My vision as a life coach
I am deeply convinced that the more human beings go through a path of self-knowledge, improve their relationships with the people they love and who are close to them, and perhaps even find the meaning of their life and their place in this world, the more they will be at peace with themselves and with everything around them. The world will be that much more beautiful and peaceful.
Like the hummingbird that brings its drop of water to the forest fire, I wish to make my contribution to this changing world. Because “you can’t solve a problem with the same way of thinking that created the problem” (Einstein). Through life coaching, we can change our way of thinking and, consequently, the world, on our scale.
Why did I become a life coach ?
Why am I here ? What is the deeper meaning of my existence ? Is there anything beyond the reality I perceive ?
The answers I received at the time did not really help me. Like many of us, I followed the classic path that promised me happiness and fulfilment: a well-paid job, a husband, healthy children and the fairy-tale happily ever after.
I started with a classical education and then spent 15 years of my working life in marketing and sales in different multinational companies. I learned how to manage projects, market products and maintain long-term relationships with customers, all on an international scale. I was lucky enough to be born to a Spanish mother and a French father and I have always found it very inspiring to meet people from other cultures, speaking other languages. These different ways of living and thinking have been my key to opening up new horizons and perspectives. But my questions from childhood remained essentially unanswered.
In 2016, in the middle of a deep crisis, I promised myself that if I managed to get out of it, I would, from then on, lead the life my heart desired.
Through this very painful experience, I have indeed found an intimate connection with myself. Before, I was living the life I thought I should live. Exactly as Confucius said: “You have two lives – and the second one begins when you realise that you have only one”.
I realised that the search for happiness starts with intro-spection, with a deep knowledge of who I really am and what I want from within. Far beyond our beliefs and what we learned in our childhood.
In the years that followed, I discovered what brings me deep joy and fulfilment. By listening to my heart and having the courage and te-nacity to make profound changes in my life, I was able to truly understand what we are all capable of: we can make great changes in our lives. It’s just a matter of trust: trust in ourselves, in our abilities and in life itself.
I have redefined my whole life, step by step: family and relationship, friendships, work, diet, exercise, leisure, structure of daily life… and so much more !
And who can accompany such exciting changes ?
Life coaches of course !
Let's just make the world a more beautiful and alive place: it starts with you, with all of us. Are you ready ?
