Work and Wonder With Me

Let’s work together.

About Me

I’m Nadia von Holzen. I am a facilitator, group process designer, collaboration coach, and thinking partner based in the Netherlands. I’m also a Street Wisdom wanderer, blogger, dog walker, cyclist, late-blooming artist, path-finder, journaler, doodler — and always, a learner.

I’m passionate about the quiet power of conversations and collaboration—how they flow, pause, spark insights, and create the conditions for people to connect, learn, and innovate together. This can happen in a workshop room, around a coffee table, during a walking meeting, or while exploring with Street Wisdom.

I’m Curious

I love creative challenges. Whether it’s shaping a process that helps a group talk about what truly matters, or capturing reflections in a short blog post, I’m drawn to discovery. I love wandering down new walking paths and bringing ideas to life with color, paper, and a sense of fun.

I’m an Explorer

People often tell me I bring energy and encouragement. At heart, I’m still a teacher (my very first profession): I find delight in learning alongside others, puzzling through confusion, and guiding groups to find their own way forward. I don’t come with ready-made answers. I believe in iteration, trying things out, and discovering new ways as we go.

I’m an Optimist

I choose to see possibility. Change is a constant — and a chance to reflect, reinvent, and grow. Sometimes transformation comes in bold moves; often, it’s in the quiet shifts and small adjustments. I cherish the in-between spaces — liminal moments where something beautiful can emerge.


My Offer to You

My purpose is to inspire and challenge people to creatively make space for more human, healthy, and happy ways of working and living.

Through Learning Moments, I offer three core learning experiences that help individuals and organizations reflect, rethink, and change their practices.

I host spaces for authentic conversations and exploration, where reflection, connection, stillness, and insight unfold naturally. You’re invited to slow down, listen deeply, and share what’s real.

Feeling curious? You’re warmly invited to experience Street Wisdom or join an Unhurried Conversation — both are free and open to anyone.

I work in facilitation, knowledge sharing, and learning design—mainly with social purpose organizations and governments. Your idea and intention is my starting point: I help shape the structure to move toward it. I’m also a sparring partner and method coach if you’re looking to facilitate and design your own sessions with more clarity and confidence.

Liberating Structures are simple facilitation methods that transform how people interact and work together. They open up new possibilities—helping teams collaborate more effectively while providing individuals with tools for reflection and growth.

I offer learning spaces where you and your team can explore these practical, accessible techniques. You’ll build a personalized repertoire from the Liberating Structures toolkit, enhancing inclusion, adaptability, and engagement. These methods are also valuable for your personal use, supporting your self-reflection and planning.


Why Work with Me?

With years of experience supporting NGOs, foundations, UN agencies, governments, networks and education institutions around the world, I bring deep process knowledge and a warm, reflective approach to collaboration. Since founding Learning Moments in 2016, my mission has been to support teams and networks in finding new, human-centered ways to connect and create change.
