Peter Gumbmann

Personal Profile

"Sometimes you have to completely lose yourself in order to truly find yourself."

​

Peter Gumbmann is a musician, speaker, coach, writer, and experiential expert in the fields of addiction, recovery, and personal transformation.

His life journey has taken him from Mexico and Colombia to the Netherlands, from studying music at the conservatory to surviving a Venezuelan prison — and ultimately, to a grounded, sober life — clear, connected, and fully awake in the here and now.

​

After years of addiction and self-destruction, Peter has now lived 14 years free from substances. His path to recovery hasn’t been a clean, linear success story — it’s a raw, honest, and deeply human process of falling, rising, reflecting, and taking radical responsibility. He has learned to face himself fully and to share his story without shame — simply as a fellow human being.

Peter’s strength lies in creating a safe space where everything is welcome: light and darkness, questions and answers.

​

He believes that true freedom begins with honesty — and that awakening isn’t about floating above life, but about diving deep into it, fully awake and grounded.
