He wanted to talk to me about his use of English (and not about my organic vegan green smoothie […]

It’s all about the nipples (yes, I said nipples)

It’s all about the nipples (Yes, I said nipples)  Hello, sweetie, how is this happy Monday treating you? I hope your week is off to great start! But you don’t want my friendly introduction, do you? You want to cut to the chase and get to the ‘nipples’ part. This, my friend, I understand. As you may […]

Going That Extra Mile (but not really)

Oh, sweet darling, how are you? I hope this finds you well. I need to share a little story with you today. There’s someone I see on a regular basis. He helps me understand my business better.

I jumped and you caught me. Thank you.

Happy Easter Monday!  Maybe I should start calling it Eater instead of Easter. Because my body is truly about 68% chocolate at this point. But still. It’s lovely living in a country where you get an ENTIRE EXTRA DAY to eat chocolate. And if you live somewhere where Easter is celebrated only on Sunday, I can guarantee you […]

“It’s so nice to meet you. And I’m so scared.” This is how I was greeted last Monday at the opening of my “Comfortabel Presenteren” masterclass. These words came out of the gorgeously lipsticked mouth of a very attractive, super-sharp professional woman. I asked her right away (after telling her it was lovely to meet […]
