Together with @remco_amsterdam of @charlesandmore I designed a nice package of cards as a give-away to the visitors of the opening event of @madartfoundation FOUNDATION at @glue.amsterdam amsterdam connected by design. 

Did you ever think about how material, smart design, interior design communication design or just a small card with one question can spark that one idea you were waiting for? Creativity is everywhere but designers can boost this creative well by creating the right environment. 

Right now I’m feeling very inspired while working on a new sustainable brand that’s has its roots in Suriname. This brand is all about the environment, roots, eduction and history. 🌿💚

More soon…

The Art Free Zone! 

During this @berlinartweek at @mahallaberlin @dadara_art and I give visitors a moment of bliss. This is a white space where you can leave all art impressions on the side. 

Here you will receive a moment of blank space. White noise and for the artists amongst us just some torture time! 

In this safe space we don’t talk about Art. So if you want some blank space during this @berlinartweek? We welcome you to @mahallaberlin and show you our new ART - FREE Catalogue. 

Still on show till coming Sunday @mahallaberlin 

But before you enter our space, first check out the beautiful art of @rocco_and_his_brothers, @lapaulari, the film Indarella from @ralfschmerberg, @shhhroooms @jonasburgertofficial @tokyo_qqq___ and many more. 

Show curated by @piellesshots & @annaborowy

De vakantie is weer voorbij en ik zit vol energie en inspiratie voor het nieuwe jaar! Tijdens deze vakantie heb ik veel nieuwe inzichten opgedaan over hoe belangrijk jouw roots zijn en hoe je hiermee jouw superpowers en jouw authentieke zelf kan her-ontdekken. 

Mijn superpowers heb ik op meerdere manieren en avonturen her-ontdekt en ik kan niet wachten om deze methodes te delen.

Bij deze alvast 1 tip! 
Blijf nieuwsgierig!! In spelen en nieuwsgierigheid zit avontuur en daar herken je jouw kracht. 

Om jouw hiermee te helpen heb ik besloten dat ik naast mijn gewone branding service voor bedrijven vanaf nu ook meer personal branding advies ga geven voor mensen met grote dromen die meer zichtbaar willen zijn als hun authentieke zelf. 

Want hoe meer we als onze authentieke zelf naar buiten komen hoe beter de klant jou leert kennen. Want jij bent immers jouw merk! 

—————

Dus bij deze stel ik mij weer even netjes voor. :-) 

1. Ik ben een dromer, een ontwerper een avonturier, een danser, en een performance artist. Ik spring graag in nieuwe avonturen en help mensen en bedrijven te groeien in hun dromen. 

2. Als strategisch grafisch ontwerper, Help ik start-ups en duurzame en sociale organisaties met het bouwen en ontwerpen van hun merk. Zie website bij info. 

——

3. Voor de personal branding services
organiseer ik evenementen waarbij ik de diepte in ga dmv innerwork. Teruggaan naar je roots is daarbij een belangrijk onderdeel. 

Dit is de start naar jouw authentieke jij wat we in een later stadium via een personal branding traject meer zichtbaar maken. 

————

Remember your Crown is mijn nieuwe aankomende event wat hierover gaat. 

Samen met @aubiergegamthety organiseer ik dit op zaterdag 26 september van 10:00 - 14:00 (Inloop is 9:30) bij Hatch - Amsterdam. 

Line-up event:
@sara_traint - founder, Free your mission

Remember your Crown

If you feel stuck in life and know you have more to give, then this event is for you.
On the 26th of September we organise Remember your Crown, at Hatch in Amsterdam. 

This event is for women over 40 who have lost themselves while navigating the many roles they play. Women are masters at balancing careers, families, relationships, and countless responsibilities, but over time, this can come at a cost.

At some point, you may realise that you’ve lost touch with your authentic self while building a career, raising a family, and caring for others.

During this event, we’ll help you reconnect with who you truly are. You’ll rediscover your unique strengths, reconnect with your superpower, and explore your authentic self, inside and out.

This experience is about connecting with your heart and purpose, while embracing self-love, confidence, and self-respect.

If you’re ready to reconnect with your inner-queen, I warmly invite you to join us for an inspiring event featuring:

• @sara_traint - TEDx speaker coach 
• @secondlevelqueen . Menopause empowerment speaker
• @celine.dewy - holistic rebalancing and soundjourney
• @dial_an_eclectic_stylecoach - Eclectic stylist
• Iris Kauffman - Personal brand developer

Find more info and your tickets here: 
www.remember-your-crown.com

Our sponsor Hatch is a human development studio. 
They create and facilitate experiential interventions in digital and physical spaces to effectively help organisations and people navigate the opportunities and obstacles of the accelerated digital/AI revolution 
https://www.linkedin.com/school/joinhatch/

Together, we’ll provide you with the insights, roadmap, and practical tools you need to reconnect with your purpose and become the queen you already are.
I hope to see you on 26 September at Hatch in Amsterdam.

Remember Your Crown

“Be yourself.” Easy to say, but what does it really mean?

- Do you truly know who you are?
- Do you recognize the many roles you play?
- Are your past experiences, or your parents’ pasts, still shaping your life?
- Do you live by your own values or someone else’s?

If you feel stuck and are searching for your authentic self, join us on September 26th for "Remember Your Crown," a live experience for women in (peri‑)menopause who are ready to reclaim their life. 

Who this is for 
Women 40–60+ who feel there’s more to give, who are internationally minded and educated, and who are done being told their time is over. This is not an event about symptoms; it’s about remembering who you truly are. 
 
Why? 
Technology is going fast & many women over 40 are not used to promoting themselves. Even though they do amazing things and have loads of experience. Visibility helps you find your tribe, amplify your voice, and create opportunities. For women navigating peri‑menopause or post‑menopause, this phase can feel like a whole new game. One that calls for renewed presence and clarity.

Together with @secondlevelqueen, the menopause expert, we’ll create an unforgettable, transformative experience. Together with @celine.dewy (sound healer), @sara_traint (talk on purpose and mission), and @dial_an_eclectic_stylecoach (styling specialist), while I bring expertise in personal branding and finding your authentic you. 

What you’ll experience
- Powerful workshops to reconnect with your authentic self
- Short, inspiring talks from women who chose passion and purpose over safety
- Bodywork and movement practices to re‑embody strength and feminine energy
- A ceremonial sound journey and visionary quest to open clarity and align with your deepest values

What you’ll leave with
- A clearer sense of who you are beyond roles and expectations
- Momentum to make decisions you’ve been postponing
- The confidence of a queen
- A practical roadmap for a more fulfilled life
- A supportive community of ambitious women who see you and have your back

So get your Early bird tickets and get ready for change. See link in Bio.

Yes!! We found a venue for our new adventure! 

After years of working with inspiring entrepreneurs developing brands and stories, I noticed people and companies aren’t that different. So, next to my service of helping sustainable and social companies, I now also start helping individuals by using my branding skills to reconnect with their core values, to remember who they are, and to step back into their authentic selves. Because we all have that superpower in us, we just have to unlock it! 

I especially love working with women from 40+ who are considering change in their lives.
Does this sound like you? If so, I’d love to invite you to our intro event, Remember Your Crown. 👑 

--------------------------------

On Saturday, September 26th, @secondlevelqueen (Aubierge Ball-Gamthety) and I are hosting Remember Your Crown, a 4-hour experience for women who are in the middle of peri-menopause and menopause, and know that life has more to give than it gives right now.

It’s not about symptoms. It’s about identity. About remembering who you truly are, and finding your peace again.

Food, drinks, and real connection included. Limited to 40 women.

If this speaks to you, or to a woman you know, share this and come to our event on September 26. We are thrilled to welcome and inspire you. ❤️

The event will be in Amsterdam at the headquarters of Hatch at the Sumatrakade 739, Amsterdam

Hatch is our partner in this and supports this big time. 🙏

Can't wait to see you there.

Collaboration Makes Ideas Stronger

This post is about collabs. @sheninlebrun, founder of @sisterhoodbyhustleandheart, is one of my favorite clients and a huge inspiration. This month, she asked me to design event gadgets and a magazine for her summit, with just three weeks to deliver. Challenge accepted, and we did it!

So here you can see the magazine, and I’m super proud of it. It’s filled with interviews of women who’ve truly earned their stripes. 

I’m also honored to be featured in the magazine alongside my client and collab partner Debbie Tejares from @in_living_colors_ . Interviewing her made me realise we share one mission: helping people connect with their authentic selves. So we decided to work together on this passion. 

For years, I’ve built brands by asking the same core questions: Who are you? Why do you do this? How do you want to see the world? What is your story? Those questions matter for companies and for individuals alike.

Driven by these questions and my branding experience, I’m launching a personal-branding venture together with like-minded women to help people show up as their authentic selves. This idea grew from many collaborations, a true win‑win. 

End of September, I will organise an event with @secondlevelqueen and @celestial_roots_collective about this topic, so stay tuned. 

Thank you, Debbie Tejares, Shenin Lebrun, @celine.dewy and Aubierge Ball-Gamthety for joining me on this new adventure.

Today is International Women’s Day
An important day for women everywhere. In Europe we are free and have the possibility to study and make careers. Unfortunately it’s not everywhere on the globe. Not long ago women in Europe had to fight for their rights to be free and I’m happy and grateful they did. ❤️🙏 
I wish that in the near future women will be safe and free all over the globe and get the chance to have the same opportunity. We still have a long way to go. But if we raise all together we can bring magic into the world. And I witnessed this power myself. ✨

I was raised with rules that kept me small: be pretty, be sweet, be quiet, and don’t take up too much space. Add the Dutch saying “je kop niet boven het maaiveld uitsteken”, don’t stick your head above the crowd, and it’s easy to stay invisible.

After meeting many powerful women here and abroad, things started to shift. And after joining the Sisterhood Business Club of @sisterhoodbyhustleandheart founded by @sheninlebrun , my mindset completely changed. Here I learned to stand my ground, take up space, and collaborate with smart, like-minded women. Now I love to jump into big adventures knowing they have my back. Women working together create magic, and the world needs some magic. 

So, to every woman who thinks she’s not good enough: You are good enough! Believe in yourself, ask your female friends to back you when you take bold steps, and join sisterhood networks — things will shift.

The full magazine will follow soon. ❤️

Happy International Women’s Day!

CREATING EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL

Education is the cornerstone of social mobility, yet the employability skills gap continues to widen, leaving many talented individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds behind.
 
M|V Consulting, a London-based agency, is specialised in bridging this gap by developing and scaling initiatives that support young talent from all backgrounds. Their mission is to create real, tangible opportunities that empower the next generation.

When she asked me to design their brand, I felt very honoured and said yes right away! Her website and brand have been launched for a while, and I’m very proud showing you the result. The design is totally based on equality.

For this corporate identity, I used two coloured bars that can only be used in pairs and are always divisible by two, making equality visible. The colour palette is chosen wisely to keep it serene, with one bright colour to provide highlights.

The photography concept is based on movement. In a world where time passes quickly, we sometimes forget to stand still and see what really matters. If you pause in an ever‑changing culture, you can spot the hidden gems that are waiting to be picked up.

If you want to know more about brand design, leave a message in the comments or send an email. I will be there to answer all your questions.

What I was doing in 2025! 

Last year was like a whirlwind filled with new adventures and great memories. 

Someone asked me what I wanted to leave behind in 2025 and what I learned last year and wanted to bring with me to 2026.

So what I’m leaving behind is the doubt of being good enough and listening to people who say you can’t. 

I always had that doubt but thanks to my love @dadara_art I started diving headfirst into the things I like doing. And by doing this I discovered I can do a lot more than I thought and I love it!

So what I bring to 2026 is to keep on jumping into the unknown, standing strong for the people in need and create beautiful projects for our planet and society. 🌿💚

There are many more projects I wanted to show you but this video was getting way too long so stay tuned to see the rest of my projects and adventures. 🔥🔥

Thank you everyone who helped me last year! Without you all it wouldn’t have been possible. ❤️
