Exploring our full human potential and living it joyfully is at the heart of Esther’s life. Despite suffering from a wide range of allergies and severe asthma, she was physically trained in professional sports. Her intellectual curiosity got her an MSc in Social and Organizational Psychology from the London School of Economics. Esther’s first 20 years were about ambition, performance and willpower – and got her “far”.
The next 20 years brought wisdom, healing and balance – and brought her home. Esther learned that, next to our mental qualities, there is so much power and wisdom in our emotional, physical and spiritual intelligence for all aspects of life. And that we all have these capacities. After a few years in management consultancy, more and more she wondered: “Why do we not use our full potential? And why do we not learn to do this in school? So that we are all able to live fully, to be more joyful, healthy and peaceful?”
With this question, the genie was out of the bottle. In 2010, she founded her own business, providing guidance to leaders and leaders-to-be in living their full potential. She’s lecturing and teaching at universities, facilitating leadership retreats and development programs and loving every bit of it. Because she learned to nurture her own potential, she healed her allergies and asthma and trusts her intuition and sensitivity. It gave her a strong foundation to support and inspire others to explore their potential. And live it joyfully! Today, she continues exploring, so she can contribute to more joy, health and peace everywhere she goes.
