Hi, I am Maryla. I am a leadership and personal development coach who works with ambitious minds on the verge of burnout, feeling stuck in the grind, or want more spark in life and work.
For many years, I thought I had it all together.
In my corporate roles, I became the person people came to when they felt lost, overwhelmed, or at a crossroads. Over 25 years in start ups and global companies, I worked across industries, lived in five countries, and coached colleagues and clients from around the world.
My multicultural background and meandering business journey gave me a unique lens. I could see both the bigger picture and what was quietly bubbling underneath the surface. People often told me they felt deeply seen, heard, and understood.
But it became harder and harder to pretend that everything was fine and match the successful exterior of my high performing self with how I was feeling. I was a perfectionist, people pleasing, imposter-syndrome-fighting-overachiever. I pushed through exhaustion, ignored my body, and stayed on autopilot because that's all I ever knew how to do. Until my body gave me signs I could no longer ignore.
I felt directionless and disconnected from myself. What once excited me left me drained. The tools that usually helped me stay ahead now left me feeling stuck. My internal resources felt depleted and I didn't know how to regain my energy nor how to move forward.
That's when I turned inward and decided to get the support I needed. Through deep inner work I stopped performing and started really paying attention to my mind, body, and values. I rebuilt from the inside out, rebalanced my energy, and reclaimed clarity and purpose.
Now, I help others do the same.
My holistic approach blends a warm presence and practical structure. My clients describe it as a dance between:
• Insight and action
• Strategy and soul
• Championing and challenging
• Logic and intuition
• Vision with pragmatism
I'll never hand you a ready made solution or give you advice. But I'll walk beside you, hold a safe space, and ask questions that help you hear your own wisdom. We'll translate that insight into clear, sustainable steps so you can create a life and career that feel exciting again.
I often work with:
• Leaders and experts in global organizations
• High achievers who are secretly exhausted
• People at a life or career crossroads
• Minds who are curious, self aware, and ready to do the inner work
Sessions are available in English, French, and Swedish.
I'd love to hear your story and explore how we might work together.
