It seems like a long time ago since I started my world journey. Meanwhile, I have lived in nine countries, seventeen cities, and moved thirty times, and counting...

 

When I saw the empty nest ahead of me, I returned to studying the one subject that interested me the most: psychology. A German university was my choice, and I got very interested in Pedagogical Psychology, most of all the teen years. I took it a little too far, as I didn't only earn my Bachelor's, but also my Master's in Clinical Psychology...

 

At one point during my daughter's teenage years, she was hiding more in her room, sharing less of what was going on, and I remember thinking, "I wish she could talk to a professional adult". Suddenly, my daughter posed the question of whether she could consult with a life coach. I thought it was a brilliant idea and couldn't believe that I hadn't come up with it... I guess it was because I didn't want to admit to myself that sometimes you need the help of other people, especially when you have no family or good friends nearby. Pretty soon, I noticed the change in my daughter; she came out of her room more often and started talking again. I observed how her self-esteem grew and how she set goals and made plans for her future. 

 

This change in her made me realize that there are times in life when being a "good mom" isn´t enough, when you reach a limit and you need somebody else your daughter can confidentially work things out with. And that that´s okay!

 

After I got certified as a Teen Girl Life coach, I decided that I wanted to provide my coaching services to as many girls as possible. That is why I offer to coach online via video conference on Zoom, FaceTime, or Skype. This way, we can connect worldwide, as I will be just around the corner from you! I have extensive cross-cultural experience, understanding different nationalities and able to coach in three languages (English, Spanish, and German).
