Move beyond wishful thinking

Turn intentions into action

For ambitious professionals and expats ready to navigate career transitions that feel aligned with their strengths, aspirations, and life stage.

You sense it daily:

That gap between your current reality and what you're truly capable of.

On paper, things look good. You've built a solid career, developed valuable expertise, and earned respect from peers.

By conventional standards, you should feel satisfied. Yet there's a persistent sense that something more awaits you.

This is what I call your trapped potential

The space between your current reality and your true capability. It's the promotion you deserve but haven't pursued, the business idea you can't stop thinking about, or the fulfillment you're still searching for despite outward success.

This creates a subtle tension: functioning well within your comfort zone versus truly thriving in alignment with your deepest values.

Having navigated this gap myself during my transition from 13+ years in tech to transformational coaching, I now help others bridge this divide. My holistic coaching approach provides the structure, clarity, and accountability to transform untapped potential into deliberate action. Together, we'll not only close the gap but redefine what's possible for your life and career, honoring your achievements while creating space for your next level of growth.

Let's see if coaching is the right fit. Book a free discovery call and we'll talk through your goals and how I can help.

About me

I'm Andra, a transformational coach and psychologist in training.

I help ambitious professionals and expats navigate life’s challenges and transitions, especially when traditional career paths no longer align with your values or life stage.

My approach blends evidence-based tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and psychology with practical insight from over a decade in the tech world. I've worked in startups, scaleups, and founder communities, which gives me a clear understanding of both the emotional complexity of change and the real-world demands of professional life.

I’ve lived abroad for most of my adult life. That’s meant navigating change, uncertainty, and starting over—more than once. Over time, I’ve learned to move through discomfort instead of avoiding it. Letting go of what’s familiar isn’t easy, but it gets easier each time. With every shift, I’ve become more willing to ask: What do I actually want? What kind of life am I trying to build?

Portrait of Andra, transformational coach and psychologist in training

My career in tech gave me a front-row seat to both the excitement of rapid growth and the toll of burnout and misalignment.

I learned a lot, led meaningful work, met brilliant people, and built lasting relationships. But often, it felt like I was chasing someone else’s dream. Eventually, I couldn’t ignore the quiet truth: This isn’t enough.

What started to feel right, what felt mine, was the pull toward something more human. A genuine desire to help people move forward. To support real, lasting change rooted in self-awareness and aligned action.

In our work together, we’ll make sense of where you are now and where you want to go, personally, professionally, or both. We’ll identify what’s getting in the way and build a clear, realistic plan to help you move forward. I focus on small, intentional changes that build momentum over time, because meaningful transformation rarely happens all at once.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, questioning your path, adjusting to life in a new country, or simply seeking something more aligned, I offer a supportive, structured space for exploration and growth, without judgment, without fluff.

How we’ll work together

You're not here because you need more advice.

You're here because something needs to shift and you're ready to make it happen.

We'll work across three levels that shape your experience:

Personal level

We’ll get clear on what actually matters to you, untangle what’s holding you back, and start making decisions that align with who you really are.

Professional level

You’ll reconnect with your strengths, sharpen your direction, and build the confidence to go after what you actually want, not just what’s expected of you.

Systemic level

We’ll unpack how your environment, culture, and systems are shaping your reality, and how to navigate (or change) them on your terms.

This isn't about fixing you, it's about helping you reclaim your agency, build momentum, and stay accountable to the future you actually want.

I'll provide steady guidance and a clear framework, supporting you to break down challenges into manageable steps. You'll feel supported and empowered throughout, with realistic expectations and room for gradual, sustainable transformation.

Who I work with

I work with ambitious professionals and expats, especially those in tech, who are done pretending “it's fine”. They're ready to stop running in circles and start moving with intention.

My clients often:

Feel like they've been building someone else's vision and want to explore their own
Have sat through one too many meetings that should have been an email, wondering "What am I even doing here?"
Crave structure, clarity, and accountability to turn vague goals into real momentum
Are ready to challenge limiting beliefs, question the default path, and step into something more meaningful
Know they're capable of more but feel trapped
Want work that reflects their values, not just their résumé
Are committed to making consistent, courageous progress, one step at a time

Sounds familiar? Then you're exactly who I love to work with.

Client success stories

Mina N.

For months, I had this big goal that I had set for my freelance business and that I kept putting off because I didn’t quite know where to start. Andra’s coaching helped me make leaps towards it. We had six sessions together, in which we explored the challenges that were holding me back and the ways to overcome them. I left the sessions with a timeline of the things I want to achieve and very clear actions that made my goal that much more tangible. Andra is patient, friendly and great at asking challenging questions. She’s professional and very structured in her approach. I would recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a transformational coach!

Megan T.

I worked with Andra for six months exploring what work-life balance means to me and mapping it out. After our sessions together, I have a clearer vision of my personal values and how my business fits into MY life (and not the other way around)!

Ada U.

Having coaching sessions with Andra was an invaluable experience. She helped me find clarity and a sense of direction during my most challenging personal and professional life period. Her empathy and ability to ask insightful questions helped me explore my core life values and tackle self-negative talk. She provided me with tools that help me make a small step towards my future career goals every day. It was a truly transformative journey.

Rutger A.

Andra has helped me learn as a freelance creative to work more planned and structurally, how to follow through and explore business ideas and how to form a healthier relationship with social media, among other things. Besides that, she’s very polite and a joy to talk to!

Olga C.

Before working with Andra, I was at a turning point: ready to move from corporate life into my own practice, yet caught in invisible loops: doing much but not truly moving forward, weighed down by doubt and frustration. A close friend I deeply respect shared her transformative experience with Andra, and I immediately felt it would be the right match. Through our work, I learned to recognize my inner blocks, define my core values, clarify my processes, and most importantly, shift how I relate to perfectionism. Andra also helped me build a personalized toolkit that I apply daily (practical, effective, and truly tailored to me), which leaves me feeling equipped and confident. As a result, my practice feels more natural and alive, and I trust both myself and the process with greater ease. Insightful, caring, and attentive, Andra has a rare gift for noticing patterns, connecting details to the bigger picture, and tracing challenges back to their roots. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in transition, seeking clarity, or wanting freedom from patterns that hold them back.

Coaching services

My coaching is designed to provide the right level of support for your unique journey.

Rather than offering fixed packages, I work with each client to determine the optimal duration and frequency of our coaching relationship based on your specific goals and circumstances.

Most clients find that meaningful transformation occurs over 6-12 sessions spanning 3-9 months, but I'm equally comfortable with shorter-term focused interventions or longer-term developmental partnerships.

During our free discovery session, we’ll discuss:

Your specific goals and challenges
The appropriate timeframe for our work together
Session frequency that supports your momentum
Investment options that match your commitment level

This personalized approach ensures you receive exactly the support you need, no more, no less, to achieve your desired transformation.
