As you already know, I am a life coach. I have many areas of expertise, however I chose to work as a coach who helps people with their personal lives because this is where my passion is.
I've had many careers in my life, I worked in health care, I tried being a research associate in biotechnology and then moved on to feature and film production. I have 2 degrees, one in molecular biology, the other one in computer arts. I was a graphic designer (I built this web site myself, by the way), an animator and a visual effects artist who worked on film. I even have some experience in drafting and architectural design. So, why so many professions? Because I was really determined to live my passion and I am not afraid to make a mistake. I prefer to go after what I want and what I think makes me happy, even if there is a slight chance that I might be wrong.
This kind of attitude kept the fire inside me going. Did that work in all areas of my life? Not really. When it came to my personal life, I still went after what I wanted but I didn't always get it. I've had 3 serious relationships in my life, I was engaged once but wasn't ready to be married at the time so I chose to move on. The last relationship I've had ended painfully and I was heartbroken for a long time. However, I must admit that through that particular relationship and life after it I've learned so much wisdom and gained all this knowledge that I'm willing to share with you through this web site, the articles I write, presentations I make and coaching relationships I develop. I worked hard on myself. I've read many books and articles about relationships; I attended many workshops on men, women, dating, attraction, etc. There was a time in my life where I couldn't miss a workshop on this subject. After a while I realized that I've gained so much knowledge in this area, I could probably teach a workshop! So I did and it was a success.
That was the turning point of my life where I decided to become a life coach. I believe that with my life experience, knowledge and wisdom I can really make a deep impact in people's lives. I know what it's like to be a single woman in this society full of pressure, I know what's it's like to have a career that's not satisfying, I know what it's like to be an addict as I had to overcome that as well. But most importantly, I know that when you are not happy in any area of your life, you don't have to stay in that place and you could never be wrong when you make a choice to pursue something that makes you happy.
