Nurture By Nature
Story of NN Coaching

For some time, a quiet sense of misalignment had been growing in me. I was progressing, working hard, doing what was expected — yet something didn’t feel right. A simple truth emerged: I felt stuck.
​
Questions followed:
Where do I want to go? What truly energizes me?
​
I knew that coaching brings me joy, and I had the certificates to match. Still, I kept climbing the safe, corporate path, even though a deeper part of me wanted coaching to become my core work. And then came the real challenge:
Where do I begin? How do I build something of my own? How do I step away from security?
​
One morning, the weight of these questions became too much. I stepped outside for a walk—no music, no podcast, just silence and the forest. It was time to listen to my inner voice.
​
In the quiet Eindhoven woods, with gentle rain, birdsong, and trees waking with me, something shifted. Watching the morning rush—people cycling to work, dropping off children, moving through routine—I realized how rarely we pause to question the purpose behind our daily rhythms. When I turned down the outside noise, clarity finally began to surface.
​
Step by step, ideas emerged. The grounding, nurturing energy of nature reminded me of the many times it had guided me when I felt stuck. And suddenly, my mission became clear:
to coach in nature, to walk beside those seeking direction, and to help them reconnect with themselves through the healing power of the natural world.
A companion. A guide. A listening ear.

This is how NN Coaching was born:
Nurture with Nature.
