Just a good conversation.
I work from home in Bladel, and that shapes how we stay in touch. Below you can read what works fastest and what a meeting looks like in practice.
Honest up front
saves disappointment later.
Since early 2026 I've worked from home in Bladel. That's where I build the projects for clients, and the keynotes and projects that go with them. A few things to know in advance:
Ideally you come and see me in Bladel. I then have one to two hours. For me that's the most comfortable way: you get my full attention in a setting I can sustain.
Meeting somewhere else is possible, by appointment. For keynotes, specific events or projects where it really adds something, I plan ahead. Long days on the road aren't a given this year — so we'll make it a good one.
Video calls are always possible. For strategic projects, follow-ups or a first introduction, that works fine. From home, with the same attention.
How to reach me, fastest first:
- Your request at intake.theuws.com — type it, say it or show it. Then I have the whole story straight away.
- WhatsApp — often a reply the same day.
- Phone — it's on, but while I'm giving care I often don't pick up. Can't reach me? Send a WhatsApp. I rarely listen to voicemail.
- Email — that goes to my personal assistant, who picks it up and checks with me; on the phone and WhatsApp you get me directly.
After 8 pm it's quiet time at home. Messages arrive, answers come the next day.
Fastest route first — I reply personally.
Clear and no hassle
Plan a discovery session below, or send a WhatsApp if you'd rather talk it through first. Requests and messages come straight to me. What fits, I do. What doesn't, I'll say — and then we'll think together about where you can go instead.
Your way.
Type it, say it or show it.
The old contact form has been replaced by something better: an intake where you can tell me what you're looking for in your own way. Type it, say it, record a video or drag in a sketch — anything goes, and combining them too.
While you type, an AI thinks along with you: it sums up what I've understood and asks at most three short follow-up questions. That saves us both an introductory call in which we'd go through those questions anyway.
Once you've sent it, you get your own dashboard where you can see what happens to your request — and where my reply appears. That dashboard is Kompas, the same portal my clients use throughout a whole project. So you see straight away how I work.
Takes a few minutes. You'll hear from me within a day.
Clear, honest, no hassle
WhatsApp usually the same day
Mail goes to my personal assistant, and that can take a week. If you call or message me, you get me myself — usually the same day.
Honest if it isn't a fit
If I'm not the right person for your question, I'll say so. I'd rather point you somewhere else honestly than make promises I can't keep.
Quiet evenings after 8 pm
Messages after eight arrive, but my reply comes the next day. Care at home and peace at home come first — that's part of it.
