Isabel‘s journey started with a prophetic dream at the age of twelve. The German native tackled many obstacles in order to make her dream of speaking in front of thousands (in English) become a reality. Her biggest obstacle was learning to connect deeply with her Soul and her heart and to fully accept herself and her unique gifts as an Empath-Warrior™. She experienced rejection and betrayal, life-altering “failures”, and depression and anxiety. Isabel’s life is a beautiful reflection of how anyone can create a deep spiritual connection within themselves. By discovering and owning your unique superpower you are able to powerfully step into your mission.
Today Isabel Hundt is a successful Inspirational Speaker, Founder of the #ISeeUMovement, Sociologist, certified Transformation Coach working with Highly Sensitive Visionaries and World Changers aka Empath-Warriors™, Emotions Clearing Practitioner, published Author of The Power of Faith-Driven Success and 2x Amazon Bestselling Co-Author.
Isabel obtained her degree in Sociology/ Psychology at the University of Siegen in Germany and continues to be a student of life daily. Her expertise revolves around navigating your emotional world, the power of intuition and the importance of trust and perseverance in today’s society. Isabel has been featured on over 100 TV shows, well-known radio and podcast shows.
