My Story
Are you feeling like the stress and obligations of a chaotic daily life is leaving no space for an intimate relationship?
Or like the more your search for a partner, the further away you feel from finding love?
Moving on from a bad experience, mending a broken heart, getting back the ability to hope, and the courage to take the leap into the unknown, is both difficult and scary — I know.
As a relationship coach I help career-oriented singles gain the courage to step outside their business lives and open up to new experiences and relationships and start dating quality local people… But I was on a long journey to get to this point myself.
My personal story begins in Israel. Born to an Israeli dad and an English mom, we didn’t have much money, and both my parents had to work 2 jobs. My 2 younger brothers and I learned from a young age to be independent, that success comes from believing in yourself and working hard. That we were smart and had the abilities to achieve anything we wished for. We had to create our own opportunities and not be afraid to question situations that felt wrong.
Military service
Like every 18 yr. old in Israel, I served 2 years in the army. From one moment to the next, I felt that my childhood was over. At just 18, I was given a huge responsibility. One I couldn’t mess up. I was told that people’s lives were depending on my fast, smart and accurate decisions. Suddenly, I was trusted by people who didn’t even know me. But they believed in me, so I needed to trust my healthy intuition, remind myself of what my parents had taught me, and keep an open and good channel of communication with my officers and the team I was working with.
Traveling the world
Beginning a new life
Starting a family
So, I worked my way up, learning about the culture and in parallel, building a career. I was so focused on my individualistic achievements that I didn’t really question my relationship. I had married my first husband and together we had our beautiful little baby boy. Everything was supposed to be perfect… It just wasn’t…
I felt so conflicted: Was I giving up too easy? Or was I right to question a situation I didn’t feel made either of us happy?
Today, I know that I made the right decision. If we hadn’t ended our marriage, I wouldn’t have met my current husband. I wouldn’t have experienced 20 years and counting in a strong, healthy relationship. And most importantly, I wouldn’t have had my two youngest boys.
Helping others
They felt like there was no one they could talk to about having hurt or disappointed their partners. They saw their friends in good and stable relationships and felt ashamed sharing their own problems with them.
Staying neutral, and without judgement, I listened. Being in a long-term relationship myself, I understood the work involved in keeping the partnership a happy and healthy one.
I believe that many problems can be solved with direct and open communication, but that can only be achieved with self-confidence, belief in your own ability to improve, trust in the person you are opening up to, and the ability to visualize a possible future that is better than the situation you are currently in.
If you don’t believe you can resolve the issue you are addressing, you will not see the reasoning behind opening up in the first place. Any problem can be solved, with the right perspective and by asking the right questions.
Becoming a relationship mentor
Through my work, I have discovered that what is holding so many people back from finding true love and lasting relationships is not knowing what they really need from another person. We all think we know what we want. But without truly understanding ourselves, we look in the wrong directions, and waste time and energy looking to fill check lists which have very little to do with really making ourselves happy.
Today, I help people find love, and keep it.
Are you ready to make a change in the way you search for love? To discover what you really are longing for in a partner? To step outside your comfort zone and open up to new feelings and experiences? Are you finally ready to date quality people who you can see as potential partners?
Then let this be the moment you do something about it. Our first talk is just a phone call away.
