re:studio is the home of robbert maruanaija—a space born from my journey of transformation. After decades in high-pressure industries, i realized that the biggest obstacle to growth is often ourselves. Our minds, designed to predict and protect, can trap us in cycles of overthinking, creating stories based on past experiences to justify why we shouldn't change, hereby limiting our ability to act in the present.
Change can feel daunting because we find safety in the familiar, even when it no longer serves us. Instead of trying to reshape the external world, my coaching focuses on cultivating inner safety—first by coming to terms with the reality of the present, and from there, taking meaningful steps toward growth.
At re:studio, i help individuals and teams to get out of their heads and reconnect with their intuition, unlearn limiting beliefs, and align with their authentic selves. It’s a space to slow down, reflect, and uncover the answers that already lie within, creating lasting change rooted in clarity.

The next step is always within reach, yet we create stories based on past experiences to justify why we shouldn’t take it.

the present is always where change begins
the present is always where change begins
We live in a world that pulls us in every direction but the one that matters most—here. We are constantly moving, yet often lost in thoughts of the past or projections of the future, rarely grounded in the reality of now.
At re:studio we focus on unlearning limiting beliefs, helping you identify and dissolve outdated narratives that shape your behavior, health, and performance. By shifting you from head to heart, we guide you out of overthinking and into intuitive action, where clarity and confidence arise. Through reconnection—balancing consciousness and unconsciousness—you’ll experience growth that feels authentic and lasting. Using methods and tools like systemic work, voice dialogue, and reflective exercises, we unlock deeper self-awareness to empower meaningful transformation.
A place to come to your senses, to pause, reflect, and realign. To unlearn and grow. Because the answers you seek have always been within—you simply need to listen.

1986
I was born in Amsterdam as the second son to a Dutch mom and Moluccan dad. Growing up with a bicultural background gave me the opportunity to see the world from different perspectives. It shaped how i approach life and challenges, teaching me to adapt, connect with others, and find creative solutions.
02
2002
At age 16 i joined professional football club Heerenveen. I was never the biggest talent of my teams, yet i was always made captain by the managers. In hindsight i see that my biggest quality was to keep the team together and motivated.
03
2009
After achieving what i thought was my lifelong dream of becoming a professional football player, i realized it wasn’t truly my dream—it was society’s. Feeling disconnected in a high-pressure, superficial industry, i made the decision to follow my heart and start over in New York City. An unlikely decision for many, yet intuitively the only right one.
04
2012
Working as a creative director in Amsterdam for almost a decade i had the opportunity to collaborate with some of the most talented teams in the industry and work on global brands like Heineken and Netflix. But it wasn’t about producing great work to me—it was about helping individuals tap into their full potential in an environment where they felt safe to explore, take risks, and push their creativity to new heights.

Becoming a parent has a way of making you question everything. The birth of my daughter was like holding up a mirror to my life, forcing me to reflect on who i was and what i wanted to pass on to her. I realized i couldn’t tell her to follow her purpose if i wasn’t following mine. After years of long hours in stressful environments, pursuing careers that didn’t align with who i truly was, her arrival became my turning point. She made me see the importance of living authentically, of building a life rooted in purpose. This reflection pushed me to finally embrace the work that had been calling me for years. I transitioned into coaching, diving into studies that allowed me to connect with my own purpose and guide others to do the same.

the present
I’m now fully immersed in the work that aligns with my values. Next to re:studio, i’m one of the trainers of the intuitive coaching course with IMC Mensontwikkeling, guiding others to become a coach as well. My curiosity makes sure that i keep learning and exploring and i'm really excited to see how life will unfold in the coming days, months and years.
