My story - my mission
“I see you. facing questions. facing the unknown. facing your own potential.
it is time you see yourself.”

About Me
My life started off in structure and linearity.
I was raised by polish classical musician parents who immigrated to switzerland to build a life through hard work and sacrifice. My upbringing was a blend of artistic flair and pressure to succeed ; of sensitivity and ambition. i created my identity around rigour, rules and performance, with an ingrained belief that human value and connection were earned through image and perfection. I followed the only path that made sense: education, professional excellence, marriage. From the outside, achievements and stability. internally, something was suffocating. I was Unaware, restless, numb. Passionately ticking boxes and forcing outcomes until… it all collapsed.
Turning 30 became a synonym for chaos and uprising: denial; exhaustion; the painful dissolution of a 10 year long relationship that was supposed to last a lifetime; anxiety of rejection and solitude; separation; toxic and dysfunctional habits and associations; burn-out; getting fired from my prestigious corporate job; an ever-growing mother wound; divorce. And somewhere right there, between the lines, between shades of pain, I made the choice to live.
My first awakening experience was a 10-day Vipassana silent meditation retreat in 2018. A bit extreme for a spiritual christening, you might think. Not for me. It was bliss. What I expected to be a purge of tears became a peaceful challenge where the Vipassana wisdom felt strangely familiar. And just like that, the path appeared. Naturally, effortlessly. A blessing disguised in necessity. Soon after that, I had to tackle the social pressure of unemployment. This made me wonder: why is there fear and worry in people’s eyes instead of possibility and courage? Why are we always expected to find quick fixes instead of allowing change to mature? Are we really that conditioned to envision only worst case scenarios, all the while living in Switzerland with a roof over our head, health insurance and unemployment benefits? I decided to turn this moment into the biggest personal development playground in my history, consciously stepping off the beaten tracks for the first time in my life. Exploring, learning, daring. Professionally repositioning. Intimately healing. I travelled to India, alone, and discovered the power of Ayurvedic Panchakarma treatments at a clinic that has become my non-negotiable yearly pit-stop ever since. The therapeutic oils gently cured my fractured relationship with my body, my femininity, my emotions. From anorexia to sensuality. From envy to ownership.
Every layer of awakening that followed became a meaningful step towards my next chapter, my next lucky move.
Being exposed to my own chaos allowed me to navigate the uncertainty of covid with a new level of trust - while still looking for a job.
Reconnecting with my intuition and understanding the wisdom of the body prevented me from completely breaking down when I developed the rarest form of endometriosis: external ombilical bleeding during menstruation. An ever so symbolic calling to unpack the mother wound further.
Being hungry to learn each day and from each individual I crossed paths with rewarded me with a position of Head of People Development and Learning at L’Oréal in Geneva. I restarted my corporate career with a bang - after 2.5 years of unemployment and without an HR diploma. Still today, people ask me what I studied to land that position. I answer: life. I studied life.
Over time, my personal branding became distinct, holistic and slightly mystical. By design. Once I overcame my initial imposter syndrome, I started really enjoying being an ambitious HR Leader at L’Oréal, with Rune tattoos on her hands and a trendy oversized blazer. I was making the most of my second attempt at corporate. This time aware, aligned and proud to be part of such a culturally French empire. In 2024, I made a decision that would become a point of no return: I answered an inner calling and joined a trustworthy Ayahuasca retreat in Colombia. Something undeniable was telling me to go. Like a current, a momentum. It was my first time in Latin America and my second encounter with healing psychedelic rituals. It was professionally unreasonable due to tight deadlines and deliverables at work. It was financially unreasonable due to limited travel budget. I went anyway. When I came back, nothing was like before.
I’ve been trying to put that experience into words ever since, but not even my passion for storytelling can do it justice. One thing’s for sure: a single celestial night triggered an irreversible chain reaction. At this point and out of respect for the extent of my inner explorations, I decided to say goodbye to my HR career. The same month, I had been offered a big (and highly anticipated!) promotion. Part of me still wanted the glory, the status, the new position announcement on LinkedIn. But my heart was ready for a new identity to blossom. That moment I informed my Manager about my resignation remains one of my scariest, proudest and most congruent milestones. I showed up as myself. For myself. And I received the biggest praise for exactly that. For being a decent human.
I left my Polish expatriation - prematurely and jobless - and came back to Switzerland in 2025. No longer able to answer the question “What do you do?” with a delightful “I’m an HR Leader at L’Oréal”. Instead, I discovered what it meant to have closeness and love with your parents. to have your mother beside you - after cutting her off completely for several years.
Instead, I could invest in vitality, femininity and a nervous system so regulated that I can finally trust myself to breathe when life gets tight. Instead, I now have space to welcome creativity, artistry and entrepreneurship on my resume. It was not an easy change. In fact, it was terrifying. But it was also the most rewarding and exciting moment of truth. So you see, I speak from a place of experience when I say: I see you. Facing questions, facing the unknown, facing your own potential. When you’re ready to answer your calling of “something more”, my mission is to guide you on your path of spiritual awakening.
Awakening, yes - but make it grounded. Make it daring. Make it poetic. Make it boutique. I do not stand for neospiritual fluffy trends nor for shallow personal development buzzwords. My work is deep and it is real. It is mystical and it is anchored. It is unfiltered and it is clean. My work is built on a solid framework of professional tools and rules, and yet it follows none of them. At least not strictly. Because my work is all about breaking free from the model, from limiting beliefs, from patterns. Helping you reconnect with a level of intuition, authority and presence that goes way beyond any certification. And as you grow, as you heal…as you become OBSESSED with the magic within you, inevitably you reveal the most magnetic (and fun!) version of you. Your most magnetic Leadership. Because Leadership is, in fact, a byproduct of awakening and your energy is your biggest proof point.
Voilà, it took me 38 years to finally be able to say: I love the woman I’ve become. I love how resilient, vibrant and perceptive I am. I love that I come across as candid, spontaneous, intense and imperfect - especially when I’m having a bad day. I love that I normalized care, rest and integration as fundamental ingredients to be the most productive and persistent when needed. I love that I see synchronicities and solutions where many see naivety and obstacles.
I spent decades blaming others for my suffering and lack of confidence. now that i’ve realized just how much my outer reality is a reflection of my inner world, i need you to realize it, too. because nothing - nothing - brings me more purpose than seeing you own your power. your authorship. your light. Seeing you awaken.
