Curious Minds Ask Discerning Questions

This section is curated for those who value clarity, intentionality, and depth. Whether you are seeking a meaningful pivot, a more aligned rhythm in your personal or professional life, or simply considering what refined support looks like, below you will find questions most often asked by my clients. Should your question not appear here, a private conversation awaits. ​​
1. Why do I need Life Coaching?​
The answer, it depends. If you're thriving in the areas of life that matter most to you, personally, professionally, emotionally, spiritually, financially; then perhaps not. But when your inner clarity is clouded by chaos, whether external pressures or internal dissonance; and life begins to unravel, it may be time to seek clinical support: a trusted psychologist, psychiatrist, or physician. There is no shame in getting the right help at the right time. Life Coaching, however, is not about fixing what's broken. It’s about consciously evolving. It’s for those who believe growth isn’t a finish line, but a refined, lifelong pursuit. If you’re ready to elevate from success to significance, from competent to exceptional; then yes, Life Coaching is the path forward. It’s a deliberate choice to live and lead with greater alignment, resilience, and impact.
​
2. What types of coaching do you offer?​
I offer three bespoke coaching paths:
-
1:1 Life Coaching (self-esteem, mindset, purpose, emotional resilience, etc.).
-
1:1 Executive & Expat Coaching (leadership, transition, cross-cultural fluency).
-
Team Coaching for SMEs (culture, diversity, adaptive leadership).
3. There are many Life Coaches. What makes you different?​
Simply put, I live what I coach, not in theory, but in practice. My approach is grounded in lived experience and guided by authenticity. I don’t teach from a script or speak in abstractions; I coach from a place of deep personal integration. What I ask of my clients, I ask of myself. What I guide others through, I’ve walked through…often more than once. Perfection is not the objective. Growth is. Resilience is. Self-mastery is. These are the qualities I continuously cultivate in my own life, and they form the foundation of my work with clients.
When I speak about Diversity and Inclusion, it’s not just knowledge or professional rhetoric; it’s a value I have lived and embodied for decades, in both personal and corporate settings. When I coach on the Expatriate experience, I speak from 25 years of living and leading across 7 countries, navigating complexity, change, and cross-cultural nuance. And when we explore the terrain of resilience and reinvention, know that I bring the wisdom of someone who has faced, overcome, and transformed challenges…again and again.
There’s more I could share; about who I am and why I do this work. But I’ll simply say this: I respect your time, your intellect, and your ambition. If you're here, you’re already seeking more. Not perfection, but purpose. Not quick fixes, but lasting transformation.
And that is precisely where our work begins.
4. What languages do you conduct your coaching?
I work primarily in English and Bahasa Indonesia. That said, I occasionally coach in Spanish as well.
5. Who typically works with you?
-
C-Suite executives, senior professionals, entrepreneurs, and high-performing individuals from a wide range of industries—tech, finance, diplomacy, creative sectors, and more. While many of my clients are based in Europe and Asia, nearly one-third are from North America. They value depth, discretion, and a sharp, culturally aware approach to personal and professional development.
-
Small & Medium Enterprises in Asia (particularly Southeast Asia), EU, and United Kingdom.
6. What does a typical session look like?​
Each 60-minute session follows a strategic roadmap tailored to your specific needs. We start with a focused check-in, work deeply on your current goal or challenge, and close with actionable steps. Every session builds on the one before it, creating momentum and continuity. That said, life is dynamic—there may be times when a session shifts to address a pressing or unrelated issue. The work is structured, but flexible enough to adapt to your reality. Each session can be conducted in person (one-to-one), WhatsApp, or Zoom.
7. Are sessions confidential?
Yes, they are, absolutely. Everything shared in our sessions is private and held in strict confidence. Trust and discretion are foundational to my work.
8. Do you work with couples or families in your Life Coaching?
No, I don't. My coaching is designed for individuals and corporate team members. However, life coaching topics such as relationships and communication are often explored in depth with individuals in a 1:1 setting.
​
9. Do you offer support for expats adjusting to life in Europe?
Absolutely. I specialise in executive and expat coaching; guiding senior-level expats through leadership transitions, cultural adaptation, and personal alignment in their new environment.

12. Can I combine coaching and business consulting?
Yes. Many of my clients find value in a hybrid approach—integrating life or leadership coaching with strategic business guidance, especially during major transitions or expansions.
13. Do you only work with clients in Europe?
Not at all. While many of my clients are based in, and/or moving from and into Europe, my clients are spread-out across the world.
