I'm a business coach helping B2C executives achieve health and prosperity in their ventures. I’m also an investor with firsthand understanding of running successful businesses.

I'm an excellent choice for managers and leaders seeking a coach and advisor with extensive international business know-how. I bring 25 years of practical experience living and working in the US, Asia, and Europe.

I grew up in an entrepreneurial family in Denmark. I left home at 18 to work in the USA and help my family build what would become, with time, BoConcept, an international furniture retailer with more than 270 stores worldwide.

Between then and the age of 40, I worked across various locations in the USA and Asia, driving the growth of the store's network and building and managing international teams and relationships with company franchisees. I was in the middle of my INSEAD Executive MBA program when my family decided to sell the business. The sale led me to leave my job, rethink my professional and personal paths, and eventually reinvent myself. 

I look back at 20+ years as an ambitious professional, store manager, and later, a regional director and senior executive who often spent most of the work week in airplanes and hotel rooms, pushing himself and others to deliver growth. I enjoyed doing business and seeing the results of my work. In Asia, I led a network of more than 50 stores across ten countries, almost tripled company sales within five years after I took over the responsibility, and successfully managed turnarounds in Japan and China. I built the BoConcept retail network from scratch to comprise more than 20 stores in the US.

Despite enjoying my work in business, I was often stressed, and I did not always show the best side to my teams and partners. I spent the first years after we sold the company in search of fulfillment. I experienced burnout, which was a painful period. Still, I am grateful because it changed my thinking and way of living and interacting with others.

I learned to listen to the needs of my body. I dived into understanding my emotions and the emotions of others, and I got better at finding balance in life and within personal and business relationships. I have a lot to share regarding my experience as a business executive and as a human being searching for success in business and keeping a good balance in life.

Working with business leaders to achieve excellence in business while remaining balanced in life allows me to combine two passions—the world of business and feeling well in body and mind.
