What people say about working with me

“During our coaching sessions Marianne has been an amazingly attentive and emphatic listener, and a great sounding board for my thoughts. This has helped me to understand the underlying patterns of my thought processes better, and helped me move forward with a clear direction, making well informed decisions. I’ve learned how to independently solve some recurring patterns and find clarity in the process. Anyone feeling being stuck or going through major changes would greatly benefit from working with Marianne. I already miss our sessions, and Marianne’s way of gently but firmly guiding me forward in my process.”

— Kati Laakso, Executive Director, Finnish Cultural Institute

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Marianne on various occasions, she is exceptional at leading (in-person and virtual) workshops. Her ability to use online tools like Miro to create an engaging and interactive experience is truly impressive. What really stands out, though, is how she brings teams together—even when they have differing perspectives. Marianne has a gift for making sure everyone feels heard, all while keeping things productive, moving the group forward. She handles conflicts and tough conversations with ease, and her facilitation skills across global strategy sessions are top. I’d highly recommend her for any team looking to elevate their collaboration and strategic planning.”

“Working with Marianne was transformative. Moving to a new city within 10 months of having a baby, I felt lost about my career path. Through our sessions, Marianne helped me find clarity and reconnect to my inner self, breaking down overwhelming goals into manageable, weekly actions. With each step, I regained confidence and a sense of purpose. I finally feel grounded and excited about this new chapter.”
