ME at my best

journey of self-discovery

Gain insight into your unique qualities and discover which values are important to you. Once you discover when you are at your best: you feel your inner strength, your energy flows and you experience a sense of fulfillment. The 'ME at my best' program provides you insight. Think of it as your compass: you stay on track even when the environment is challenging and changes. You give direction to the life you want to live.

Remember, traveling our life path we constantly discover new layers of life. Like a painted object, our life is composed of several layers. Each beautiful new layer shows up in a different color, texture, is special and necessary. Even those we do not yet understand or that bring up challenges for us and in our life.

Now...relax and just breath: every single new layer will fit perfectly! The program we offer, is evidence and practice based and is described as providing insight, distinctive and sparkling. The coaching (plus mindfulnes, breathing and yoga*) techniques enable you to discover your new layers.

Nieuwlaagje

I am Elsbeth Ophoff. After 20 years of fulfilling various (management) positions in the corporate world, I started my company Nieuwlaagje in 2009. From the start of my company I have combined my coaching & facilitation with working as a house painter. My company name Nieuwlaagje (Newlayer) was born while painting.

More than 10.000 hours on personal development, executive/business and team coaching guarantee my experience.

The companies that I work for, they do realize that their employees make the difference in these challenging, uncertain and complex times. In addition, my coachees, their employees, show the growing longing for meaning in business and life.

I translated this into a powerful program 'ME at my best'. Nieuwlaagje takes employees on a journey of self-discovery. It becomes clear how you can make a difference if you connect to your inner strength, your inner calling, your personal purpose. Having meaningful impact, at work and at home.

"I am inspiring you to dig for your worms and help you to land your fish." (My personal purpose)

New jump forward

In the summer of 2009 I met this grasshopper in Portugal during a yoga holiday. A small and fragile creature, but look what a strong appearance!

When I got home, I discovered that the grasshopper symbolizes a new jump forward. At that time I made the jump from 'corporate career' to 'entrepreneurship'. The grasshopper became an important symbol for me. At unexpected and important moments I often encounter a grasshopper on my path: on my wall, my balcony or in my car.

It is important to make the right jump at the right time. If you know what you stand for, you will of course jump!
