Hi! I am Jana, certified executive coach
for female leaders.
I support you to feel worthy of your leadership role.
Stop proving and pushing through.
Start owning your competence and skills - feel comfortable within.
​
Dare to be seen.
​
Based in Paris. Coaching online, worldwide. I speak English, German, French.
You are not sure if coaching is right for you?
If this feels familiar to you, coaching is for you.
First of all: you are here. You took your first step and I am super happy to see you here!
​
Stepping into a leadership role is an exciting adventure, full of opportunities to discover your true potential. Even if you already have the necessary skills, moments of self-doubt can come up, questioning your readiness for this leadership journey. You may also feel the need to be flawless and perfect, the need to prove "you are enough" for this position. It's natural. You are not alone with it.
Many leaders (to be) face the same challenge.
You want to take on new responsibilities, overcome challenges, and drive innovation. Embracing visibility is part of this journey, and the importance lies not just in "doing" leadership right but in authentically "being" your leader-self.
​
Yet, these doubts won't hold you back? Great! Your inner drive is powerful, pushing you towards leadership, despite any uncertainties? Give yourself permission to start a transformative coaching journey
​
-
Stay confident in yourself even when you face negativity or judgment from others: stay committed to taking pride in your skills and accomplishments
-
Don't let your job define you, make it fit your preferences: bring your personal values and convictions into your work without constantly being preoccupied with how it appears to others.
-
Take decisions based on your principles and stay true to what matters to you. Avoid allowing other people's expectations to hold you back.
-
Communicate honestly and directly. Express your ideas, opinions, needs and boundaries. Do not hesitate to speak about difficult topics as well.
You Are Not Sure if Coaching is Effective?
Here are the Coaching Benefits
Leaders aren't born; they are made by facing challenges. Choosing to become a leader means committing to personal and professional growth. Becoming a leader takes time and effort.
Leadership is about accepting the need to go back to growing in order to grow forward.
Leadership is always ongoing. It's a long-term work-life project, an ongoing journey that will challenge you and deeply reward you if you dare.
If you feel sceptical about coaching, then know that it is all right and normal. Many of my clients feel this way when starting. By creating time for yourself, for your questions, needs and wishes, coaching brings clarity and structure into your thoughts. Only through clarity can goals be set. Only then is it possible to take action and tackle your small and big changes.
​
-
Overcome the fear of what others might think and be courageous in your ambition to pursue your true nature
​
-
Step out of the habit of underestimating yourself; have the courage to take on the leadership role without feeling the need to justify your ambition or question your abilities.​
​
-
Put an end to hiding behind a role: step into your personal strength to transform your ideas into reality and lead with your competence & skills

Why Choose Me as Your Coach? About Me:
"Doing your own thinking is the first step in making a difference."
​
For someone who was a master at adapting and blending in - because when you move a lot, you adapt a lot (Kazakhstan, Germany, US, now in Paris); For someone who was planning & organizing events, controlling every detail, deadline, having a plan B for every possible scenario; For someone like me, the first step in making a difference was admitting that I was busy controlling, functioning and managing "things" for "others". My first step was to admit that I had not done my own thinking. This is when my own thinking started. This is when I understood my mission:
​
Encouraging women in making a difference. That's my true mission.
I am Jana, Certified Executive Coach with a triple accredited certificate (International Coaching Federation, Association for Coaching and European Mentoring & Coaching Council) from
Henley Business School. I combine my coaching expertise with the value of my previous 11 yrs international business career and my personal non linear life path.
It is my profound intention to encourage you to start doing your own thinking. So you can be your true self without hesitation. So you know that your abilities are not just sufficient but extraordinary. So you lead others with your insights.
​
It is very important to me to support and challenge critical, individual thinking as well as feelings and awareness. Creating a thinking environment that allows new perspectives and insights is another priority. I am supporting authentic female management and female leadership. I am all in about encouraging and supporting women who want to find their own place in their lives, not just fill one.
​
Coaching and therapy are part of my private life. Self development is my life philosophy and close to my heart. I am working on myself while being a coach. It allows me to create a deeper connection with my clients. Truth, trying to create something good while staying humble and true to myself, responsibility, love, learning, curiosity and laughing are my guiding values. I enjoy philosophy, reading novels, discovering what's new in Paris, running & pilates, going for walks, eating, dancing and spending time with people I love and care about.
