This is where ambitious high-achievers become brave, heart-led change makers — rewriting the rules and building life on their own terms.
Going against the grain of societal norms is the standard in my world. Challenging the status quo is what we do. Breaking the mold is what we love.
If you’ve landed here on this page, chances are that you are not like ‘most people’. Your life ticks all the boxes and you’ve always done everything ‘right’. The career, the house, the education, the money - by society’s standards, you’re successful. But deep down, you always felt you wanted - needed! - more. And you have an aching desire to do life differently.
My work calls in heart-led, high-achievers who are done fitting into a system that isn’t aligned with their desires. The men and women I work with in my coaching programs and retreats are the ones who crave more out of life. Who don’t want to settle for mediocre. Who are done living in the status quo. They want to challenge it.
They want to live life on their terms.
They crave more freedom, more spaciousness in their schedule, more confidence, more peace and slow living. And all that while excelling in their careers, building epic businesses and attracting beautiful relationships and people into their lives. They want to shift their definition of success to one that ticks all of the above.
They want to ditch the stressful hustle and grind, and finally take up the space as the leader they know they are deep down (and yes, YOU are a leader too. Trust me, you wouldn’t be here otherwise).
Most of us grew up learning that “you can’t have it all”. I dare to challenge that! I believe you cán have it all.
“To have all these advantages, all this momentum, all these opportunities and then settle for mediocre and then defend the status quo and then worry about corporate politics - what a waste. I don’t think we have a choice. I think we have an obligation to change the rules, to raise the bar, to play a different game, and to play it better than anyone has any right to believe is possible.

Here’s how we get you there:
With my proven coaching & embodiment framework: The Rooted Method ©
The foundation of this method is key: the answers to your life are in your body. Not your mind. Yet, we all grow up learning that we have to solve every problem with our brains. But you can’t ‘think’ your way out of bigger life decisions and painful situations. We need to feel it. Process it. Heal it. And here’s where most of us go wrong. So, the body is where we begin…
CONNECT | Reconnect with your body, heart and intuition, because that’s where you’ll find the answers to your life. Not in your head - in your body. Here we let go of repressed emotions and experiences through deep somatic work.
CLARITY | Access a deep sense of clarity, remember who you are and what you truly desire for this life. Here you’ll reclaim your purpose and set a clear direction for your life. This will become your new inner compass.
COURAGE | Here you learn to face your fears, to process these hard feelings in a healthy way, and turn them into a portal of courage and confidence to create the change you desire in your life. Courage is a decision.
CONTAINMENT | Knowing your patterns, blocking beliefs and dreams is one thing, but living them is next level. Learn to integrate and embody all of this with love and to trust yourself in leading yourself towards the life you desire.
Hi, my name is Myrthe!
Ex-corporate consultant, Type A personality, a go-getter, high achiever, passionate and driven, yet feminine and in my softer, slower, no-bra era, living my best life under the Portuguese sun.
My career started in Financial Consulting, in which I worked for 7 years, across Amsterdam and Singapore. So you can guess, I’ve got a story to tell. It took me many years, several breakdowns, lots of courses and trainings, a ton of inner work and even more courage to step away from the mundane, safe, within-the-box life I grew up in and follow the call of my heart. So I went from working 70 hours a week in a well-paid, high-potential job, walking around in high heels and fancy dresses every day, to living my dream life in Portugal, close to the ocean, a house in a green valley, running a soul-led, purpose-driven business where I get to choose slow mornings and a spacious calendar.
It wasn’t easy. It took everything from me to break out of the mold and choose my own path (and to keep choosing it every day!). I had to work through my deepest fears around money, safety and worthiness, let go of friends, family and lovers who didn’t understand my path and start all over multiple times in multiple countries, all while building a business and building myself. But I did.
And I wish the same for you.
Your vision for your life will probably look different, but the point is this: everyone deserves to live their life fully in alignment with who they are deep down and their wildest dreams (and for some, those ‘wild’ dreams are ‘just’ a tiny house on a green hill with a bunch of chickens, growing their own veggies, slow mornings, financial freedom, conscious partnership… Ok, busted, that’s me, haha!).
Your ‘wild’ is whatever you decide it to be. As long as it’s yours.
But go after it. Please. You owe it to yourself. And to the next generation. Let’s be a better example for our children. Let’s not follow the rules. Let’s make our own.
You were never meant to fit into the system. You were meant to build your own.
Inside my world, (wo)men…
Learn to face their fears, so that those same fears don’t stop them anymore from making bold life decisions and going after their desires
Deeply reconnect with their bodies and hearts, so that they remember who the F they are, and what they truly want in this life
Build lives on their terms, so that they can welcome in more freedom, spaciousness, a slower pace and meaningful connections
Reclaim their inner power, so that they can step into the most successful version of themselves, thriving in their careers and businesses and making more money
Step into their most authentic self, so that they will never people please again, set clear boundaries and dictate their own path
Want to become a part of this transformational space? Let’s work together.
Select your portal to the next level of your life!
