What I Believe
I’ve come to understand that simple does not mean easy.
Life has taught me to let go of dwelling on the past—it cannot be changed.
I’ve also learned not to worry about the future, as it is not here yet.
Instead, I focus on living fully in the present moment, finding joy and balance in the
here and now.
My Passions
Gratitude, positivity, and balance are at the heart of everything I do.
These aren’t just words for me—they’re the foundation of how I’ve transformed my
life.
Whether it’s through sharing the benefits of Golden Drops, celebrating women’s
fashion with FigureEight, or helping others feel more connected to themselves, my
work is all about simplicity, presence, and joy.
I believe everyone deserves to feel their best, regardless of age or circumstance.

My Journey
At 59, I feel younger, more vibrant, and more aligned with myself than ever before.
Life has taken me on an incredible path—from growing up with the richness of two
cultures, German and Dutch, to embracing a freer, more intentional life in beautiful
Bali.
My upbringing was far from traditional.
When I was 10, my parents divorced—the only family in our village to do so at the
time. My mom went back to school and worked full-time, making me the only child at
school with a home situation like that.
These early experiences shaped my resilience, independence, and openness to life’s
complexities.
Later in life, I navigated my own transformative journey, including ending a 30-year
marriage and starting over with my teenage daughter at the other side of the planet.
These challenges taught me that new beginnings are always possible, no matter the
stage of life.
