Lead With Love Coaching
- Do you feel tired?
- Do you feel overwhelmed?
- Do you struggle with anxiety/worries/fears?
In everything I do, I believe in going one level deeper, seeing the patterns, the potential and the purpose that drive my clients to thrive.
My coaching isn’t about one-size-fits-all advice—it’s about holding up a mirror, calling you out on some of your blind spots while also being deeply empathetic and seeing your potential and intentions.
I combine extensive experience with fresh perspectives, helping founders and leaders cut through the noise, build thriving teams, and create businesses that don’t just make money but truly matter. If you’re looking for someone who gets your world and can challenge you to grow—without the corporate fluff—you’re in the right place.
Working with me,
you will
- Identify behaviors and interactions that are holding you back.
- Devise alternatives to the above that allow you to thrive.
- Learn to identify and deal with fears that are slowing you down.
- Acquire tools to get back into the expansive space of creativity, confidence and courage.
- Develop a deeper understanding of the culture at your company.
- Discover how to better align leadership, culture & brand.
- Implement concrete improvements to create more flow in the workplace
Why Choose Me?
There are thousands of coaches out there. Here’s why working with me is different:
- I understand your world. I’ve been part of startup ecosystems across multiple countries, mentored founders, coached leadership teams, and even ghostwritten business books. I know the startup hustle, the sleepless nights, and the thrill of building something from scratch.
- I don’t do generic. No cookie-cutter advice here. My coaching is tailored to your specific challenges—whether that’s dealing with the constant uncertainty, the overwhelm, the difficult conversations or other culture conundrums that arise in a business.
- I bring real-life experience. With 20+ years in the game, I’ve learned what works—and what doesn’t. I combine business strategy, psychology, and a deep understanding of human behavior to help you lead with clarity and confidence.
- I bridge the gap between vision and execution. Great ideas are everywhere, but turning them into reality is where most people struggle. I help you refine your thinking, clear out the mental clutter, and take strategic action—without overthinking everything.
If you want a coach who combines real-world experience with a no-BS approach—and can help you build a business that aligns with who you are—let’s talk.
I have a special place in my heart for social enterprises, purpose-driven businesses and changemakers, so that’s where most of my energy is invested. With a couple of decades of experience across various countries and cultures, I have learned a lot – and I’m not done yet.
Still learning, still growing.
I would be honored to accompany you on your entrepreneurial journey.
Testimonials
“For the last year I’ve worked with Carolin on a number of levels, and am very happy to recommend her. She initially developed a bespoke leadership and cultural awareness training for me, building on her previous experience in our wider sector.
I was impressed how she adjusted to my particular situation and responded effectively to short-term requests. Based on my experience we invited her to bid for the organization of an all-staff away-day with team building exercises.
Her offer was far superior to that of her competitors. During the day she managed to instill a sense of ownership among our staff, and a number of work groups have since begun to address specific areas of our activities. I very highly recommend her, and would always be happy to go back to her for further work if needed.”
Professor Thilo Rehren FSA, Director, UCL Qatar
“I hired Carolin as an executive coach to support my leadership team and help us better leverage our strengths. Working with Carolin has helped us align our work with our strengths, better divvying up responsibilities.
As a coach, Carolin can work from the context of her business background and her unique understanding of how we communicate, relate and interact as humans from her time as a therapist. She is a 10x performer when it comes to spotting inconsistencies and has the experiences to lead us to new insights.
I appreciate her presence, authenticity and willingness to challenge me in the sessions. I would recommend her for her down-to-earth, no-nonsense outcome oriented approach.”
George Boyar, Chief of Staff, Mentor Collective
