Welcome!
This is politicwise. The platform where politics meets personal development.
Who this is for:
Anyone who wants to make a change and be the change; the learners & open-minded who work on improving themselves while improving the world.
Those in politics in the widest sense: elected officials, candidates, organizers, activists; anyone who asks: ‘how do we want to live together?’ beyond their immediate surrounding - and wants to do something about it.
And for those whose life's work is more than a job, who seek work with deeper meaning - a vocation - that contributes to more than income.
Let's face it: it's easy to criticize those in politics. But being in politics is not an easy ride. And yet, for many who make the leap, it's worth it, they can make a real difference.
So, how can we have both:
How can we make a difference while at the same time showing up as the best version of ourselves?
That’s the guiding questions for politicwise.
And it’s been with me for the last 20 years, when I …
Started out as an activist leading an NGO of 3000 members.
Did my PhD in politics and studied the (mis)use of political power
Quit my job in management consulting to
Help build up a political movement and manage an election campaign.
Coach & train leaders who want to refocus on what matters most and make a difference while staying true to (the best version of) themselves.
I know the answers are out there.
That's why I started politicwise: to explore and share the ideas, mindsets and tools of wise people in politics and beyond.
💌 Every Tuesday, I post evidence-based ideas & tools for personal growth in politics - to fuel your personal and political journey - and make politics wiser.
🎙️ Every other Tuesday, I share a podcast episode where I interview political leaders, psychologists, neuroscientists, philosophers about their findings and experiences.
