You have already achieved so much. Time to actually feel it.

You're in your 30s, 40s, 50s, standing in the middle of your life and suddenly asking yourself: "Is this really MY life?" You've worked hard, achieved a lot, maybe you're a mother, a leader, or the first in your family to take this path. But there's this feeling: There's more. And I guess that you feel it. Right? That inner voice saying "Yesss, yes, THAT!". But at the same time you ask yourself: Am I allowed to want this? Is this too crazy, too much? Am I good enough for it? What will people think?

The women I work with:

Live between worlds: between what they show on the outside and what's happening inside
Are often the first in their family or environment to "do it differently"
Work in people-centered jobs: HR, marketing, arts, yoga. Anywhere heart and mind are needed
Love nature, words, philosophy, have a cool humor and swear once in a while
Have a vision but feel alone with it
Want to finally stop making themselves small and justifying everything

You move between roles, between expectations, between "I need to be professional" and "I just want to be myself." You've taken so many detours, u-turns and don't see how strong that made you. It's time to take yourself seriously. It's time for your voice. It's time to feel: You are enough, exactly as you are.

Take time to find out what's possible

How I support YOU - what actually happens in our sessions

I'm here to help you stop the bs thoughts in your head and start trusting what you already know and feel deep down. We work together so you can finally hear your own voice over all the noise of "what will people think" and "am I doing this right?". This isn't about me telling you what to do. It's about creating a space where you can think differently and for yourself, feel freely and figure out what YOU actually want.

What we work on together:

Stop trying to be perfect everywhere: You know that feeling when you say yes to everything at work but can clearly say and share your opinion at home? Let's figure out what happens at work and how to bring your real self there, too.

Trust your gut feeling: You're emotionally intelligent as hell but you keep second-guessing yourself. "Am I crazy for thinking this?" No, you're not. Let's get you back to trusting that inner voice and intelligence.

See your actual strengths: You don't see what makes you unique: your detours, your different perspectives, your ability to move, switch between worlds. Time to own and really see what you bring to the table.

Stop taking everything personally: When your colleague gives feedback or your boss seems stressed, it's not always about you. Let's work on seeing the systemic stuff vs. the personal stuff.

Have those difficult conversations: Whether it's asking for what you deserve, setting boundaries or just telling that role model "I admire what you do", let's practice being direct and respectful, your way, without apologizing for xyz.

Figure out if you still want this life: "Do I still want this? As a mother, as a (team) lead, as me?". These are the big questions we dive into. No judgment, just honest exploration.

Stop the comparison thing: You're not behind. You're not doing it wrong. You're on your own timeline and that's exactly where you need to be. Ok? :)

Important Note: Coaching is a powerful tool for self-discovery and personal growth, but it isn’t a substitute for therapy. My work doesn’t replace therapeutic support and does not address psychological topics, mental disorders, or conditions.

Take the first step today, let's do it together

healthy boundaries, what matters, letting go, self confidence, what i want

My approach and what's different:

I don't do hierarchy. I don't do professional faces. I don't do typical coaching tools that feel like homework.

What you get: The space to say the thoughts you think make you sound crazy. True empathy, and I get it because I've been there. Deep, active listening where you actually feel heard. Questions that make you go "Oh shit, I never thought of it that way."

What you also get: My full presence, some humor when we need it, me calling out contradictions when I see them. I'll share insights, make connections you might miss and sometimes say "That doesn't sound like you" when you're not being honest with yourself.

I'm not here to be nice. I'm here to be real. I've been coached, I'm in therapy, I dance, I make art, I've made big life changes myself. All of this helps me see patterns, understand the space between worlds, systems and recognize when someone is ready to stop playing small.

The result? You start making decisions instead of endlessly researching. You show up as yourself in meetings. You say no without guilt. You finally feel important in your own life.

Make space for your growth

Thank you very, very much for your professional coaching support. I was really moved by the way you work with people. You were able to clearly work out my challenges from my vague explanations and not let me lose sight of them during the sessions. I really appreciated your sense of humour which did not mean that you lost a certain seriousness when working on the topics. The main thing I take away from working with you is to appreciate what I have already achieved. I realise that it's okay to sometimes simply relax and not have to give 120% all the time. Every time I walk past my mirror, I have to smile because I can't help but think of our shared appreciation phrase ;)

Want to work together? Here's how:

First, let's talk: Discovery Call

and what you need.

Then: We dive in (if it feels right)

What you get:

Confidentiality (obviously)
1-hour online sessions every 2-3 weeks, focused entirely on YOUR stuff and pace
Let's start small: with a 3 sessions package. See how it feels, then decide if you want more. we adjust based on what you need
Language: English, German, or French (whatever feels most natural for you)

Judgment about your choices
Personal advice or solutions

You're in control. You can pause or stop anytime. This is about what serves YOU and your growth, not my agenda.

Why Choose Me as Your Coach?

"Doing your own thinking is the first step in making a difference."

I know what it’s like to adapt, blend in, and just live that linear way, def done that. And learned out of it.

Born in Kazakhstan, growing up in Germany, with a one year stop over in US, and now living in Paris, I had to learn early how to fit in. I've been moving between worlds, languages, cultures my whole life. For 11 years, I was the perfect event planner: organized, controlled, professional, managing every detail, working my ass off. Telling myself I should be thankful for it all and not want more. The turning point came when I admitted that I wasn't thinking for myself. And that I wasn't listening to my body and heart. That’s when I began my journey of self-discovery and realized my true mission: Encouraging women in making a difference. That's my purpose.

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. My 11 years of international business experience and my personal journey give me a unique perspective on coaching But honestly? My certificate isn't what matters most. What makes me me is that I'm still doing the ongoing self discovery, the ongoing (un)becoming myself. I get coached, I'm in therapy, I dance, I paint, I make honest life decisions and question everything sometimes haha. This isn't just my job, it's my life.

My style: I laugh, I swear, I create honest rooms where you can be real. I don't just listen, I hear what you say, what you don't say and what your body is telling me while you're saying it. I see patterns, make unexpected connections between your different worlds and see and point out the contradictions that keep you stuck. I love diving into the real, messy stuff that most people avoid. The topics that make everyone uncomfortable. I can hold those spaces with strength, care, love and maybe a joke when we need it.

I enjoy philosophy, reading, writing, discovering new things in Paris, running, Pilates, walking, dancing, painting, and spending time with my loved ones.

If you want someone who combines professional expertise with a human, raw, warm authenticity, someone who's experienced and lived that "being on the journey thing", figuring out who the hell she really is, I'm here. Let's do this work together.
