie has launched her yoga courses for businesses
I wanted to clarify my business plan and design my offering realistically and personalized.
A significant lesson from this coaching was that my fears and inner obstacles will not prevent me from achieving my dream. I have also become more aware of the concrete steps to reach my goals. My project now seems possible to me.
I loved starting the sessions with meditation! During the sessions, I felt heard, and you always knew how to adapt to my needs at each session. I would wholeheartedly recommend coaching to my friends. Coaching is not just a great framework for launching one’s business, but also a wonderful journey towards one’s own empowerment.

Hi! I'm Elise,
From social start-up manager to holistic career and business coach 💖
After a master in business and finances and working for 3 years as the manager of a social start-up in Berlin, I decided to quit my job. I’d learned what there was to learn and most importantly it was time to fulfil a big dream that had been tickling me for years: travelling alone. So I put my happy-busy life in Berlin on hold and headed off to Peru. For the next 6 months, I travelled around South America on my own.
The experience changed me profoundly.
Back in Berlin, I decided to listen to that little voice inside me that was whispering to me to become a coach. I took a training course and then started my coaching business.
It wasn’t easy at first: I didn’t have any self-confidence and I was terrified that it wouldn’t work. I wasn’t sure who I wanted to work with and I didn’t really have any offers either. I wasn’t sure what to post on instagram and I didn’t like having to sell myself.
That all changed when I started working with coaches. I worked on my self-confidence, learned to manage my fears and transformed my relationship with money and sales. I also went back to the basics of my business to develop my offers to serve my ideal clients.
Since then, I’ve dedicated my time to helping people create their ideal professional life 🚀
“Imagine yourself 6 months from now, working with clients you LOVE and who leave with incredible results because you know exactly how to help them!”
