“Esther helped me simplify; I had a grand plan in my head, and I need to start with smaller steps.
And above all, work with what I already have; pick the low-hanging fruit.”Hanke de Kock
“I applied what I learned during the workshop yesterday, and it yielded immediate results. And you know what?
It felt incredibly satisfying! Despite my minor resistance… and it’s truly motivating.”Elke Frommhagen
“It’s amazing how Esther manages to convey inspiration even through digital means.
Truly remarkable!”Janine Meins
“Right from the start, Esther has steered me onto a different path than the one I was on. It’s a bit confusing,
but that’s okay because that’s exactly what I was looking for. This is immensely helpful to me.”Lydia van Oudenaren
“Working with Esther is a party! I love her support, speed and out of the box thinking. I always feel the invitation to colour outside the lines, to go one step further, and, above all, to keep seeing my bigger picture. That is where the magic lies for me.”

More efficiency in your inbox? Save 5 hours per week with ChatGPT Voice Prompts
Hoeveel tijd en energie gaat er in het beantwoorden van e-mails zitten? In deze column vertelt AI-expert Esther Jacobs hoe het sneller, makkelijker én zelfs leuker kan. Zelf bespaart ze 5 uur per week met deze aanpassing. Zodra ik een e-mail lees, weet ik eigenlijk meteen wat ik wil antwoorden. Maar het typen en het antwoord netjes maken voelt vaak tijdrovend. Niet alleen omdat typen langzamer gaat dan denken, maar ook omdat ik soms even afstand wil nemen om professioneel te blijven. Dat betekent echter dat ik later diezelfde e-mail weer moet lezen, het antwoord opnieuw moet formuleren en het uiteindelijk nog moet uittypen. Gelukkig kan dat tegenwoordig anders!
How I wrote a book in one week with ChatGPT
Writing a book in one week might sound like a daunting task, but with the right approach, it becomes more achievable than you'd think. I recently wrote a business book for a client in just seven days, using my Reverse Writing methodology and ChatGPT. Along the way, I learned some valuable lessons that anyone can benefit from—even if you're not writing a book.
My 13 most memorable speaking gigs
I have been a motivational speaker for more than 25 years. Each of the 1000 keynotes and 2 TEDx speeches was special. Either because of the location (Qatar, South Africa, Lithuania, New York, in a zoo, in the money museum during my collection of €16 of foreign coins for charity) or because of the special connection I had with the audience (entrepreneurs, travellers, professional women, veiled or not). I treasure the messages people sent me afterwards; how my story changed their lives and motivated them to quit their jobs, become entrepreneurs or make another important life decision after hearing my talk. Some events stood out. In this blog, I share some of my most memorable events, bloopers, and some tips for speakers at the end.
