Catalina Ciucalau

Hey There, Thank you for your interest.

My name is Catalina and I am a Tranformative Life Coach.

Are you feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or yearning for a deeper sense of purpose? As a Transformative Life Coach trained at the Animas Centre for Coaching, I believe that true wellbeing starts from within.

I help lovely souls like you create lasting happiness, break free from limiting patterns and step into their full potential - because when our souls thrive, our world thrives.

Whether you're seeking greater clarity in your career, deeper connection with loved ones or the confidence to pursue your dreams, I'll meet you with compassion and unwavering support.

My personalized coaching approach draws from evidence-based methodologies. Together, we'll uncover the root cause of your challenges, cultivate empowering habits and design an action plan aligned with your unique goals.

What I can promise you is dedication, undivided attention, a safe space where you can be yourself, unconditional acceptance, humour at the right time AND holding you accountable for your actions and calling you out on your BS both in a kind compassionate way.

How can coaching help?

Imagine your life is a kitchen. It's got potential, but right now it's a bit... disorganized. There are overflowing drawers of limiting beliefs, a fridge full of expired goals and a stovetop of procrastination keeping your dreams on simmer, never quite boiling.

That's where I come in. I'm your life coach and I'm here to be your kitchen magician! We'll declutter those drawers, toss out the expired stuff and crank up the heat on your goals. Together, we'll whip up a recipe for a life that's both delicious and fulfilling.  That's just part of the fun (and learning)!

What can you expect from the sessions?

>> Agreeing on what will be the main focus of the session, while also being flexible, when/if something else comes up.

>> A lot of space and freedom to share what's present for you and what you would like to talk about.

>> A few clarifying questions, when needed.

>> Sharing what I notice, observ and feel.

What has helped me.

On my personal development journey, I came across various techniques and beliefs: completed the Landmark Forum and the Advanced Course, positive psychology, the Secret, As a Man Thinketh, Ayahuasca and Buddhism just to name a few. Some were more impactful than others.

For me, the Buddhist way is one of the most peaceful ways of being. After completing a Vipassana 10 days silent retreat I was able to reach a new baseline of calmness and ease.

I am a human being and do things outside coaching too: I love badminton, dancing, learning languages and new words, reading, hiking, travelling, volunteering and board games.

If you would like to find out more about the coaching sessions, please drop me a message with any questions you may have.

The first initial session, for 30 minutes is free. This is to ensure our energies match and we can work together easily.

How to get the most out of coaching?

Here are 7 steps to get the most out of your coaching experience:

1. **Come Prepared:** Before your session, reflect on your goals and areas you want to develop. Jot down specific questions for your coach.
2. **Be Open and Honest:** Create a trusting relationship with your coach by being open and honest about your challenges and vulnerabilities.
3. **Actively Participate:** Ask questions, share your thoughts and actively engage in discussions during coaching sessions.
4. **Embrace Feedback:** View your coach's feedback as an opportunity for growth. Be receptive to new ideas and perspectives.
5. **Implement Action Steps:** Turn coaching insights into action by setting clear goals and developing actionable steps.
6. **Maintain Consistency and Commitment:** Regular coaching sessions and consistent effort are key to achieving your goals.
7. **Celebrate Progress:** Acknowledge and celebrate your progress along the way to stay motivated and focused.

Remember, this is your session, your space to shine. So come prepared to be heard, challenged and, most importantly, to have some fun along the way! Let's make this an epic journey, shall we?

Updating the beliefs we've been holding for over a decade takes time AND is possible. A requirement is an openness to change. 

Changing not who you are (you are complete!), instead changing the way you show up in the world for yourself in a way that is aligned with your values, in a way that is authentic to you.

Remember you are worth it!
