Meet Mirsada Hoffmann!
She is a parent coach for overwhelmed English speaking parents living internationally.
Mirsada focuses on parents of children who are with a child who is struggling educationally, emotionally, socially or behaviourally and looking for ways to support their child better.
She has been part of the MasterMinds Since November 2023, and is in the Grow my Why group that meet twice a month on Mondays at 14:00 in Nyon.
As a mom to four, and having lived on three different continents while raising her children, she knows like no other the complexities these transitons bring with it. There are complexities that are difficult to foresee and have a considerable impact on family life and well being. With the proper strategies these can be minimised and managed. They should definitely not be overlooked.
When you next see Mirsada at one of our events, have a chat about the transition periods you've been through personally and compare a few of the experiences...
You are the average of those you surround yourself with.
When I look at those around in our MasterMinds community I always feel so grateful.
Our members are smart, talented, kind and so much fun!
Let’s continue to lift each other up.
Have a look at who surround you, I wish you as much joy as I have when I look around at what you see.
Below are a few impressions from our members Christmas breakfast.
Thank you to everyone for coming and making the group so energetic and fun!

I speak 4 languages fluently, and in all of them a speak with an accent…
I speak Dutch and French with an English accent
I speak English with an Irish accent (No idea where that came from, but I often get asked if I’m Irish)
I speak a strange blend of Spanish with a mix of an Andalusian accent and South American vocabulary. Probably an English or Dutchish accent...
For a long time, I found this a little embarrassing. I don’t speak any of them perfectly.
But in the end, isn’t it the surprising facts people discover that make us interesting in the first place?
So many of us come from everywhere and nowhere, and it’s one of our biggest strengths.
It reminds me of the discomfort often felt professionally,
Those that are generalists feel they don’t know enough about something specific.
Those that are experts in their field feel their vision is too narrow.
What are the...
"Communicate and Connect"
That was the theme of the workshop Helen von Dadelszen and I delivered for about 70 people from diverse backgrounds in Barcelona.
Communication goes through:
The non-verbal
Communication style preferences
Our voice and presence
All of this was delivered with a healthy dose of improv and hilarity
Here are a few of the key take-aways people had:
“Everyone has their own communication style, and you have to listen and observe in order to identify the best way of communicating and be understood.”
“When people are under stress, remember that’s not really who they are as a person, they are using a coping mechanism. Connect on the human level instead.”
"I've learned about us and our group spirit. Alone we go fast, together we go far."
“Letting go of fear can be fun”
Looking for a fun and insightful team building to foster connection and...
As we reach the end of year rush, here are a few things to ask yourself:
What were your goal at the start of this year
Where do you stand today
What have been your biggest learnings so far
What can you implement now to finish your year strong
Here are a few questions that we asked ourselves during our MasterMinds “Social Monday”
This happens every 5th Monday of the month and it’s a chance to get together and reflect on and discuss a common topic that affects us all in our community.
Here are some of the takeaways:
Narrow your focus to one or two very precise objectives for the remainder of the year to finish strong.
Do some targeted networking this year end -> but before you do have a very clear “mini pitch” so people truly understand what they can reach out to you for.
Schedule marketing efforts well ahead of time to free yourself up for the critical thinking you need to do rather than the “busy work” that...
Pieter has been part of the MasterMinds November 2023 and is part of "The Originals" who meet twice a month on Mondays at 09:00 in Nyon.
Fun fact: He grew up on a tulip farm in the Netherlands where he developed a passion for making videos. When he moved to Switzerland in 2019 it was the right time for him to create Tulip Films.
He helps his clients tell their story effectively by using video as an impactful marketing tool. This allows them to reach theirs goal by offering a Swiss army knife of video production skills. From the very first idea to script and from production to online video distribution and every step in between.
As a man from a flat country like the Netherlands, he totally fell in love with the Alps. So every week you can find him at least once on the trail or on a via ferrata, its were he goes to relax and refresh his mind.
Connect with him either on LinkedIn, or have a look at the website here.
