Self-Discovery Coaching Munich
Be YOU.
Rediscover yourself.
There are times when you feel less in touch with yourself than you did before. The answers to simple questions—What do I want? What matters to me? What do I stand for?—no longer come as clearly as they did a few years ago. Sometimes there’s a specific trigger behind it; sometimes it’s a quiet, gradual process.
What remains is this feeling: “That’s not really who I am.” And the question that lies beneath it:
Who am I, really—beyond what I do?
Three occasions when the question “Who am I?” becomes particularly pressing.
In a new (leadership) role. You’ve been promoted or have switched jobs—and you realize that your old ways of doing things no longer fit, but the new ones don’t quite feel like you yet. You lead, make decisions, and represent the company—and you notice that something about this role hasn’t quite clicked for you yet. Or that you haven’t quite found your place in the role.
In a career that no longer feels like who you are. What inspired you ten years ago feels strange today. You keep going, but you lack energy in the morning. You haven’t asked yourself the question “What truly gives me joy?” in a long time—and now it’s hard to answer.
In a phase of life where you’re finding yourself anew—or for the first time. Some changes shift your inner reference system because what used to define you is gone. Other phases aren’t breaks, but beginnings where it’s still unclear what truly belongs to you. Both are moments when your image of yourself is given a chance to take new shape.
You want to find out if coaching is the right thing for you?
During a free 30-minute discovery call, we’ll get to know each other with no obligation. You’ll describe your situation, and I’ll give you an initial idea of whether and how I can support you.
What happens in systemic coaching.
You can’t simply talk yourself into a new self-image. In my coaching sessions in Munich or online, it becomes clear again when you approach it from three angles – perspectives that are already present in every person but tend to slip beneath the surface as we get on with our lives.
Values. What is truly important to you—beyond what your environment expects? Values are the basis for your decisions. When they are ignored, your life feels like a good suit in the wrong size: technically correct, but not yours.
Strengths. Where does your natural energy lie—the energy you don’t have to mobilize because it’s already there? These strengths are often so taken for granted that you don’t notice them. In coaching, we bring them back into your awareness—as indicators of what suits you.
Beliefs. What subconscious images of yourself and the world do you still hold onto that no longer fit? Some self-images date back to a time when they were useful—but now they hold you back. We take a look at them without discarding them, and adapt them to your current life.
From these three aspects—values, strengths, and beliefs—a clear self-image emerges once again. One that lasts. So that your life can flow along its own lines again.
Three common scenarios for the be-YOU question
Depending on where the issue is most pressing for you, we’ll tailor the coaching accordingly. These are the three most common topics—and they’re frequently combined.
Leading with Authenticity
If you haven’t quite found your leadership style yet.
You’ve grown into a leadership role—whether on your own initiative or through a promotion—and realized that the leadership style you’ve picked up doesn’t quite suit you. Perhaps you’re leading using a command-and-control approach because that’s what you’re used to. Perhaps you’re overly adapting to the system’s expectations. Perhaps you’re acting on autopilot instead of finding your own leadership style.
Through coaching, you’ll discover how you truly want to lead – with a style that fits you as a person and your environment.
Career reorientation
When your job no longer feels like you.
You’re getting by at work, but the passion is gone. Maybe your responsibilities have changed, or perhaps your work environment—or even you yourself. You’re no longer sure what motivates you in the morning. And it’s hard to answer the question of what kind of work truly fulfills who you are.
Through coaching, we’ll clarify what truly inspires you—and in which environment, with which tasks, and within which culture you’ll feel professionally alive again.
A New Chapter in Life
When your self-image no longer fits or isn’t clear yet.
Who am I when the framework that once gave me structure is gone? This question comes up at the beginning of adulthood just as much as it does in midlife. Sometimes you realize that the perceptions others have of you aren’t your own. Other times, you feel that what once supported you no longer does. As different as these two situations may seem, at their core, they’re both about coming into contact with yourself.
In coaching, we bring to the surface who you are today—with your values, strengths, and aspirations. So that you can truly define your new self-image for yourself.
The result: “This is how I see myself.”
By the end of a coaching session, you will not have been given a new self-image. Instead, you will have a clearer picture of your own self—the one that has been there all along. You will know what matters to you, what gives you energy, which old beliefs you can let go of—and you will know how to put it into practice.
In concrete terms, this means: You make decisions based on your own inner voice, rather than on others’ expectations. You can once again feel whether something is right for you or not. You lead, work, and live—as your true self. And you realize: Change doesn’t have to be dramatic. Sometimes it’s enough to recognize yourself again—and the rest follows almost on its own.
First answers you can find on your own. Even before you start coaching, you can use two free Self-Assessments to get closer to your personal answers: The Career Anchors Self-Assessment shows you what motivates you professionally—security, autonomy, meaning, recognition, or others. A first roadmap for the question “What suits me?”.
The Inner Drivers self-assessment reveals which unconscious “be statements”—be perfect, be strong, be pleasing—still influence your behavior today. Often, these very drivers are the reason why your own life feels as if it’s being controlled by someone else.
Neither test is a substitute for coaching—but they’re a good first reflection.
