Although Leadership coaching and Life & Career share essential foundations, they are two different journeys. Find out what’s best for you.
CREATING FROM OURSELVES, OTHERS, AND THE UNEXPECTED
Being at the helm of a company or a team is undoubtedly challenging. Whether change occurs internally within ourselves, or externally and unexpectedly, we are constantly under pressure to respond consciously to ever more complex and uncertain situations.
However, our first responsibility as leaders is towards ourselves first, as we can only evoke and empower leadership in others through our own presence, coherence and authenticity.
A coach is a dedicated guide who supports you navigating these inner and outer uncharted territories, so that you create a creative, meaningful and purposeful space for yourself and others, while staying truthful and whole to who you are.
What’s the impact you are yearning to have as a leader?
As the coaching unfolds while working with the issues you’re facing, we’ll further explore and define your unique creative leadership self. Depending on where you are in your own journey, we might explore:
Life purpose and impact
Presence, mindfulness and resilience
Emotional, social, and relational system intelligence
Managing and resolving crisis and conflict creatively
Leading as a coach to empower others
Designing strategic partnerships
Anything else that serves you and your leadership

Leadership doesn’t have to be lonely path — quite the opposite in fact. It calls forth both individual and collective accountability, as we learn, grow and lead together.

LIFE DOES NOT HAPPEN TO US; IT HAPPENS FOR US
When we forget this simple truth we may find ourselves overwhelmed by a life that no longer reflects who we are or what we want. Perhaps we function successfully in the outer world, yet, having lost sight of what really matters to us, we feel stuck. This inner conflict negatively affects the world around us. Maybe it is something in our personal life that needs to change, or maybe it is related to work – often it’s both.
What would be possible if you lived and worked on purpose?
Coaching supports you to design and fully live the life you want. A coach is a trusted guide on your side who champions, challenges and stretches you.
We start from who you are: your values, strengths and grandest dreams. We also work to overcome fear and self-limiting beliefs – to create instead new perspectives that serve you better. We focus on your whole self to reconnect with the creative intelligence of your mind, body and heart.
Coaching helps you gain clarity on your life purpose and the impact you are yearning to have in your world. The Japanese call it, ‘Ikigai’: the reason you wake up in the morning. It’s a self-organising driving force to create a life-fulfilling vision, and move into action.
IKIGAI AND ITS MANY DIMENSIONS.
Life and career coaching is an empowering transformational process that supports you to thrive across all dimensions and grow into your whole self.

By studying the business' inner workings and subsequently helping me to create appropriate and aspirational targets both with work and life, Roberta’s business and life experience, combined with her personable approach, has proved incredibly helpful in triggering the growth and on-going success of the business, as well as a stronger sense of direction for me on a personal level.

“Roberta is a gentle guide to answering the questions about your life you should be asking. She helps you discover where you are, where you’re going, and how to get there. Not just what to do, but how to arrange and cultivate the parts of life and yourself that support you to become who you want to be. This might seem straightforward, but to find the authentic compass points requires magic. Roberta has the skills and intuition to help you find this for yourself, and indelibly."
