I have worked with Stania in three different capacities – the 12-week life coaching and mentoring program, the 10-week Vipassana and guided meditation training, and more recently, a laser coaching session. In all modalities offered, Stania brings to the table expert guidance, thought provoking questions, insightful tools and unwavering support.

I was experiencing turmoil in my life when I first started working with Stania. I was in a toxic job, questioning my life purpose and struggling to navigate what appeared to be an uncertain future. Not only was I distanced from my intuition, but I was shutting down emotionally. Stania offered both analytical tools and guidance that proved invaluable. Through the many insights into personality via the Enneagram tool and the additional Inner Child work, I came to see myself from a more objective standpoint, one which brought to light my blind spots and areas in my life that required more attention. With her support and intuitive questioning, she gently guided me along the path of self-discovery. I decided to quit my job and take a sabbatical, focusing on personal growth.

Several months into learning and exploring my new beginning, filled with a burgeoning desire to meditate at a deeper level, I began Vipassana instruction with Stania. She put a lot of thoughtful preparation into each week’s session, providing historical background and carefully crafted mediation exercises. Through daily journaling of my developing practice, I was able to witness an internal unfolding of the very principles she was teaching me. Our weekly check- in sessions furthered my application and understanding.

Most recently, prior to a major surgery that was causing me a lot of anxiety, I did a 30-minute laser coaching session with Stania. I came into the session feeling overburdened by the lack of control I perceived: I convinced myself that things that could go wrong in the surgery, would go wrong. In just 30 minutes, Stania was able to quickly identify why I felt anxious and assisted me in reframing the situation so that I felt more positive about the overall outcome. I found myself surrendering control and placing more faith in my doctor and those caring for me. A lot of the stress I was feeling quickly dissipated. It was a very powerful session, one that greatly affected my overall well being.

Stania is an adept listener and observer – she truly cares about her clients, and puts so much of herself into what she does. In working with Stania, I have come to a deeper knowing of myself. Her support and encouragement creates a safe space where I am free to explore who I am without fear of judgement. I am very grateful that our paths have crossed in this lifetime, and I look forward to our future coaching sessions.
