My life so far has been a winding road. From corporate minion to frontline humanitarian worker to documentary filmmaker to yoga teacher, and finally life coach.

A string of near-death experiences in Africa and Middle East plus an accident that left me partially disabled pushed me over the edge into a state of total physical failure, emotional breakdown and mental burnout.

That was the beginning of my self-discovery and healing journey which is the essence behind my Wellness & Life Coaching Program.

MY HUMANITARIAN CAREER

Many of you ask me about my 15 year long humanitarian career... so here it goes.

I spent over a decade working as a frontline humanitarian and relief worker. I was deployed by Action Against Hunger, the International Red Cross and finally the United Nations to some of recent history's worst natural and man-made disasters.

I am proud to think back and realize that I directly and indirectly provided life-saving humanitarian relief to over 1 Million beneficiaries across Africa, Asia, Middle East and the Americas.

 As a frontline humanitarian worker, I got to discover and meet some of the most wonderful places and people - often case going hut to hut and observing the raw reality of poverty and death. It was a highly transformative life experience which made me grow as a human being and is responsible of how I now see the world and humanity.

The Turning Point

Unfortunately, I also came out burnt out and loaded with a laundry list of physical, emotional and mental health issues: PTSD, herniated discs, Degenerative Disc Disease, chronic malaria, emotional disconnect, and total mental burnt out.

That was the beginning of my own healing and transformational journey. I now have the honor to offer my healing practices to my students and clients.
