Hi, I am Claudia.
What I Do
I help mid-career professionals who feel stuck, disillusioned, or disconnected from their work rediscover clarity, confidence, and meaning—so they can transition into careers that create lasting, positive impact.
Grounded in Positive Psychology, my coaching is for people who are no longer satisfied with surface-level success and are ready to do work that truly matters—to themselves and to the world.
My Favourite Questions Start With WHY…
I always had a deep fascination for the most important questions of all time, the one's that start with: WHY?
And they have gotten me into trouble…
Why do we have to do the things “because we have always done them this way?”
Why do we do things the way we do? Why do some people have their best ideas in groups, while others get creative on their own? Why do we sometimes lose hope, and how can we get it back?
Why does my well-paid job not make me happy?
And that last question bugged me for many, many years…
My Journey: From Tech to Positive Psychology to Changemaking
For about 20 years, I held various customer-facing roles in the IT industry, working confidently with multi-million dollar customers and some of the most disruptive brands in the world.
It was exciting. There was always something to learn. There was always something that pushed me out of my comfort zone. There was always another promotion.
Higher, bigger, better.
Eventually, this started to become exhausting.
I felt disconnected, demotivated and now now that it was burnout mixed with compassion fatigue.
I just didn’t care about the work I did.
My Accidental Second Career
In 2016, I embarked on an academic journey to launch my second career and became a Psychologist and Accredited Coach. Starting as what I then called my hobby, I stumbled into the work I do today through learning, trial and error and following my heart.
Looking back, I could have gotten to where I am today a bit quicker, if I had worked this out strategically. Believe it or not, in 2016, I had no idea that I could work with a career coach - I thought coaching is for executives only.
I am now an independent coach, trainer and facilitator, working self-employed full-time, supporting with professionals like you who want to make significant career changes or transitions rooted in what really matters.
