Purposeful Growth Coaching in Berlin
Everyone is different. That means that the picture of success and the journey to get there is different for everyone. Our Being and Doing are interrelated. This idea is core to Purposeful Growth Coaching.
Through personalized coaching sessions, I will help you clarify your picture of success, identify the limiting beliefs that are holding you back, and help you overcome them to achieve success in line with your purpose.
Experiences of clients

Leonie coached me purely because I was interested in coaching, with little preparation or previous thought about coaching at all; I merely wanted to see how it could support my personal growth. Leonie skillfully challenges your lines of thought, habits, your acting and how you interact with others and vice versa. We have also looked at situations that I brought in everyday life that I wanted to reflect on. Leonie is able to quickly come up with exercises to change your perspective on situations, and is super compassionate. Very professional and kind person, 100% recommend! Thank you!
Toine, Procurement & Supply Chain Manager

Together with Leonie, I have made a lot of progress in a relatively short time with organizing and managing plans for my professional and personal future. Leonie has a pleasant, relaxed way of coaching that made it very easy for me to get started with her suggestions and instructions.
Frank, Building a Brewery

I would definitely recommend Leonie as a coach! I came to her to guide me in the early career stage I am in. She knows exactly how to ask the right questions at the right time in a very pleasant manner. She is very understanding, a great listener and has a fun personality. Coaching has given me the tools to reconnect with inner-strength and made me more self-consciousness. Thanks Leonie!
Hanna, Project Manager

Leonie has helped me tremendously with a number of personal learning goals. She made, and makes, me look in the mirror in a nice way in order to make discoveries about myself. Definitely recommended if you want to work on your personal development in a nice, friendly way! Thanks Leonie 🙂
Sebastiaan, Account Manager

Leonie helped me unravel the entangled ball that contained my – sometimes contradictory – longings, wishes and dreams in a tangled web. Not by laying out the path I should take, but by discovering the internal mechanisms that obstruct me and to strengthen the tools to support me in dealing with these ‘saboteurs’. She did so with empathy, playfulness and sharp questioning.
Annette, Curation, artistic ally, cultural projects

Leonie helped me grow during the start of a new challenge in my career. She is a good listener, flexible and focuses on the right topics at the right moment. She understands the work context very well and has experience with moving abroad. Leonie helped me to find my inner peace and to focus more on my talents. I recommend working with her if you need support in personal growth.
Stefanie, HR & Recruitment Manager

I am so pleased that I started coaching with Leonie during the COVID-19 lockdown when I launched my own non-profit. My regular routine was upended and I was searching for support as well as the release of some blocks that I felt were in the way of my personal and professional well-being. She is a fantastic, empathetic listener who hears what you say – and even what you don’t say – in order to help you see your own inner wisdom. Leonie has helped me to create more joy in my work and in my life.
Beth, Non-profit Founder and President

Leonie was recommended to me as a coach at a time when I was feeling stuck and I’m so glad I started working with her. Her approach and her personality immediately resonated with me and our sessions, even though they push me out my comfort zone, are always uplifting and empowering. Thanks to Leonie I discovered tools that help me connect with my inner strength and detect what stands in my way to a purposeful and fulfilled life. Highly recommended to anyone who wishes to get some support on their path!
Sofie, Project Manager

I am a big fan of my Coaching sessions with Leonie. I always leave the sessions far more structured, with new ideas, points of views and perspectives, more positivity and a bigger smile than before my sessions. Leonie is not only a wonderful person to talk to, she never runs out of ideas, is very professional yet compassionate, very well organized and clearly communicating, and makes me feel always welcome and inspired. I am very grateful being able to work with Leonie!
Birgit, Product Manager

My experience with Coaching by Leonie is wonderful. She creates a safe and strong space for exploring. She makes an effort in finding and surfacing what it (what are you talking about) is really about, and can sense the truth behind your words. She is a strong listener and points you to things that can be brand new on your path of discovering yourself.
In addition, her program to find your niche combines her two powers (coaching and consulting) in a synergy that has care, curiosity and fun in it. It is a thorough program, and Leonie has a way to make it easy, fun and worthwhile. I have found my own way of marketing and in stead of resistance feel comfort around this now. Highly recommand for all who seek coaching or want help with their marketing struggles.
Noor, Transformation Coach

Leonie is a great coach, and I would highly recommend working with her. She helped my in my process to figure out next steps in further developing my company and myself. Leonie is really committed to your growth and she challenges you to get out of that comfort zone.
Sanne, strategy consultant and sustainability & social justice specialist

Jasminka, Creative Producer and Fundraiser

Leonie is exactly the coach I was looking for. Our sessions are an anchor point in my life wherein a lot is happening at the moment, from a break-up to the start of a new company. Every session is valuable, and she brings me almost effortlessly back to my strength within. I am very grateful she came on my path and I can see the positive impact the sessions have in my life, even amidst the turmoil. Leonie is very dedicated, makes the spiritual practical and walks her talk.
Florentine, Art Historian and Feng Shui Interior Specialist

Starting my own business had me facing important decisions and dilemma’s. What can be more helpful than a professional business coach? Leonie fulfilled this role perfectly. She is sharp, empathic, non judgmental and encouraging. Exactly what I needed!
Noortje, expert in political policy and communication

Working with Leonie was wonderful. I started engaging with her services in the midst of the COVID-19 lockdown when I found myself in a deep crisis as I was going through some severe life changes. Although I had some vague ideas for my future, I lacked the clarity and conviction to actually set steps and follow through on them. Leonie’s natural sense of empathy and her skilful commitment to support me with whatever I needed at any moment helped me greatly with progressing with my life, and I now feel much more equipped to keep pursuing this direction. Highly recommended!

Purposeful Growth
I define “Purpose” as “Essence in Action”. It is about being and doing. Your being is the essence of you. It consists of the things you deeply believe in. All that you value most and what you want to take a stance for in life. Your doing, is all that can be observed about you. These are the roles you fulfil in a family or in a business. It’s the way you react to certain situations. The choices that you make – or not make.
Purposeful growth happens when being and doing team up. It is a continuous process of consciousness, awareness and movement. Growth is ongoing. Fulfilment is found in the flow of purposeful growth itself. It’s when this flow gets out of balance, when we feel stuck.
Purpose is Essence in Action
It's about being and doing

Read more about my wandering journey and how it lead me to coaching, in the chapter about me.
Go for it!
To all wanderers
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
– J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
