Meet Roel Snieder

Roel Snieder is a licensed Freedom Coach and a teacher at heart. As a scientist, he worked for many years with people who tend to live in their head, relying on their analytical thinking. Since he does coaching sessions using a video link, he works with clients world-wide.

Roel has personally experienced the process of transformation to the fullness of living from the head and from the heart. Over the years he has counseled many people in this process and developed and taught classes on Wellness and on Science and Spirituality at an engineering college. He has extensive experience coaching professionals in education, science, or engineering.

Roel wrote a book on living a harmonious and fulfilling life for scientists and engineers, The Joy of Science: Seven Principles for Scientists Seeking Happiness, Harmony, and Success

Roel received the Beno Gutenberg Medal for his research from the European Seismological Society. He received the Outstanding Educator Award from the Society of Exploration Geophysicists, and the Ange Melagro Prize of the McBride Honors Program at the Colorado School of Mines for his outstanding class Science and Spirituality.

“Working with Roel has been a transformational experience, to say the least. I discovered many aspects of my personality that were holding me back both personally and professionally. His guidance has not only enhanced my professional capabilities but has also enriched my personal life in countless ways. Roel’s mentorship has been invaluable, and I am deeply grateful for the positive changes he has helped me achieve. Roel is an excellent scientist, a wonderful coach, and above all a great human being.”

“Roel has a truly unique combination of technical brilliance, compassion, empathy, and ‘heart’. Roel’s energy and passion as a coach are inspiring, and his genuine interest in my personal growth was refreshing and something I have found lacking in my academic and professional career to date. Roel helped me gain perspective, build resilience, and develop tools that really helped me through a difficult ‘mid-life’ phase. I will definitely be back for more coaching as I encounter the inevitable hurdles that lie ahead, and would recommend to any scientist, engineer, or other professional who finds themselves struggling to find balance, meaning, or perspective to get in touch with Roel – you won’t regret it.”

“Roel is a good friend of burros.  I enjoy running at his side. He is steady and calm and faster than most humans I know – wheee! He knows I love peanut butter sandwiches and shares his with me. 5 out of 5 carrots.”!

“Our Institute invited Roel to speak with our faculty, students, and staff. The visit was an overwhelming success! Roel uses story and shared experiences to craft relatable messages that welcome participants. He has a heart for helping people, especially scientists, find joy and harmony in their life and work. You will be glad you invited him to collaborate with you.”

“Annette, why are you crying?” Such a simple question extended with the utmost compassion and empathy opened a flood of deep emotions. Through his questions, Roel helped me identify what I needed to do next to bring deeper meaning and purpose to my life. I am grateful for his impact on my life.

“Roel is one of the few exceptionally gifted people that I know that has the rare combination of an outstandingly strong analytical and highly creative and intuitive mind on the one hand, and a highly empathetic, loyal and very loving character on the other. His ability to listen and quickly recognize what is the essence of the matter, and his overall well-balanced and pragmatic approach to live a life with meaning, has not only been very helpful and inspiring from a professional point of view, but it also taught me how to balance `living from the head as well as from the heart.’ I highly recommend working with Roel as your coach, you will not regret it.”
