How I Can Help You

I primarily listen and ask targeted questions to guide you in tapping into your existing mental resources. Think of me as an explorer on a mission; I assist you in connecting the dots and then taking action based on your insights.

FAMILY INCLUSION
Relocating to a new country can be quite complex since many changes happen at once. As expats, we not only need to adapt ourselves but also navigate culture shock, language barriers, and help our families adapt to the new environment.
Your partner will also be impacted by the changes in a new country, and they too deserve support in navigating the challenges and finding clarity. I’m here to provide mentor coaching to assist your partner in overcoming obstacles and using their strengths to achieve a more balanced life.
Make family life more peaceful and fun!
With extra support, everyone can enjoy smoother days.


IF YOU’RE AN EXPAT MOVING TO BRAZIL
Through coaching and mentoring, I help you navigate Brazilian culture, reduce conflicts, and foster collaboration to thrive in your new environment.
As An Expat Leader…
You need to be courageous.
You need to take risks.
You need to try new actions.
EXPAT Corporate’s challenge
As you navigate through the various facets of an organization, make sure to see the bigger picture!
Embarking on new beginnings requires adaptation. Consider what to keep or discard and which soft skills to enhance.
It is a perfect opportunity to boost your interpersonal skills, communication, self-promotion, and adaptability to cultural shifts.
Culture Challenges
In life’s changes, even when our thoughts are calm and our sense of organization is strong, it is essential to recognize that cultural differences mess with our perceptions and therefore our reactions. What some may see as challenges, others might interpret as threats due to varying cultural perspectives. These challenges can trigger the fight-or-flight response, affecting our daily routines. This complex interplay of factors can sometimes lead to limiting beliefs that keep us from moving forward.
If you’re someone who likes to handle tasks on your own and make sure they’re done perfectly, that’s a great quality. However, it’s important to remember that even the strongest individuals sometimes find themselves in need of support. Seeking help and sharing the load can not only ease the burden but also contribute to your long-term resilience.
I’m here to listen to you and help make your life simpler!
Getting help not only makes things easier but also boosts your long-term resilience.

Tapping Into Your Purpose
The journey to discovering your purpose is a remarkable one, filled with self-reflection, meaningful insights, and transformative moments that unveil the unique path to a more fulfilling and purposeful life.
Together, we can unravel the potential that resides within you and help you tap into your inner wisdom.
Be Stuck With The Same Old You
No matter where we go, we carry our personality and emotional triggers with us.
Mood swings can occur when our day doesn’t go as planned in a new assignment, with a new boss, or on a new project. While we remain the same, the work environment changes, people connections differ, and work meetings become more challenging.
To embark on new beginnings, we often need to let go of or adapt certain things. What can you release, and what do you want to retain? Which soft skills should you enhance, and which ones should you avoid?
Let’s achieve meaningful results together
