A space to slow down, reflect, and redesign your next chapter with intention. One step at a time... .. . . .

Walk the spiral of growth — with clarity, calm, and courage

Life design coaching for people redesigning their second act

I'm Zsófi, psychologist and life design coach. If you're in transition, restarting, rebuilding, or rethinking your life (whether by choice or because life brought you to a place of existential restart), you're in the right place.

I work with people searching for their inner home and meaning. Between jobs. After a divorce or breakup. Starting a career or redirecting it after midlife realizations. Expats finding their footing in a new country. All kinds of people at the threshold of what comes next.

Think of me as an interior designer for your life, except I work on the meta level. I help you design the life you actually want to move into and arrive in. The one that finally feels like home.

What we’ll explore together

💫 Find clarity during transitions — Understand what’s shifting and why.


🌿 Redesign your path with confidence — Bring values & direction into alignment.


🔥 Reignite your energy and focus — Reconnect with what truly moves you forward.

What we’ll explore together


This isn't therapy. It isn't motivational coaching.


It's
educational healing — relearning the life essentials you were never taught, in a way that feels human, grounded, and sustainable.

We work through three core intentions:

Find clarity during transitions

Understand what's shifting in your life — and why it matters now.

Redesign your path with confidence

Bring your values and direction into alignment, so your choices feel true.

Reignite your energy and focus

Reconnect with what brings you forward — not what drains you.

Every coaching journey follows a natural rhythm — reflection, reconnection, redesign.
You’ll receive practical frameworks, gentle guidance, and real accountability to turn insights into movement.

Growth doesn’t move in straight lines.

It pulses. It loops back. It deepens with each turn.
Our thinking is often linear, but life flows in cycles.
When you begin to move with that rhythm instead of against it, transformation becomes steady — not forced.

It starts with a pause...

Before any plan, there’s a moment to arrive.


To see where you are, what’s been quietly asking for attention, and what wants to be met with honesty.


From there, we follow a rhythm that mirrors how real change unfolds:

Reflection

You begin by seeing what’s here.
Noticing loops, unspoken stories, and the patterns that shaped your current map.
Awareness softens the weight and brings clarity about your inner terrain.

What resources you have, what needs care, and how you got here.
This is the stage where knowledge turns into self-understanding — connecting the dots between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming.

Understanding where you are and what patterns brought you here.

Reconnection

Then, the movement turns inward.
You meet your values, your energy, and your inner compass again.


The noise of the mind translates into something the heart can actually follow.


This is where purpose and direction realign — where the life that wants to happen through you becomes visible.

Returning to your values, energy, and direction.

Redesign

Once there’s clarity, doing becomes natural.


We create the habits, systems, and structures that hold your new direction — so growth feels grounded, not forced.


Creativity flourishes when it has form; ideas come alive when they’re given space to land.


Together we build the bridge between your inner world and outer action.

Building habits, systems, and pathways aligned with your new clarity.

The rhythm we follow:

awareness → alignment → action → integration

It’s not therapy.
It’s not consulting.
It’s the space in between — where you remember how to work
with yourself, not against yourself.

Take your first step on the spiral

You might be here because:

You’re between chapters — a career shift, breakup, burnout, or a quiet “what now?”

You’ve relocated and are rebuilding from scratch — an expat, a nomad, or simply someone far from “home.”

You want more than surface fixes — you’re ready to understand yourself and design from that knowing.

You’re done chasing motivation — you want something sustainable and true.

If you’re redesigning your second act, this work is for you.

Every change begins with seeing clearly

The Mirror – Seeing Clearly Before Moving Forward

Before we begin to change anything, we pause to see what’s already true.

Most people come here when something has quietly ended — a chapter, a role, a rhythm that no longer fits.
This is where we stop trying to fix and start listening again.


Not through effort, but through honesty.

The Mirror isn’t about improvement.


It’s about remembering what’s already whole.

I meet you as you are, not as you "should" be.

In our sessions, the mirror is never judgmental.


It simply shows what is — the patterns, pauses, and truths you’ve already been sensing.


When you start looking with gentleness instead of pressure, insight begins to move through you.

I call this educational healing — where reflection meets design, and awareness becomes a living skill.

Because clarity isn’t a one-time event. It’s a practice.

The Way We Work

My approach is grounded in psychology, but it’s not clinical.


It’s creative, embodied, and systemic, working with your whole self:
the sharp mind that overthinks,
the body that knows before words do,
and the intuition you’ve been taught to silence.

Together, we translate complexity into clarity, not by simplifying life, but by finding its through-line:
the rhythm, the pattern, the next right step.

We work through three lenses:

Psychological clarity – seeing how patterns repeat until they’re understood enough to shift.

Embodied awareness – decisions begin in the body; we learn to feel your way forward.

Systems thinking – when one part shifts, everything shifts: work, relationships, purpose, self-talk.

It’s not about fixing — it’s about remembering

Meet your reflection with honesty and compassion

The life you design grows from your real center, not your coping strategies

Ripples grow steady, but someone has to begin. Touch the mirror of your inner being and see yourself transform

Closing the Circle

If this way of seeing speaks to you, let’s meet at the first pause. A gentle conversation where clarity begins.

My journey has been anything but linear

I’m a psychologist and life-design coach with a Master’s in Work & Organizational Psychology.


I work with people who sense deeply, think quickly, and often carry more layers than the world around them can easily grasp.

If you’re outwardly successful but restless, misunderstood, or quietly searching for a sense of arrival — you’re in the right place.

I spent more than a decade in the corporate world, helping international teams and leaders navigate change, culture, and complexity.
What began as HR and strategy work quickly turned into something deeper — because no system can evolve unless the people inside it do.


I saw that transformation and digitalization, all the big words on the wall, mean little if they’re not lived through trust, emotional awareness, and aligned values.

That’s how my focus shifted from running systems to redesigning them — preparing people for change through education, mindset work, and human skill-building.


I led leadership programs and group coaching projects for senior and emerging leaders, helping them turn fear into curiosity and hierarchy into collaboration.


It taught me that strategy is never about control; it’s about clarity — and that sustainable change always begins with one clear decision: to move from reaction to direction.

The same principles I once applied with organizations now shape my Life Design work with individuals.


Instead of market forces, we map internal ones — values, fears, hopes, and habits.
Instead of business goals, we design
human strategies: ways to align energy, attention, and choices so that life feels coherent again.

Since 2020, I’ve been fully self-employed, working one-on-one with individuals as a life-design coach.


Entrepreneurship taught me another truth — that freedom can be lonely if it isn’t shared.
So I followed a quiet pull back toward creative collaboration and joined the film world, first as a hands-on creator in special effects makeup and later
as an intimacy coordinator.

Film reminded me that every frame of life needs both structure and soul — and that creation itself is a form of dialogue.
There, I learned how vulnerability and precision can coexist; how the same attention that builds trust in a boardroom also shapes truth on a film set.

I no longer see these chapters as opposites.
What once felt like separate paths slowly braided into one way of seeing: that clarity and connection are not enemies, they’re companions.


That realization became the quiet seed of
TribeWithMe.

Not as a plan, but as a continuation of how I already worked and lived.

TribeWithMe is a space where reflection, creativity, and belonging meet.

Where people don’t come to perform or be fixed, but to reconnect with their own rhythm and find language for what’s been quietly evolving inside them.

My work isn’t about fixing or teaching, but translating — helping people hear what their system has been trying to say all along.


Today, I bring this cross-field awareness — corporate clarity, artistic sensitivity, and psychological grounding — into every conversation.

It allows me to meet people where they are, sense what’s unsaid, and design paths that fit the whole of who they are, not just their visible part.


Because every step of my own path has been the training.
And now, it’s the offering.

I’m not a guru. I’m a guide — someone who walks beside you and asks the questions that help you see more clearly.

The Three Ways to Walk the Spiral Together

Image

Every person I work with carries a different story — but the rhythm of growth is universal.


Some journeys call for deep one-to-one space.

Others unfold in shared circles.
And some begin quietly, through self-study and reflection.

Each path meets you where you are.


All of them move in the same rhythm — reflection, structure, movement.

One-to-One Life Design

Find your way of moving through the world

Everyone carries a different kind of intelligence, emotional, practical, creative, or reflective.


Some move fast, others take their time. Some lead with ideas, others with heart or steady hands.

These nine cards represent common ways people show up when they’re ready to redesign their life.


You don’t have to fit neatly into one; they’re starting points to notice your own rhythm and the kind of support that helps you grow.

A Life Design Session turns that awareness into direction. One clear, grounded step at a time.

⚖️ The Integrators

You care deeply about doing things right — not for perfection, but for integrity.
When life feels out of alignment, you sense it instantly.
A session helps you redesign systems and choices that match your real values.

🧱 The Builders

You make things happen. You show up, follow through, and keep things steady — but structure without meaning can feel empty.
Together, we look at what you’re building and whether it still matches what matters most to you.

💡 The Thinkers

Your mind sees connections others miss — ideas, insights, future possibilities.
But staying in your head can make action feel far away.
We’ll translate your clarity into grounded steps that bring vision to life.

🎨 The Creators

You need space to explore and express — yet self-doubt or scattered energy can block your flow.
Our work helps you reconnect with creative purpose, turning inspiration into real, sustainable rhythm.

🌾 The Connectors

You sense people deeply and hold space with ease, but often forget to include yourself in the circle you care for.
In our session, we balance empathy with boundaries — so giving and receiving flow naturally again.

🌙 The Wanderers

You’re curious and open, sensing that change is near but unsure what it looks like yet.
Together, we’ll name what’s unfolding and translate that curiosity into your next clear step.

🌺 The Resters

You’re in a slower season — catching your breath, recovering, or simply not rushing anymore.
A session helps you honor this pause and find the quiet kind of clarity that comes only from stillness.

🛡️ The Guardians

You’ve been the strong one — protecting, leading, keeping things running.
Now you’re ready to use that power differently.
In our work, strength becomes balance — a force guided by purpose, not constant effort.

🔔 The Keepers

You hold things together — homes, teams, friendships — often without recognition.
We’ll help you design a life that includes your needs too, so care and stability become shared, not carried alone.

Growth doesn’t happen in a rush

It unfolds in small, steady reflections that keep you aligned with yourself

Every few weeks, I share writings, micro-tools, and gentle sparks of inspiration,
notes from the spiral to help you move with your own rhythm.


No noise, no spam, only warmth and usefulness.

The path to begin


This work is simple and human. We create a steady rhythm so insight turns into movement

Image

Orientation Call

We meet for 20–30 minutes online.


You share what brings you here — I listen for patterns, energy, and what feels most alive right now.

This first conversation is also a moment to sense whether this work, and this timing, are the right fit.


Sometimes I may suggest other forms of support alongside or instead of coaching (like therapy, somatic or art-based work, or medical guidance) if that would serve you better.

My role is to help you find the right next step, even if that step isn’t with me.

Outcome: clarity about focus, readiness, and fit.
We design frequency, focus, and format.


You’re always free to ask questions or pause before deciding — we only begin when it feels right in your body and your schedule.

Image

Mapping the Terrain

During the first few sessions, we form an understanding of the landscape you’re navigating.


We explore challenges, existing resources, and the rhythms that already work in your life.

This stage is about awareness, not speed — seeing clearly before deciding where to move.

Outcome: a shared map and a sense of direction grounded in reality.

Image

Things Get Done

Growth doesn’t happen in a straight line — it moves in spirals and iterations.


We build a steady rhythm: reflection, action, integration, rest.

Learning when to pause and when to move becomes part of your practice.


This is where clarity turns into daily action, structure, and self-trust.

Image

Fine-Tune Together

Every few sessions, we pause to reflect.
What shifted? What still needs breath? What feels complete?

If the work feels ready to close, we wrap up intentionally.


If it wants to deepen, we refine the strategy and begin the next spiral with new insight.

You’ll leave with tools, rhythm, and momentum — a grounded system you can sustain on your own.

Outcome: integration, renewal, or closure.

Image
What you can expect
A calm, confidential space that is both kind and direct
Psychological grounding blended with creative and systemic tools
Honest feedback about what might truly serve your process
Practical design of habits, systems, and new choices
What I ask from you
Presence, curiosity, and openness to experiment
Willingness to bring both reflection and real-life action
Respect for time, boundaries, and shared rhythm
Clarity isn’t something we find once.
It’s something we practice — together.

Reflections from the Tribe

"She sees things I can't see on my own."
"With Zsófi, I feel heard. She has this way of zooming out and helping me understand the bigger picture, connecting dots I didn't even know were there. She brings in book recommendations and frameworks that help me make sense of what's happening. I always look forward to our conversations because I know I'll leave with new perspectives I wouldn't have found on my own. Working with her feels like a real collaboration."

Emily Brown - expat professional

"She helped me stop drifting and start deciding."
"I was stuck between jobs, unsure what I even wanted. Zsófi helped me articulate what I was actually looking for. There were hard moments, but I always felt she was with me. Now I'm in a role I genuinely want, and I'm more grounded in other areas of life too."

Sarah William - career transitioner

"She helps me understand myself without judgment."
"Zsófi creates a space where I can be honest about where I'm stuck. She's patient, insightful, and doesn't sugarcoat things, but she does it with so much care. She's approachable, has a good sense of humor, and makes even difficult topics feel manageable. I feel like I'm finally moving forward instead of staying in the same loops."

Jessica Lee - client in transition

The Architecture of Change

The work is both emotional and systemic — soul meets logic

Clarity is not a moment. It’s a practice.

If something resonated here, take it as your sign to begin.

You don't need permission to redesign your life.
You earn the right of passage by walking your path.

Let's walk it together, one turn of the spiral at a time.
