Why it is different
This isn’t a course about theory or control. It’s an embodied experience of navigating complexity, tuning into the signals your body, relationships, and environment provide.
We move beyond linear models of change into something alive and dynamic—a wayfinding process that helps you take action, even when the path is unclear.
This course isn’t just about tools and frameworks—it’s about stepping into the practice of change & transformation, expanding your capacity to lead in alignment with your evolving self.
Reconnecting with your own sense of aliveness enables you to show up differently, with a sense of congruence and courage that draws people in and inspires trust.
By embracing a collective approach, we acknowledge that we cannot do this alone. We create a supportive learning environment where participants can move beyond traditional problem-solving frameworks and cultivate the capacity to create new ways forward in complex environments.
This is what you'll learn
- A new paradigm for understanding change, transition, and transformation—what sets them apart and how to navigate each with clarity and confidence.
- Practical skills to guide yourself and others through the turbulence of complexity.
- Tools to spark aliveness and creativity in yourself and your work.
- A fresh language and habits of mind to shift the way you approach change and transformation.
- The courage to let go of the old, trust your instincts, and move toward a more coherent and inspired way of being.

“A practical and empowering framework to pause and take stock of your journey in any context. Extremely relevant in our messy world.”
— Marlene de Lange, Director of Grow Consulting.
“I highly recommend the Waysfinding framework for deeper self-understanding and growth. This 6-week journey expanded my awareness, helped me embrace uncertainty, and tuned me into my body’s wisdom. Mirjam and Sonja created a safe space for authentic, vulnerable exploration. The experience shifted me from a purely rational approach to a more intuitive and holistic path.”
— Robert Merlo, Sales & Business Development Executive.
“This 6-week program offered itself as an unexpected oasis—both refreshing and transformative. Delivered with expertise, grace, and respect, Mirjam and Sonja struck the perfect balance between information, exploration, and structure.”
– Gail Cox, Leadership Coach.
What is the WaysFinder framework?
The WaysFinder framework is a practical compass that helps you befriend the Unknown and make informed decisions amid uncertainty.
Rooted in complexity theory, anthropology, and mindfulness, it may seem simple, but its impact lies in that simplicity.
We liken it to switching on a powerful radar or searchlight that can help you to:
- Orient yourself, i.e. get a better sense of where you are.
- Set boundaries by acknowledging where you can’t or don’t want to go.
- Set a direction that feels alive and generative.
- Identify edge possibilities you want to explore.
When facing uncertainty, it’s easy to get stuck in overthinking or indecision. The WaysFinder breaks through this stuckness, encouraging small steps and constant momentum.
Faced with constant change and disruption, these skills—rooted in wayfinding traditions like those of the Polynesians and Inuit—are invaluable. They allow individuals, teams and organisations to continuously navigate uncertainty, unlock potential, and expand strategic horizons.
This is for you if you
- Feel stuck in the loop of overthinking and second-guessing, unsure how to reignite your spark.
- Crave forward momentum but feel caught between fear of the unknown and the pull to step beyond what’s familiar.
- Feel the weight of expectations from your team, clients, peers, or community—but want to show up differently, with a sense of congruence, aliveness, and courage that draws people in and inspires trust.
Take Anna, for example. She’s spent years leading teams through organisational change, but now she’s the one grappling with transition. The strategies that once worked feel hollow, and she’s lost the spark that once fueled her passion for her work. She knows something new is calling, but the path ahead feels murky and overwhelming.
Or James, a senior leader whose confidence is shaken. The eyes of his team are on him, expecting certainty and direction, but internally, he feels tangled—caught between maintaining the old way of doing things and stepping into a more authentic, uncharted version of leadership. He wants to show up courageously but isn’t sure how to navigate the doubts and noise in his head.

Frequently asked questions
I’m very busy right now. How will I make time to benefit from the 6-week course?
Life is busy. We’ve designed the course in a way that you can simply plug in & plug out. Our training content will come in bit-size and various formats (e.g. video, audio, reading material) to allow for an easy and flexible learning experience.
You’ll gain access to each week’s training content 5-7 days in advance, to allow you enough time to go through it.
Going through the training content is not mandatory, but is recommended to enrich your experience.
What is the focus of the live calls?
The focus of the live calls is on the practice of “waysfinding”.
Each call will start off with a frame that links the weekly training material to the topic we’re discussing. Each call will include a somatic & embodiment practice to get out of our “heads” and into our bodies. There will be lots of space for questions, reflections & mutual learnings.
How much time should I put aside for the course?
To get the most out of the course, you will need to allocate around 3-4 hours each week for the 6 weeks.
This includes the weekly live session (90 min) and POD call (60 min).
How will I access the course?
Once you’ve enrolled, you will be emailed access to our Waysfinder space hosted in a private online hub. From there, you will be able to access all course material and calls.
What is a POD?
Apart from a weekly live session with Sonja & Mirjam, you’ll work in small groups (=POD) with participants from around the world to give and receive support. They’re self-organising and a great addition to your learning experience.
How interactive is it?
As much as you want it to be! Apart from the weekly live sessions, you’ll take part in a self-organising POD that meets weekly.
