Writing an “About Me” section always feels a bit daunting because it’s hard to capture the essence of who we are in just a few sentences. A quote by Oscar Wilde resonates with me deeply:
“If you want to be a grocer, or a general, or a politician, or a judge, you will invariably become it; that is your punishment. If you never know what you want to be, if you live what some might call the dynamic life — but what I will call the artistic life — if each day you are unsure of who you are and what you know you will never become anything, and that is your reward.”
This quote reminds me of the beauty in embracing the unknown, though I’ve always felt a spark for connecting with others.
I was born and raised in a small town in Serbia, in a warm home full of love. I’ve been fortunate to grow alongside some amazing people I call family and friends. From a young age, I was fascinated by human needs, desires, and ways of communication. This curiosity led me to pursue an MSc in Architecture and Urbanism at the University of Belgrade, where I explored the relationship between people and their environments. Later, I moved to the Netherlands to design virtual spaces and study human behavior in the digital world.
A turning point came when I realized how much joy and gratitude I felt during moments of genuine connections with others. I discovered a passion for facilitating experiences that allowed individuals to explore their own strengths, struggles, and values.
Motivated by this, I immersed myself in studying yoga, completing over 500 hours of teacher training. I also explored the practices of reiki, mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy coaching. These studies have deepened my understanding of the mind-body connection and enhanced my ability to support others on their self-discovery journeys.
Now, I find fulfillment in guiding and offering companionship to individuals on their personal journeys. My hope is that we can learn, grow, and uncover the transformative power within each of us together.
