My Story
![]()
I am Elena, Your Leadership, Success and Resilience Coach. My vision is simple: I partner with my clients in their journey to uncover clarity, overcome challenges, and achieve their personal and professional goals.
My global client base includes senior executives, founders, and leaders across finance, business, politics, and education, as well as individuals navigating pivotal career transitions.
My path to coaching has been anything but ordinary.
I’ve lived and settled successfully in three different countries. I’ve built three successful careers, all while being a mother and a business owner. I’ve also faced a personal challenge of living with less than 80% of lung capacity. Instead of seeing it as a setback, I embraced it as a learning: every breath, every opportunity, and every new beginning matters. It made me stronger, it gave me new goals.
As your coach, I bring that same level of resilience, adaptability and perspective to our work together. I help you think in new ways, create fresh beginnings, and realize your goals—both personally and professionally.
I made a successful career in finance. I worked for major U.S. and Swiss banks. I managed a billion-dollar bond portfolio and served on an investment committee. I was passionate about maximizing returns for investors and worked around the clock—but I eventually chose to reset.
During a break when I focused on my family, I took a fresh look at what truly mattered to me. In search of answers, I trained as a coach in London, learning and practicing alongside other passionate professionals. The training not only helped me answer my own questions, it gave me tools to support personal growth and transformation. I became a convert.
Recognizing the power of coaching, I dedicated myself to coaching full-time. I earned my EMCC coaching qualification and launched my own practice.
