I teach sensitive people how to access the wisdom in their sensitivity.
I used to fight my sensitivity and try to “toughen up” a lot. As a result, I ended up exhausted and burned out in my old job as a liberal arts teacher at Maastricht University.
Yet as I slowly learned to listen to and honour my sensitivity, I discovered how I was being guided to a better, bolder and more creative way of life. A life much more suited to who I really am.
I kept track of my discoveries along the way and since I have a background in teaching, I started teaching other Highly Sensitive People – and especially empaths – what I’d discovered. This is how my work TheHappySensitive.com came to be.
As I was teaching others my happy sensitive tools, I started to see that many of my clients were self-employed or aching to be self-employed.They struggled with many of the issues and questions I’d struggled with when I got started doing my coaching work.
People started to ask me more and more about the “biz” side of what I was doing.
- How do you work one-on-one with clients, without getting overwhelmed?
- How do you deal with “being visible” online ?
- How do you market yourself without feeling icky or stressed out?
- How do you structure what you offer?
- How do you stay true to yourself and make money?
Sensitive people have such amazing wonderful things to share. Yet, in order to do so, we need an approach, a system, a bunch of tools, that support us in our sensitivity (instead of denying or belittling it).
Ultimately, for us sensitive people, being self-employed means freedom and kindness. Freedom to be ourselves. Kindness to design our biz and life in a way that truly supports us and allows us to shine.
I want that for you, and I believe the world will be a happier place for it.

Before working with Caroline I was struggling with providing for my family. Although I love my work as a creativity coach and artist, it used to leave me exhausted and I had to rest for long periods of time, especially after workshops and meetings. This affected my income and my willingness to take on new clients and market my services.
Now I can work intensively for eight hours in creativity coaching workshops and come home to be a present mother to my children. I can suddenly understand how it is possible to work with people for the whole work week. While I still need my alone time, now I can use it for my art instead of resting in complete exhaustion.
