My journey started in the corporate world, where I spent years working in the insurance and banking industries. That experience gave me a deep understanding of the challenges professionals face in fast-paced environments, especially when it comes to maintaining emotional well-being under pressure.
Mindfulness has been at the heart of both my personal and professional life for over a decade. I focus on bringing mindfulness into workplaces, helping teams communicate more effectively, build stronger connections, and become more resilient.
I’m a certified Mindfulness at Workplace Trainer and a Qualified Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Teacher, currently training as a therapist at the Nederlandse Stichting Gestalt Institute in Amsterdam.
As a TEDx and conference speaker, I’ve had the opportunity to share my insights on mindfulness and well-being with a variety of audiences, sparking positive change in both their personal and professional lives.
In addition to mindfulness, I’m also deepening my expertise by studying psychotherapy in Amsterdam, as I believe in offering a holistic approach to emotional well-being.
Originally from Latvia, I now live in Spain, offering online therapy sessions and online webinars to corporate clients around the world.
Whether through one-on-one work or group workshops, I’m passionate about helping individuals and organizations integrate mindfulness and emotional well-being into their everyday lives, no matter where they are.
