VALERIA: From Cultural Shock to Leadership Success

1.FINDING HERSELF IN AN UNFAMILIAR WORLD
"I feel like a foreign element with my drive for specifics" — this is how my conversation began with Valeria, an experienced leader who moved to Latin America to work on an innovative project.
Reality turned out to be more complex than the job description and its prospects. Her European directness was perceived as rudeness, while endless meetings without decisions and blurred responsibility exhausted her.
"Particularly painful was hearing from a leader colleague that I was 'too harsh and not feminine enough'. This completely threw me off balance," Valeria recalls.
A strong professional began losing not only interest in work but also her overall life energy.
2.THE PATH TO ACCEPTANCE AND NEW MEANING
Our work began with the most painful part — accepting that the culture was radically different from what she was used to.
"Accepting the situation is not defeat, but a starting point for action" — this insight became the turning point.
3.FROM SURVIVAL TO PROSPERITY
Changes began from within and gradually manifested in external results:
- New meaning: Valeria focused on mentoring young employees who highly valued her experience.
- Initiatives: She launched a women's support project in addition to her main responsibilities, which even earned her the Employee of the Month title.
- Breakthrough: As a result of successful adaptation and colleagues' respect, Valeria received one of the highest leadership positions in the country, where she works very successfully.

Anna: When Professional Confidence Returns
RESULT: "When I stopped obsessing over my career and found balance, everything changed. It's like I came out of a long hibernation and finally shook off the cobwebs."
1.LOST IN PROFESSIONAL FOG
Anna, an experienced UX/UI designer working remotely for an international company after relocating, was struggling with a complete loss of professional confidence. Despite her successful career, she felt paralyzed by self-doubt and couldn't even bring herself to update her LinkedIn profile.
Everything looked fine on the surface, but inside, a real storm was raging: motivation had disappeared, professional self-esteem was plummeting, and thoughts about changing careers were becoming obsessive.
2.THE BREAKTHROUGH MOMENT
The key insight came during an unexpected moment when Anna arrived at a session in complete apathy. I suggested she refocus and listen to what she really needed in that moment.
She realized her internal critic wasn't her rational adult voice, but a perfectionist who would never be satisfied. This awareness became the foundation for creating a genuine roadmap forward.
3.FROM HIBERNATION TO BREAKTHROUGH
Changes began from within and gradually manifested in external results:
- Management noticed Anna's renewed energy and confidence, and she was offered to lead the company's new mobile application launch — managing stakeholders at all levels and leading cross-functional teams.
- Anna learned to separate emotions from rational thinking, stop exhausting comparisons, and believe in her abilities again.

Andrew: From Impostor Syndrome to Career Breakthrough
RESULT: "When I stopped comparing myself to 'programmers from the cradle,' everything changed. My combination of skills isn't a lack of experience — it's a competitive advantage."
1.PARALYZED BY COMPARISON
Andrew, a business analyst with 5 years in IT, received news about his company's closure on his location. Despite his proven ability to both analyze processes and implement solutions in code, the sudden layoff exposed deep professional insecurities.
"I'm not even really a developer yet, only 5 years in IT, came from a completely different field" — this is how Andrew described his state during our first meeting.
Impostor syndrome haunted him constantly, sabotaging his confidence and job search. He compared himself to colleagues programming since age 18, compensating with chronic overwork and endless hours. The paralysis deepened: perfecting final projects while time for job searching slipped away, plus an unresolved question — which country to even look in to continue his career?
2.THE TURNING POINT
The breakthrough came when Andrew realized he was devaluing his unique skillset while giving others power to evaluate him.
"Yes, they have more programming experience, but I have a unique combination of business analysis, technical skills, and effective communication" — this understanding fundamentally changed his self-perception.
3.FROM FEAR TO CONFIDENCE
We created a clear plan: finish projects without perfectionism while actively searching. Geography resolved naturally — stay in his current country where he had foundation and connections.
Result: 2 months later, Andrew landed a position at a very famous company. The real transformation was internal — he stopped overworking out of fear and started seeing his skills as competitive advantages.

Oliver: Breaking the Overthinking Cycle
RESULT: "I was skeptical about coaching at first, but the work was practical and genuinely useful. I learned I was distorting reality — magnifying problems and minimizing my strengths. More importantly, I learned I could actually change these patterns.."
1.THE SITUATION
Oliver, a recently promoted mid-level developer, came to coaching at a turning point: "I can't seem to turn off the mental loop. Every small comment sends me into hours of worst-case scenarios. It's exhausting."
The pattern was clear: receive feedback → spiral into self-doubt → work extra hours to "prove himself" → feel exhausted → become more sensitive to feedback. A vicious cycle that was draining his energy without improving his work.
2.THE BREAKTHROUGH
Over 5 sessions, we systematically dismantled this pattern.
Oliver discovered he was magnifying minor issues while ignoring positive feedback, and assuming negative intent where none existed. We built his personal "reset toolkit": reality-testing questions to challenge catastrophic thoughts, physical grounding techniques for anxiety spikes, and a "confidence anchor" based on documented evidence of his actual capabilities.
3.FROM MENTAL LOOPS TO STABLE GROUND
The shifts were both measurable and profound. His confidence level rose from 3 to 7 out of 10 by self-assessment, he reduced overtime.
Most importantly, Oliver stopped interpreting feedback as personal attacks and learned to distinguish between his thoughts and reality.

What clients ask me most often
A diagnostic session is a key element of our potential collaboration. It's an opportunity to calmly, without any pressure, understand whether we're a good fit for each other. It's also my gift to you — by the end of our meeting, you'll already have a clear understanding of your starting point, a "roadmap" for moving forward, and possibly even your first concrete step.
First insights and clarity — already during the intro session. A concrete action plan — after 2-3 meetings. Sustainable changes in thinking and behavior — within 2-3 months of regular work.
Coaching focuses on the future and achieving goals, while therapy works extensively with emotions and trauma. In my understanding, coaching is more of a business tool for the professional sphere when actions and changes are needed. We work with your resources and potential, creating strategies for moving forward. I use methodologies from cognitive-behavioral psychology, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and some mindfulness practices. This is a proven method with clients throughout my 10 years of practice. I believe in integrating various methods for the client's benefit.
I guarantee full engagement, professional approach, and adherence to International Coaching Federation (ICF) ethical standards. I'm a very result-oriented person myself and value a business approach. Practice shows that my clients who achieve the best results are those ready to take responsibility for their lives and are open to new things. The diagnostic session is a fair opportunity to understand whether we can work together for your best results.
Skepticism is normal and even helpful. I work with concrete tools and measurable results. Some of my clients were initially skeptical but valued the structured approach and practical results.
After 20 years in HR, I realized that what brought me the most satisfaction was developing people, not managerial processes and operational tasks. I love individual work and seeing how my clients develop and achieve concrete results. This is my current mission and my joy.
It depends on your goals. Express solution for a specific task — 2-3 sessions. Career transformation — 6-10 sessions. Long-term development and professional support — subscriptions for 6-12 months.
This is a frequent and absolutely normal request! Uncertainty and confusion are not obstacles, but opportunities to hear yourself and make a decision about a new direction of movement. We'll dedicate the first few sessions to clarifying your true desires and goals.
800+ hours of successful online work with clients from 10+ countries prove that results depend on process quality, not format. Online is even more convenient — saving time and the comfort of your home environment. Modern technologies allow creating shared documents and interactive boards, which I frequently use in my work.
Yes, I have clients from 10+ countries. I conduct sessions in Russian, English, and Czech. I understand the specifics of international careers and cross-cultural challenges thanks to my own experience living in 4 countries.
