ABOUT ME
Everything distracted me, but most Of all myself
— Patti Smith
Born in Italy, European at heart, I've lived in London, Barcelona, and finally found my home in Amsterdam in 2018.
With more than 10 years of corporate experience, I've grown across various roles within Marketing, Sales, Procurement, and Project Management. On paper, my life & career were going great — I had ticked all the boxes and then some. But deep down, something still felt off. Something was missing. It was as if somewhere along the way, I lost myself.
I got distracted — not just by the noise around me, but by my own thoughts, expectations, and perfectly crafted plans.
Eventually, I found out that the path I was on no longer aligned with my sense of purpose. Through coaching, I realized that a mindset change was necessary and embarked on a journey to find what made me shine.
Along the way, I came across transformative practices including meditation, breathwork, journaling, and plant medicine that helped shift my perspective. These tools — together with coaching — changed my perspective and gave me the courage to take a leap of faith.
Shortly after, my purpose became clear: helping others tidy up the thoughts in their minds, rediscover the spark buried beneath stress and expectations, and find their own way to a happier life.
What makes my life happy today? Watching my dream of writing a movie script come to life: a surprising turn of events for someone who once believed they were born without creative skills!
I have completed my training at the Animas Centre for Coaching and I am currently working towards the Professional Certified Coach Credential (PCC) with ICF and the Senior Practitioner Accreditation with EMCC. I am also a certified Meditation Teacher from The Priority Academy.
ABOut SunQuest
SunQuest was born from the realization that life is a constant search for something: love, success, security, health, freedom... You name it! Ultimately, though, it all comes down to one thing for me: happiness. And nothing represents happiness quite like the feeling of a sunny day after a long, grey, rainy one (and in Amsterdam, we get plenty of those!).
There isn’t one single path that fits all. Each of us finds light in different places. But one thing we all share is that this light comes from within. It's up to us to embark on the QUEST of self-exploration to discover what truly makes us shine.
With SunQuest, I want to convey the message that we are our own SUN. We have the power to brighten any space, to warm the hearts of those around us, and to attract what we want, rather than chasing it. Being happy is possible; and finding the sun within ourselves is the first step of the journey.
