Discovering New Purpose: From Software to Intimacy Coaching
Do you remember a moment when your life changed forever? Mine was on December 5th, 2015. I was 48 years old, leading a healthy lifestyle, when suddenly, a stroke hit me. It was as unexpected as it was devastating. I couldn't walk, see properly, or even remember how to do basic things.
For a long time after, my life was a battle for recovery. It was me and an army of therapists against my health challenges. It was hard, really hard. But in the process, I learned a lot about tools for strength and resilience that really work.
I wasn’t able to walk, talk or see things that were right in front of me.
I had to rebuild my life from scratch…
I had to say goodbye to my job as a software developer, a career I enjoyed and had spent 25 year building, because of my vision loss. Suddenly, I was alone in a way I hadn't been before, even with the support of my loved ones. That's when I asked myself, "What can I do now? How can I give my life a new meaning?"
Before my stroke, I'd been learning about intimacy coaching. So, I decided to refocus. I began to learn as much as I could about relationships and communication. I certified in the Somatica Method, a powerful approach to fostering intimacy, connection and pleasure.
Now, I work as a Relationship and Sexuality Coach and it's the most rewarding job I could have ever imagined. I help people build relationships that are deeply satisfying. I show them how to communicate better, how to understand each other on a whole new level. And I guide them towards embracing their erotic selves, encouraging self-love and deep intimacy.
It feels fantastic to have found new purpose enriching people’s lives!

We all deserve to be in relationships that make us happy. We all deserve to express our deepest desires and feelings. That's what I believe, and that's what I work towards.
My journey has not been an easy one, but it's been worth it. It's shown me that we can learn to live with new limitations, even drastic one, and thrive in new, unexpected ways.
