I’ll be honest — I feel entirely disoriented by what’s happening in the USA. And I’m not even American. I do personal development, coaching certification, and provide NLP training in the USA for a living. I should be an expert in navigating changes.
In many ways, I feel like Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, the NASA astronauts who got stuck in space for 286 days. When they left, Joe Biden was president. They came back, and everything was different. I do not know which side of the aisle they vote on, but that’s beside the point. Everything feels different. Two completely separate realities now exist, depending on your news source.
My European family and friends ask me:
“Is it safe?”
“Do Americans even get along anymore?”
“What about your students crossing the American border?”
“Do non-American students still want to book an NLP Training in the USA?”
“Are Americans even spending money?”
“Is your insurance up to date?” (Okay, granted — that last one was my mother.)
Here’s the truth: from the Netherlands, it looks like America is on fire. And I don’t just mean the wildfires near our Los Angeles training location. For our September training, we actually moved to a luxury villa in the Hollywood Hills with stunning city views — a once-in-a-lifetime treat for our students. (Who’s coming?)
But every time I scroll, it’s another meltdown — someone freaking out over what DOGE is doing, a new law being passed, commentary from Canadians, Greenlanders, or EU citizens about crossing the border. I see extreme posts like:
“I will no longer talk to anyone who voted for X.”
It’s a lot.
People who used to be calm are now doomscrolling until 2 a.m., snapping at baristas for putting oat milk in their coffee instead of almond.
I want to say, “Calm down. Let’s all get along.”
But the anger is real.
So is the fear.
And the divide.
But what have I consistently witnessed inside my NLP training in the USA and around the world?
That’s where something unreal — and honestly, kind of magical — happens.
In the NLP Training in the USA, Everyone's Just... Human
I’ve watched Republicans and Democrats sit next to each other during the NLP training in the USA — not just being civil, but laughing together. I’ve seen a Catholic priest, a corporate lawyer, a stay-at-home mom, and a sex worker do life-changing exercises — not because they agree politically, but because they’re working on themselves. Not their talking points. Themselves.
And you know what happens when people finally tune into their own hopes, dreams, wounds, and needs — their humanity?
Everything else fades into the background.
I see it every single time.
Race? Doesn’t matter.
Gender? Irrelevant.
Political party? No one even asks.
Childhood trauma? Sadly, most people have some.
But that’s the point: the brain codes our pain the same way. And our hopes too.
We all want well-being. Safety. Security. Meaning. Love. Kindness. Gratitude.
And we are fiercely committed when it comes to our children.
Why It's So Hard Right Now (And Why It's Not Just You)
Here are a few numbers that speak louder than any political rant — and these are from 2023, which feels like a lifetime ago:
- 73% of Americans report feeling stressed about the future of the country (APA, 2023).
- 1 in 3 adults say politics has damaged relationships with friends or family.
- 62% feel “exhausted“ by the constant stream of political news.
- And according to Pew Research, more than half of U.S. adults reported experiencing anxiety or depression last year — much of it tied to uncertainty, division, and financial pressure.
Americans are living in a pressure cooker.
And people from around the world are being pulled into the chaos — or desperately trying to jump off the ride.
People are snapping, hiding, fighting.
But come on — isn’t there a third option? A better one?
What If Cultivating Emotional Intelligence and Taking NLP Training in the USA is the Answer?
What if this moment — yes, this messy, chaotic one — is actually the perfect time to use NLP, personal development, and the positive sciences to grow?
Let’s cultivate more emotional intelligence. We’ll all be better for it. (And yes, NLP happens to be one of the most powerful tools for developing emotional intelligence.)
Isn’t now the time to ask:
- What is my purpose?
- Who do I want to become?
- How do I increase my positive emotions, engagement, relationships, meaning, achievements — the cornerstones of well-being — across all areas of life?
No matter what side of the divide you live on, isn’t that the goal?
Not just for Americans, but also for Europeans, Russians, Ukrainians, Palestinians, Israelis, Jews…
(And trust me — here in the Netherlands, we have our own nonsense. I’m honestly tired of the European moral high ground. It’s not all roses and sunshine here either. Mostly just rain. And yes, tulips.)
What If This Is the Moment You Finally Get Unstuck?
When people walk into our NLP Training in the USA— whether it’s in Miami, or Los Angeles— something amazing happens. The same is equally true in our Amsterdam, Mexico and Bali NLP Training.
The masks come off.
Not because I tell them to.
But because, for the first time in a long time, they feel safe enough to drop them.
They realize they’re not alone — in their anxiety, their relationship struggles, their difficult childhoods, their stress at work, or their 2 a.m. panic scrolls.
They start to see that the real fight — whether it’s with their partner, their boss, their in-laws, or a stranger online — isn’t about that person.
It’s about how their brain is wired to protect, defend, and lash out.
But once they understand that?
They can rewire it.
Change it.
Grow from it
NLP Training in the USA Isn't Just About Communication. It's About Finding Your Way in the Chaos & Reconnect
If you’re not familiar with NLP (neuro-linguistic programming), it’s a practical toolkit that helps people understand how their mind works — and actually do something with that understanding. It’s based on studying successful people from around the world.
Want to stop being triggered by every political conversation?
Stop spiraling about the economy at 3 a.m.?
Stop feeling stuck and start creating something meaningful?
NLP helps you shift your emotional state, break old patterns, and create better outcomes — not in a “woo-woo“ way, but by actually retraining your thoughts, language, and behavior.
And here’s the part most people don’t expect:
It doesn’t just make you feel better.
It makes you a better partner. A better parent. A better leader. A (better) coach and mentor. A better version of you — one who can navigate these times with grace and purpose.

Why a 15-Day Immersive NLP Training in the USA Changes Everything
Sure, you could watch some YouTube videos.
But if you’ve ever tried meditating for 10 minutes with a buzzing phone nearby, you know how far that’ll get you.
Our 15-day NLP immersion is different.
It’s a full reset.
You step away from the chaos and into a space designed for deep reflection, emotional clarity, and personal transformation.
And you won’t do it alone.
You’ll be in a room full of humans just like you — who, despite what the headlines say, share your fears, your longings, and your capacity for growth.
In that room, there are no Republicans. No Democrats. No heroes or villains.
Just humans.
Humans who want to:
- Feel grounded and emotionally in control
- Communicate with empathy and confidence
- Understand their triggers (and not be ruled by them)
- Build a life and career with more clarity, meaning, and alignment
- Maybe even become certified coaches and help others navigate this crazy world
What's Next?
This part’s up to you.
You can keep scrolling.
Keep feeling torn up inside about the state of things.
Keep wrestling with that quiet, nagging feeling that you were meant for something more — but aren’t sure what.
Or… you can step out of the noise.
Step into a space where people listen.
Heal.
Grow.
Change.
