Quite a few people are familiar with a phenomenon called stress. Stress in itself isn’t necessarily a bad thing. As a matter of fact, a certain degree of stress is needed in order build oneself up for a specific occasion. One can think of major events in work environment, or an exam, for example to what extent though, differs per person. To define when it’s enough and act upon it subsequently, is easier said than done.

Something that is relatable for us all as professionals, and individually.
To Yvonne Looije of MaXXYou it is nothing new: quite a few professionals find themselves over time in situations they don’t want to be in. Either they’ve lost track of what initially drove them, or they’ve just been overtaken by reality. Whether it be challenging events in their professional lives, certain situations in their private lives or difficulties in balancing these two. But in essence it doesn’t really matter what exactly is the cause of experiencing stress. Fact is that it’s there, and with that we humans feel the desire to do something about it. It is often seen as meaningful to explore together with a coach which reasons lead to experiencing stressful times. To take a holistic approach in doing that makes sense.
