Who is Erwin Wils?
I am a mindset coach and business strategist and I empower Tech experts to boost their business and themselves, transforming them into the person that achieves their ambitions, goals, and beyond. As a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering by education and certified professional hypnotherapist, master Soulkey therapist, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy) practitioner by training, I bring 25+ years of experience to show the tech-geeks, nerds, and other left-brained technical experts how they can use their expertise to make a positive impact in the world and make a good living doing it.
But I never intended to become an entrepreneur to be honest. After graduating from university in 1996, I got a job in the corporate world. My view has always been looking for new ways to add value. The common thread throughout my career was optimizing processes. That is what I love to do and every step I took in my career was more toward doing that fulltime.
In 2014, I thought to myself “You can optimize a process and have all the proof to validate that improvement, but when the people that are using the process don’t change, the process itself won’t change. So how do I get those people to change as well?” I discovered neurolinguistic programming (NLP), but I didn’t know what to expect from the training. I did some research on the Internet, came across hypnotherapy, and decided this was the training for me. After the first training weekend in March 2015, I was sold. I felt I had found my purpose; my way of making a positive impact. Everything I liked came together and I knew that I wanted to do this for a living someday. Back then, my view of “someday” was 5 to 10 years away.
Long story short, in September 2015 I registered my first company at the Chamber of Commerce and started charging for my sessions. By January 2016, I started working parttime to have more time to build my new hypnotherapy practice. By February 2017, I was fully self-employed. As a hypnotherapist, I helped my clients overcome all kinds of mindset challenges. I noticed they all had much more potential than they were using. So, that same year I changed my focus towards coaching and started to find my niche. I also decided to take my business international and applied for a coaching program. This program made a big difference. Due to my growth I got to share the stage with a lot of celebrities, met them backstage and I started to look at the world differently.
Finding a niche means narrowing down your target group. when I looked at my clientele, I noticed two groups: therapists and coaches on one side, and clients with a technical background on the other side. Since I have a technical education myself, know what kind of challenges they face and my 20 years in technical environments in the corporate world, it made total sense to me to focus on the Tech experts of this world. and that’s what I do. I transform the “geeks, nerds and other left-brained experts” in the world in all-round entrepreneurs that love to be on stage, share their message and make a positive impact in the world, delivering world-class services to their clients.
