My Story
My Story
I have had the unique experience of living in various countries, relocating multiple times, and successfully adapting to new environments from the age of 19.
Throughout these transitions, I have consistently managed to establish myself in new roles and maintain a strong work-life balance, even in the face of diverse challenges (and add to the mixture a “bit of parenthood”, that has its challenges, personal trauma, career burnt out and to top it all battling perimenopause for a few years now).
My adaptability and resilience have enabled me to thrive in diverse environments, demonstrating that achieving a healthy work-life balance is hard work, sometimes extremely overwhelming, but possible and it is a cornerstone of my professional approach.
Isn't it surprising how swiftly time passes when you reflect, realising you're already past 50?
I've accomplished what seemed impossible by leaving my small Hungarian town to work as a maternity nanny abroad, leveraging my nursing qualifications to care for a newborn and a toddler. Motivated by a friend from nursing school who was already overseas and reassured me that learning English wouldn't be challenging, I resigned from my job and bought a single-way bus ticket to the Netherlands. Armed with only fundamental English expressions like "yes and no" and "my name is," I embarked on the journey.
Setting out on a journey that challenged my resilience and fundamentally shaped my identity and future self.
Over the years throughout these transitions, I have consistently managed to establish myself in new roles and worked hard, sometimes struggling, but managed to maintain a strong work-life balance. Reclaiming control to find our way amidst a whirlwind of overwhelm, fear, and a myriad of challenges is a daunting task.
After years of putting others first, “a bit of parenthood to the mixture”, an amazing and beautiful 22 years old, a personal tragedy along the way and a transformative workshop at The Coaching Academy on the weekend of February 15-16, 2020, in spurred my journey of self-discovery.
Delayed by the pandemic, I finally pursued my passion for coaching upon my return to the UK, just before my 50th birthday. This training kick-started a mission to help others achieve their dreams and foster self-connection.
Embarking on my journeys and chasing after my dreams has been possible thanks to the unwavering support and resilience of my incredible mother. From a very early age, she instilled in me the value of resilience and the wisdom to learn from life's challenges.
Her guidance, combined with my rich experiences in healthcare and childcare across various cultures, has ignited my passion for fostering emotional intelligence and resilience in others.
Now, my mission is to support women over 40 as they navigate the twists and turns of life, reminding them that there's always another perspective and choice waiting to be discovered.
I firmly believe, there are no "ifs" for those who dare to take a chance; they are already champions in their own right.
What truly counts is our resilience - the ability to rise after every fall and continue forging ahead on our unique journey.

My Training
Since I have completed my Performance Coaching Diploma at The Coaching Academy in February 2024, I am continuing my journey, and I'm committed to my ongoing growth and improvement to enhance the quality of service I offer.
