About me

I learn,
live, and teach

at the intersection of leadership and spirituality — in response to the challenges of our time.

When I stood at the gate of a Thai monastery in my early twenties, something began to move.
The weeks that followed, which I spent there, would change my life in lasting ways.
Though not in the way I had initially hoped.
My logical, goal-oriented mind had become stuck under the magnifying glass of meditation.
Just like a vehicle trapped in the sand.
That is exactly what I recognize today, twenty years later, in many of the people around me.
A vehicle stuck in the quicksand of change.
And what do many people do?

They start pressing the accelerator, sometimes relentlessly, only digging themselves deeper into the sand.
At some point, the vehicle, whether personal or collective, is buried so deeply that the doors can no longer be opened.
What is needed then is a shovel.
And someone willing to use it.
The value that emerges from this is nothing less than a track you can drive on again.
A path of personal emancipation and collective maturation in the tension between the old and the new.
Every time I have followed it, trust, clarity, and enthusiasm have grown.

This change in perspective defines my work and lies at the heart of my upcoming book.
It supports people exactly when their immediate environment no longer offers answers.
When pressure sets unavoidable processes in motion. Whether we are ready for them or not.
The courage, and also the humility, to express these things so clearly have matured only over years of exploration, experimentation, and failure.
It is a path on which I will likely always remain a learner.
Why not join me for part of the journey? It’s a path worth taking.
Especially in times when the ice begins to spread.
