ABOUT ME

Hi, I'm Daria
Here's my journey from burnout to helping others break free.

Where It All Started

I grew up in a financially struggling, emotionally tough household where I learned to over-function, over-give, people-please, and never complain.

Boundaries and negotiation was never part of my vocabulary.

This became my blueprint for life—always saying yes, never asking for more, pushing through no matter what. I didn't know it then, but these patterns would follow me everywhere.

Living the Pattern

Those childhood patterns shaped exactly how I showed up in my career. For years, I played by those same rules—working hard, climbing the ladder, doing everything "right." I had a job I once liked, but over time, it became a place I dreaded.

I was exhausted, uninspired, and suffocating, but I couldn't see another way.

The voice in my head said what it always had: Stay. Push through. Don't complain. It was safe. Logical.

Covid had just hit, and leaving didn't feel like an option.

But those old patterns that once kept me safe were now keeping me trapped. And staying came at a cost: burnout.

The Breaking Open

I spent a year out of work, rebuilding. For the first time in my life, I had space to question everything I'd been taught about how life "should" work.

That's when I discovered coaching—not as a career, but as a lifeline. I experienced its power firsthand. It gave me clarity, energy, and something I'd never had before: permission to imagine something more.

Then came the moment that revealed just how much I'd changed. I lost out on what seemed like a dream job, and instead of devastation, I felt... relieved.

That relief told me everything. I wasn't meant to go back to the old patterns. I was meant to leap into something completely new.

Three days later, I was in coach training.

Finding My Purpose

As I learned to coach others, I realized I wasn't just helping with career changes—I was helping people break the same generational patterns that had once trapped me.

The over-functioning, the people-pleasing, the never-asking-for-more.

The patterns that once protected me had to be dismantled before I could help others dismantle theirs.

Now that you know me better, let me introduce myself again

Career Reinvention & life expansion coaching

I specialize in helping ambitious people who feel stuck in jobs they're great at... but hate. People who are quietly screaming inside, "This can't be it."
