My journey has been one of constant growth and evolution. I come from a small Bavarian family, excelling in the traditional educational path, culminating in a doctorate in mathematics. Subsequently, I ventured into the corporate arena, advising international firms on all facets of cloud and data strategy. During this period, I managed data teams with teams of up to 60 employees from 2016 to 2022.
In 2002, my life took a transformative turn when I met Miriam. Our journey together, marked by our 2007 wedding, became a profound voyage of self-discovery:
- I learned the art of effective argumentation, a skill previously uncharted.
- I gained insights into recognizing and managing anger and aggression.
- I delved into the rich tapestry of human emotions, discovering their depth and nuances.
In 2009, our first son entered our lives, followed by our second son in 2011, catapulting us from being a couple to embracing the role of parents. This transition, combined with my ongoing self-exploration, presented unique challenges and led me to part-time work (80%). Despite this shift, I continued my career trajectory, ultimately balancing a thriving career with the joy of raising four children.
Throughout this journey, the connection with Miriam remained an anchor, providing me with profound enrichment. In 2014, fueled by this positive transformation, I veered away from conventional therapy and embarked on a diverse exploration through alternative therapies and seminars. My pursuit encompassed areas such as family constellations, radical permission seminars, radical honesty seminars, nonviolent communication seminars, self-compassion workshops, and body-based heart work. These experiences enriched my consciousness, fostering authenticity and self-responsibility.
My inherent strength lies in my unwavering willingness to embrace new horizons. A profound yearning for equilibrium in my relationships with myself, Miriam, my children, and my work serves as my inner compass. Over the past 15 years, I have encountered numerous hurdles, each of which has contributed to my growth. Today, I am driven to share my experiences with those eager to explore the myriad possibilities for nurturing more efficient, human-centric work environments.
