Successful in business. But Love hurts?

Ingeborg Mooiweer is an executive coach with 35 years of experience helping high-achieving executives break the patterns that make them brilliant at work and struggling at home.
She helps executives who have built everything they wanted, except a love life that works.

I grew up with a narcissistic mother. I didn't have language for it then, I just knew that love felt conditional, that being enough meant being safe, and that I learned to read rooms before I learned to trust people.
That pattern followed me into my career. And into my marriage.
I became exceptional at work. I built a practice, helped organisations, and earned the trust of C-suite executives across the world. Professionally, everything looked right.

But in the span of two and a half years, I lost seven people who mattered most to me. Grief upon grief, with no room to breathe. Those losses cracked something open and confirmed what I had been seeing for 35 years in my work: the patterns we develop in childhood to survive become the patterns that silently erode our closest relationships as adults.

I call them survival codes. For most high-achieving executives, one of three codes is running the show right now and they have no idea.

Thomas Addison

Not Just Talk! I have been there. Business Consulting Services for Growth Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA), and Duke MBA

Thomas Addison is an exit planning advisor, AI strategist, and serial business owner who has been on every side of the transaction table. He lost $1.55M on a business re-entry that looked right on paper — then used what he learned to acquire a garage door company, make money and sell it, execute a 2x exit on a sandwich franchise, and build a federal contracting company with a GSA Schedule and SDVOSB designation. The loss wasn't the end. It was the education that made everything else possible.Today Thomas holds the CEPA certification from the Exit Planning Institute, a Duke MBA, and a CISSP, and owns a commercial PCB repair company that runs without him — because he built it that way deliberately. He works with business owners $2M+ in enterprise value to close the operational and technology gaps suppressing their valuation before a sale, using AI tools he has built and deployed in live businesses. He speaks on exit readiness, the real cost of owner dependency, and how AI is changing what buyers actually pay for.

His fiction, essays, and journalism have appeared in The New York Times, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Fortune, and Entrepreneur, among other publications.
