Background
Having a background in the corporate world has equipped me with the skills to professionally navigate through challenges and overcome obstacles. Furthermore, my training in NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) has equipped me with techniques to assist my clients in navigating through their challenges successfully.
EQ-i 2.0 certified
I hold a certification in the EQ-i 2.0 assessment, which is an extensively validated and researched tool utilized to measure emotional intelligence. By leveraging this assessment, I provide my clients with valuable insights into their emotional intelligence and its impact on their professional lives and overall success.
AS SEEN IN:
I come from a small town in Italy, but life has taken me to many places including Milan, Boston, and São Paulo. One of my proudest moments? Hiking to the Mount Everest Base Camp.
It taught me that with hard work and determination, we can achieve great things.
Today, I live in St. Joseph, Michigan and, every day, I'm thankful for my wonderful husband, our playful dog, and the simple joy of running.
Professionally, I've worked in Marketing and Communication. I've helped big, well-known brands tell their stories at a PR agency and also worked on brand and marketing projects for a large multinational company.
In my free time, I love to travel, cook, and read books about fantasy and history. I'm also into sports, especially hiking and skiing. Boxing is another activity I really enjoy; it helps me feel strong.
I'm an Endometriosis Warrior and Advocate.
Endometriosis is a chronic disease associated with severe, life-impacting pain and/or infertility. It affects roughly 10% (190 million) of reproductive-age women and girls globally.
It can take on average about 6 to 10 YEARS for them to receive a diagnosis. These statistics are much, much worse for Black women, who are half as likely to be diagnosed with endometriosis as white women, research says.
The fact that so many of us are left to suffer without diagnosis or treatment for so long is alarming. On top of this, when patients do get a successful diagnosis, the battle for relief continues almost unabated.
At present, there is no known cure for endometriosis, and treatment is usually aimed at controlling symptoms.
It is key that we all build awareness around this disease that affects so many women around the world because there is a need for more research and awareness-raising around the world to ensure effective prevention, early diagnosis, and improved management of the disease.
Even though it has been a hard journey, I consider myself blessed as today I can support other women who are living through the same fight, doing what I love the most: coaching.
