Transformation, lived first.
This work was not built from theory alone, but from years of reinvention — across continents, disciplines, identities and ways of living.
My story is not the story of someone who followed a straight path. It is the story of leaving what no longer fit, stepping into the unknown, and slowly building a life — and later a body of work — rooted in truth, freedom and lived experience.
The life that no longer fit
My academic path was rooted in business, finance and international studies, yet early on I could already feel that a conventional life would never be enough for me. Even before I had the language for it, I could feel that the path laid out in front of me stable, predictable, socially approved was not the one I was here to live.
So I left. There was no perfect plan, only a deep inner knowing that my life had to move in a different direction. That decision became the beginning of a much deeper transition one that would reshape not only where I lived, but who I became.
Years of exploration, study and devotion
I spent years living in Asia, especially in Thailand, where my path opened into something far deeper than travel. I worked as an English teacher, but alongside that, I was immersing myself in other ways of living and understanding the human experience through yoga, meditation, Buddhism, embodiment, healing, and direct study in temples and spiritual communities across Thailand, Myanmar, Nepal and India.
Those years changed me. They stripped away identities I had inherited, and brought me closer to questions that would stay with me for life: What is true? What is freedom? What does it mean to live in alignment with who you really are?
Turning vision into real work
When I returned to my home country, I did not come back to fit into an old identity. I came back to build. Over the years, that meant founding one of the first yoga studios in Romania to bring together teachers from multiple traditions, creating the Thai Healing Arts Institute, training massage therapists, teaching internationally, and eventually building BODHI Retreats into one of the most trusted transformational travel brands in Eastern Europe.
Through BODHI, I went on to organize hundreds of retreats and journeys around the world from the Himalayas to the Amazon, from cultural immersions to deeply transformational experiences held in nature, ceremony and authentic local connection.
Thousands of people have traveled through these spaces. That part of my life matters because it is where inner work met reality. It is where vision became structure, where meaning became leadership, and where transformation had to be translated into logistics, responsibility, communication, teams, trust and delivery.
Why I guide this work today
Everything I offer now grew out of that path. Not only the spiritual study. Not only the years of travel. Not only the businesses I built. But the deeper thread underneath all of it: the experience of living through transition, leaving behind old identities, and learning how to build a life and way of working that actually feel true.
That is why my work today is not just about coaching, and not just about business. It is about helping people move through life and career transitions with more clarity, self-trust and direction and, for some, helping them turn that transition into meaningful work, often through retreats, transformational journeys, and experience-led businesses rooted in who they are becoming.
This is what SoulPath was born from. And it is also what shapes my 1:1 work: guiding people through the moments when an old life no longer fits, and a new one is asking to be built.
