Get your free Guide here for deeper Clarity in you before making any Changes.

This Guide takes you through 5 deep questions that help you understand what keeps you stuck, what is repeating in your life or relationships right now and how to move forward with more Clarity.

From Stuck to Clarity in times of change

Feeling stuck or lost often happens when we are in the “in between”.

Where the old is no longer true, but the new isn’t clear and feels very unknown.

This is where your old familiar patterns and stories get triggered the most. And your own inner clarity and truth might not feel loud enough to be heard or you don’t trust it yet.

Maybe you are…

living a life that looks fine from the outside, but inside it doesn’t feel true anymore to you
in a relationship that used to feel like home and now it feels more like functioning together
leading, building, or holding everything together, and constantly feeling tired and under pressure
realising that the same patterns show up again and again in new jobs, relationships and situations
getting stuck in always second-guessing, doubting and never trusting yourself
fearing the consequences of what would happen if you are stepping out and letting yourself fully seen
in your 40s or older and wondering if it’s too late to make any changes
knowing something has to change, but not knowing how and fear keeps you staying stuck

My work is for you when you are ready to be honest about what is really going on and when you want to understand where these repeating issues come from.

I help you come back to yourself underneath what you learned to be. So you can choose your next steps from clarity and self awareness, not fear.

I work with individuals, couples, leaders, firefighters, coaches and business owners who are trying to grow and change, but keep running into the same old stories and patterns along the way and keep getting stuck and lost in them.

This is not about surface-level changes.
This is about changes that are rooted in your truth.
And there are steps you can take to make changes that last.

What this work is about

Most of what keeps us stuck isn’t happening now. It is an old story, something we learned early about who we are, what is safe, and what is allowed and accepted, and it’s still impacting us without us being aware of it.

I believe those stories come from what you learned. Your family and their experiences, the role you were expected to play growing up, and the patterns you learned as normal impact you more than you may realise.

These stories can sound like:

“It’s too late for me to change anything.”

“I have to keep going and can’t show any weakness.”

“If I am really myself, no one will accept me.”

“I have to keep the peace no matter what it costs me.”

“I have to do it all myself. Otherwise I have failed.”

When you see what is underneath, you can actually change it.

My work goes to your truth.

A lot of change work focuses on the symptoms:

the problem in your job
the conflicts in your relationship
the burnout that you feel
the crisis that you feel stuck in

But if the change does not go to the root of what shows, the pattern will keep repeating.

My work helps you to:

understand what is really going on underneath your current situation
uncover the roots of what keeps repeating in your life and relationships
reconnect with who you truly are and what any real changes can look like
rebuild after the changes in a way that feels true to you so that changes will last

This is what becomes possible

When change is rooted in who you truly are, you stop trying to force your life into something that you learned or think you should be or do.

Instead you begin to:

trust yourself again
make clearer decisions
stop repeating the same emotional cycles
rebuild relationships, work, and identity more honestly
create change that actually lasts

My work helps you to reconnect to yourself and understand yourself on a deeper level. This helps you to have clarity about what needs actually changing and how to make those changes in your life, relationships, work or business.

Areas we go into:

your identity and beliefs about yourself, relationships or work
your fears, doubts, people pleasing and similar learned patterns
your relationships, family roles, dynamics you keep staying in
being present, trusting your intuition, staying calm during stress
rebuilding from a deeper understanding, trust and self knowledge

You didn't choose what you have learned to be.
You learned it growing up in order to belong.
But you can change it and find your own truth.
I know its possible. Because that's what I did myself.

My Story

Hi, I’m Franziska Maria — short Fran.

I am a German social worker, mentor, systemic constellator, trainer and Ultrarunner – and I know what it means to rebuild your life with deeper self knowledge after making changes.

I left a social work career after many years and opened my own business 10 years ago now. I have lived in 3 different countries and travelled through many more. I have built a new life many times, moved through a divorce and remarriage, and created an intercultural relationship and life in America where I live now.

I also know how it feels to rebuild your courage and self trust again when you feel you have lost yourself in an old identity and life: through reconnecting to yourself and what matters to you, going through uncertainty, choosing new, moving your body, resilience and endurance running and traveling to new places. My running became my place to reconnect to myself & learning to go further. And it showed me what we are truly capable of. When we take the first step.

I bring more than 20 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, leaders and business owners through change, identity shifts, transformations, relationship developments and difficult life transitions.

Now I help you to get clear what is not working anymore in your life, relationship and work. And how to make changes from your truth that last.

This work matters a lot to me.

Because I have lived through it all myself. And I am still rebuilding and living it now.

“I always had a fear that something was wrong with me. That I needed to be different .

Now I know I can just be myself. And I know it is absolutely ok. I can trust myself to make decisions.

And I was able to trust Fran and open up to her. For the first time I feel able to fully live my own life.

Sara

“There is much more peace in me. I truly know working with Fran has helped me tremendously.

There is something about her that makes me feel comfortable & she is just very easy to talk to.

I can tell that Fran sincerely listens to what I say. And I know others feel that too. A true gift!”

“Your Questions helped me reflect on things I hadn’t given thought to for over a decade, and your sharing of your stories, experience and wisdom helped me improve my thinking, increase my clarity and strengthen my sense of self.

I always knew I was in a safe space and could ultimately trust in you as my guide and that made it incredibly comfortable to be open, and to really try to go deeper in myself, thinking about what is really going on and where to go next. It was all incredibly helpful and just what I needed.”
