I found a full-time job. I genuinely thank you for your help and support, I don’t believe I would’ve found this opportunity without it.
Do you find yourself feeling
Turn your Inklings into Opportunities!
You can sense the stirrings, the inklings, of change
You might find yourself feeling stalled, confused, frustrated and uncertain
with that sense that something is calling you to shift how you are operating in your life/work.
But where do you start? Getting started can seem impossible and confusing.
You don’t feel ready. You don’t have the right information. Let’s face it, it’s all too overwhelming.
So why follow your inklings?
There are lots of reasons to push the call to change aside for a while.
It is easier to stick with the status quo, it has worked in the past. It feels safer to stay in your comfort zone.
Transitional moments are fear-inducing. Transformation can be intense and hard work.
And the distraction of living vicariously through social media can feel like enjoying life for the moment.
We humans love to be comfortable.
It’s easier to side with resistance.
However, this resistance to change and need for comfort is literally leading us to unhealthy habits that are killing us!
Resistance to inner personal growth suppresses our ability to adapt to
the constant and rapid change that surrounds us.
We become spectators as we lose our freedom.
It doesn’t have to be that way! and I get it!
It’s our own special brand, of resistance
that stops us from taking that first step Toward a Change
that stops us from taking that first step Toward a Change
Being a beginner is not easy as an adult. We are masters at getting in our own way!
Why continue to create suffering within yourself and the relationships that surround you?
Learn to listen in and nurture your inklings and reconnect to the freedom within you.
Coaching conversations are my way to serve.
I’m here to see you through to finding your pathway past resistance.
To turn your inklings into possibilities. And design a life you can imagine.

Thanks once again for your coaching and a crash course on negotiating job offers. I truly appreciate your time and insights!!

Martina was instrumental in my success in finding a better-fitting position. I was immediately struck by her keen insight and perception, as well as her warmth and kindness. Martina’s experience is evident; she has a wonderful way with words and was able to connect with me and get to the heart of things right away. She gave useful and concrete strategies on how I could improve my interview performance while building on my strengths and experiences. Martina was able to draw out my passion and enthusiasm and help me build my self-confidence. She coached me on how to express myself and my values confidently in interviews. Her coaching was truly invaluable. Thank you, Martina!
Martina’s approach to coaching allowed me to identify fresh new ways to think about my life, and I still find myself reflecting on some of her questions when I hit a roadblock. She was able to assist me with finding solutions to situations that I was struggling with.
Martina helped take the mystery out of the interview process. She worked with me to explain how the interviewer approaches the interview, what they are looking for, and how to relax and share my skills and abilities. I felt more confident going into interviews after working with her.
