The Embodied Journey
A year-long journey back to the fullness of who you are — coming home to yourself
Twelve monthly 1:1 sessions with online self-practices in between, across four seasons — one homecoming.
There is a part of you that knows
You feel things differently than others. More deeply, more fully — and sometimes that has felt like a burden rather than a gift. You carry a quiet longing that is hard to name. A sense that there is more in you than you have been able to reach.
You long to feel truly at home in yourself. Not just comfortable — home. In your body. In your values. In the full depth of who you are as a woman.
Perhaps your soul has been knocking on the doors of your heart for a while now. Perhaps you feel the weight of patterns that no longer belong to you — in your lineage, your relationships, your nervous system. Perhaps you have a voice inside you that is ready to come out, and a life that is ready to expand.
You are not broken. You are not too much. You are a woman who is ready to come home.
Imagine this
You wake up and there is a stillness in you. Not emptiness — fullness. A deep anchor that doesn’t depend on anyone or anything outside of you.
You move through your relationships from a place of true belonging — to yourself first, and from there to others. You know your body as home. You trust your own voice. You feel your radiance not as something you perform, but as something you simply are.
You are playful. Present. Free.
The cycles that were handed down to you — you have broken them, with love. The pleasure, the creativity, the aliveness that was always in you — it has found its way into your everyday life. Not as a peak experience, but as a way of being.
This is not a fantasy. This is what becomes possible when a woman truly comes home to herself.
A Year of Returning
This is not a curriculum. It is not a course you complete. It is a journey you inhabit — with your whole body, your whole history, your whole self. This journey travels through four seasons. Each one carries you deeper into your body. Into what you know, what you have hidden, what you have always been.
WINTER · Arriving Still. Dark. Turned inward. No performing. No producing. Just arriving.
“Welcome, dear one. You are here now. Not to figure anything out — but to begin the most tender homecoming of your life.”
She arrives.
Something in her already knows.
She meets the first love she ever knew — and what it left behind.
She turns toward the masculine — and what it taught her about her worth.
SPRING · Descending The ground is softening. Things buried begin moving upward.
“Shame lives in the dark and dies in the light. The parts you decided were too much, too broken — they are not your worst self. They are your most human self.”
She finds the one who learned to be small — and invites her home.
She meets what she learned to hide — and discovers it was never the monster she feared.
She asks, perhaps for the first time: what do I actually desire?
SUMMER · Awakening Full light. Things blooming that were buried.
“Worthiness is not something you earn. You were worthy the moment you arrived in this world — and nothing that has happened since has changed that truth.”
She begins to believe — really believe — that she is enough.
She stops running from her feelings — and discovers they were never the enemy.
She comes home to her body as a place of wisdom, pleasure, and sacred knowing.
AUTUMN · Harvest Integration. Carrying it all back into real life.
“You have travelled far. You are still here. More yourself than ever. The work has not been to fix you. It has been to help you remember what you always were.”
She discovers she was never broken — only temporarily separated from herself.
She brings herself — fully herself — into connection with others.
She arrives home.
Into the Depth
This work goes where most coaching doesn’t dare to go.
Into the body. Into the places that have been silent for too long. Into the root of who you are as a woman — your life force, your pleasure, your power, your voice.
True embodiment cannot bypass the sexual. Not because this work is about sex — but because your sexual essence is where your life force lives. It is the part of you that has been most conditioned, most suppressed, most disconnected from. And it is the part of you that, when reclaimed, changes everything.
In our sessions together we follow what your body is communicating. Not a fixed protocol — a living, breathing, deeply personal journey. We go where you are ready to go. We meet what is ready to be met.
Your desires, your needs, your boundaries are always leading.
What this year holds for you..
One year. One deep, uninterrupted journey back to yourself.
Twelve monthly 1:1 sessions of 75 to 90 minutes — held with full presence, shaped entirely around you. Between sessions, a personal practice structure keeps you connected to your process: body practices, reflections, and integration exercises designed to meet you exactly where you are.
Each session will take you into the body — to work with what is held there, to unlock what is ready to be released, and to reclaim what is yours. We will talk, but we will aim to talk from the body rather than about it. This work is trauma-informed, which means we move at the pace of your nervous system — never pushing, always holding.
Sessions take place via Zoom, or in person near Leiden. All sessions are scheduled at the start of our trajectory for the full year ahead, with the flexibility to complete the journey within 18 months if needed.
Founding investment: €300 per month for everyone starting in 2026 (€3,600 for the full year — paid monthly. )
I am opening this program to 2 new people per month.
When you say yes, we begin with a coaching agreement that outlines our commitment to each other — and then we start.
If something in you is already saying yes — that matters. The first step is a free 30-minute Discovery Call.
“I did the 1:1 Embodiment Coaching over 10 sessions. I have learned a lot about myself thanks to Martine. She helped me listen to my own sensations, uncover conditioning by my family and society, and work on feelings of acceptance and safety. Martine creates a welcoming and warm space and tailors the program to your needs. I can totally recommend.”
A.R.
“Martine guides you with gentleness and compassion, and clearly has deep experience and expertise. Her sessions have contributed meaningfully to my healing process. I recommend her wholeheartedly.”
Floortje V.
“I completed a 10-session 1:1 coaching journey with Martine, focused on self-love, relationship, and connection. From the start it felt safe and grounded — she gives real space to whatever comes up. The sessions gave me valuable insight into where certain blockages come from, and a deeper connection with myself and my body — which has also deepened the communication and connection with my partner.”
Amy V.

Why work with me. Why now.
I did not come to this work through a curriculum.
I came through my own unraveling. Through the moment I realized I had been living a life shaped by everything I had been told to be — and almost none of it was truly mine.
The system we grow up in is powerful. It tells us who we are, what we should want, how much space we are allowed to take. And most of us, without knowing it, have built our entire lives inside those invisible walls.
I know what it takes to dismantle them. Not by force — but by going so deep into your own body, your own knowing, your own essence, that the indoctrination simply loses its grip.
That is the liberation I walked. And it is the liberation I guide you toward.
I became a coach because I know what it means to find your way back to yourself. Not the self that was constructed — the self that was always there, waiting underneath it all.
You will be safe with me. You will be seen. And you will be met — exactly where you are.
This is your invitation.
If something in you has been saying yes while reading this — that is worth listening to.
Not the voice that calculates and doubts. The other one. The quieter one. The one that has been knocking on the door of your heart for a while now.
I would love to meet you in a free discovery call. No pressure. No performance. Just a real conversation between two women — to feel whether this is your time, and whether we are the right fit for this journey together.

FAQ
The Embodied Journey is a one-year individual trajectory — a deep, supported journey back to yourself. You can start at any point in the year; the journey unfolds from the moment you begin, not according to a fixed calendar.
It combines monthly live coaching sessions with access to an online platform filled with somatic practices, reflections and guidance you can return to at your own pace. The program is inspired by the rhythm of the seasons, which gives it a natural depth and flow — but your personal journey always starts where you are.
We plan your sessions at the start of the trajectory, one per month, for the full year. For each session, I invite you to take the whole day for yourself — to arrive fully, to integrate what arises, and to let the work land deeply. The more space you give yourself on that day, the more powerful the session will be.
Life happens — and if something arises, like illness or an unexpected life event, you can postpone sessions with a maximum of six months.
The investment is €300 per month, billed monthly. This is not a quick fix. It is a year of coming home — layer by layer, session by session.
Deep Embodiment is the practice of coming home to your body — learning to live from your felt sense rather than your mind. Through somatic work, breathwork and body-based practices, you reconnect with what is true inside of you. It’s not a technique. It’s a homecoming.
If you feel there is more alive in you than what you are currently expressing — if you sense patterns repeating, or feel disconnected from yourself — this work is for you. Most people who find me are ready, even if they can’t fully name it yet.
This trajectory aims on deepening the relationship you have with yourself, your body and your sexuality first in order to express your feelings of intimacy and turn on in an authentic way with others. This trajectory will support deepening and strengthening your love and friendship relationship as you become more at ease with yourself, feeling more safe within yourself.
This kind of coaching doesn’t only give you new insights in your mind but also helps to release stuck energy related to old stories or emotions in the body. Also it helps you to really use your body as a compass and an instrument for what you’d like to achieve or experience in your life. This helps you to trust and feel life on a deeper level.
Many women notice their first changes the moment they have made the decision to give themselves this coaching trajectory. Every single session will bring changes in your awareness and in your body. So after every single session you can notice a difference in yourself. And all these little differences will make a big difference at the end of your trajectory!
It is the biggest gift you can give yourself namely to create a new default mode in yourself that is focussed on pleasure and joy.
For ages sexuality has been suppressed in women for many different reasons. While our biggest power lies in the ability to experience pleasure! This is what supports our light spirit, our life force and energy, our capacity for connection to life, our authentic voice.
When you choose to focus more on your pleasure you will not only give this to yourself but to the people around you as well.
More fun and pleasure, more courage to stand up for yourself, more life force, more life wisdom, more sense of belonging, more lightness and joy, more radiance, more power, more clarity, deeper connections and more easiness around intimacy.
I work from my home in Leiden, the Netherlands. I also offer 1:1 sessions online via Zoom for clients who are not based locally. Via Zoom is even my favourite way of working. We can be ánd really intimate and in our own energy field at the same time.
