What People Are Saying
Leadership, Languages & Emotional Well-being
"[The students] were all very positive! They said they felt a better connection with you in 20 minutes than they do with some teachers in 3 years. They also thought you were very kind and made them feel at ease. You also spoke in a very pleasant way and took notice of them, even if they didn't always understand everything. "
— Feedback from Miss Elzinga on behalf of Yr 10 Sports Students at KTA Wemmel, Belgium
"They thought the presentation about London was very interesting [..] it would be nice if they could learn more about London, but I think the solution here is [for us to invite you to deliver] a 2 hours/class. One hour is just too short because [your] introduction part is very important for the students to feel comfortable. "
— Margriet Elzinga, English & Dutch Teacher, KTA Wemmel, Belgium
Workshops, Conferences & Keynote
“What an absolute treat it was to meet Hyacinth today at the Women in Tech conference of Meet Berlage in Amsterdam. Her workshop on inner leadership was the highlight of my day, and would have still been too short had it lasted 3 or 4 hours. She has incredible people skills (and an awesome memory, remembering everyone's name), is very funny and engaging, and doesn't ever come across as preachy when she's teaching skills and knowledge. Rather she comes across as very authentic, intelligent, and kind, and she's a great instructor.”
— Wesley Pechler - Freelance Copywriter at Urban Heart
“I experienced a very inspiring workshop from Hycy Jones [How to find Your Inner Axis & Honour Your Elemental Nature]. It was a workshop were we discovered more about ourselves and each other. Such an enlightening experience! Just talking with Hycy makes you realize not only her power and strength but also that of yourself. Thank you Hycy for being the instrument you are in this world.”

Working with Hycy is like a powerful rebirth—becoming a stronger, more aware version of myself. Her natural, caring support helps me accept and let go of my shadows, recognise my strengths, and connect with my true self, where I feel love and joy in the present moment.
