Sessions

As an elite athlete, physiotherapist and personal trainer, Nouchka understands better than most what health and vitality can help people achieve. She believes that vitality forms the foundation of every success. In an interactive way, she shares how taking good care of both body and mind can provide a strong starting point for lasting performance.

Whether in the boxing ring or in business, Nouchka believes that a number of fundamental building blocks are essential for success. The same crucial steps apply when working towards strong results. In The Perfect Game Plan, she shares how she puts these principles into practice and offers practical tips that audiences can apply themselves.

Essential to achieving any goal is surrounding yourself with the right people and then learning how to work together effectively. This was crucial in the boxing ring, but also during Nouchka’s television adventures. She gained valuable lessons from Special Forces VIPS and from the group dynamics in Expeditie Robinson. By incorporating these experiences, she makes her keynote not only valuable, but also surprising and engaging.

Perhaps Nouchka’s favourite topic, because mindset is often the decisive factor between success and failure. It is a broad subject on which she has a wealth of insights to share. Performing under pressure, maintaining focus and delivering in decisive moments are essential in the boxing ring, but equally relevant in the boardroom.

Showing courage, building confidence and dealing with setbacks and change are challenges every team encounters. Nouchka addresses these themes through compelling stories and practical tools that audiences can apply immediately.
