Create a Life
that feels truly yours

For women who want more freedom in life, work and relationships—and are ready to discover what's really holding them back.

You help others. But who is supporting you?

You spend your time guiding, teaching, leading or holding space for others.

You create your own work. Your impact that you want to have.

You help others navigate challenges. You support their growth.

And yet, when it comes to your own life, work or business, you find yourself facing the same struggles again and again.

You know you are capable of more.

More visibility, confidence, freedom, impact.

Yet something keeps holding you back.

You second-guess and doubt yourself.
You hold back your voice.
You overthink decisions.
You work harder than you need to.
You know there is another level available to you—but you can’t seem to fully step into it.

Not because you lack knowledge.

Not because you need another strategy.

But because there are often deeper patterns shaping how you think, lead, show up and grow.

That’s the work we do together.

I see the patterns you can't yet see. Together, we uncover what is shaping your life, work and growth.

This is the real work

My role is not to give you more answers.

It is to help you see what has been shaping your choices, your confidence, your visibility and your growth.

To create a space where you can meet yourself honestly.

Where the noise becomes calmer.
Where old assumptions can be questioned.
And where you can hear your own voice again.

This is not for quick fixes or surface-level change.

It is way deeper.

Revealing the patterns that keep repeating.
The stories you have been carrying without realizing it.
The fears that have been influencing your decisions, leadership and work.

Because what holds us back rarely starts where we think it does.

And when we begin to see what is really there, something shifts.

Not because of another strategy.

But because you are no longer disconnected from yourself.

That is where real clarity in you can open.

Not the clarity that comes from thinking harder.
The clarity that comes from finally hearing yourself.

Fully Alive by Fran Pretsch - Franziska Pretsch - Coach - golden graphic

Here is where it begins — not when you have it figured out, but when you stop running & start meeting yourself. I know. Because I lived it.

I know this work through 20 years of guiding people across cultures, countries, and life changes.

But more than that – I know it because I lived it. Fully. With everything it takes.

Most life changes don’t last. Not because people don’t try hard enough. But because they never go deep enough.

New habits. Better communication. Positive thinking. And after a while – the same repeats. The same doubts. The same fears. The same patterns. Back to what feels familiar. Back to what feels safe.

Because real change doesn’t start with your behavior. It starts with your roots.

The truth underneath the roles you play. The expectations you carry. The fears you have been avoiding for years. What you learned to be – and how it is still influencing your life right now.

Until you go there – every step forward will bring up the same deep fears. The same doubts. And it will feel too risky to fully live.

The answer is not a better plan. Not waiting until you feel ready. Not thinking harder.

You need someone who goes to your foundation with you. Who sees your unique roots. Who hears what you cannot yet hear in yourself. Who holds space as you honestly face how you feel. And who walks with you as you choose – maybe for the first time – yourself.

That is what I do.

And when you make decisions from that deep inner knowing – the changes last. Because the life you are building is aligned with who you truly are.

It doesn’t matter if it looks different from how others live.

It is yours. What is important to you. That is all that matters.

I know what it costs to stay. And I know what it takes to actually face your own truth & make the changes.

My Story

Hi, I’m Franziska Maria — short Fran.

I am a German Mentor and Ultra Runner – living between cultures, between worlds, between what was and what is possible.

I have rebuilt my life more than once. From burnout to my own truth. From Bavaria to America. From what was expected to what is truly mine.

This is not what I teach. This is what I live.

If you want to read more about my own Story & how I work, click below.

“There is much more peace in me. I truly know working with you has helped me tremendously.

There is something about you that makes me feel comfortable & you are very easy to talk to.

I can tell that you sincerely listen to what I say. And I know others feel that as well. A true gift!”

David

“I always had a fear that something was wrong with me. That I needed to be different .

Now I know I can just be myself. And I know that this is absolutely ok. In fact it’s needed.

I was able to trust Fran and open up to her. And now I am ready to move forward with my life.”

“Your Questions helped me reflect on things I hadn’t given thought to for over a decade, and your sharing of your stories, experience and wisdom helped me improve my thinking, increase my clarity and strengthen my sense of self. 
 
I always knew I was in a safe space and could ultimately trust in you as my guide and that made it incredibly comfortable to be open, and to really try to go deeper in myself, thinking about what is really going on and where to go next. It was all incredibly helpful and just what I needed.”
