How coaching helps High Achievers

With a fellow High Achiever as your holistisch coach, you will 1) learn what drives you to achieve, 2) develop self-compassion, 3) reconnect with your feelings, and 4) process your emotional difficulties. Over time, through practice and experience, you can expect to feel more relaxed and joyful, and develop a better sense of what you want in life.

Meet the coach: Joost Bats, PhD

As a High Achiever myself, I have worked together with many talented experts across the globe, both in the industry and academia. Through practicing mindfulness, I have become aware of the suffering that underlies the climbing of corporate and academic ladders. With more than a decade of mindfulness training, my experiences have led me to pursue what I most long for: to help fellow High Achievers through life coaching.

Holistisch coach

When we feel empty or stuck, what we most long for is to feel better again. But we may have little idea how to get there. The result is that we feel lost and confused. At such times, a guide is invaluable.

If you know where to go, "wanting to feel better" leads to wonderful life transitions. As a holistisch coach, it is my goal to guide you in this transition. While standing by your side, I provide the tools that are necessary for you to deal with your inner life experience as a High Achiever.

You are not alone

We tend to identify ourselves as abnormal when we are stuck, which causes feelings of loneliness. But the opposite is true. You are not alone. Pain and difficulty are intrinsic to the life of a High Achiever. In today's society, the pursuit of success reflects emotional distress that is shared by many. Recognizing that you are not alone opens the gates to connection and freedom.
