Speaking
I believe people have more potential than they realize. I want to inspire and help people to become empowered to achieve this potential. I like to do this in the form of speaking on a stage. Because I think it is a strong medium to inspire and motivate people. There is something magical that happens in a room when they get sucked into a story. It makes people think about their own story.
I always make sure my speeches are rewritten for the audience, so they can get the right experience. And my mission every time I speak is to leave the audience thinking, but above all to motivate and inspire them to find their personal power and reach their full potential.
As a speaker, I get hired for events, seminars, by companies and more. Depending on duration, location, personalization and the subject of the speech, my rate is between €500,- and €1000,- (not including travel expenses.)
What I Speak About
I have a different subject I talk about. All come from my own personal experience and research. Of course, I can also customize a speech.
Power & Potential
I like to share tips from the expertise that I have gained through the experiences in my life, and studying topics such as: self-development, self-confidence, success and mindset. For example, how you can increase your self-confidence and deal with limiting thoughts, find your passion and set achievable goals.
Phoenix People
I believe there is power in speaking about challenges, setbacks and other difficult aspects of life. That is why I share my story about my depression and sexual abuse. I think we are so much more than what we’ve been through. I hope to inspire my audience with the idea: What you’ve been through can make you stronger. I like to share how to deal with difficulty and go from victim to victor.
Mindset
I have been an entrepreneur now for 5 years and I only achieved my wins because of the work that I do on my mindset. We only go as far as our mindset is. Also, as a coach, I help people with their mindset. You can think of subjects like how our inner world creates our outer world and how to have a positive mindset.

What they say about me.
I got to know Iris as a driven and friendly person who likes to support others in special circumstances. She would like to use her knowledge and experience to discuss difficult topics. In that role, Iris provided a workshop for students and that was very much appreciated.
Iris has been hired by me for the last few years as a motivational speaker at my elections. The way she speaks is very gentle and that everyone can persuade everyone through her way and tone of speech.
I got to know Iris as a speaker at the Mister international election. Iris shared her story for this group of men. Iris is a very good, soothing speaker, what she says is straight from the heart. She shares her story with the group after which the group gets a more emotional bond with each other. Do you want to be motivated, overcome obstacles, share your story? I can confidently recommend Iris as a speaker.
My mission when I speak is to leave the listener motivated and inspired to go out there and make the life they dream of.
Some examples
- Why my depression the best thing is that ever happened to me.
I was depressed at the age of 21. This because of multiple traumas. It was a difficult time when I lost my love for life and I isolated myself socially. But my depression is also one of the best things that happened to me because it made me stronger. I was forced to rebuild my life and find out who I was and what I wanted. The best thing about having almost nothing in your life is that you can build it up the way you want from scratch. I talk about the effects of depression, my experience, how I overcame it and what I learned from it. - How you can find your Personal Power and make the life you dream of.
We all have an inner flame, our confidence and passion. I talk about how you can find and use this inner flame. I also tell about my own experiences in which I overcame my insecurity and found my passion. For example, I talk about the power of stepping out of your comfort zone and the effects of a good mentality and how you can get there. - Your life is made in your brain.
Science had proven it. what happens inside your brain, impacts your experiences in your life. Your inner world makes your outer world. I speak about the science of the placebo effect, the locus of control and vibrations and how you can use it to work for you. I also discuss my own experiences with this, such as how I used it to become an international model. - How I regained my feminine power after sexual abuse.
I was sexually abused at the age of 4. It strongly impacted me, especially at a later age. It made me very insecure and when I became sexually active I was afraid of my own feelings of lust. This had a big effect on my relationships and caused me to cross my boundaries several times. But by finding my own personal power I found my femininity and who I am as a woman. I speak about the impact of sexual abuse, my own experience and the way out of the trauma. - Why and how setbacks make you stronger.
We all go through tough times in life, but with the right mindset and help, you can come out stronger than before. I tell you about my own experiences, experiences of other people and the benefits of resilience. For example, resilience makes you more self-confidence and gives you personal strength. I will tell you why and how this can be done.
