Who am I when the role that defined me falls away?
Beatrix Knoll. Coach for women navigating the season after children.
Get in touchFrom the identity of parenthood to an identity that stands on its own.
The children have left home.
The rhythm that held everything is different now.
And a silence arrives that nobody prepared you for.
Who am I when the role that defined me falls away?
This is not less. What comes after the children is something of your own. Something that was always there but never had room.
Together with my husband Ivo, I lead the joint practice Knoll Coaching. Two coaches, two perspectives, one shared foundation: nearly 30 years of partnership and mutual professional reflection.

I am Bea. For over 25 years, I have immersed myself in personal development. Seminars, workshops, books. Everything that came my way, I tested in practice immediately. Not as theory. As life.
I was a bookseller, a wife, a mother. I managed schedules, resolved conflicts, built a family life that worked. I know the phase when everything revolves around the children. And I know the moment when they leave and a silence arrives that nobody prepared you for.
That is exactly where I work. With women who sense that after the children, what comes is not less. It is something of their own. Something that was always there but never had room.
For years I held everyone else's life together. Bea helped me find the one that was quietly mine. I did not start over. I finally started.Client of Bea Knoll
