My story

Hello you! My name is Milou and here is a bit about me:

I am a German that spent most their youth as a free-spirited child in Switzerland. Being given the opportunity for self-discovery, I was involved in several different activities growing up, such as Ballet, Tennis, Swimming and being a Scout. The love for art and self-expression came through years of singing and playing instruments, being involved in bands, orchestras and choirs and getting to share magic on stage.

During young adulthood i moved to Cape Town, which led to living a rather inactive and unhealthy life. When the Covid Lockdown hit, I found myself feeling stuck and dissatisfied with my lifestyle and my priorities. Looking for a routine during a time, where everyday could be the same, I decided to make changes to how I was living my life; sedentary and with little motivation to keep my body well and active. It started by adding daily yoga, exercise, and healthy vegetarian cooking into my routine.

By incorporating these small habits like rising early before the sun, engaging in mind-body-soul nurturing activities, daily exercising and fun hobbies in nature, such as trail running and surfing, cold showers and playing around with different diets and routines, I soon realized that it did not only make me physically stronger and healthier but it taught me discipline, self-love, mental strength and endurance.

As I became healthier and stronger, I noticed it positively impacting other areas of my life. I discovered a passion for my own health that was so strong and meaningful that it led me to pursue new skills and courses. I first studied personal training and nutrition, while learning to thrive on a healthy routine and soon after approached a more holistic education by studying health and wellness, holistic health and in-depth coaching.

I transformed my life by creating clear goals that I work towards every day. With a sense of optimism, love of living and expressing, I now dance through this life with confidence, high energy and big dreams, feeling powerful and beautiful, thankful for this body and the many ways i continuously get to know it.

Now, I want to help you to get on your own health journey and empower you to lead your most fulfilling life.

My vision

My vision as a coach is to help you achieve an equally meaningful transformation as the one I experienced. I believe that being healthy is the foundation for a happy and fulfilling life, and that a holistic approach that takes into account physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being is the key to achieving that.

Through my own journey of self-discovery and personal growth, I have gained knowledge and experience that I want to share with you and empower you to live with self-love, rooted happiness, and a sense of purpose.

My coaching is focused on sustainable, long-term lifestyle changes that can help you achieve lasting results by making small achievable steps. I wanna be there to support and help you make yourself accountable.

As I believe that mindset is key to success, I will help you cultivate a growth mindset, focus on progress rather than perfection, and approach challenges with a positive and resilient attitude.

I created M.POWEREDHEALTH to build a warm and trusting space for open expression, self-actualization and growth. To make a positive impact and invite you to become inspired and empowered and take charge of your health and well-being.

I am committed to raising awareness and educating you on how to become healthy, realize your potential, and live every day with a sense of endless energy, a fresh spirit and life lust.

Let´s celebrate the small successes and work towards big ones!

... because healthy people are happy people.

Why I am the right coach for you

I am the right coach for you because of my unique skill set and wide scope of practice. My expertise in several important health fields, such as nutrition, sports nutrition and exercise sets me apart from other health coaches. Having studied coaching, I work with important coaching and learning models to achieve optimal progress.

But what truly sets me apart is my personal journey. I have been on both sides of the spectrum and truly understand the challenges and obstacles you may be facing.

I have the ability to create safe spaces for open expression and inspire, so that we can work together to find the very best path for you and bring out your inner wisdom.

My positive and optimistic approach is a great tool to empower you and keep you motivated on your journey towards better health and wellness.

I acknowledge that the road to health is a different one for each individual and I am ready to find yours. With my guidance, we can create a plan that works specifically for you and helps you achieve your health and wellness goals.
