The coaching with Irina has helped me see more possibilities, change patterns, and take more responsibility for my own development. I've become more aware of my actions and their impact. I now have greater faith in myself, my possibilities, and my qualities. Very inspiring to have you as a coach, Irina!

I am a developer that worked in four different companies during four years. I didn't feel like I was growing as much as I should. It frustrated me.
Before the coaching, I was flooded with thoughts about what I can do to get out of my situation, but these thoughts went in all directions and made me feel like I was stuck. I knew I needed to have a clear goal to work towards, and that required me to sit down and actually work towards mapping it out. I knew this but put it off all the time and just got frustrated and restless.
After I started the coaching, I was able to filter my thoughts. Between each session, I had specific questions I worked on finding answers for. It gave me enormous clarity on what I need to work on. The questions Irina asked helped me come up with a system of how I can work with it to find out what I really want and how I can make small achievable goals to get where I want, so that this doesn't just become an empty talk.
Another thing I really appreciated was that Irina worked as a developer for many years, and then I didn't have to "change language" when talking to her. The conversations could be as technical as they needed to be. It was a rewarding experience, where I felt heard and challenged with tough questions that helped me map out what I want.
I highly recommend this! Thank you very much, Irina!

I just have to say that the sessions I have had with Irina have been incredibly educational and exciting. Irina has a very pleasant and trustworthy personality, with whom it has been a lot of fun to spar.
She reflects and notices an incredible amount, which means that I have experienced the conversations we have had as very valuable! The coaching period with Irina has given me a fantastic boost in progressing towards my goals, both in work and in private life. She has helped me to find out for myself what changes and choices I need to make in order to reach my goals.

I have made small changes throughout the entire coaching process that helped me reach my goal. Even though I hadn't achieved it by the end of the sessions, I learned a lot about myself during the process.
I realized that the goal I set at the beginning wasn't as relevant to me in the end. I am happy I went through the process of change together with Irina. She is an engaged, professional, and positive person.

It was incredibly comforting to have someone to talk to unfiltered, without worrying about being judged or having someone try to fix things for me. I didn't feel pressured to impress her, she was there to help.
I knew she would challenge me and ask tough questions, which was exactly what I was looking for. It also helped that Irina had worked as a developer, so I didn't need to explain everything in detail and could freely use professional tech language in our conversations.

The coaching sessions with Irina have challenged my narrow perspective on my work situation and provided me with enough clarity to visualize the opportunities that exist where I am and how I can explore them. They've given me direction on how to go about discovering what I want.

Coaching is a very good tool for personal development. I'd gotten a bit stuck in a rut, and the coaching has definitely helped me find a direction again. I feel lighter, freer, have better self-confidence, and lowered shoulders.

Irina is a very nice person who has given me lots of feedback, and she listens very well to what I say. She uses that information to challenge me to find answers myself.
I am very satisfied with the sessions I have had with Irina. She has already helped me achieve several important milestones in my private life and work. Highly recommend Irina!
