Jasmin Matzakow:

Change Worker –

Artist, Lecturer and Coach.

I have been making art for 20 years, studied at two art schools and taught at art academies since of 2016. In 2023 I completed my coaching training at the Life Coach School and with Melissa Tiers. Like many artists, I have a scanner personality. I’m driven to learn and expand my knowledge.

I know what it means to immerse myself in artistic and creative processes, to get lost in them and to peel myself out again. At best, with new work that surprises me and with a strength that comes from deep within me.

I know the doubts that won't let go and the inner drive to keep going with my projects. I know what failure feels like, in all its drama and the exhausting daily grind. I know what success feels like, the great relief, the joy and the realisation that visibility can also be uncomfortable. As a teacher at an art academy and as a coach, I have already supported many people through these processes and now offer you my focused expertise with the coaching programme "The Stinging Nettle".
I have seen time and again how artists and creatives do not see themselves as entrepreneurs and only focus on their artistic freedom. Entrepreneurial freedom often takes a back seat, even though it is just as important. This is not out of ignorance, but because we have learnt it that way.

It's time to set this straight!
