ABOUT

ABOUT

I am  Annette Beerens

An experiential coach, horticultural therapist, and supervisor. For more than thirty years, I have guided individuals, teams, and organizations in their development. My strength lies in connecting nature with lived experience and mirroring.

Nature has been my greatest teacher. In a profound time of illness, I learned what it means to let go with trust. To rest in the emptiness — and stay present through every emotion, even despair and the vast not-knowing. The trees whispered, “Sit with it.” And I did.

What I now call “the great letting go” changed me forever. In dialogue with the natural world — both outside and within — I discovered a fertile ground that holds all life. From this place flows my deep commitment: to live truthfully, with unshakable respect for life.

My mission is simple: to share the Earth’s message — “You are welcome with all that you are.” When you believe it, something shifts. Tension releases. Energy flows — into your own life and into the world around you.

The Earth is balanced: giving and receiving, protecting and renewing, breathing in and out. Growth and decay, life and death — all in motion, all connected.

What drives me is making people’s natural potential visible. Whether it’s employees returning to work, students finding their place in the world, or organizations striving for more sustainable practices – I help uncover talents and growth opportunities, and support people in putting them into action.
