After many years of working in the tourism industry, among others, and an increasing questioning of the meaningfulness of her work and her life, Renate made a necessary decision: To use this experience of crisis as an opportunity and to dare a professional reorientation. After completing her university studies with a focus on social psychology, training in family therapy and training as a meditation teacher, she was able to experience the joy of a lively and meaningful job for a quarter of a century, in which she was able to develop her skills and strengths to accompany and support people seeking advice.For example, in the area of strengthening individual resources, in the area of life-affirming crisis management, in the area of developing self-knowledge, self-confidence and self-realization, in the seminar: "Two souls live, alas! in my breast", as well as in meditation groups for those seeking a fulfilled life.
The guiding principle of her psychological and spiritual counseling is: BECOME WHO YOU TRULY ARE. Since human beings are holistic beings, the goal is to achieve a harmonious integration of their thoughts, feelings, and actions, as well as a genuine relationship with themselves and others.
Renate has also been interested in philosophical and mythological topics and wisdom teachings for many years. Her love of philosophy prompted her - after training as an audiobook narrator - to record and produce an audiobook herself in 2018 with the beautiful and extraordinary Renaissance text by G. Pico della Mirandola: "On the Dignity of Man". The philosophical-theological treatise on freedom and peace.
