Growth Journeys

for you or for your team

Personal Coaching

Focuses on your life questions, challenges or desires. Together we work on the changes you want to make. Understanding why things are the way they are in your life is often the starting point. From discovering your current life-strategies, we can start to adjust where needed. After an initial conversation I will create a plan that serves as an outline for working together. When this aligns with what you want we schedule the first few sessions and start the journey.

Coaching in Rwanda

Rwanda is an inspiring place. The achievements and developments of the past 28 years hang in the air as a vibe of dignity, hope and possibility. On top of that, Rwanda is safe, clean, and incredibly scenic. Come for (at least) a week to Rwanda to reflect and renew with me as a coach on your side. Take a break from your busy daily life back home. Distance helps with reflection. Together we will create a tailored program with the right balance for you with free time, activities, and courageous powerful coaching.

Personal Journey Program

Stand Tall's Personal Journey Program is a power packed 6 Module Program that takes you on a journey of clarity and courage. Developed in collaboration with the Nomadic School of Business, this program draws on ancient wisdom with regards to personal strength, navigating a changing world and knowing yourself. I offer a safe place for collaboration and honest exploration through connecting on a truly human level where there is no judgment or expectation. Start to feel what it is to be truly yourself.

Leadership Journey Program

Nomadic and indigenous tribes are a source of inspiration and wisdom when it comes to the ability to thrive in harsh environments, to adapt and migrate when needed and with a powerful ability to build a strong sense of belonging among the people around their fire. Nomadic School of Business in collaboration with Stand Tall Courageous Coaching takes your team on a journey that breaks through barriers and creates a new sense of purpose and relevance. If this makes you curious, do get in touch!

How does it work?

For all programs or inquiries, I'd like us to briefly meet online or through a phone conversation. This way we can find out together which program or approach would best work for you. Personal Coaching is always tailored, although with 6-8 sessions, we generally can make a big step forward.

My toolbox

My coaching education started with the method of Co-Active Coaching, which has been called the "gold standard of coaching" by the Institute of Coaching. After a few years I added the powerful toolbox of Neuro Linguistic Programming, which is the study of excellent communication with yourself and others. My certification in Inner Dynamics is extremely powerful when it comes to understanding and influencing how our inner parts relate to one another. The techniques help to deal with inner conflict, calm down and end self-sabotage. Occasionally I also use the technique of Trauma Tapping Technique to help people immediately release stress or anxiety.

Community

Over the past 7 years I've been grateful and lucky to have been embraced by new communities. Part of my inspiration comes from learning from people who live differently than how I grew up. Collecting gems from over the world when it comes to how success or wealth is defined. Are you curious too and open to meet community leaders? Work with a nomadic mentor for fresh perspectives on your challenges? StandTall can build this into your growth journey. Because I love to do things differently.

For all inquiries:
  • Occasionally we can get removed from ourselves...

    “Sometimes, exactly what you need comes your way. As if by some sort of coincidence I had the opportunity to go on a personal adventure under the skilful and inspiring guidance of Doutzen. In a small group I went on my own personal adventure. It felt exciting and vulnerable because this was really about myself. Closer to myself than ever before. Doutzen invites you to discover your own path, and gives you the tools to do this. With targeted questions, clear insights and reflections and inspiring visualizations, you get to the core of what it is all about for you. Not directed in a direction, but aimed at finding your direction. The territory map makes connections and parallels with life with earth / nature as it is, as indigenous tribes do, and the western world. In which everything seems malleable in such a way that we occasionally get removed from ourselves. Through metaphors such as swamps, mountains, spears and feathers, you will gain clarity on your current position, your goal, your course, your path, how you travel, the work you may still have to do, and perhaps more. For me, the program itself is not my adventure. My adventure has just started by preparing and starting my journey through this program. To be continued. Very grateful that I was able to follow this program. An absolute must for everyone.” Ilse - The Netherlands

  • At a crossroads looking for change...

    "I emigrated during Corona time, where the job I had moved for suddenly was canceled. Now what? During my participation in the Personal Journey Program with Doutzen, I learned to see this vulnerable moment as an opportunity. To think about a new destination and how to get there. Without fear, from a place of peace. I have now started as an entrepreneur with a lot of self confidence. The guidance of Doutzen in clarifying my mission has helped enormously in this. I strongly recommend this program for those who are at a crossroads looking for change. You will receive all the tools to take big steps towards the (working) life that you actually dream of. Doutzen is a coach who listens carefully and gets the best out of you. Within a short time she managed to transform the participants who did not know each other into a group of confidants, in which we dared to be vulnerable and all went through tremendous growth. Thank you very much Doutzen!" Hieke Voorberg, Casalunya

  • Free to do what is important to you...

    "Visualize your goal clearly and with courage, so that you are free to do what is important to you." If you want to get more clarity about your goal in your work or private life, join Doutzen. She listens, asks the right questions and visualizes, until each individual can create his / her own Territory Map. In a number of sessions I answered the four big questions via Territory Mapping: Where am I now? What are my weapons? How do I get there? Where do I want to be? A must for anyone who is open to a different way of professional coaching; a combination of African wisdom blended with the knowledge of the "Father of Territory Mapping" Anthony Willoughby.

  • Insight into your own Map of Life...

    With her Personal Journey Program, Doutzen knows how to give you insight into your own "map of life". What are your challenges, your mountains, what are the swamps you get stuck in. Who are around the campfire with you, who are your travel companions? Which spears do you use to achieve your goal? This self-drawn map with its metaphors gives you an unerring image of the roads you travel. And it gives you insight into which adjustments you want to make to achieve your life goal. During this tour you have the perfect guide in Doutzen. Someone who lets you discover your own way through her pleasant guidance. A guide who is not in front, but behind you (and lets you experience your own power). Peter La Roi, Director of BrainSense
