The limits of my language
mean the limits of my world
– Ludwig Wittgenstein
Exploring, expanding and redrawing the limits of my language and of other people’s has been a life-long journey for myself both personally and professionally.
Language is at the heart of our personal experience and the tool and force that shapes our world.
To shape a people-friendly world through positive communication and self-talk has become the driving force of my professional and personal work.
With a background in linguistics, computer science and positive psychologie, neuro-linguistic programming and systemic coaching and personal interests in philosophy, natural sciences and politics I empower organizations, companies, teams and individuals in finding, communicating and realizing their potential and vision through counselling, consulting, training, coaching and mentoring, public speaking and writing based on sound scientific evidence, and core philosophical and spiritual role-models and teachings.
As a voice for universal well-being, justice, equity, self-determination and development I advocate the protection of our planet, health and growth for people and a sustainable prosperity which promotes global physical, psychological, social, political and spiritual health, development and growth for all of humanity and life on the planet in line with the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals and the mandates of stewardship for life and nature and universal acceptance and compassion as promoted by humanity’s major spiritual traditions.
Born and raised in Karlsruhe I am currently living single in Schongau, Bavaria, Germany, after raising three now grown-up children with my ex-wife in the regions.
Whenever possible, you will find me in the cathedral of nature; by, in or on the water – lake, river or sea, swimming, diving or on the back of a SUP board, by foot in the woods or the mountains.
Among my joys and inspirations are books, movies, dancing, good food and deep talks.
I try to approach life with a deep sense of imperfection, the consciousness of forgiveness and the freedom of new beginnings, and the continued practice of radical gratefulness.
