What do you love about coaching?
What I love about coaching is the space it offers for clients for self-discovery, exploration and personal growth. Growth is one of my personal values and I strive to encourage this with my clients as well with myself. The most rewarding part of coaching is to witness client's learning, development, and transformation progress or just a simple “feel good about themselves".
To connect with people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds, be part of their journey and to celebrate their achievements is very fulfilling and I am grateful for this.
How do you unwind?
I love to sing - it's good for the soul! I've been a member of several semi-professional choirs over the years, including acapella, motown, jazz, soul, currently I'm a member of a Gospel´n´Soul choir. Making music in a community is inspiring, clearing, spiritual act of creation and it recharges me.
I also love spending time with my family outdoors hiking, picnicking etc. I love books and true story movies.
What inspired you to work with CTG?
I met with Brad through a recommendation of a shared contact. I value his expertise, transparency and sense of humour and we share a common interest for Positive Psychology.
CTG offers first class services and it has received a well-deserved recognition as Most Outstanding Leadership and Coaching provider in 2020. I´m looking forward to an inspiring future with CTG.
