My story
The truth is, my passion is helping people understand that what they think and believe shapes their life. I have been interested in this since I was 11 years old, when I was introduced to Byron Katie through my mother.
The Work of Byron Katie taught me that it's not what happens in our life that creates suffering. It's our beliefs about it, the thinking we have in response to it, that creates suffering. From a young age I became fascinated by this and saw the potential of this way of observing and questioning our thoughts to help people. I would work with friends and family, always asking questions to help them unpack their psychological worlds.
I lost the plot a bit when life took me down a path of performance. I became a professional dancer with the belief that fame would somehow give me the attention I was addicted to. Dance went from being a way I moved energy as a child to an identity that was out of alignment with myself.
Two knee injuries that Western medicine couldn't cure took me down the rabbit hole, and somehow I ended up learning how to meditate, practising reiki, travelling the world, and stumbling into Dr. Helen Mosimann-Kogan, founder of The Two Birds Foundation. Helen changed my life and reminded me of the work I truly knew I was here to do: to help people see the unconscious thinking that is shaping their lives, causing them suffering, and derailing them from reaching their potential.
Helen's approach to self-inquiry was born out of her father's work, The Science of Acting, which stems from the Stanislavski method of acting. Helen integrated her father's approach into the field of personal development, where she has been training consultants for the last decade to deliver the courses she developed. I am one of those consultants.
As life would have it, I was guided to start teaching English as a way to become independent and move to Europe in 2024. What I thought would be just a side job has turned into the place where I put my training as a transformational consultant to practical use. This is where I help my English students see the invisible thinking that blocks them from communicating and expressing who they are.
I do not promise perfection. I promise authentic expression.
And in order to communicate authentically, you have to know who you are. Question your thoughts, increase your awareness, and you will come to know more and more of who you are.
So whether you are a non-native English learner struggling to express yourself, or someone who knows there are things you can't see holding you back from your next level, I'm your guy.
