Marika van S. – Cacao Specialist, Circularity & Founder Pacha de Cacao

The five months with Elise were nothing short of life-changing.
To me, she felt like a friend, psychologist, business coach, and somatic guide all in one.
She was always by my side, through frequent voice notes and deep, transformative coaching sessions. Elise showed me that through conscious movement, I can reconnect with my core. Because it comes from such an authentic place within, the answers to my questions began to appear naturally.

With her guidance, I solved major challenges, made faster decisions in my business, and learned to navigate relationships, both in love, work, and family, with more ease. This period has saved me so much time, because making choices has become faster, and I feel more grounded in my decisions.

What started as a search for more online visibility evolved into a deep process of trust, clarity, and connection with myself.
I’m deeply grateful to Elise and can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who wants to lead less from the mind and more from the heart.

For the second time, I embarked on a six-month mentorship journey with Elise. And once again, by the end, I knew: we’re not done yet.

Each time, we go a layer deeper. I come closer to myself. I manage to step out of autopilot, feel what I truly want, and actually express it.

Out of my head. Back into my body.

I’m incredibly grateful for Elise’s guidance, her mentorship, and her sharp yet loving questions throughout this journey. Because transformative, that’s exactly what it is.

Letting go of beliefs that no longer serve me. And not just beliefs, but also things in life that simply no longer work.
Speaking up for myself. Coming home to myself, more and more.

Honestly, I believe everyone deserves a mentor like Elise. 

DORIAN P.- the Netherlands & Sweden – Country Manager Nordics

I started my journey with Elise with a clear intention: I wanted to connect more deeply with my body and my emotions.
During the mentorship, I learned to recognize the signals in my body and how to ground myself in moments of tension or discomfort.
I discovered how to truly connect with myself, how to stay connected, and how to express myself earlier and more authentically, especially in situations where I used to hold back.

Elise is a wonderful coach who challenged me at exactly the right moments, while also helping me see that it’s okay to be soft and kind to myself.

It was a journey of self-discovery, transformation, and deepened awareness. I’d recommend it to anyone!

Lenneke H. – marketing manager

After 6 months in The Homecoming, I’m no longer the woman who got lost in old thoughts and patterns.
Through Elise’s powerful and loving guidance, I learned to hold space for resistance instead of running from it.
My body became my home again.

With her sharp intuition and gentle strength, Elise helped me shift from a victim of old stories to the author of my future.

Thanks to Elise’s unique, deep, powerful, and truly transformative way of working, I now live fully from within myself.

I feel reconnected to my body, my intuition is stronger than ever, and my inner world is becoming more aligned with my outer world.
I now make decisions from a place of both strength and softness, fully in tune with who I truly am.

Elise’s guidance was clear, insightful, and an essential part of my transformation over the past few months.

Jean B. – Entrepreneur Ambassador & program manager

Disconnection was my default mode for years.
Always pushing through, reacting, adapting, without truly feeling what I needed.
Until I stepped into The Homecoming, a 5-month journey with Elise.
She cut right through my patterns and gave me the tools to stop losing myself and start putting myself first.

Now, when chaos hits, I know exactly what to do: pause, feel, choose.
These moments of radical self-connection are the greatest gift I’ve ever given myself.

Seriously, give yourself this work. Work with Elise.

As an entrepreneur and coach, I can get in my way. That’s why I love working with Elise. She gives me the space to reconnect my mind with my body, allowing me to feel, even when it’s uncomfortable. IN THAT SPACE, SOMETHING MAGICAL HAPPENS. Pieces fall into place, and new insights are discovered. I find the answers that enable me to go far beyond my limitations.

Cristina D.- Fractional CMO & Consultant

“ELISE HAS BEEN MONUMENTAL IN MY TRANSITION INTO MY FEMININE POWER. We have started on my initial goals but it soon became obvious to Elise that handling any emotional crisis and releasing tension in the body and the mind was more important. She knew when and how to pivot and for me, that really worked. She was always helpful, deeply connected, and truly interested in how I was between the sessions. I felt taken care of and empowered by a true sister. Thank you for the journey, Elise”

Annet v O.- Managing director tideshift

Dear Elise, what a journey our mentorship has been over the past 12 months. Thank you for being there; there were deep lows and fantastic highs, and I learned so much from both. My biggest lessons are to trust my body, that not everything needs to come from my head, and that I can allow more softness in all aspects of my life. The combination of the sessions, which I found intense but very valuable, and the voice messages in between ensured that I truly got everything I could out of this mentorship and myself. You were constantly able to challenge me in the right way. I HAVE TRULY BEEN ABLE TO GROW IN EVERY ASPECT AS A PERSON.
