Ignite Your Motivation
and Transform Your Life.

Coaching for high achievers who want to change and design a life of deeper meaning, impact, and fulfillment.

You’ve worked hard, but somewhere along the way, your life has derailed.

you...

...have lost a long-held identity because of divorce, job loss or another life-changing event and you don’t recognize yourself.

...go through the motions every day with no motivation. Your confidence has faded, and you have no clear direction.

...feel miserable, overwhelmed, stuck and get frustrated by the little things.

This was me, and maybe this is you now?

Stop overthinking and consider a different approach.

Procrastination or overthinking convinces you there’s a “right time”—but action is what unlocks your potential. I can help you break free from uncertainty and build the life you deserve. As a certified life coach, I help people find clarity, regain confidence, and move forward with purpose.

When adults asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I’d say “I want to be an American.”

I grew up in a communist country during the Cold War, where freedom was scarce, and travel was impossible. Inspired by my grandfather’s stories of WWII and how the Americans brought hope, I dreamed of one day becoming an American—it was all I ever wanted.

Through hard work and strategic choices, I achieved my dream of moving to the U.S. Since then, I’ve experienced tremendous highs and soul-crushing lows. Because of these experiences, I’m passionate about helping you break free from limiting beliefs and perceptions and create a life where you achieve your desired dreams. 

What my clients are saying

★★★★★

“Maria changed my life, the way I was thinking and acting, and she taught me the key aspects of empowerment which are: self-confidence, positive self-image, internal motivation, resilience, goal setting, that there is always another option, how clarity comes from execution, that NO is a complete sentence, to ask for help and love myself first and never give up on my dreams. She taught me how to be my own best advocate, and how gratitude is the cure for everything.”
