“The wisdom shared is very profound and life-changing”

I was blessed to participate in this groundbreaking Leadership Quest. I have been transforming intensely for 12 years and have attended many high-quality leadership development programs, and I have to say this was the most inspiring program I have attended. The wisdom shared is very profound and life-changing. It is the perfect program for leaders who have already done a lot of transformation work and are ready to access deep wisdom so they can play a key role in awakening humanity and helping it rise in consciousness.

“I am eager for more of the initiation”

I feel I was initiated in the field that Anneloes brings forth and I have so much gratitude for this. Because of the profound nature of the times that we are in, we are of course being initiated but we don’t have very many places to go to for entering into initiation that are a through-line from the ancient wisdom traditions and the Indigenous traditions in a way that is so alive in Anneloes. I am eager for more of the initiation, and I am eager to go back into the meditations, to go back into the field and to receive it again and again. The meditations are so profound and they continue to work you. I am looking forward to deepening in this practice. For coming into conscious leadership and to be of the greatest service  that you can possibly be, you can’t get there without this kind of support.

"I found your mentorship of great help"

Thank you Anneloes and EARTHwise Centre for all your support. I found your mentorship of great help this summer as the racing competition I have competed in this season has been very trying at times. I have learned that there are many ways to see the world and people. If you look for the good, you will find it, and if you look for the bad, you will find that, too. I am now focussing on looking for the good.  Everyone experiences hardship or sadness of some sort, but it is how you can engage the uncertain times that matters.  Support through programs like yours allows people to heal and discover a deeper understanding of themselves. Thank you, as I genuinely appreciate the help you put forward to bring personal peace and harmony into the world.

“What she brought was just what I had been longing for”

I felt like I stepped into a sacred circle of women, where I knew I was held lovingly and safely as I delved into the questions I was carrying in my heart. During this time together, I unearthed some golden nuggets because of the unique context, perspective, teachings, practices, and principles that Anneloes brings in such a beautiful, powerful, and heart-centered way. It was apparent that the richness of these teachings was distilled from her many years steeped in Ancient Wisdom teachings, Indigenous ways, and current scientific research. What she brought was just what I had been longing for so I might more deeply explore and discover some answers to questions I had been contemplating for quite some time. It was as if some missing pieces of a puzzle I had been working on for many years were shown to me, and as they found their place, the entirety of the picture I couldn’t quite fully see now came into view in all of its beauty and wholeness. I feel immensely honored, blessed, and grateful for having had this opportunity to embark on this quest with Anneloes as my guide.

"In truth, I think the quest is a gift that keeps on giving"

When I began the leadership quest, I had initially been disorganized and scattered, likely a result of summer school and  sickness. I had not been able to attend the live sessions due to  summer school, but I was able to watch the recordings in my own time. Starting with the first season, I could feel a gradual, but meaningful change begin to occur. Through each of the lessons, the meditations, and the self-reflection, I learned more and more not only about myself but also about perspectives I hadn’t considered before and ways of looking at the world. Other things I had known before but hadn’t truly explored until going through the exercises, being more introspective and pondering the meaning of those thoughts.  Although, I have learned much from the quest and “finished” it, I think there’s still more to the lessons and teachings for me to discover, even now. As such, I will be going back into the lessons to review and think differently about what is in them.  I will be using what I’ve learned and integrated it into my life, in day-to-day circumstances, hard times, and even in ways I haven't thought of yet. In truth, I think the quest is a gift that keeps on giving, and although I hadn’t finished viewing the lessons until recently, I predict I will be coming back to it in the future.

“The quality of everything she does is done with integrity and excellence”

Anneloes Smitsman lives what she teaches and is one of the most generous, humble, brilliant, and loving people I have ever met. The quality of everything she does is done with integrity and excellence. Her actions are aligned with her values, mission, and intention.  Anneloes is someone I trust completely, and when she does something she does it for the good of the Whole.
