About me. |
|
Hello, you. My name is Elina. I do what I do because I am curious about people and genuinely want to be of service in any way I can.
Over the years, I have worked as a leader in incredible companies like The Boston Consulting Group and Kempinski Hotels and more. I have lead teams, transformations, implemented strategies. My journey has always had two equal sides that I kept separate - building my professional career while growing my understanding of wellness and holistic practices. But this is how life works - it all comes together eventually. The more we grow as a person, the better leader we become - in our private and professional lives. I have studied the way we think, act and feel for years. But understanding the link between our physiology and psychology goes beyond courses and education. It is a lifelong journey and a commitment to self reflection and learning. And often the most spiritual lessons have been outside the meditation cushion. For me, the hardest test on my skills has always been taking what I know in theory and applying to my own life; doing the hard work - managing my own emotions, resolving difficult situations and choosing compassion - to others and self - even when it is hard. We all go through challenges, often silently. But nothing in nature grows in vacuum. And neither do we. Shall we grow together? |
