Hi, I’m Saskia.

 

And I have a vision of a new generation of leaders who are attuned to their values and worthiness, deeply connected to the people around them and wholly supportive of the unique gifts that the humans in their life bring to the table. Leaders that change families, friend groups, workplaces and businesses. Leaders that change the world through softness, realness, and joy.

And I see YOU in that vision, too.

I’m a yoga and meditation teacher, business coach and consultant.

With my work, I’m on a mission to support soulpreneurs, just like you, who struggle with the overwhelm of setting up a profitable and heart-led Soul Biz. I support you to create a sustainable foundation and ultimate clarity so you can share your magic with the people who are ready to receive it. Your way.

 
 

After studying at the University of Applied Sciences of the Deutsche Bundesbank I spent five years in banking supervision where I learnt a lot about what it means to not make the impact you desire to make and stand your ground in a very stereotypically male working environment.

After taking a break to travel around the world for 14 months, I moved to New Zealand and started my business journey. First, as a yoga teacher, circle facilitator and retreat host as well as studio manager and even co-founder of a studio and later on as a meditation and empowerment coach.

What really gets me going are women with big dreams and bold visions and magical gifts to share who are sold the idea that there’s only one formula for doing business and “if you don’t see success then you’re probably not trying hard enough”. #barf

You can always get a good impromptu speech out of me when you're asking me why the patriarchal structures that still define how we live are outdated for literally every single human and need to be changed from the inside out.

In my work, I draw on my colourful experiences of being a woman in the wellness industry, from successes all the way to failures.

Featured In

I live my life by trial and error - and you can trust me to share everything I’m learning through all my successes and all my failures (because - let’s be real - there’s much more to learn through failure anyway) with you.

And I’ve tried a lot: corporate work, travelling off the beaten track, my own yoga and meditation studio, self-employment, some really out-there self-development stuff - just to name a few of the occasions where I gathered valuable insights into the world, the human mind and cultural conditioning.

Through this work, I’m sharing all my failures, my successes, my learnings and my experiences to help you avoid what truly were some rough times in my personal and business journey and to find that shortcut towards sharing your magic your way.

My core values are…

… AUTONOMY - never was I more miserable than when other people dictated my time, and never am I happier than when I create my own schedule and terms to live by.

… COMPASSION - experiencing what it’s like to be in a completely judgement-free zone for the first time as an adult changed my life and I feel the importance of seeing a matter through someone else’s eyes at my very core.

… GROWTH - questioning the status quo and looking for ways to live a more joyful and fulfilled life is at my very core. This even made it in my husband’s wedding vows when he claimed I’d try to make our lives 10% better every day.

… MEANINGFUL WORK - as soon as I feel like the work I’m doing doesn’t create the positive impact in the world I desire, I have to move on.

What you might want to know about me:

 

I live in Hamburg, Germany. I moved here in 2022 after having made Dunedin, New Zealand my home for four years. I was born in Eastern Germany, grew up in your typical working-class family and early on started to dream of creating my very own version of a “good life”.

Education, learning and growing are my soft spots. In the past ten years, I’ve completed a university degree, countless days of professional training, hundreds of hours of education, spent a couple of months with mentors, and had my own coaches walk beside me.

I hold a degree in Central Banking from the Bundesbank University of Applied Sciences.

I completed a 10-month meditation & mentoring training with Kings Meditation & Mentoring.

I completed courses in Hatha Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra. Over the course of three years, I not only taught around 1000 hours of yoga and meditation but also hosted transformational retreats and women’s circles and co-founded a yoga & meditation studio.

I worked with business coaches and mentors from all across the spectrum.

And most importantly: I have five years of experience in the corporate environment and five years of experience as a soulpreneur under my belt - what else could you wish for?

I deeply believe in a world changed from the inside out by People sharing their unique magic with the world through their unique approach.

What People Are Saying

I worked with Saskia 1:1 for nine weeks. 

She tailored the programme to my needs as I asked her for guidance and support in different areas. 

I needed help with deconditioning, regaining focus and clarity and also advice with my business.


Saskia guided me very confidently, gently but firmly with a lot of encouragement.

Thank you Saskia, beautiful heart-centred Leader.
