I Empower Passionate Female Leaders Reclaim Their Aspirations.💎Create new habits in 21 days and transform their lives in 90 days💎 Advisor to CEOs, Executives and entrepreneurs. DM me to learn more!

What if your breakthrough didn’t come from doing more… but from finally saying no?

Most high-achievers I meet are burning out behind a smile.

They’re brilliant at giving, excellent at leading—but somewhere along the way, they started saying yes to everything… and no to themselves.

If that feels familiar, you’re not alone, and you’re not broken.

Hi, I’m Helene.

Over the last 30 years, I’ve worn many hats—corporate leader, personal trainer, interior design consultant, yoga teacher, and now, visionary coach and consultant.

But my biggest transformation came when I stopped performing for the world… and started choosing peace.

That shift didn’t happen in a boardroom.

✨ It happened by my son’s hospital bed as he fought cancer.
✨ It happened in quiet moments when perfectionism cracked.
✨ It happened when I chose to feel instead of fix.


Today, I help high-achieving leaders:

✔Set boundaries without guilt – Learn the Power of No to protect your time, energy, and truth

✔Break free from perfectionism – Take bold, imperfect action toward what matters.

✔Create space for yourself – Shift from doing it all to doing what aligns with you.


🔶How We Can Work Together:

- 1:1 Executive Coaching – For bold leaders ready to change from the inside out

- Signature Program: The Power of No – Without the Guilt – A step-by-step framework to help you say “no” with confidence while staying aligned with your values and goals.

- Workshops & Team Consulting – Transform how your team works, leads, and relates.

- Speaking & Training – Engaging sessions on boundaries, burnout, and empowered leadership



A New Chapter: Luxury Meets Purpose

I also consult on select projects representing premium Italian interior design houses across the Nordic region.
It’s more than interiors—it’s about curating spaces that honour transitions, restore beauty, and reflect what matters.


A Few Things My Clients Say:

“Working with Helene gave me permission to choose myself again.”
“I went from burnout to boundaries, and it changed how I lead.”
“I stopped apologising for taking up space.”


If you’re ready to stop overfunctioning and start living on your terms, I’m here to walk beside you.

Most people don’t burn out because they’re busy.

They burn out because they can’t say no.

When we don’t say no, we don’t avoid the cost —
we just postpone it.

Dr Gabor Maté said it best:
“When you don’t know how to say no, the body will say it for you.”

And it does.

Because every time we say yes when we mean no, the debt lands somewhere:
• Tension
• Exhaustion
• Resentment
• Burnout

The body keeps the score
when the mouth can’t.

Saying no isn’t rejection.
It’s protection —
of your health, your time, your energy, your truth.

This is how high-achievers move from:
self-abandonment → self-alignment.

MINI-FRAMEWORK — SAY NO WITHOUT GUILT
1 | Notice
 Where you are over-committing or over-functioning.

2 | Name
 Your limit/truth:
 “Here’s what I can do”, → not “I must do everything.”

3 | Navigate
 Communicate calmly + cleanly.
 No apology. No over-explaining.

→ Save this — you’ll need it.

WHY THIS MATTERS

No is how you grow.
It’s how you reclaim your peace + direction.

This is the heart of
The Power of No — Without Guilt
→ my program for high-achieving givers who are done carrying everything for everyone.

Was there a moment when saying no changed everything for you?

P.S. If you’re ready to stop abandoning yourself, follow along. 
I share weekly tools to help you set boundaries without guilt.

Life Is Happening For You

Sometimes life sends us moments we do not expect.
A transition.
A pause.
A quiet invitation to listen.

What if these moments are not obstacles
but guidance
helping us return to what is true

In this conversation
Katarina Hanssens Carlsson and I explore how life changes when we meet it with curiosity rather than resistance.

We talk about
• The shift that happens when we see life as happening for us
• How to take responsibility without blame
• How to stay close to what is true for you every day

Join us for an honest and grounded conversation that brings clarity and inner ease.

We begin by listening inward
one choice at a time.

Approval is temporary. Alignment lasts.

The strongest leaders I know are not driven by praise.
They are guided by purpose.

After years of leading teams and coaching executives, I’ve seen how easily success can turn into performance when we chase validation instead of truth.

When you lead for approval, you start editing yourself to fit expectations.
When you lead from alignment, you expand into who you truly are.

One drains your energy.
The other renews it.

Approval feeds the ego.
Alignment fuels the soul.

Awareness. Choice. Alignment.
1. Awareness of where you are performing instead of leading.
2. Choice to return to what feels authentic.
3. Alignment that anchors calm confidence.

Leadership is not about being liked.
It is about being transparent and consistent with what you stand for.

No is how you grow.

Where in your leadership are you ready to choose alignment over approval?

A reflection on leadership that prioritises alignment over approval. 
Awareness, choice, and alignment create calm confidence and authentic leadership. 
A black-and-white portrait of Helene Rennervik looking thoughtfully toward natural light, conveying self-trust and quiet strength.


Pause before you say yes.

Choose intention over people-pleasing.

Most of us don’t struggle because we don’t know what we want.

We struggle because we respond too quickly…
to keep the peace
to avoid guilt
to manage someone else’s emotions.

Reaction feels protective.
But it quietly pulls us out of alignment.

Start noticing what happens in the pause.

Check in with your body before you speak.
 
Let your truth arrive before your words.

When you respond from intention, you protect your energy, your clarity, your values.

That’s inner alignment, and leadership begins there.

Pause. Align. Respond.

If this speaks to you, read my latest newsletter.
It’s a gentle guide to noticing when fear drives your choices…
and how to return to self-trust.

No is how you grow.

The Art of Inner Alignment We’ve all had moments where we speak, decide, or agree only to realise later that it wasn’t what we truly wanted. Maybe we

Doing less made me more effective.

Because growth isn’t about adding more, it’s about choosing better.
Your pace means nothing if it’s powered by depletion.

I learned this the hard way, in the moments when saying yes felt productive but left me quietly drained.

We often equate effort with worth.
But the truth is, exhaustion isn’t a strategy. 
Alignment is.

When you pause long enough to choose what truly matters, you stop moving from pressure and start moving from purpose.

Here’s the reset I shared last week, simple but powerful:
Pause. Prioritise. Protect.

Pause before saying yes.
Prioritise what truly moves you forward.
Protect your energy with boundaries that honour both.

Efficiency doesn’t come from doing everything; it comes from doing what aligns.

No is how you grow.

Where could less effort and more alignment create better results for you this week?

Represents calm focus, grounded leadership, and intentional simplicity.
Doing less to achieve more, creating space for what truly matters.

The quiet things you ignore often end up driving your entire life.

I didn’t realise this until one small moment forced me to stop and look.

In my years leading teams and coaching high achievers, I’ve learned that the loudest pressures rarely create the biggest misalignment.

There was a season when I said yes to everything that looked useful. 
Every meeting. 
Every opportunity. 
Every request that “might lead somewhere.”

One day, I opened my calendar and felt it immediately:

A tightening in my chest. 
Every slot was filled, yet none of it felt like me.

That was the first time I admitted the truth:
I wasn’t busy because I was growing. 
I was busy because I was afraid to pause.

Since then, I’ve learned to ask myself one grounding question:

“Is this choice driven by clarity or by fear?”

The answers changed everything. 
Less noise. 
More direction. 
Fewer performative yeses. 
More intentional moves.

Your life becomes clearer the moment you stop chasing momentum and start choosing meaning.

No is how you grow.

What’s quietly driving your decisions this week, clarity or fear?

This post reflects on how unnoticed pressures can quietly shape your decisions until you pause long enough to see what’s truly driving you. It explores recognising misalignment, asking whether a choice comes from clarity or fear, and choosing intentional direction instead of performative yeses. The image shows a hand resting on the keyboard of a rose-gold laptop, with a full digital calendar filled with overlapping coloured blocks, capturing the moment of confronting an overwhelming schedule and realising something needs to shift. 

If your to-do list never ends, your growth has nowhere to land.

Overcommitment doesn’t make you stronger — it scatters your energy.
You can’t expand when you’re stretched too thin.

After decades of leading teams and coaching high achievers, I’ve seen how saying yes too often quietly limits success.

Busyness feels productive, but it often masks avoidance.
We fill our schedules to avoid slowing down long enough to notice what’s misaligned.

For years, I equated momentum with meaning.
If I wasn’t doing more, I thought I was standing still.
But the truth is that constant doing left no room for clarity or peace.

Growth happens in the space you create when you stop overcommitting and start choosing with intention.

Every yes carries a cost — time, energy, or presence.
Choose your yeses as carefully as your values.

No is how you grow.

What’s one “yes” you’re ready to retire?

Sometimes the biggest shift

doesn’t come from trying harder…
but from letting go.

In a recent session, a client shared frustration about someone in his life who wasn’t changing, even though he cared deeply and wanted the best for them.

I asked him one question:
“Are you willing to let that go?”

Not the relationship…
but the responsibility for their choices.

He sat with it.
He said yes.
And he genuinely released the expectation.

Today, he came back and told me:
That person, without pressure, advice, or pushing, started making positive shifts on their own.

He said,
“When I let go, I think it gave them space to choose for themselves.”

That’s the quiet power of allowance.

When we stop managing other people’s growth,
we create room for them to rise.

Here’s the 3-step shift he made:

Notice when you’re holding responsibility for someone else’s life
Release the need to fix, change, or influence
Allow them to choose — without attachment

This doesn’t mean indifference.
It means respecting their sovereignty.

Letting go isn’t giving up.
It’s giving people back their power.

Reflection
Where in your life are you carrying something that isn’t yours to hold?

If you’re ready to start releasing what was never yours to carry and take back your energy, I’d love to support you inside The Power of No – Without Guilt.

P.S. Sometimes the shift you’re waiting for in others…
begins with the one you choose within.

What’s Driving Your Purpose?

Purpose isn’t found by pushing harder.
It’s found by listening deeper.

And sometimes, it takes the right conversation to uncover what’s truly guiding you.

Here are the three questions Katarina and I will explore together:

1. What influences your choices more — your truth or your expectations?

2. How do you recognise when a goal is aligned and not driven by fear?

3. What changes when your purpose nourishes you instead of proving you?

A live conversation for leaders, high-achievers, and givers ready to reconnect with what truly matters.

No is how you grow.

Helene Rennervik, Ahmed El Hamamsy and 24 other attendees

I always say that alignment is where clarity begins.

And when leaders teach from alignment, you feel it.

Jasmin Alić ’s sessions have shaped so much of how I approach communication on LinkedIn with purpose and intention.

If you want to learn, grow, or reconnect with your own driving purpose… this is one to mark in your calendar.

See you there.

No is how you grow.

Trained 56,289 people how to use LinkedIn for business

I haven't done a LinkedIn Live since last year.

So let's make this one ONE to remember!

1. Ask me anything you want
2. Drop questions live in the chat
3. Celebrate my Link Up anniversary!
4. Watch me drop an exciting announcement

I REALLY miss doing lives! So...

I'll stay with you for 2 hours (at least) because I want to make sure this is the best live event of the year.

(maybe I'll even bring guests 👀)

I don't do these often. So mark your calendar ASAP.

3 things you can do immediately:

1. Repost this so your network sees it ♻️
2. Invite others to the event (up to 1k invites)
3. Leave a comment with a question for me to answer

See you on Nov 25!

One question can change how you lead yourself this week.

Most people never think to ask it.

It’s a question I give to every high achiever who tells me they feel stretched 
or unfocused.

Before you commit to anything, pause and ask:

“Will this expand me or deplete me?”

It’s direct.
It’s fast.
And it exposes the real cost of your yes.

Recently, I was invited to a meeting that looked important.
But when I asked the question, the answer was obvious.
It would drain more than it would contribute.

So I said no — clearly and respectfully.
And the time I protected helped me finish something that actually moved me forward.

High achievers forget this:
Your calendar is data.
It reflects whether you’re leading from values or from pressure.

When your yes comes from expansion instead of depletion, 
everything improves.

- Your focus.
- Your presence.
- Your performance.

Clarity begins with one honest check-in.

No is how you grow.

What’s one thing this week that doesn’t deserve your yes?

A fresh lens to understand why you choose the way you do.

Most choices feel automatic until you learn how to see what is shaping them.

After years of working with high achievers, I have seen how easy it is to confuse movement with alignment.

We often say yes because it feels easier than pausing.
We move forward because opportunities appear, not because they are aligned.
Fear quietly influences our decisions long before we notice it.

Purpose feels different.
 It slows you.
 It clears the noise.
 It returns you to yourself.

This is why I created the Purpose Compass.
It helps you check three things before you move: Truth, Impact, and Alignment.
When you ask these questions, you begin to see what is actually guiding your choices.

Your decisions become lighter when you understand the forces behind them.
When fear no longer sets the pace, your purpose finally has room to guide you.
 
No is how you grow.

Which part of the Purpose Compass feels most helpful for you right now?

Some shifts in life arrive quietly. A slow sense that something isn’t quite matching who you are becoming. For me, it wasn’t a dramatic moment. It was

Open article: With the Purpose Compass Framework by Helene Rennervik • 2 min read

Most high achievers don’t burn out from workload.

They burn out from carrying what was never theirs to hold.

We feel responsible for:
• Everyone’s emotions
• Fixing what isn’t ours
• Keeping the peace
• Holding it “all together”

And it works…
until it doesn’t.

Because carrying everything quietly eventually becomes a weight you can’t name — only feel.

Here’s a simple reframe:
Letting go isn’t giving up.
It’s giving people back their power.

MINI-FRAMEWORK — ALLOW • LET GO • COMMUNICATE
A | Allow
Let others have their feelings + choices without managing them.
L | Let Go
Release what isn’t yours — their reactions, their story, their timeline.
C | Communicate
Share what is yours: your limits, your truth, your needs.
(Quietly, clearly, kindly.)

This is how you stay connected without self-abandonment.
It’s uncomfortable at first…
but freedom usually is.

Where do you feel this most right now — at work or in your personal life?

P.S. If you’re done carrying everything and want to learn how to set boundaries without guilt, I share weekly tools + reflections here.
