UrbanEmpower

Guiding people toward their authentic voice, personal power, and creative confidence

—whether in career, writing, or life.

As a facilitator and part of the mentoring community Good Life Designed

I offer workshops, a full personal leadership process and 1:1.

Self-discovery in Good Company

Are you feeling stuck, uncertain about your next phase, or in need of structure and support to move forward?

Joining a Designer Circle gives you practical tools to:
* Gain clarity and map out your current life state
* Identify what energises and drains you
* Create sustainable change with a clear framework
* Find inspiration and courage to achieve your personal and professional goals.

This small-group experience unfolds over seven sessions, following an online course designed by Pernille Spiers-Lopez—business leader, Global HR Executive, and former president of IKEA America.

Designer Circles are available in person and online.

The Power of One - 1:1 Sessions

The facilitated one to one sessions are based on the Good Life Designed process and will help you get unstuck, to the core of what matters for you, guide you through uncertainty, and help you create sustainable goals.

If you are ready to take ownership for your life, this work can be transformational and provide you with tools to live your best life aligned with your core values.

✨ Mindful Journaling sessions for organizations and charities, including Shepherds Star, HomeBoy Industries, MomCo UK & Ireland, and Makers United.

Each experience is designed to inspire awareness, creativity, and personal growth, helping people connect more deeply with themselves and the world around them.

I met GLD founder Pernille Spiers-Lopez in 2010, when I was asked to write the book about her career and life. The book “Hvis dit liv var et køkken” (If Your Life was a Kitchen) was the beginning of a great friendship and cooperation, which we decided to continue for the American version “Design Your Life.”

Together with Pernille, her daughter Sine, and a small team, I have been part of growning the concept beyond the book adding workshops, an online course, retreats, a blog featuring everyday Life Designers, personal mentoring and Design Circles.

Thank you, Karin, for guiding us through the Good Life Designed process of designing and reflecting on our lives and values! I am very happy that I finally decided to invest in myself and commit the time to do it.
