Hi, I’m Raphaela — Practical Philosopher and Transformational Coach.
For most of my childhood and teenage years, I lived in survival mode.
Shaped by trauma and disconnection, I felt small, afraid, broken. I didn’t know who I was — only that something was deeply wrong, both within and around me.
My healing began when I stopped living by default and began choosing something different. When I stopped numbing and started listening — inward, deeply, honestly — I began asking questions that truly mattered: Who am I? What do I believe? What is truth, really?
Studying Philosophy gave me the tools to not only understand the world around me better, but also to explore how humans relate to themselves and others. It was here that I began to realize that true transformation begins from within. My experiences with trauma, personal growth, and philosophy naturally led me toward coaching — a way to combine deep introspection with tangible change.
The biggest transformation came when I let go of control and opened myself to the unknown. When everything in my world collapsed, I chose to trust — life, the universe, and myself. That choice led to a new chapter — healing, rebuilding, and discovering a calling to support others in their own transformations.
When my husband and I made the life-changing decision to move to the U.S., it felt like the universe was clearing the way for me to step fully into my coaching career. I began formal Professional Certified Coach training, grounded in the belief that reconnecting with our true selves is the key to living a fulfilling life.
Today, I guide others through that same kind of self-aligned transformation. Through philosophical reflection and transformational coaching, I help clients navigate their inner landscape with courage, authenticity, and clarity. I believe that the answers we need are already within us — and my role is to help you uncover and access them, so you can create a life, a career, relationships, and paths that feel deeply honest, meaningful, and free.
Whether you’re just beginning or have spent years in inner work, I offer a space where fresh clarity, refinement, and profound realignment can emerge. I’m here to support you in uncovering the truth that lies within.
Let’s unlock your potential together.
