Life changed and you’re finding your way forward
For women whose life took a turn they didn’t choose.
Maybe you lost someone.
Maybe motherhood became something different than you imagined.
Maybe everything looks the same but nothing feels the same.
You don’t need fixing.
You don’t need to have it all figured out.
You are allowed to live from here.
What you’ll find here
Support for what comes next
Hi, I’m Desirée
My life has been shaped by love and loss.
I know what it means when life breaks open and how tender it can be to meet life again after that. I guide women who want to move forward with warmth, truth, and direction.
Not rushed.
Not forced.
Just real.
If you’re here, you may be carrying a lot
Not always visible.
Not always spoken.
But real.
You may be longing for:
- calm after a season of survival
- direction, without pressure
- space to breathe again
- a way to carry what happened, and still move forward
- support that doesn’t pull you back into the past
This is a place for women who want to continue gently, honestly, and fully.

Desirée has been an incredible support to me. I don’t know exactly how she does it, but time and again, she reminds me of my own strength and the powerful, loving connection I have with my stillborn daughter, Sanne. From that strength, I was able to face many challenging moments, my due date, pregnancy announcements, getting my period again, the first anniversary, and more. The most confronting moment of 2024 for me, however, was the maternity visit, and Desirée provided me with invaluable support during that time. She made me feel that while I have to go through this myself, I don’t have to do it alone.
I often left our sessions with a completely different energy than when I arrived. The change was so noticeable that even my husband started suggesting, “Maybe it’s time to schedule another session with Desirée.”
Desirée truly acknowledges the enormity of the loss and absence, while also encouraging me to bring the love for my child to the forefront. Because of this, I can now proudly say to everyone: I am the mother of two beautiful daughters to love and one to care for.

I met Desirée at a business event, and her story and mission touched me deeply. After the meeting, we had personal contact, and I decided to join her program, even though it had been 13 years since my last miscarriage. There was still so much I hadn’t fully processed back then, simply because the grief was too overwhelming.
During the program, we talked about my experiences, and it was incredibly healing. Desirée knows from her own experience, which means she doesn’t need any explanations. And the genuine understanding… you can feel it. It’s fundamentally different from people who simply listen.
Through this journey, my babies have found an even deeper place in my life, and I’ve been able to release them even more, in love. I wholeheartedly wish that every woman who has experienced one or more miscarriages or stillbirths would have the opportunity to work with Desirée.

By joining the Stillborn Sisterhood, I have felt more supported in my journey after the loss of my stillborn son. Sharing experiences with other mothers brings a deep sense of recognition and understanding, but also a shared pride that we can celebrate together. Even though we often don’t need many words, we completely understand each other. It is such a relief to be in this safe and warm space where we can listen, share, and draw strength from one another.
What I also deeply appreciate is that Desirée offers the opportunity for one-on-one conversations. These sessions provide space to explore the thoughts and emotions I am dealing with at that moment. Desirée is highly understanding, listens attentively, and acts as a mirror, helping me gain clarity on what is going on inside me. Her objective perspective and coaching approach make me feel heard and supported in my personal process. After such a conversation, I feel acknowledged and relieved, allowing me to move forward with renewed strength.
This experience helps me integrate my loss into my life, and I am grateful for the support and insights I have found within the Stillborn Sisterhood.
