"The only constant in life is change"
(Heraclitus)
Change is part of the fabric of our life and can act as a positive force when we embrace it. Yet, to fully embrace it, we often need to make ourselves comfortable with one of its core elements: uncertainty. Embracing change for me personally meant leaving my family to attend college in a big city, moving abroad to work and continue to study, changing jobs, companies, teams, location, lately also pausing my lawyer and manager career and starting a new profession as an independent coach. Embracing the many changes I experienced and perhaps sometimes even caused, consciously or not, was not always straightforward as I have often experienced a sense of resistance and a pull towards following more well-known paths. Along the way, however, I have learnt that if we know how to accept and embrace changes, they have the potential to teach us something deeper about ourselves and our purpose on this earth, ultimately adding meaning and enriching ourselves and our journeys.
I see coaching as a powerful relationship that can help people or teams increase self-awareness, align with their values and purpose and help them find meaning, inspiration and opportunities for development and growth among the many changes and the many twists and turns of our life and work journeys.
