What Is A Happy Self Newsletter

We are driven by one question:

What is a Happy Self?

Follow along and learn with me through my monthly newsletter.

Build Emotional Intelligence, navigate Relationships, and become an Agile Leader.

Concise & Actionable. Backed by the latest science.

Hello And Welcome. I'm Moritz.

I am a Business Coach and Medical Doctor obsessed with Emotions, Relation- and Leadership. 


"What Is A Happy Self?" is the fundamental question driving this platform and our work. I am a medical doctor, psychiatrist and psychotherapist, running my private practice in Cologne, Germany. 

I founded What Is A Happy Self to pursue my work as an executive business coach. In recent years, I helped CEOs, executives and entrepreneurs find solid, individual answers to this very question. These encounters and relationships have profoundly changed and enriched my thinking about mental health and leadership.

The result is this platform, along with Mastering Emotions - our business coaching program focused on Emotions and Relationships as the steadfast basis of modern and agile Leadership.

My client base consists of CEOs, mid-level executives, and entrepreneurs who are seeking personal development and have often reached a point where they recognize the need for meaningful and lasting change.





A Few Places Our Clients Work At

Mastering Emotions
is science-backed and battle-tested.

Mastering Emotions draws on my expertise at the intersection of three distinct paths: business coaching, clinical psychiatry & neuroscience as well as psychodynamics. My approach stands out through its integration of scientific, research-based knowledge with practical business coaching tools.
Unlike many business coaching programs that rely on generic solutions and unrealistic promises, I carefully select proven methods tailored to your specific needs and circumstances. This unique combination allows me to offer you the most effective support for your challenges.

Psychodynamics

What truly sets Mastering Emotions apart is the ability to  recognize subtle dynamics in the coaching process.

I coach beyond tools and methods. My psychodynamic perspective plays an important role.

Won through years of psychotherapy.

Business Coaching

Business Coaching, like comedy, is all about timing.

Mastering Emotions selects the best methods, tools & habit builders - at the right time.

Learned via Business Coaching Training at RAUEN Coaching GmbH - one of the leading business coaches in Germany.


Neuroscience

Mastering Emotions is backed by the latest neuroscience

We transfer recent findings into powerful tools & models.

"Doctors won't make you healthy.

Nutritionists won't make you slim.

Teachers won't make you smart.

Gurus won't make you calm.

Mentors won't make you rich.

Trainers won't make you fit.

Ultimately, you have to take responsibility.

Save Yourself."

- Naval Ravikant.
