Hi, I’m Jasper and I help people set goals, build a process towards them and most importantly cope with the stress and anxiety emerging as we progress towards these set goals.

At age 21 I had a horrible accident. I fell from a building and ended up in a deep coma. I thought I had ruined my life and the lives of the people around me. I lost my ability to walk and speak. I really hit rock bottom that day. There was only one way to I go from here and that was up. You couldn’t fall much deeper than this. I worked for years to recover physically but most importantly mentally. This is where I met my friend anxiety. At the beginning, Anxiety was a very annoying, tedious and offending companion. My companion Anxiety made me cry. My companion Anxiety threw me back time after time while I was making progress towards my recovery goals.

Anxiety and I needed to get to know each other a little bit. Anxiety is very dominant and claimed all my time and mind space at the start of our relationship. But as time evolved, I got to understand Anxiety better. Anxiety was just a scared and insecure creature that needed love and reassurance. I tried to see my friend Anxiety as a very critical and negative friend who was helping me to steer my life in the right directions. Often times, I thought I was on a roll recovering from my accident, but then anxiety gave me another visit and threw me back down again. We got to know each other better and better over time. Eventually, I tried to shake his hand, to recognise his existence. Since friends often give bad advice that you don’t want to follow, I also informed anxiety that I would stop following him everywhere he took me.

Anxiety has become a motivator and a healthy check for me instead of an emotional state that causes stress and negativity impeding me from reaching my goals. After I had overcome my anxiety I established four businesses, sold two of them, am still growing Amplio coaching and have lived in 4 different countries. My accident and all the anxiety associated with it stretched me to a new level. But seriously, I really loathe to see so many people struggling with their inner demons. Those pinching thoughts that can bring you so much out of control.

I decided that I want to dedicate my life to making anxiety your friend instead of your enemy. I want to help people learn to set their goals, determine the process and cope with their anxieties along the way. I will teach you how to make anxiety your friend and to not let it keep you from reaching your goals.
