Johan Terryn studied Language and Literature at UAntwerp and Communication Science at UGent. He soon embarked on a career in media, working in both radio and TV, and in public and commercial broadcasting.
Johan explored all genres in the media industry, ranging from light entertainment to more substantive documentary work. He wrote screenplays, did final editing, acted, presented, and directed. Yet, he remained eager to grow in his field. To achieve this, he pursued a professional coaching course and delved into NLP and Systemic work.
As a Professional Certified Coach, Johan has been coaching TV stars and business leaders since 2017. Since 2020, he has focused on telling stories that better connect people with themselves and with each other.
Johan conducted a major narrative study on 'mourning' in the podcast "Het uur blauw," which resulted in a book and a theater performance. He also has a project about 'regret' titled "Tot onze grote spijt," which includes a podcast, a book, and a performance.
Additionally, Johan writes columns for Radio 1 and co-hosts the podcast "Seks verandert alles" with Rika Ponnet.

Regret is universal. Besides the raw and painful, Johan articulates how regret can be the fuel to take control and make a change. It encourages turning the gaze inward and embarking on an honest journey through your 'regret digestive system.

With humor, sensitivity, insight, self-deprecation, expertise, and authenticity, Terryn succeeds in inviting, provoking, confronting, and healing. Above all: connecting. The feeling as an audience of 'together' experiencing something unique. Ultimately, I left the room with the gentle thought that my regret is a longing, with which I can move forward again.
Rika Ponnet
Johan manages to provide clever and profound tools for digesting regret. This lingers and inspires!
Prof. Dr. Elke Geraerts
Through his own story and that of others, Johan compellingly prompts you to reflect on your own life path. I wouldn't have wanted to miss this.
