Extra Skills
Life Coaching, experience of burnout and returning to work afterwards are the ones that come to my mind when I think of my skills. I know what it is like to feel lost and overwhelmed, I also know how to come back from that, to calm and bring a stillness, a safe space to talk about it. That is what you can expect from any supervision sessions with me.
