Can you tell me a little bit about your coaching journey and what motivated you to become a coach?


I started my coaching journey as a student of Psychology and Child Development, when I volunteered in an Orphanage in Serbia for 5 years. I started counselling and supporting parents and families in their transitions and difficult family situations. Later on, as I moved to Dubai, I had a strong record in management and sales, and decided to combine these to help others. While building my coaching practice and working with many coaches, I noticed big gaps for start-up coaches and entrepreneurs and decided to create a unique method that will fill this gap and help people get faster results.


Is there a particular moment or memory of your coach training that stands out for you?


Definitely being recognized by Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi in the KBB community.

Meeting new cultures, people, embracing diversity and professionally growth, inspiration and connections.

Imagine yourself in three years. What do you hope will be different about you compared to now?

How do you prepare for your coaching sessions?


1st session is always based on detail assessment from the information gathered. Every session is always individualized however I do follow my system and exercises I put in order to help clients get clarity and set systems in place. I always go over the notes from the previous session to see what was covered and check how much has the client achieved.


When you started your coaching business what was the biggest challenge for you?


Knowing how to get clients regularly.


Can you describe how you were feeling when you coached your first client and what did you learn from that experience?


I had fear that I will not actually help them, however seeing how much their lives changed in short period of time and getting their feedback and testimonials was fulfilling and a big pleasure.

Excited!
