be ROOTED
‘When you drop from your head into your heart,
life becomes clear & purposeful’
Finding your way to Personal leadership
Be Rooted is a school for compassion and meditation, for change from the inside out. We support organisations and young academic professionals to cultivate sustainable skills for personal well-being; integrating mind, heart, body and compassionate practices in support of living a fulfilling life.
Find Root to Rise: three Movements
To find root as an individual, team or organisation requires an understanding of where you came from, where you are and where you are going. To look at these three movements with the qualities of empathy and kindness will build resilience from the inside out, allowing you to give a compassionate response to life.
You will learn about living from a place of Heart, which is a the root of everything, and be a force for good in the world. This is what the world needs most; kindness, gentleness, empathy and compassion, the qualities of the heart.
To change from the Inside Out, start your focus and choice here and connect with me. I would love to hear more about who you are and your reasons to get in touch, this will help me better prepare when we connect.

Feel empowered & focused
When you feel empowered and focused, it is easier to make big life decisions. Are you looking to get clear and focused on the next steps? Do you want more harmony between the different parts of your life? Then you have come to the right place.
My clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed around making impactful decisions in their lives. People who are looking to feel clear and empowered about where to head next. My mentoring and coaching can help you work towards feeling calm and ready to move forward with more focus.
Become clear about your life
As a coach and mentor, I can support you to find your calm and get clear around your situation, I can help you get ‘unstuck’ and consciously choose the next direction of your life.
My approach is open and intuitive. We can work face-to-face at my office, or we can walk & talk. Because of the international nature of my work, my coach sessions are usually online. Depending on the time of year, we can meet face-to-face in either San Francisco or The Netherlands.
“Barbara gave the WBII a presentation on managing change which was both highly concise and professional, yet also warm and humorous with visuals and stories which conveyed her message perfectly. She left us with a new awareness and a desire to learnmore. I thoroughly recommend her.”
Julie Kennedy, Communication Specialist
“Barbara has this innate intuition that gives her this edge in coaching. She has her way of asking the right questions which generate all these answers within you that didn’t find their way out earlier. It’s been a pleasure working with Barbara, always leaving lighter and ready to take on new challenges”
