ABOUT ME
From Silent Battles to Mind Mastery
My Story
My name is Freek Smit, and for most of my life, people saw the titles, the achievements, and the hard work…
But what they didn’t see was the quiet war happening in my own mind.
On the outside, I was successful.
I built strong careers in engineering, project management, and business.
I provided, achieved, and pushed myself harder than anyone expected.
But on the inside, I lived in what I call an “invisible prison.”
A place filled with thoughts like:
“You’re not enough.”
“You’re failing.”
“Play small so you don’t get hurt.”
These thoughts controlled my decisions, shaped my relationships, and silently drained my confidence.
I worked harder, achieved more, and kept pushing—hoping success would silence the voice in my head.
But it never did.
Then something shifted.
I reached a point where I knew:
If I didn’t master my mind, my mind would master me.
That turning point became the beginning of a completely new life.
My Breakthrough
I discovered the power of Neuro-Linguistics, neuroscience principles, and mindset transformation.
I learned why the brain repeats patterns…
how emotions hijack decisions…
and how to rewire limiting beliefs that keep people stuck for years.
For the first time, I understood myself.
And when I changed my inner world, everything in my outer world began to change too.
This journey didn’t just transform me—it became my mission.
Why I Do This Work
I know what it feels like to be successful on paper but empty inside.
I know what it feels like to lose yourself, to doubt yourself, to carry emotional battles you never talk about.
I know what it feels like to want more… but not know how to break the patterns keeping you where you are.
Today, I help people do what I had to do:
Master the mind first—so life can finally follow.

My journey has taken me through deep personal battles, breakthroughs, and reinvention. Today, I use those lessons to guide others to clarity, strength, and emotional freedom.
Education

Experience in Human Behaviour
Years of working with people in different industries have given me deep insight into how the mind works, why people get stuck, and what actually leads to transformation.
My hobbies
I have a deep passion for continuous growth, human behaviour, and hands-on creativity. When I’m not coaching or building programs, you’ll find me immersed in motorsport, restoring classic cars, or building race cars from the ground up. I love understanding how things work whether it’s the human mind or a powerful engine and bringing them to their full potential.
Coach and life coach
I help individuals break self-sabotage, build confidence, overcome emotional blocks, and create a clear roadmap for their goals and future.
My projects
From online courses to self-transformation programs, workshops, and one-on-one coaching—every project is designed to help people unlock the highest version of themselves.
I Help People Understand What’s Holding Them Back — and Break Through It
Your mind is the most powerful tool you will ever own. When it works against you, life becomes heavy. When it works for you, everything changes.
I help people reclaim their confidence, reprogram limiting beliefs, and create the life they were meant to live.
