    When the Facilitator Feels Lonely with Bertold Ulsamer

    Episode 9: When the Facilitator Feels Lonelywith Bertold Ulsamer Part four of a special five-part series with Bertold Ulsamer—author, teacher, and elder in the field of Family Constellations, and a direct student of Bert Hellinger. This episode speaks to anyone who holds space for others—therapists, facilitators, teachers, guides, and helping professionals. Together, we explore the loneliness that can arise from the role, the risk of burnout, and what supports us in staying grounded, human, and present in the work. Bertold and I reflect on the inner life of the facilitator, the roots of these challenges, and how doing our own work helps us stay resilient while holding space for others. This is one of my favorite conversations, and I warmly recommend it to anyone engaged in relational, therapeutic, or facilitation work.

    Professional Success, Money & the Family Tree with Bertold Ulsamer

    Episode 8: Professional Success, Money & the Family Tree with Bertold Ulsamer Have you ever wondered how much of your professional success—and your relationship with money—comes from your family system? In this episode, I’m joined by Bertold Ulsamer, author, teacher, elder in the field of Family Constellations, and a direct student of Bert Hellinger, for part three of our five-part series. We begin with professional success and allow the conversation to unfold into money, family roots, inner conflict, responsibility, and becoming an adult. Together, we explore why success can feel blocked or unconsciously sabotaged, and how constellation work supports the movement from victimhood into adulthood. You’ll also experience a guided exercise for integrating two inner voices in conflict, along with reflections on Bertold’s own professional journey. If you’re curious about the deeper systemic roots of success and money, this episode is for you.
