Inspiring stories of personal and organizational transformation
Case studies
These case studies will help you understand what type of work I do with clients (names are changed for privacy purposes).
unblocking creativity
Vishen – From IT Exec to App Developer
When Vishen came to me, he was torn between working as an IT executive or starting his own venture. He felt stuck and unhappy. He needed the stable income to look after his family, but he was unhappy not living his creative purpose. Together, we found a way to have our cake and eat it too.
By overcoming fears and breaking down his entrepreneurial ideas into micro-steps, he not only unleashed great amounts of energy and happiness that he channeled into his ‘side-kick’, but also started to enjoy his corporate 9-5 role again.
family transitions and parenting plans
Jamie and Carmen – Family transition from one to two homes
Jamie and Carmen were going through a divorce and were stuck on how to best manage this change for their children. They needed to find a brand new structure for their family: who would live where, what the children’s schedule would be, and how it would all work with their parents’ careers and different expectations regarding their lifestyle and living location. After unpacking everyone’s needs and desires and challenging quite a few beliefs that didn’t serve them, we found a setup that seemed impossible at first.
Today, Jamie’s and Carmen’s kids are well-adjusted and flow effortlessly from one home to another.
small business consulting
Joel and Estelle – Digital Roadmap for a non-for profit
Joel and Estelle run a non-profit company and bubbled with ideas on how to grow their business and the good that it brings to humanity. Given limited resources, they often clashed on where to invest effort next, which caused tension and inaction in their venture. They needed help to break down their many goals and desires into what became a digital roadmap.
Working together, I applied Human-Centered Design tools to help them arrive at clarity on where to channel their focus next to grow their business in a way that is scalable and supported by technology.
career change
Dimitri – From Banker to a Paramedic
Dimitri was my first ever client, and seeing his journey fueled my passion for this work. He came from a traditional Indian upbringing, still living at home with his parents in his late twenties, and making them proud as the first person in the family to have completed university and work in a successful bank job. However, there was one problem: John realized he didn’t want to live his life solely for his parents and needed to find a way to follow his passion of becoming a paramedic without gravely upsetting them.
We found a way. Today, Dimitri has been a paramedic for many years, and we’ve become friends.
action blocks
Ayesha – Finished her PhD thesis on time despite a major writer’s block
Maria’s PhD submission date was looming when she came to me. She suffered from a major writer’s block that she couldn’t explain. Unpacking the issue in a trusted environment, we uncovered trauma that she suffered as a child in sexual abuse. It may seem like a long shot, but the way our psyche works can be mysterious. Once she could connect the dots, Maria let go of her fears and got back to writing.
She later sought the support of a qualified psychologist to deep dive into her early childhood trauma and was able to liberate herself even further.
retainer for everyday challenges
Lindsey – Job, family, and anxiety challenges
Lindsey is one of my annual retainer clients. She simply reaches out with any of her challenges as they emerge to approach change strategically. Whether she was changing her corporate job and seeking clarity in her values to land the right executive role for herself or when she struggled with her mum going through dementia and the pressure she felt from her environment to feel sad about it.
Working with me, she found her own way of embracing palliative care and still finding happiness in everyday life.
relocation
Lucy – Moved across half the globe for her love
Lucy had a great life for herself in Europe as a lawyer, but when she met her Prince, who lived in Australia, it shook up her world, and she was torn between keeping her steady, successful life in Europe or following her heart to the other side of the world. Together, we worked on the pros and cons, her emotions, fears, beliefs, and meta-programs (unconscious habits of the mind) that were stopping her from following her gut and heart. She is now happily married and raising a little boy with her husband in Australia.
They have built a startup together, and she has a lot of flexibility to come to Europe at least twice a year.
