I'm Lieve and I love stories. Stories make us meet ourselves (why I write books) and stories create our life's experience (why I love coaching).

I'm an experienced coach who coached navy seals, mothers, CEO's, artists, surgeons, writers, therapists and engineers. I'm a mother three beautiful human beings. I love to deeply live life, the ups and downs and in-betweens.

I am Canadian/Dutch, and lived in South Africa, Indonesia, Thailand and close-to-my-heart California (Oakland). Currently residing in Belgium, near the airport. I love planes as much as birds.
