Uprooted and feeling more at home than ever!

Even if not living in your birth country or as an international woman…

Do you feel lonely sometimes as an international woman, maybe a bit unsettled, without energy and searching for a (new) balance?

  • Instead of deeply enjoying your international life, you miss your close friends and actually,you still have limited real friends where you live
  • You might feel alone, maybe even stressed and anxious at times of settling in, moving, and not knowing for how long you’ll stay
  • You are tired of keeping all the plates spinning, never finishing everything that must get done. 
  • You feel emotionally exhausted, as if you are the viewer of the movie of your life instead of the main character.
  • You might struggle with the (new) language(s) and cultural habits. How do things work here? When will I finally get this language?

 

How would your life change if you could share and get the tools you need to feel fully relaxed and feel at ease no matter where you are?!

How much me-time do you really have?

How would your life change if you put yourself first?

Would you like that to change?

How much work do you really get done?

Change your life by no longer multitasking the pieces of your life together! 

So you get more done!

How often do you worry
about the future or mull over the past?

Can you imagine
a worry-free life?

How would that feel for you?

Imagine putting yourself first without feeling guilty….!

I combine the 1-1 coaching with an Essential living master group. So that you, as international women, can become more profoundly grounded in yourself. Because this is exactly what you need when you are living in, or with a different culture, having had to start from scratch, when you don’t speak the language and don’t know the customs, or you are finding them challenging to adapt to. When you don’t even know if you will stay somewhere for a long time or when you have an international life behind you, and you then return to your roots. You are not alone in this.

You, who have embraced big changes in order to live an exceptional and unique life, choosing to expand and celebrate new cultures and experiences. Yes, YOU!

So, are you going to travel with me and a group of like-minded women for 3 months?

No matter where you live, your current situation and no matter where you are at in your life? Would you like to take part and connect with women who are experiencing the same as you? You don’t want to miss out, do you? Have you already begun to understand how powerful this is?

I know what it is to live an international life and to make yourself familiar with another culture.

For almost 12 years now, I have been living in Bergamo, Italy with my Italian partner and two children aged 6 and almost 9.

I have experienced all the nuances of starting over. Ups and downs, sometimes falling down and getting up again.

My knowledge as a coach and trainer helped me a lot in this and that is exactly the reason why I love to coach you and give you just that little bit of extra power you need to live an international life as a woman and/or to live together with other cultural habits and backgrounds.

I get where you are at, AND I want you to know that it is possible to slow down, find more ease and peace in your international life, take better care of your health and still be productive, ambitious, and living the life you ACTUALLY dream of wherever you are. If I can do it, you can do it certainly too.

This shift doesn’t have to be a struggle and it also doesn’t mean sacrificing your family, career or other priorities.

It just requires that you matter more to yourself!

Jiska van der Kooij

Life Coach, Communications Trainer and Physical Therapist

They’ve already worked with me…

Jiska gave me the opportunity to really assess what is important to me, and how to manifest it. For me, this coaching has helped me learn more about myself and also helped me to want to care more about myself.  I would recommend Jiska as a life/wellness coach to anyone feeling like they need guidance or clarity in any aspect of life.
Jiska listened to my anxieties in a non-judgemental way.  She questioned my fears in a matter of fact way and this allowed me to explore where they stem from. I had always focused on the worry or fear itself but never its root cause. I also had some personal baggage that I had to address before I could begin this journey of wellness.
The exercises and techniques Jiska has taught me have helped me to metaphorically step back and assess situations from a place of non-judgement.

I didn’t wanted to invest in coaching but after talking with Jiska I felt that I had to let go of my objections. Jiska understood and recognized the moments when I got into hassle. Through her direct and correct words I felt that she connected with me at an emotional level.
I felt a warm strict approach that encouraged me to take action. It gave me confidence to go deeper inside myself. Jiska is a good listner, her feedback is strict but full of love. She confronted me with my words and ideas in an inspiring way and so afterwards I felt energized again.
She asked very good questions. At exactly the right points. That gave me a lot of confidence and security. Jiska is very good at what she does. She confronted and mirrored (regardless of judgment) and adjusted surgically, on a very high (or deep) level.
