Ria speaks about why she feels called to work with women and how come women are programmed to put themselves on the second place.
Make sure you watch all 3 video's to see how the interviewer Ivonne goes through a coaching process.
Ria explains why it is a myth to think that women are unique in their struggles, and why it is difficult to create a breakthrough by your own.
Ria speaks about the new and feminine meaning of success and the importance of knowing what your calling is.
"Many talented and creative women that feel blocked to succeed, are just lacking tools, insights and support". -- Ria van Doorn
Ria is committed to help women understand and exercise their power, so that they can remake the world.
Ria van Doorn is a leadership and business coach and works with women who are already a positive force. She helps take that to the next level of success, in a feminine way, without burning themselves out.
As a qualified life and business coach, she has been teaching transformational, life–changing programs for more than 20 years. She began as a consultant for The Dutch Police Force in 1994, where her task was to prevent newly hired police women from prematurely leaving the police force, as a result of the clash between feminine and masculine culture.
Since then, Ria has specialised in unleashing women’s potential, so that businesses will not miss out on women’s’ unique contribution.
In 2012 Ria conducted the first Portuguese national survey about women’s wellbeing, to find out what the biggest obstacles are that hold women back from thriving.
The conclusion is that collaboration, mutual support and having positive role models, the most important success formulas are, for feminine leadership and individual wellbeing.
Over the years she has helped many women entrepreneurs to overcome the obstacles that where holding them back to be successful so that they can earn a good income, doing what they love.
Ria knows what it is that women need in order to thrive, both personal as well as professional. That is why she coaches her clients towards a life or a business model, based on feminine values, such as caring, generosity, fulfilment, empathy, cooperation and integrity.
While working with team leaders, she found out that both men and women are unhappy or feel burnt-out because of the masculine culture they work in. Nowadays corporations are still guided by male values such as competition, scarcity, hierarchy, dominance, ego and linear growth. People are ready to have a different work-experience and long to create a more sustainable and empathic business model.
There is no room for the New Economy if it continues to rely on old, patriarchal values. Women and their values are therefore of great importance in shaping that New Economy.
As a public speaker, Ria shares her vision on the new feminine leaders and how they are ready to impact and influence.
She offers programs that help women to rise, so that they can own their power, step into new roles, impact the world and lead teams, projects and businesses, based on feminine values: togetherness instead of isolation, collaboration instead of competition, empowerment instead of power over.
"Ria has the talent and experience to unlock a persons strengths, as well as the ability to help take back control of any fear that is holding you back to expand your business. Her coaching gave me so much fresh insight and energy. I can certainly recommend Ria's programs to anyone who wants to make a positive change and grow their business."

“Ria knows how to name what drives women - and also what holds them back to thrive. During the course I did with Ria, I suddenly recognised how I sabotage myself and the expansion of my business, and in that 'Aha moment' I got the insight how to redirect my focus.”
