Inspiring Talks on Joy of Life, Time Freedom & Aligned Leadership

With a Master’s in Business Engineering, 8 years of corporate leadership, and over 20 years of entrepreneurial experience, I bring both structure and soul to the women I support. Having built 4 thriving businesses alongside my husband—while raising two teenage sons—I intimately understand the real-life challenges of balancing ambition with family, purpose, and self-care.

That’s why I created my signature Joy of Life Method—a high-level, yet deeply human approach to sustainable success. It blends smart business strategy with a “work smarter, not harder” mindset, while making self-care and inner mastery non-negotiables for lasting growth.

My mission is simple:
I help create:

More Clarity
More Focus
More Energy

Paving the way for:

More Success
More Joy
And more time to do what you love

Because true success isn’t just about what you achieve—it’s about how it feels along the way. And I’m here to help businesswomen build lives and careers that feel as successful as they look.

Whether we’re talking about aligned leadership, sustainable success, energy management, work-life balance, or working smarter to create the freedom to do what you love—I bring clarity, warmth, and practical insights that move people to action.

Unlock 20 Years, 4 Businesses, 1 Dream in Provence

Podcast: “Zuidwaarts” ALEGRIA, with Koen | In Dutch

What happens when you truly follow your heart?

In this special episode, my husband Dieter and I share our 20-year journey of building a joyful life and 4 thriving businesses in Provence each rooted in one core value: Alegria, the Joy of Life.

We talk about:

- Taking bold leaps to follow a dream.

- Turning challenges into growth.

- Creating success through passion, resilience & purpose.

From hospitality to coaching, this story is about designing a life with intention, and proving that joy can lead the way in both business and life.

The Joy of Life as a Path to Fulfilment and Success

Podcast: “The mind body podcast” ALEGRIA, with Maria Angelova | In English

We explored deep and meaningful truths, including:

- Why joy isn’t a luxury, it’s fuel. When you embody it, you radiate clarity, magnetism, and inner strength.

- The difference between energy we push and energy we embody and how intuition becomes louder when we slow down and listen.

- Why ambition is unstoppable when it’s rooted in joy, not pressure.

- How personal happiness and professional success aren’t opposites -> they amplify each other.

- How meditation, journaling, and intentional mindset shifts aren’t “extras”-> they’re leadership tools.

- And my favorite takeaway: "Whatever you desire is possible, but only aligned action turns desire into reality."

How can shifting from hustle to harmony completely transform your success and well-being?

Podcast: “The Kore Women Podcast” - ALEGRIA, with DR. Summer Watson | In English

In our conversation, we explored themes that are at the heart of Alegria Coaching and my signature Joy of Life Method, including:

- Why “Alegria” (Spanish for Joy) is the word that defines my life and why I believe success without joy is just burnout in disguise.

- The power of leading ourselves first and how inner alignment is the key to sustainable outer success.

- My turning point from hustle to harmony, and how I turned breakdown into breakthrough.

- How I help high-achieving women reclaim their time, energy, and freedom, without sacrificing success.

- And the most powerful mindset shift for women stuck in hustle culture:

"Slowing down isn’t weakness, it’s wisdom. That’s where clarity and power begin."
