Testimonial
Designing Dream, Building Trust
Real stories from real clients who turned mindset shifts into game-changing results.
“Working with Kerdu gave me practical tools to stay focused under pressure and manage challenging situations with more confidence. The techniques helped me strengthen a key weakness—something that now supports me daily in my current role. I highly recommend her to anyone in a high-performance environment.”
"Working with Kerdu has been a game-changer for me. I’ve always kept my emotions bottled up and often pushed them aside, but through her Mindset Fitness approach, I’ve learned how to shift out of negative states quickly and move on from mistakes. After a tough first half with low confidence, I used one of her techniques at halftime, reset my mindset, and came back stronger—scoring my career-high in the German Bundesliga. I now use what I learned from her in games, training, and everyday life."
"Kerdu’s program gave me practical tools like visualization and self-talk that made an immediate difference. I visualized scoring before a game—and did it in the first minute. I now use these techniques in every training. Even though I’d heard of them before, Kerdu helped me actually apply them with confidence."
"Working with Kerdu and learning the Mindset Fitness techniques had a real impact on me. I started taking time for myself in the mornings to slow down and focus—something I hadn’t done before. My mornings used to feel chaotic, but this simple shift brought more calm and clarity. It also became harder to dwell on negative emotions, which helped me stay more balanced throughout the day."
