Hi, I’m rita..
I love being a coach. It gives me joy and is rewarding to see people overcome challenges and progress with their lives, it makes me feel that I have made a difference.
I believe in embracing all that life has to offer, to push boundaries and experience the new, to make the best of everything.
I am a life-long learner, always advocating personal development and embracing opportunities as they present themselves, after all nothing stays the same.
I have travelled the world, observing and learning about the different ways of living and the way cultures and beliefs influence our ways of being. I am always amazed at the beauty of our planet, the rich sights and sounds that surround us.
I love the power of nature, the impact it has on our wellbeing. The feelings of being rejuvenated by walking through trees, watching a sunset, hearing the waves crash on the shore.
Along with many others, I have faced my share of life’s challenges and bring these learnings into my coaching practice.
My coaching journey continues as I attend webinars and workshops and learn about how the coaching industry is evolving.
I am a full-time coach fully present and invested on working with my clients to ensure I deliver the best coaching service I can.
