Axelle Lourens

Human Design reader & coach

Here to help you live your most fulfilling life

Human Design is a holistic self-knowledge system to increase self-understanding and awareness. It shows you your qualities and pitfalls and in which way you navigate through life most easily. With the Lightship I make blueprint books, give one-on-one readings and integration sessions and organize inspiration workshops within companies to help teams work better together.

Progress Bar founder

Excited to discover and facilitate exchange of knowledge

Whether you need a fresh, compelling website, stunning brand photography, or expert-level graphic design, I bring a comprehensive skill set to each project.
