Marlies's Story

I'm very grateful for this training. My goal in my personal life has become to be happy. My work has changed dramatically. I don't feel responsible for the luck of the kids and the parents anymore. They are responsible for themselves. I give the kids I work with full responsibility for their own happiness. The only thing I have to do is give them space to be themselves. They do the rest. My job has become to translate their behavior to the parents and teachers and to take care that the adults give the kids the space and trust to solve their own problems and more important that they give their kids space to be themselves so they can live their own life. My job is to teach kids to trust themselves. And to let parents trust themselves so they can trust their kids. I really expect a lot of the children. All the kids can handle this responsibility and they are really happy that someone is expecting from them that they can do it. That makes my work, especially with the kids, like a party everyday. I'm very grateful I can live the life I dreamt of with my partner, my kids, and my work. I believe it's achievable for everybody. That is my biggest drive in work. I'm very grateful that I did discover that during this course.
