GET TO KNOW ME BETTER
Multicultural Background
I am a multicultural and international citizen. I am French and Brazilian and have experienced multiple life transitions so far: I speak 6 languages, lived in 8 countries, moved locations 21 times, had 26 homes, went to 12 schools and 3 universities, and visited 33 countries.
As you see, change is my only constant!
Currently I navigate the challenges of living and working in a non-native country, and building multicultural and multilingual relationships (professionally and privately). This leads me to experience new types of culture shocks, language barriers and long distance relationship building (to name a few), which helps me understand the specific intercultural challenges one may face when approaching transitions as a couple or family.
Through this journey, I’ve learnt to celebrate these changes and embrace the growth that has happened with them. These experiences have deeply shaped my core values, I place high importance in understanding and fostering each one’s uniqueness, celebrating diversity and standing up against biases.
As your coach I can relate to you in your own transitions, however multifaceted they might be and help you navigate them effectively by building a positive mindset and confidence.
Mindset
Actively working on your mindset is the starting point for getting through any challenges in life.
I’ve learnt this firsthand through my 12 year journey as a swimming athlete, competing at national levels in three different countries. During this time, I was coached on building confidence, discipline and resilience. I acquired a set of tools which were transferrable to all aspects of my life, such as stress management, building self-awareness and control, and achieving ambitious goals.
In my career, I experienced long periods of overexertion from a desire to people-please and a constant need for perfectionism. This has served as a reminder of the power of sports and need for healthy balance in order to achieve success in a sustainable way. I strive to help you do the same, (re-)connecting your mind and body and finding a balance that works for you.
As your coach, I can draw from this toolkit to support you in taking control of challenging situations, adjust the way you perceive them and create a mindset that will help you succeed. I find purpose in helping create this spark within you.
Career & Education
I have over seven years of experience in large corporations as well as consulting companies in their own growth. During this time, I experienced strategy shifts, restructures, and was promoted on fast track paths. I also lead and mentored professionals on their own paths, supporting promotions and career transitions.
I possess a Bachelors’ degree in International Management, a Double Master’s Degree in Strategy and Entrepreneurship, and a Design Thinking Practitioner certification. I am a certified coach, currently completing my Associate Coaching Certification level with the International Coaching Federation.
