Hi, I’m Inga.

I’m so glad you are here.

For more than two decades, I have been immersed in the world of global leadership advisory. I’ve had the privilege of working alongside some of the world’s most visionary leaders and organisations, supporting innovation and contributing to economic growth across the Western world. As a trusted coach and development advisor, I deeply value this work and the opportunity to help leaders shape the future.

And yet, my story extends beyond boardrooms and business strategy.

At my core lives the heart of a Scorpio—intuitive, curious, and drawn to the deeper layers of human nature. Music, poetry, and mysticism have always been part of my inner landscape. Alongside rigorous, science-backed leadership tools, I’ve spent years exploring the realms of soul, archetype, and authentic self. Through this integration, I’ve come to know one thing with certainty: real transformation happens when we honour all dimensions of who we are.

Over time, a clear pattern emerged. So many accomplished women—radiant, intelligent, and deeply capable—found it difficult to lead as themselves in environments shaped predominantly by masculine norms. I know this tension intimately, both from my own journey and from walking alongside extraordinary female leaders searching for something more true.

This is why I founded The Goddess Returning.

My calling is to unite my corporate expertise with an intuitive, soulful approach to leadership—so women like you no longer have to choose between success and authenticity, or silence any part of themselves to belong. Working with me is not about undoing what you’ve built. It’s about amplifying it with clarity, confidence, and alignment to your deepest truth.

If you feel called to lead from a place of wholeness—where ancient feminine wisdom meets modern leadership—I would be honoured to walk this path with you. Together, we cultivate a new paradigm of leadership, drawing on innovative strategies and spiritual practices that have brought me joy, freedom, and fulfilment.

I am devoted to supporting your journey, and to helping you embody the profound, sustainable impact that becomes possible when you lead as your fullest self—within your organisation and beyond.

Inga brings a rare deep inner wisdom and intuition to her work. Her ability to feel into another person and sense their power has helped me on many occasions. Her calm and serene presence immediately creates trust and allows you to drop deep into yourself and allows you to connect to the inner goddess in you.

Meine Entwicklungsreise bei Frau Inga Hiltner hat mich über die vier Stufen „Wissen – Kompetenz – Identität – Motivation“ zu mehr Klarheit und zu einer nachhaltigen, positiven Veränderung und Eigenwahrnehmung geführt. Gemeinsam haben wir meine Werte, Ziele, Talente und Schwächen herausgearbeitet – zur Stärkung der eigenen Führungsaufgabe und -kompetenz. In einer sicheren Atmosphäre war Raum für Offenheit und Selbstreflexion - begleitet durch eine sehr gute methodische Kompetenz und Empathie.

After meeting at a Neuroscience of Change program for coaches in 2020, I have been co-learning with Inga, meeting up virtually very regularly. She has studied and in her work practices deep human understanding including working with trauma. She is a very wise and gentle coach offering lovely insights, support and encouragement to those she coaches.

Inga is one of the most grounded and intuitive coaches I’ve had the pleasure knowing. She has an incredible ability to tune into her inner wisdom and meet people exactly where they are, creating a space that feels both safe and catalytic. Even though her specialty is business coaching, Inga brings a holistic lens to everything she does. She doesn’t just focus on goals—she helps people reconnect with what truly matters to them. Her calm presence, clarity, and quiet strength make her a truly unique force in any coaching space. Working with Inga has been inspiring. She’s not only deeply insightful, but also generous, thoughtful, and always anchored in authenticity.
