I am Jozefina, the face behind Hedera coaching & counseling. The reason why I started coaching and counseling is because after the birth of my daughter I decided to start focusing again on the things that really matter to me in life. Before that I had worked in marketing for years where I never really felt at the right place. I missed the devotion that I did feel during my Bachelor’s degree in Interdisciplinary Social Sciences, and during both my Master’s in Sociology and Communication Sciences. I missed really connecting with people, in-depth conversations and making a real difference in someone else’s life.
Everyone has a story to tell, and it can happen to anyone to get stuck in life for a moment. Sometimes it feels like you’re in the dark and it seems like there’s no solution. From my own experience I know how difficult that can be, but also that there are always sparkles to be found. I grew up with a colorful background of nationalities and I have lived in different countries. These experiences have further strengthened my interest in people and contributed to my open world view. I am approachable, optimistic and a resourceful person who would be happy to help you grow in the direction you want to go.
