Tineke Mulder

I am a professional and certified executive and career coach, Reiki Master and Mindfulness teacher.

My drive is to support people who want to take time to reflect, to get clarity on their ideals and direction. People who are often driven and idealistic in terms of their goals, yet sometimes are feeling stuck or overwhelmed, dealing with choices, dilemmas, options, too much on their plate. Who wonder if they are on the right track and career path. Who are thinking about their next assignment. Sometimes having relocated and starting from scratch again in a new place.

Those times of change and transition are often stressful. And sometimes the balance is simply off between what you’re asked to do and what you feel capable of doing. You feel uncertain, overwhelmed, under pressure and stressed. I have been in that situation myself. And while it may not always be possible to change your circumstances in the short or long term, together we can at least develop ways to increase your resilience in handling them. A holistic approach to stress relief and more clarity, allowing you to make better choices.

Before I founded Bright Now, my professional career used to be in the field of international relations and HR, predominantly with the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, over the years, climbing the career ladder and working in management positions, I gradually realized that coaching people in their professional and personal development, had become more fulfilling to me than the contents of international relations. And once that was clear, I had the courage to jump and launch Bright Now.
