About Esther Jacobs
Author of 30 books, writing coach, and international speaker. They call me the ‘No Excuses Lady’ because I make things happen, no matter the circumstances.
I raised 16 million euros for charity, survived on a deserted island during Survivor, traveled to over 100 countries, and was expelled from the Netherlands for traveling too much… I stepped out of the system and discovered ultimate freedom.
I want you to experience that freedom too. I help you work smarter, so you have more time for what truly matters.
Uncertainty has become my comfort zone. Read my story and discover how I can help you turn your dreams into reality.

Landed! – Inspiration shot February 2026
I have finally landed at my destination, Highden Temple; the Mystery School. My suitcase is unpacked. And for the first time in 20 years, I am staying in one place for six weeks. But before that, I had exhausted myself with an absurd travel schedule. Sounds familiar? In this Inspiration Shot I share insights about having your feet on the ground, practical tips for the Pacific in case you ever want to travel this way, and I invite you to reflect on this question: Where are you still overcompensating before allowing yourself to rest?
Mystery School: inside a temple training
What makes someone leave everything behind, buy a round the world ticket, and enter a six week temple training in New Zealand without fully knowing what will happen there? This is not a travel story. It is not even a spiritual story. It is the story of a calling. Of clearing old layers. Of moving from survival into something deeper. And of stepping through gates that might protect sanity in a world that feels increasingly insane.
Samoa (2026)
Samoa is incredibly lush, green and affordable. It feels undiscovered and is unbelievably beautiful. It feels like the Caribbean thirty years ago, before mass tourism and polished resorts took over. The islands are volcanic and wild. Green everywhere. Color everywhere. Life everywhere.But nature is not what steals the show here. The people do.
