Career & Identity Coach

Career & Identity Coach

You moved. You adapted. You kept going.

And somewhere along the way, you lost the thread back to yourself.

Maybe work feels uninspiring despite years of experience.

Maybe you’re sending applications and getting nowhere.

Maybe you arrived here full of plans… and now you’re not sure who you are anymore, beyond your partner’s relocation or your last job title.

That’s not failure. It’s what happens when you’ve adapted, again and again, without ever stopping to ask if it still fits.

I’m Marie Dewulf… and I’ve lived this.

Thirteen moves across five countries. I know what it feels like to start over, to achieve everything you were supposed to achieve, and still feel like you’ve lost yourself somewhere along the way.

Since 2005, I’ve coached over 500 professionals from more than 80 nationalities through relocation, burnout, boreout, redundancy… and the harder question underneath all of it: who am I now?

I work with people who are:

  • Rebuilding after a move… qualified and experienced, but struggling to make it translate here.
  • Burned out or switched off… running on empty, or disconnected from work that once meant something.
  • Navigating redundancy… not wanting to rush into the next available role, but needing to figure out what actually fits.
  • Carrying the quiet question… I’ve achieved a lot. So why does something still feel off?

How I work with you:

I don’t start with your CV. I start with you.

Because after years of adapting to new countries, cultures, and expectations, most people don’t need a better CV. They need to hear themselves again.

Through my Career Identity Alignment Method™, I work with you in four steps: reconnecting with who you are today, getting clear on what you genuinely want, testing that direction before you commit, and rebuilding your story and confidence to make your move.

You’re not starting over. You’re starting with everything you’ve survived.

Sessions are 1:1, over 3 to 6 months, in English, French, or Dutch… with WhatsApp and email support between sessions. I also offer group workshops for organisations and expat programmes, including TU Delft’s Coming to Delft Service.
