World Adventure, Tango and a Backpack
Journey of Curiosity
Â
My journey led me across continents, through cultures, conversations, and countless cups of coffee with strangers opening up, sharing their stories.
They all became mirrors of life.
It was in those moments—Tango dancing in Buenos Aires, listening deeply in rural villages, witnessing joy and struggle side by side—that I learned my deepest truth:
Â
Presence is Power
I discovered that connection—real connection—starts with seeing and listening.
And that people open up when they feel safe to be themselves.
Â
Â
A Shift Towards Purpose
Â
After earning my degree in International Business and spending years in the corporate world, something shifted.
The old model of success no longer fit. The whisper of my soul grew louder.
And I finally said yes.
I became a certified coach, trainer, and speaker. And I started building what I call my legacy work—supporting women and teams to break free from performance, stress, and self-sacrifice, and lead with truth, presence, and purpose.

Home is where my Heart is
I live in Bergen, Norway—but feel most at home wherever rhythm, heart, and connection live. Latin America is part of my soul—especially Argentina, Peru, Mexico and Cuba.
When I’m not coaching, I’m hiking the Norwegian hills, moving my body or sharing wine and wisdom with friends.
Lead from the Heart
Â
We’re living in times that call for something deeper than strategy—
They call for presence. For purpose.
For leaders who are bold enough to lead from the inside out.
To lead from the heart means to rise—not just for yourself, but for others.
To bring more empathy, truth, and conscious leadership into the world.
To create change not through pressure, but through presence.
As a Certified International Coach, I’ve worked across sectors—from National Healthcare to the National Art Gallery—guiding leaders and teams into more authentic, human-centered leadership.
Because when we lead with presence, we create transformation that lasts.

My Mission Statement:
My mission is to ignite a new paradigm of leadership—one rooted in self-trust, presence, and unapologetic authenticity.
I’m here to activate women into leading themselves first—so they can live boldly, lead consciously, and create impact by being fully who they are.
Together, we’re building a world where women stop performing and start leading—from within.
Where being seen, heard, and empowered isn’t a privilege—it’s the new normal.
