HERE IS WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Thank you so much for all your knowledge, presence and love you’ve shared with us at the seminar.
Honestly for me it was mind blowing how so much compassion, truth and deep work can be packed into only a couple of hours we spent with you. From the moment you welcomed me in, I felt your big heart. I know it may sound like a cliché but I must say it!
I was too scared and excited at the same time when I arrived to the room. So much so I couldn’t feel the full depth of your presence and nonjudgmental love. But as the day went on and I was able to more relax and allow myself just to be, the healing energy was soaking into my body. I felt so seen and safe in the circle of all the woman I had never seen. I surprised myself with speaking up when I’d have stayed quiet in the past. I believe it’s all because of your grounding and loving energy, because of soulful music Eimer shared with us and because of the huge power of sisterhood your seminar was so potent. Thank you again for this amazing experience

When I arrived I immediately felt a sense of calm and a warm welcome. Nadine resonates a kind, and protective energy, that helped me to feel safe and accepted just the way I am in this moment. In this safe and calm atmosphere, to my amazement I stayed with the Work despite being afraid because I felt held and supported emotionally. I cannot remember feeling so safe and accepted like this before and it helped me to process what came up with confidence and know I’d be ok. Nadine effortlessly managed each of our needs individually and as a group.
I came away clear of the method [The Work/Inquiry-based stress reduction] and motivated to bring it into my life as I experienced a deep sense of calm and knew it was a great tool to use for difficulties in my life. The live music from Eimear deepened and enhanced the experience. I would highly recommend this workshop.

"Being the change we want to see is at the heart of the SheDecides movement – we want to live in a world where every girl and woman everywhere decides about her body, her future, her life. We are a tiny team supporting a huge movement with an audacious goal. Nadine is an extraordinary, talented, emotionally intelligent, change-oriented facilitator who led us through a process that is helping us to be the best we can be – and to love what is about our ways of working together. We are very fortunate to have had her dedication, knowledge and energy at the start of our working life together. Thank you Nadine for teaching us about ourselves, each other, and how we can be the change we want to see", Robin Gorna, UK, SheDecides.com, 2017

I have been practicing 'The Work' for a couple of years now, mostly on my own. I was in a place of great confusion even just in the identification of the stressful thought and I knew I needed help. I chose to work with Nadine and was very happy about the facilitation and about the way she guided me in exploring hidden gems. Facilitation by such experienced people is a plus, however I would very much recommend Nadine as her ways, her joyful but solid presence, gifted me with more than I could hope for. She kindly found the precise soft spot and it was liberating. The wholeness, love, peace and clarity that I found very shortly are still with me and I am very much looking forward to our next sessions together. Giulia, Italy 2022
"I was, for many years, stuck in grievance and resistance. In doing "The Work", led by Nadine, I was instantly released into a place of Freedom and Peace and Joy--where I remain. I am most grateful",

"I have been aware of The Work of Byron Katie for a number of years now but it was only when I worked on my own personal challenges with Nadine that the power of The Work really struck me, Nadine is an expert facilitator of The Work and I have found my work with Nadine to be liberating, personally energizing and truly transformational. Working with Nadine has been extremely enjoyable, fun and inspirational",

In just a few sessions, I feel the burdens of the past lift and the freedom to live life fully come in to my being.

I can not recommend her enough, in just a few sessions I feel transformed,

"I found [one-on-one] sessions thought provoking and informative. Nadine is a wonderful facilitator who challenges thoughts expertly. Greater awareness around the harm of negative thoughts has been an eye-opener. Through the sessions, personal development skills are acquired effortlessly. Realise after "The Work" experience how important it is to manage our thoughts for the greater good of self and others and for peace in our lives:

I have been thinking a lot about leadership and power dynamics and how that relates to women and men. I still observe that many women, including myself in the past, have tried to fit within the patriarchal structure that considers power through control and domination. But you were leading the conversation by listening, by guiding and by showing you cared. That made you so powerful,

"Doing The Work with Nadine was and is always a gift. She is an excellent, warm and very experienced facilitator with whom it is impossible not feeling at ease with. She knows the art of listening en flows with you. She really lives and acts out: ‘loving what is’ and that’s the kind of facilitator you need as a client. She gave me back The Work. I made myself believe I had to tackle all the ‘big and important’ things in my life and put those in one worksheet. That’s not fun and not very helpful. The hours with Nadine made me understand the meaning of doing The Work, as work, as pleasure, without judgments, curious and aware, being in the moment and amazed of it’s power and my own power. She taught me there is more in the details you might think. We laughed a lot, it was easy, sometimes painful, it was fun to look at my own beliefs and thoughts, turn them around. I got so many insights from it. She taught me to live my ‘living turnarounds’. Nadine held me, stayed with me, went with me on our journey. She is flexible, witty, humble and has an incredible gift in asking questions that are right on the spot and perfectly timed. I felt completely safe with her and open to question my thoughts. Nothing was a problem. No judgment and that’s liberating. She taught me you can do The Work on any thought, question, belief while opening your heart. And that is easy with her. She gives the perfect example. Nadine lives The Work, she is authentic, honest, clear, sharp and one of the most gorgeous and loving people I know! Thank you Nadine! Forever grateful",

"Love and compassion, love and compassion are the words that came out of me to describe Nadine as a Facilitator of The Work. Soft gentle eyes, an open personality, big heart, no judgment and genuine. Nadine has so much love to share, and I can feel it in her presence. She loves doing The Work and loves facilitating the Work. I feel very comfortable, I trust her, I feel secured. I could feel her genuine will to help others to experience The Work, I could just feel her compassion towards me and that is so beautiful and so real. In the session, she gives space, she travels with me, as if the onion is being peeled layer-by-layer to get to the core, to what feels true to me - to get to my truth. It's been a mind-blowing experience doing the Work with Nadine. I feel truly honoured and lucky to have her as a Facilitator.
Thank you, Nadine", Frika Salrein, Indonesia, 2018
