Why I do what I do
“I had the great privilege of working with this wonderful woman over the period of a number of months. Maria gently guided me to places I didn’t know I needed to visit in my personal life, which was necessary to unlock success in other areas of my life.
Maria holds space for her clients with understanding, love, and a big dash of common sense. Her unique processes and experiences help you to reflect and dig deeper on an intellectual, emotional and spiritual level.
Her greatest power is in helping you not only unearth but ‘believe’ in your power.
I have no hesitation in recommending Maria to anyone who wants to move forward in their life but isn’t sure of the steps to do that.
Maria’s guidance is that practical piece of your puzzle you may be missing.”
“Maria guided me through many breakthroughs in my thinking and emotional patterns.
Through friendly and judgement-free talks we worked through negative self-deflating thinking and practiced mindfulness and boundary setting as ways of giving my best me. Discovered the languages of communication, tapping and being curious of others’ perspectives and how that influences interactions.
My times with Maria resulted in much better family and work outcomes.
I found Maria immensely helpful and anytime spent with her is productive and easy.“
“Maria puts her soul into her presentations. She is warm, friendly and genuine.”

Her ability to get to the core of the issue and discuss in detail, providing listeners with resources and ideas. She is enthusiastic and passionate about helping others and her and positivity radiates to us all.
