What Others Have Experienced


I began my journey of personal development after many years of passionately dedicating myself to entrepreneurship. Throughout my professional path, I experienced moments of success and challenges that taught me valuable lessons about resilience, purpose, and growth. As I closed this chapter as an entrepreneur, I felt the need to explore my inner self more deeply and connect with my life’s true purpose. This exploration took a transformative turn when I began my training with Dieter. His unique approach resonated deeply with me, offering me powerful tools and techniques to understand myself better and guide others in finding their own inner strength. Through Dieter’s guidance, I’ve not only grown as an individual but also as someone who can inspire and support others on their journey toward happiness and fulfillment. As an immigrant, I’ve experienced the challenges of starting over in a new place, finding belonging, and rediscovering myself. These experiences, combined with the insights from my training with Dieter, have enriched my understanding of transformation and have given me unique tools to empower others.

My journey with Dieter began even before our first Meaning Counselor Training session. He demonstrated a profound sense of guidance, direction, support, and care in a beautiful online session on mindful relationships. I was searching for someone inspirational—and Dieter truly embodies that quality—as we embarked on a wonderful journey into self-understanding, reflection, and self-mastery. Many things in my life began to make sense, and I started feeling a deep sense of calm and inner knowing. That was when I decided to sign up for his Meaning Counselor Training, not only to support my own growth but to help others live a fulfilling life they truly love.

As a psychologist trained in a scientific way, I've always sought innovative methods to enrich my counselling practice. When I attended Dieter's presentation on meaning in life, it struck a deep chord within me. I knew instantly that the Meaning Counsellor Training offered the perfect pathway to infuse greater depth and purpose into my client sessions. This transformative experience not only enriched me both personally and professionally but also empowered me to forge deeper connections on a profoundly meaningful level.

I began my self-development journey in my early forties. However, when I joined the Meaning Training with Dieter, his approach resonated with me because it reached deep into my core with kindness and care, allowing me to explore my inner self confidently. This led to a greater understanding and acceptance of myself plus prompted taking actions that have impacted my life significantly. I now live 5,000 kilometres from my home country and have incorporated meaning into my consulting practice with outstanding results for my clients. Thanks to Dieter, I'm living a meaningful life I love.

After participating in some talks at InterNations, I have joined the Meaning Councelor course in order to improve my mentoring/coaching practices. To my surprise I have been led into a deep discussion and understanding of inner strengths and weaknesses which resulted in an invaluable exercise for myself and my practice. The unique way of our teacher Dieter Langenecker is remarkable and very easy to understand as well as thought provoking. I would recommend strongly taking this course .
