A little about us
We have lived and worked all over the world. We have a home in Pennsylvania USA, spend time in the UK with family, but have now decided to finally settle in a rural area of southern Sweden. Close to our hearts is a property we bought 30 years ago. We live on what started as a farm in the 1800s, in the countryside, close to forest, fields, lakes, and the sea. We share our days with local farm animals, but also wildlife, including deer, rabbit, fox and moose. We are enjoying generational living, now that children / grandchildren are joining the family. There is something so special to have daily life together across three generations. Our environment is beautiful and spiritual, where we connect to ancient knowledge and insights. We consciously aim to live as close to nature as possible.

Helen Ljungdahl Round
Helen was brought up splitting her time between Sweden, where she was born and the USA where her father moved, remarried and lived. Her outlook is international, broad and with a great degree of curiosity and sense of adventure.
She is a global business leader, executive coach, and entrepreneur with more than 35 years of international experience spanning life sciences, healthcare, MedTech, strategy, innovation, and organizational transformation. Throughout her career, she held senior leadership and CEO positions across multinational corporations, publicly traded companies, and entrepreneurial ventures across Europe, Middle East, Asia, and the Americas.
Alongside her corporate career, Helen has maintained a deep and enduring interest in human behavior, wellbeing, personal growth, and the connection between professional success and a meaningful life. This was made even clearer when she received a cancer diagnosis in 2023, igniting a significant shift in perspective and focus. During her recovery, she has embraced a holistic approach to wellness, appreciating every day the power of the mind and spirit. Helen is now cancer-free!
Helen works with leaders, management teams, boards and individuals who seek greater success, but also greater balance, resilience, fulfillment, and impact. Her approach combines commercial insight, leadership expertise, and a deep appreciation for the human side of performance, supporting people in creating lives and organizations that flourish both professionally and personally.
This conviction led her to found Studio Ambe together with her daughter Andrea. The company is dedicated to helping individuals, leaders, and organizations thrive through the integration of strategic clarity, human development, sustainable leadership, and holistic wellbeing.
Helen divides her time between Sweden, the United States, and the United Kingdom, bringing a truly global perspective to her work and leadership.

An avid knitter and crocheter, Andrea’s creativity shows up in multiple areas of life. She appreciates the gift of being able to create something with her hands, slowing down, and feeling connected to her ancestors. Similarly, she carves out time each day to move on her yoga mat, whether that be through yoga or mat pilates. Exercising is a way for Andrea to ground and listen to her body.
Andrea uses a combined approach of hypnotherapy, energy work, and coaching to tap into her client’s unconscious and facilitate a connection to their inner and higher selves. Her role is to provide a safe space for deep and meaningful transformation to take place. She loves witnessing the magic of a breakthrough.
