About me

My name is Mareike and I am a follower of Jesus, a certified Christian Life Coach and a real nerd when it comes to neuroscience and emotional intelligence ! It is my passion to empower and equip you to walk in your God-given purpose, while taking good care of your body, soul and spirit.

HOW I BECAME A LIFE COACH

Born and raised in a Christian family, I turned to God early in life. Though I learned a lot about Him through the Bible, I didn't always hear Him clearly, and I always longed to know Him more and connect with Him on a deeper level.

 

Life wasn't always smooth sailing, and over time, a lot of other voices began to take up more and more space in my mind, spirit, and emotions. Throughout my teens and twenties, I suffered from rejection and shame, leading to self-hatred and even sometimes suicidal thoughts. I held on to my faith in God and experienced wonderful things with Him at times, but still... life was a struggle.

 

In my late twenties, my mental health plummeted and I experienced symptoms of anxiety, sleeplessness and depression. In my desperation, I looked for practical solutions. My doctor prescribed some medication, which helped me sleep and regain my strength. I also adopted various coping strategies, ranging from a healthy diet, gentle exercise, learning to say "no" when necessary, to intentionally doing things that brought me joy. This season taught me the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, taking care of my body and setting good boundaries. Slowly but surely, I started to get better and became deeply passionate about helping others live a healthy life.

 

In 2018, I officially became a certified life coach* and began coaching people on their path to wholeness. Although my clients were satisfied, I grew increasingly frustrated. The coaching techniques I applied were effective in helping people adjust their lifestyles, but they didn't fully address emotional blockages such as stress, procrastination and emotional overwhelm.

 

I realised that I needed to dig deeper into my own emotional health. Growing up, I had never learned how to deal with my emotions, and I needed help! One day, I was introduced to The Compassion Method™ by Laura Duncan. A new world opened up to me as I began connecting with my emotions instead of suppressing them, and speaking to myself with compassion and love. My relationship with myself completely shifted, and I experienced deep emotional healing. Over time, I dug deeper into the science behind emotional health and became increasingly interested in the intricate way our body, mind and emotions function together. To this day, I am very passionate about neuroscience and emotional intelligence, which I regularly weave into my coaching sessions.

 

In 2024, I experienced a yet deeper transformation, as God took me through a journey of inner healing and spiritual deliveranceAlthough I had grown up in church, I had not fully realised how much the spiritual realm can influence our physical, emotional and mental health, as well as our ability to walk in our God-given purpose. Through this process, I have gained a deeper awareness of the connection between body, mind, and spirit, along with a stronger spiritual discernment.

 

As I look back, I am amazed at how God has taken the many broken places in my life and made something beautiful out of them. Every stage of my journey has enriched me with specific understanding, wisdom and skills which I bring to my coaching sessions. It is now my privilege to coach people from various backgrounds to walk in the purposes God has for them, in a way that honours and takes care of their body, soul and spirit.

MY APPROACH TO COACHING

As a certified life coach, my role is to challenge, encourage and support my clients with kindness and no judgement. I put a lot of emphasis on listening actively to my clients and asking them thought-provoking questions to help them gain clarity on the issues they face. I don't tell people what to do; rather, I guide them in exploring different perspectives and options, empowering them to make informed and confident choices.

 

As a Christian life coach, I am also happy to incorporate a biblical perspective into our conversations, for those who desire it. We can also pray and listen to the Holy Spirit together, who is definitely the best counsellor we could possibly have!

 

Coaching is generally future-focused, aiming to empower clients to actively walk towards their goals and overcome obstacles along way. The past may come up, but mainly as a way to understand patterns and support future growth. Through my personal journey of inner healing and emotional growth, I’ve gained firsthand insight into how past experiences - including trauma - can shape our present thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. This understanding allows me to offer trauma-informed coaching, helping clients move forward with both awareness and compassion for themselves.

To conclude...

​  

I believe that God has really good plans for you, wherever you are at ! Sometimes we need help to figure out what the next steps could look like and how to get there. We need someone to be with us in the process to help us think, challenge our perspective, encourage us, clarify our goals and hold us accountable.
