Hello, I'm Pia

I was born and raised in Denmark and have been living in Berlin for the past 13 years.

I’ve always felt a curiosity about the world and a desire to explore it. ​I started traveling when I was 18, and since then I’ve spent around two and a half years living out of my backpack, exploring different parts of the world. I also lived in California for three years.

When I was young, I remember wanting to make the world a better place. Over time, I realized that this desire was really about contributing to people’s well-being. This led me to study biomedical engineering, and later to work in women’s health in tech.

Why I became a coach

A turning point was when I was close to someone my age who was diagnosed with a serious illness and passed away shortly after.

It shifted something in me. It deepened my curiosity about life and my gratitude for it.

Since then, I’ve been drawn to exploring the human experience through meditation, reading, and inner work.

Over time, this path naturally led me to coaching as a way of working with others in their process of exploration, reflection, and change.

Why the name “With reflection”

​​

I chose the name With reflection because it represents the space coaching creates to reflect and make conscious choices about how to live your life.

 

It also represents the relationship that is at the heart of coaching: having someone who reflects with you and you back to yourself.
