Hi, I am
Nat van Zee
This is my story
In 2012 I faced my dark night of the soul after someone judged my personality. It made me feel depressed, misunderstood and not valued. I was frustrated with my career, and unhappy with life. I felt stuck and did not know what to do. I blamed my industry, the economy and breaking my back (literally).
I tried to escape my gloom by moving to the other side of the world. Yet I failed to break away from my emotions, limiting beliefs, fears and habits. It dawned on me that I had to change or go under.
This triggered my personal growth journey. I invested in coaching, therapy, mindset mentors, energy and holistic health programs. I became aware I was a highly sensitive empath and people pleaser. Step by step I changed my thinking, doing and being.
I learned to balance my emotions and energy. To let go of trying to fix people or control a situation. To choose my response rather than react. I reduced my drinking and started going to sober dance events. This changed my social circle from hedonistic to more conscious. I changed my diet and lifestyle to natural and organic. For a decade I educated about the negative impact of toxins on health and wellbeing.
Gradually I noticed that avoiding toxins does not equal good health. I became aware of the impact of stress, thoughts and repressed emotions on wellbeing. Qualifying in facial acupuncture and reiki deepened my understanding of the body-mind-spirit connection.
This awareness and my spiritual awakening prompted me to train as a hypnotherapist and coach. It felt like a natural evolution. I listened to clients telling me their stories and problems for twenty years. I wanted to help them feel better, happier, more confident and at peace with themselves.
Empowering people has been my mission all my life. It motivated my study in politics, my career in fashion, mentoring in academia, public speaking and as a holistic therapist.
I gained valuable life skills as I followed my heart and conquered my fears. I realised that I had to fall apart. This pushed me to be a creator instead of a victim.
Are you ready to change too?
