Netty was an inspiration to me as my yoga teacher. She has such a gentle, genuine spirit and is an amazing yoga instructor - so I followed her on Instagram. I began to witness her devotion to helping people and passion for coaching. I clinked a link for more information, truly thinking I was subscribing to her newsletter and she messaged me and invited me to meet for coffee. I am so glad I went! I felt so comfortable with her and it was so easy to talk to her. I thought maybe she could give me some nutrition and exercise information. Some tips to help me do better for everyone else (cook better meals for my family, be more productive maybe?). The first session I talked about what everyone I loved had been through and how I wanted to help them. About our third session, I think, she helped me begin to ask myself what I feel and what I need in the moments throughout my day. Through our time together, I uncovered some things I needed to process in therapy, gained an understanding of ways to help me access my needs and feelings in real time so I could communicate in a more true and meaningful way with my loved ones, leading to a deeper and more authentic connection. I began to naturally return to creative spaces and prioritize the things that were life-giving to me. I even uncovered my need to leave my job and pursue something new. Through this time, I found my voice (after some very real and suppressed trauma) and began establishing negotiables and non-negotiables for myself. At every turn, Netty listened and essentially held up a mirror for me. She recommended resources, helped me mark my progress and celebrated my growth. At every turn, Netty listened and essentially held up a mirror for me. She helped me find myself at a time I was feeling very lost, and I will forever be grateful. She is trustworthy and kind. She is a blessing - a wise, patient and very gifted guide.
