On inner leadership, direction and the courage to make genuine choices.
There are times when everything seems to be just right on the surface — and yet, deep down, something starts to feel off. A feeling that the old story no longer holds true. As if your life is still moving forward, but it's no longer entirely your own.

ABOUT THE BOOK
This book explores what happens when familiar roles begin to shift, when the role that once worked no longer fits, and when the body knows better than the mind. When a person no longer simply wants to survive or conform, but seeks a new direction from within.
It lies at the intersection of philosophy, psychology and lived experience. It is not about analysing from a distance, but about recognising what arises within.
After more than 25 years of management experience in the financial sector, Margareta saw time and again how people can appear successful on the surface whilst at the same time losing their inner sense of direction. This book grew out of that observation and from her many years of in-depth study of existential psychology, logotherapy and integrative psychotherapy.
- Reflections on identity and direction
- Stories from life and leadership
- Insights from philosophy and psychology
- Questions that invite self-reflection
- An invitation to find a new direction when the old story no longer holds true.
