EXECUTIVE & TEAM COACH
Here’s what people are saying about Carolina Kudo Coaching
“If you’re looking to turn a personal or career challenge into an opportunity to connect with your inner strength, I would highly recommend getting in touch with Carolina. She amazed me with her talent to guide me through practical exercises that brought me closer to my authentic self and led to some truly empowering experiences I can easily tap (back) into moving forward.
After our initial conversation, I decided to go for the Play Big package. I was at a cross roads in my career and had to make some difficult choices. Right from the start, it was so easy to open up to Carolina. She is such a warm professional with a true ability to listen which I could tell from her spot on feedback. She also helped me discover new perspectives which made it possible for me to see myself in a new light. Our conversations every time felt like a huge gift to myself. They helped me feel strong, uplifted and connected to my authentic self, which was exactly the mindset I needed to make the decisions I had to make. I now feel very confident about my decisions, because I know they were well-thought through and from the heart.”
- Lisa van Kreuningen (Strategic communications, Shell)
“Carolina's calm demeanour and powerful intrinsic dedication to her coachees really made it possible for me to achieve transformation! Thank you!”
- Antonio Menezes (Chairman of Engineers Without Borders - NL)
“Some people have the determination to be the best version of themselves and bring the best out of people at the same time, and Carolina is definitely one of them. She is a quiet force who sees the best in each situation. Her natural positivity and excellent analytical skills make her a natural coach. I couldn’t recommend her more.”
- Natalia Hawken (Senior Research Scientist)
“What an eye-opening experience! This is my first coaching experience in life, and the five sessions have given me much more than I expected. Carolina's coaching sessions have definitely given me back my trust in myself as well as love in myself as a woman, wife, mother and of course myself.”
“In every session Carolina has listened to me sincerely yet cautiously in a safe professional manner, in which I could objectively find a way with her so as to learn, find, and seek out for what my real desires lie in my heart. It is difficult to find your true passion alone but with Carolina, she gives you a light along the way to listen to yourself and a map to follow in a clear manner. Her international background, sincerity and positive attention will help you open yourself up at ease as the way you are in every session.”
“I highly recommend Carolina as your life coach if you need an international coaching professional to talk to or even just to clear up your mind.”
- Hitomi Inage-Veldman (International relations advisor)
“Carolina is so powerful. An encouraging and amazing woman and coach. She constantly helps me to put my own values in order and inspires me to become better every day by increasing my self-esteem. She always brings up that question that makes me more aware of who I am, what I want and how I want it, and she always triggers that initiative in me to take the next step. I am so grateful to have her around. She enlightens me.”
- Aida Alsa (Professional Coach)
“I would highly recommend Carolina! She helped me find my inner strength with the most interesting conversations, but also with practical (visualisation) exercises. I found peace in surfing the waves of live. Thanks a lot!”
- Evelien Habing (Consultant at Mixit)
“I have experienced Carolina's coaching as a beautiful journey to my past and above all a beautiful look ahead to what is to come, how I want to be in life and who I want to be. By establishing my own standards and values and drawing up my bucket list, I remain well balanced and strive for optimal happiness. Thank you Carolina, you are a very fine, professional, and good coach.”
- Babette Meijer (Executive Search Associate with Legal People)
“There is something quite unique about Carolina’s coaching. As a coach she is very much herself in a grounded, calm way, and genuinely connected to me as her coachee, which invited me to be more of my full self too. I needed to process some big stuff in order to move on and be more grounded, and with her I felt safe to do that. Her coaching has had a deep and lasting impact on me and I’m so grateful for it.”
“In addition to having had the joy of being coached by Carolina, we have also trained and worked together and I’ve experienced her kindness and integrity throughout.”
Marjolijn Vlug (certified career coach)
“Before I started working with Carolina I was in quite an unsure place in my life. Although I had a job I enjoyed and a nourishing marriage I wanted to make a bigger difference in the world but felt very hesitant and anxious, especially as we were still coming out of the various pandemic lockdowns.”
“Carolina took a very relaxed and nuturing approach with me. I very quickly felt comfortable to open up and share my ideas and thoughts, some of which I had not talked about with anyone else. She encouraged me to think big and explore the gifts and talents that I often take for granted.”
“Through our work, I became much clearer on the direction I wanted to take my business in and the people I wanted to work with. She helped me deal with anxieties and stresses I was experiencing in some personal relationships in my life so that I was able to tackle them with greater courage.”
“I would definitely recommend working with Carolina if you want to find more connection to what really matters to you and build the courage and energy to pursue what you want to achieve in life.”
Richard Jones (Public speaking coach & business taxes specialist)
“It's amazing how much I can achieve when I am coached by Carolina. We've worked on several topics and she always helps me find my own solution. For example, we discussed career, the next steps to help the company I work for further improve in Operational Excellence, how to approach my new role, who my allies are in the organisation and how to connect with them. I highly recommend working with Carolina.”
Cristina Jackson (Operational Excellence Leader at Covestro)
“I have been working with Carolina for over a year now, and it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. I knew I was in my own way, but you don't know what you don't know, and I have realised through our work together just how much. Working with Carolina weekly and then bi-weekly has helped me totally get out of my own way, change my mindset on things and enabled me to live a much more purposeful life.
I now pay much more attention to their thoughts and feelings and have my own insights into what is holding me back, and identify patterns of behaviour that are not serving me.
Additionally, Carolina offers me a level of accountability I have been missing for a long time. Helping me craft a vision and purpose in my life, what I value and how it all fits together.
I have already recommended Caroline to others and will continue to do so!”
Scott R (Agile Coach)
“Carolina coached me during my career transition summer 2022. I experienced her as a great listener, with the quality to attune to me as a client, and find the right balance between guiding me and challenging me. With her support, I gained deeper insight into my deeper values, how to bring them into a (work) role, and overcome internal barriers that might keep me from doing so. The result? A greater sense of freedom and clearer sense of purpose, for which I am very grateful.”
Jos Blom (Organization Developer | Executive Master of Change Candidate at INSEAD)
“Carolina is the perfect coach for me. She helped me figure out how I could look at myself better, as I used to downplay my part within the organization I work in. For instance: we discussed situations where I experienced stress and found out how I could deal with them.
The sessions have helped me a lot. I'm looking forward to being coached more by her in the future and can recommend Carolina to anyone who wants to find ways to improve themselves.”
Simon Klees (Scrum Master with Alliander)
