Why am I in this situation again?Should I do A, B, C or nothing?Why do I feel and act like this?

Let's make it visible, help you understand and give you a choice. Together. 

Let’s be candid

Working in a creative and innovative environment like a start-up, social business or creative agency can be fun but also hard. Each one is a special place with special challenges. Been there and done all of it. If you are at that point where you feel like you want to create something else for yourself or your company, coaching could be your way to go. Oh and that's what this is: personal and business coaching for creative thinkers and other humans. Hi!

Good to know

My coaching approach is not based on self-optimisation but rather on supporting humans to connect with the resources that are available to them, find trust in them and themselves (again). It's about expanding your choices and getting control over your own actions.

Meet your coach

Hi, I'm Stef,  a mental health and systemic coach and trainer. I worked in the creative industry and start-up world in various positions for over 15 years.

With CanDid Coaching I want to help other creative thinkers to connect with themselves and with each other for the well-being of all. 

Sounds cheesy, but hey that's me. You could say my focus areas are mental health support, e.g. burnout prevention, stress and resilience training but also communications and job coaching. I coach and train in English and German.

“Good to know” the Candid glossary

“Coaching Session”

A coaching session usually takes between 60 and 90 minutes. Multiple coaching sessions define a coaching process. Each session as well as the whole process is facilitated by a coach who guides the coachee through each session by using different methods, e.g. we use the iceberg method.

“Coaching vs. Therapy”

Coaching and (Psycho)Therapy are both individual processes that use psychological methods and interventions to support people who are seeking help. The coachee and her or his thinking, acting and feeling is the focus of the process. One of the most crucial criteria if a process for either of them is successful depends on a working relationship between coach/therapist and client/patient.But there are clear differences: coaching is always willingly and for people who are able to self-manage their daily routines and are clinically “healthy”. If it’s not the case a (psycho)therapy is the right way to (re)establish psychological health. Furthermore coaching focuses on personal and professional growth in the present and actionable strategies for a dedicated goal in the future whereas therapy often focuses on the past and difficulties arising from the past causing emotional dysfunction.  More info can be found on the International Coach Federation FAQ page

“Quiet Quitting”

When people put in the minimum of effort (and hours) to keep their jobs we talk about “quiet quitting”. A common theme in our coaching sessions or in job coaching or business coaching in general because some people realise they feel and act like that but don’t want to and also don’t know what do to about it, what they want etc. Or some people do it willingly, are happy with it but have conflicts with other colleagues or senior management they need help with solving. 

✨ If I had more than 5 stars to give, I would! ✨ Stef and I worked together for a few months and I can not express how much these sessions helped me build confidence, understanding and clear sight of the possibilities my future really holds. Every session was a deep dive into a variety of exercises that helped me better understand myself and more. I was upset to know our last session was the last, but I am forever grateful for the support Stef was able to offer. You're one in a million Stef, thank you for everything!!!

Bass R.Berlin

Working with Stef was incredible. Her coaching was the perfect amount of structured, empathetic, friendly, and fun (even if it was hard work at times). I've received so much amazing career advice, gained some amazing insights, and a whole new confidence level in my professional and in my personal life. Cannot recommend her enough!

Understandably frequently asked questions and answers

The coaching process is individual so it's hard to say how many sessions each person “needs” but from experience it takes about 5-10 sessions.
No, you won't need any prior knowledge or experience. Just come as you are and I'll guide you through the process.
Yes, I do. English and German.
Good question! For me creative thinkers are people who design innovative, creative ideas on a regular basis. May it be because you work in a creative agency or come up with solutions for a better world – or both.
Nah…just kidding. I do. Just book a free call and if it feels good for the both of us I'm happy to support you in your own personal growth process. No matter what you do.
