Testimonials
Melike A.
Very inspiring and useful workshop. I recommend to everyone.
Silvano S.
Natália knows how to convey the workshop very well with a variation of her professional knowledge and personal examples. This workshop is very inspiring and has certainly given me the tools I was looking for to give my life even more meaning and happiness.
Karen S.
Natalia delivered an engaging informative webinar (...) was quite an eye-opener.
Here's what others think in greater detail...
Romana Kudelkova
"[...] this was the best investment that I did in my life. I invested time and money to move myself from very deep and dark place where I felt stuck, not motivated, with doubts in myself, to a clear and light path with clear mind, defined goals and tools how to deal with obstacles.
It definitely helped me to live joyful life without over stressing about a things that I can't change.
I also feel that I have higher quality relationship because I started to communicate my needs and feeling in different way. I realised that I have a power to change what I don't like in my life, what I 'only' needed was the clear goal and realising that without it, it is impossible to go forward.
So jump and let Natalia help you to find your own path.”
Luciana Fonseca
From confused and discourage to confident, empowered, and doing less but achieving more.
Brazilian/Spanish, an expat for over 30 years across different continents, ACCESS-Netherlands Project Manager
Luciana was feeling stuck, confused and discouraged, and she felt she lacked discipline and focus.
After working together she feels she has gained clarity, confidence, self-esteem: “I feel more empowered”. She can now make decisions, prioritize and not feel guilty about saying ‘No’. She actually says that “before [working together] I was doing lots of things and I wasn't achieving anything. Now I feel like I'm doing less things, but I'm achieving more. I'm also more present, more calm, more stable.”

Marco del Negro
Marco is no longer "a boat on the ocean with a lot of fog around" but instead feels "I finally found [out] what I wanted to do next".
Brazilian, photographer and future Project Manager in environmental sustainability areas, living abroad for the past c.15 years in different European countries.
Marco felt his current job was no longer giving him the fulfilment he wanted and he was impatient to see some change but he also felt really lost among all the possible options he could consider.
Working together helped him “find the path that he wanted”: “I finally found what I wanted to do next”.
Today he has a Plan A and a Plan B. He now believes that “often it's more, not about knowing one [specific] answer, but about feeling you have the direction”, “that – okay - I know where I'm going, yeah!”

Ana Lourenço
Portuguese, living in the Netherlands for several year, Ana decided to stop being a dentist to pursue a career in IT more aligned with her current values and priorities
I recently went through a career coaching journey with Natália and it was a truly valuable experience. Natália is incredibly knowledgable, deeply interested in helping her clients, and always available to offer support and guidance. She helped me reflect on my strengths and passions, and ultimately helped me to make a successful career change. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to gain clarity and direction in their career.
Dear Natália, thank you for everything!

Elisa
From confused and delaying decisions, to enjoying life (outside and at work), feeling free from a lot of pressure and worry, and confident about how to adapt her CV for a future job.
Italian, lived in different European countries for about 7 years and is now back in Italy.
Elisa was feeling very confused, nervous and uncertain. She was aware about a few issues she had to deal with but she felt she needed some support to go from “this big mess to having some focus” and avoiding procrastinating regarding her decisions and actions. Working together offered her some structure that helped in her clarification process.
Her biggest win is that she was able to free herself from a lot of pressure that she was feeling, because she is now able to look at her achievements from a different perspective. She is no longer looking “at other people” and feeling “they are in a better position or I want the life that they have”; she stopped comparing herself with other people, and realizing how thankful she was for her life.

Now she feels she has more positive thinking and that our work together “increased my free time and the experiences I have with other people outside of work and even at work”.
She also enjoyed learning more about her CV and LinkedIn profile and the revision we did: “I think [Natália] gave me some good hints and [she] definitely pointed out some elements that can be improved, so my knowledge of LinkedIn increased and the next time I apply I will know how to lay out my CV or what to look for in a job offer, so that I can adapt my CV”.

About Me
I help expats and other internationally-minded people make meaningful, long-term changes in their professional and/or personal life in a safe, confidential, but also challenging environment.
I have first-hand experience of working across countries and in different sectors, including at the executive level. Through individual coaching and group training, I seek to empower my clients to reach the next level of their career and live more fulfilling and happier lives.
In addition to certifications in Professional Life Coaching and Behavioural Coaching, I hold a specialization in Positive Psychology, further training in Career Coaching and Positive Intelligence, as well as a PhD in International Relations and a Master in Sociology.
Aside from being a Career & Life Coach, I am also a trainer, professional speaker and university professor, and I volunteer in different clubs and groups. During Covid, I picked up crochet as a hobby, but I'll always just love to solve jigsaw puzzles!
