Inspiring Talks on Joy of Life, Time, Freedom & Aligned Leadership
Hi, I'm Cindy Van Eeckhout.
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 lived and fully 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.

Joy isn’t the result of success, it’s the foundation of it.
Podcast: “Hey, I’ve Got Something to Say!” Guest: Cindy Van Eeckhout. Host: Sandy Joy Weston | In English
Here’s the truth we explored:
Most high-achieving women are conditioned to believe: “I’ll finally feel joyful… once I reach that level of success.”
But in reality, it’s the other way around.
When you lead from joy
When you build your business and your day from joy
When joy becomes your baseline
…success follows, naturally, sustainably, and with soul.
In the episode, I shared 4 pillars from my “Joy of Life” Method that help ambitious women infuse joy into their daily life now, not someday:
Clarity: Get clear on what truly matters
Well-Being: Prioritize self-care as a power move
Work Smarter: Create time and freedom without burnout
Mindset: See joy as a muscle you can strengthen
Because joy isn’t accidental - It’s intentional - and it becomes your greatest fuel for lasting success

How can shifting from hustle to harmony completely transform your success and well-being?
Podcast: “The Kore Women Podcast” Guest: Cindy Van Eeckhout. Host: DR. Summer Watson | In English

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."
