Why

How to
Work with Jan
“Kayaking the entire coast of Norway has taught me a thing or two about what it takes to succeed, while simultaneously enjoying your journey.”
– Jan Lorentzen
Jan’s journey
Towards ‘Success’
Kayaking solo the entire coast of Norway from Sweden to the Russian border was a peak experience in my life, inspired by my love of the ocean. At the tender age of 11 I was trusted to skipper a tiny sailboat on a multi-day trip with friends, followed years later by skippering a sailing yacht across the Atlantic.
As a teenager I experienced how similar we all are despite ethnic and cultural differences, when I spent two years together with students from some eighty nations at United World Colleges in Wales.
Later, after years of studying, being elected president of the students union, and landing my dream job as product manager with a leading consumer brands company I thought I had achieved everything I had worked so hard for.
However, I nevertheless felt like a key piece was missing…
Jan’s journey
Towards Coaching
-Searching for that missing piece turned out to be the beginning of a life long path spurred by the universal question ‘Is this all there is?’. Along the way I trained as a meditation instructor, spent six months in a spiritual centre in India and facilitated in numerous personal development groups.
In the years to follow I learnt from leading teachers and trainers in the US, Europe and Asia. And the process of life long learning and refining my coaching skills continue till this day.
Today I live on the Lofoten islands, north of the polar circle, amidst powerful nature, midnight sun and northern lights. From here I offer you the most powerful coaching, backed by my 40 years of experience.
