I live in Victoria, BC. I am inspired by the bioregional way of living and am grateful to live in such a beautiful place here on Vancouver Island. I want to build a flourishing and resilient life for myself and my community, in balance with the natural world we depend upon.

Annelieke Verkerk
My personal calling is to champion inclusive and regenerative living systems across all scales. Over the years I have devoted myself to supporting bioregioning and other regenerative / sustainable projects and initiatives around the globe and to supporting the inner development and resilience of change-makers, communities, teams and organizations.
I facilitate Regenerative Constellations on environmental, social, economic, organizational, ancestral and leadership / personal issues on all continents, live and online. ‘Constellating Cascadia – supporting bioregioning across all scales’ is the project I want to devote myself to in 2024/2025.
My support of bioregional and other regenerative initiatives comes from a deep sense of being in service to the earth and the common good – my motivation since I was 16 years of age – and from an intention to give back, so all my Regenerative Constellation work and Human Potential coaching of changemakers around the globe I offer for free.
As an international coach for leaders, change-makers, teams and organizations I am passionate about developing conscious, embodied and regenerative leadership, working with (eco)systemic dynamics across all scales and facilitating transformation and culture change.
Besides 20+ years of (eco)systemic coaching education and experience, I bring 15 years of experience in staff and leadership positions with the University of Groningen and Dutch Government.
I am nurtured by nature, art and poetry and I love to dance, also with the paradoxes of life.
Please reach out to me at anneliekeverkerk@gmail.com . My new website is under construction.
