Her Soul Sabbatical

Who this is for

You've built a life that looks exactly right from the outside. But somewhere between the career and the calendar, a quiet voice has started asking: is this everything?

You're not lost. You're not ungrateful. You're someone who has outgrown the version of herself she worked so hard to become, and who knows, quietly, that there's more.

Meet Dineke

Hi, I'm Dineke

Happiness psychologist & founder of Her Soul Sabbatical

UC Berkeley teaching assistant Radboud University 4-year sabbatical · 6 countries

I taught the science of happiness for years, as an online teaching assistant for UC Berkeley's The Science of Happiness and at Radboud University. Then I traded a settled life for a one-way ticket that became a four-year sabbatical: Paris, Spain, Italy, New Zealand, California, Portugal.

Everything I share, I lived first: the science, the surrender, and the wide-open life on the other side. That's the work now.

The invitation

All the possibility of before,
all the wisdom of now

That wide-open feeling was never about being young. It was a perspective, and you get to choose it again, this time with everything the years have given you.

Received love

Dineke is a great coach. She helped my personal development along during a confusing, yet exciting period in my life. Her guidance provided me with clarity and a sense of peace. It was so so so nourishing to dial in to our call and getting coached by Dineke. She is the kindest, most dedicated coach one can wish for.

Dineke! Thank you for such a beautiful and well thought out dinner and circle. Everything from the delicious and healthy food to the gift bag at the end was so gorgeous and generous. Highlights are many! Much love X

Camilla
Women's Circle

Coaching by Dineke has really transformed me as a person. Without her, my life would be less loving. And now I can ascend to the path of becoming my highest self. I truly believe I can impact many people in a wholesome way. In doing so, I will work towards reforming all industries, technologies, systems, and more, from a place of love for the unknown and love for exploration and adventure at the frontier. With her coaching, I have discovered: I am the living embodiment of love, and I am here to bring love to the world. With Dineke's coaching, my life has been filled with so much love and meaning, and I am truly grateful for that.
