Hello, I am Ilona
ABOUT ME
My journey in coaching and mentoring began a long time ago when I first became a team leader. I have 20 years of leadership and management experience in various business areas and positions: from team/department manager to CEO. I worked both in start-up companies and in large international organizations. During these years I get to work with many people and be part of their learning and growth path and it gives me great joy to see them strive and blossom. I have always preferred sincere conversations no matter the titles since they are so much more open, lively, human and a lot more fun!
I chose the direction of Flow Coaching because there are no set strict rules or boundaries, it is like a conversation between friends, between two open people. When there is no defined form, there is no expectation to conform to any format, then there is no mistake - we create a safe and easy space to be. It flows like like a river.
I am currently studying Existential Therapy at the Institute of Humanistic and Existential Psychotherapy. I believe that questions about the meaning of life, freedom, loneliness, and ultimately death always catches up with us, often after various crisis in life. I have also graduated Psychological Crisis Management at this institute and learned to give emotional support and help stabilise state of being in difficult situations.
The ever-changing thoughts, turbulent emotions and our restless mind makes us anxious ourselves. Often anger, guilt, sadness or low self-esteem comes from unsatisfied expectations. When external things: people, things or experiences do not bring long-term happiness - a person sinks into apathy and depression, loses the meaning of life. I want to share my experience and help you remember what really brings you happiness and peace.
