I AM Ilse

Ilse was born with an artistic and sensitive soul. From an early age, she was quiet and observant, living in a world fuelled by artistic pursuits, a deep love for nature, and a thirst for higher knowledge.

​

Her multi-faceted passions evolved alongside her; from painter, to goldsmith, from stained glass artist to holistic designer. Along her journey, she embraced practices such as teaching kundalini yoga and diving into ancient wisdom. Like a true alchemist, Ilse has the remarkable ability to constantly transforming dust into gold – whether that be an experience, an object or a space.

​

At a young age, Ilse sensed society’s expectations pulling her in different directions. Determined to follow the calling of her own heart, she packed her backpack and allowed life to be her teacher. She travelled the world, living across continents – Asia, Oceania, and Africa – immersing herself in the richness and wisdom of various cultures. It became clear that Ilse is one who needs the freedom to dance to the rhythm of her own drum.

​

Of course, her journey hasn’t been without its challenges. In 2022, she faced a heartbreaking experience that, while traumatic, ultimately led her deeper into the path of shamanism, spiritual insights and sparked the beginning of a profound journey of self-discovery.

​

Now, as a mother to two daughters – one of whom remains deeply connected to her from the other realm – Ilse resides in Portugal. From her heart, she finds true joy in offering her unique gifts in service to others, bringing a little piece of heaven to earth.
