Hi !
I'm Ulrike
I am a creative Entrepreneur, Circus Artist and Business Coach and I believe that you can get anything you want and I am here to help you create it.
A german with nothing more than an unstoppable hunger for creative expression, a laptop and a dream, I’m proud to have created a forward-thinking digital company that touches performers from every corner of the world.
Through my world-class online training programs and an audience in over 35 countries, I help performers like you dream big and back it up with meaningful action to create results.
One of the things I’m often asked is "Ulrike, How on earth did you get started in all this?"
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been insatiably curious about why things work and why they don't. I wanted to know, what exactly is it that makes artists genuinely happy, successful and creatively fulfilled? Why do some performers struggle while others find a way to thrive, often despite the most challenging circumstances?
I was also passionate about an infinity of seemingly unconnected things: photography, electronic music, fashion, entrepreneurship, cooking, spirituality, personal development, mindset, fitness and business, just to name a few.
After several failed attempts at being a classic circus artist and a lot of angst trying to choose just one thing to be in life, I realized that my unusual combination of interests and skills was a strength, not a liability.
I gave up the security of doing what other performers have done, and began testing any and all ideas and finding my creative voice while slowly building a modern circus career from the ground up. Looking back - I felt like a science project in school where I had to prove that business strategies work for artists too. Good news. They do.
So I combined my over a decade of performing experience, my business research and one of the best coach certifications that are out there - e voila: Welcome to LetMe Academy.
In my career as a pro circus performer, I was feeling frustrated, and defeated, attracting jobs I hated and paid the bare minimum. My dream job had become a nightmare of administrative work, aimless job hunting constant financial struggles.
Until I started translating and applying business strategies to my career and things just blew up, I knew I had to get this method out to others who were struggling with making their circus career meaningful and profitable too.

I believe you must bring your whole self to the table if you want to thrive as a circus performer in today's world.
That includes your unique set of gifts, your hard-earned skills, your personality, your sense of humour, your history and heritage and most importantly, your heart. I believe that whether you are an artist or not, a creative and entrepreneurial approach is critical to fully flourish in the modern world and to experience the happiness and success you deserve.
No matter what your vision or obstacles are, you have the power to change your creative career and, by doing so, you’ll change your life.
This philosophy, a truckload of hard work and a ginormous amount of humility have led to some wonderful milestones. For instance:
Super Model Coco Rocha
While performing a comedy set for Roger Vivier, Coco decided to spontaneously join me on stage waving to the press " I need to have a picture with Marlene "
Gherardo Felloni
Gherardo had me perform twice during world-famous fashion shows in Paris and Milan. A year later, alongside Crazy Horse Performers, I was a featured artist in his fashion film - Do We Show?
The Orient Express
Performing on the Orient Express, Footjuggling on a Grand Piano - on a moving train -for A-List Celebrities as Part of a 24h Murder Mistery was my Hollywood Fantasy come true.
®The Other Richard
From these beautiful experiences and many others, I continue to learn new things each day and expand my own ideas about what it means to lead a fully creative and meaningful career and life.
Which brings me to you
I'm here to serve. My company is built on a bedrock of compassion, a passion for what’s possible and a commitment to be an unstoppable force for good.
Through my free content, online training programs and anything else I might offer — I'm in this to make a difference. To help you build a career and life that you are obsessed about. A career that’s one-of-a-kind and fantastically tailored for you.
Whether you’re starting or growing your performer career or looking to make the next big move in your personal life, I'm here to help you reach the highest levels of your creative potential and tap into the deepest wisdom within you.
Yes, this is a business. Yes, I sell things. Yes, I'm proud and deeply grateful to earn a living doing so. But you should know the vast majority of my creative work is offered to you 100% free of charge.
I’m no wizard and I don’t have all the answers. I make mistakes and have days that can get in the bin and spiral into fear and self-doubt, just like the rest of humanity.
But my commitment is to bring you the very best of what I’m living and learning while keeping it real and honest as I go. So please don’t expect perfect polish ( even though I have a deep love for details ) but do expect thought-provoking ideas, timeless wisdom, some german humour and unwavering devotion to help you live your most bold, expressive and meaningful creative time here on earth.
