Seven years ago, as part of a family expatriation to Turkey, I experienced a big challenge. I had changed the country, job, language, etc … without realizing where I was going and preparing myself. Unable to work for legal reasons, I did not know who I was or where to start. I was utterly lost and stuck. So I began to explore: Yoga, mindfulness, breathing, Sufism, and much more. I practiced Yoga and meditation daily for three years. This regular practice allowed me to center and ground myself in my new environment. I needed it badly. I then studied Yoga more extensively in Turkey and India and earned certification as a Hatha Yoga instructor.

That’s when I also discovered professional coaching. Coaching has transformed me. The more I walked with my coaches, the more I opened doors inside myself that I did not even suspect exist.

I trained in coaching with the Coaches Training Institute, an American school recognized by its co-active coaching model that Harvard used to study the impact of coaching on the brain. After obtaining my certification, we moved to Paris, and I chained with an MBA in management of human resources in international companies. In three years, I have experimented with global human resources, international mobility, and talent management and co-designed a women’s leadership program that has helped many women accelerate their careers.
