About
Hi I’m Larissa!
My journey began on a farm in Bavaria, where I learned the values of hard work and resilience from a young age. My mother’s wisdom—“It’s not about how many times you fall, but how many times you get back up”—instilled in me a growth mindset that has shaped my life and career. Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of working with leaders from across the globe,
​
My professional career spans across 15 years in HR in Unilever, in 7 different countries, over 15 diverse teams, in 3 languages, multiple cultures and distinct business models.
I have discovered leadership is not just about what we accomplish, but how our leadership impacts those around us, the culture and the growth of the organisations we contribute to. In 2022 I was on the verge of losing my job, my performance was not showing, I lost my partner and in the end my health. This experience inspired me to go on a self-healing journey, explore inner child healing, learn methodologies like silva, manifestation and hypnotherapy. Looking inwards and working with powerful guides helped me transform within less than 24 months. It also inspired me to bring those learning to the corporate environment transforming leaders, cultures and organisations.
I believe that true leadership is more than just achieving success—it’s about feeling connected, both within yourself and with those around you. If you’re here, it’s because something inside you recognizes that alignment is key to creating lasting impact. I’m so glad you’ve taken this step.

OUR VALUES
Our core values guide everything we do.
Holistic Growth
We nurture every aspect of a leader’s life- body, mind, and spirit—we help you identify what limits you, work with you on the root causes, and foster sustainable growth.
Honest and Transparent
We don't tell you what you want to hear and we are not afraid of hierarchy. We challenge and stretch you where we see the need because we care for you. We get you outside your comfort zone because we want to see you grow.
Joint Investment
We are not a nice therapist where you go to complain and crip. We hold you accountable and invest as much as you. When we see you are not investing or you are not willing to grow we will transparently let you know. We don’t fix you! We guide you to grow yourself
Authenticity
We don't want to see an artificial or fake version of you. We help leaders to get to know themselves deeply, and accept and embrace their true human version. Every human being is unique and when you believe in yourself the magic happens.
Unique and Disruptive
We don’t recycle approaches we have used with other leaders because it saves time and money. We go deep into understanding what are your needs and develop unique and disruptive solutions that create an impact.
Empowerment
We give leaders and organizations the tools they need to smash limiting beliefs and approach their growth journey with an unbeatable growth mindset.
