By helping his clients cultivate a heightened awareness of their physical presence, emotions, intuition and thoughts, Philippe empowers them to lead with authenticity & impact.
Our holistic approach:
Our approach is rooted in the belief that true growth and transformation occur when we embrace the interconnected nature of our being. In our work, we utilize embodiment techniques such as conscious connected breathing and movement to connect with our inner leader.

Our promise is: we will make the space accessible to you. This is part of what being inclusive means. Your personal coaching session can happen in the language of your choice: English or German.
