About me
About me
I am Roxana and I help people bring more joy into their lives.
I currently feel like a secret agent with a double identity. 😊 Why? Because I have a “day-job” as a research specialist in a big corporation and I have my dream job as a trainer & learning facilitator.
During the pandemic, I realized that I wanted to be more than just another number in a corporate environment and decided to follow my heart. I wanted to be a trainer since my freshman year of college, but I know now it wasn't the right time back then. More than 10 years ago, I thought that happiness meant filling your time with activities, being a "yes (wo)man" and talking a lot.😊 I can only smile thinking about past Roxana.
As a curious person that I am, I exposed myself to diverse experiences and international environments, participating in intercultural initiatives organized by the EU, studying and working abroad. During this time I have accumulated experience in related fields (eg: market research, customer experience, project management, training) that have the same red thread: people and communication.
In 2020 I returned to Romania and this is when my healing journey really began. When the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown started, I had just returned to Romania, so I had no job, no home, and no sense of security. I was almost 30 years old and had to move in with my parents. I felt like I was living in a chick flick movie. That was the moment when my childhood trauma came to the surface. I could no longer bear all the feelings repressed over the years that rushed like a torrent. So I experienced all kinds of therapies (integrative psychotherapy, but also cognitive behavioral therapy, breathing and meditation courses, hypnosis, somatic techniques, family and intention constellations, but also trainings on various topics). After a few years of soul searching, the sun has risen on my street too. All the pieces of the puzzle made sense when I became certified as a Process Communication Model trainer and understood that it's ok to be different and that I have unique resources according to my personality structure.
In 2022 I founded my own company, and in 2023 I launched the first personal development program - Discovery C.A.F.E. It was a transformative and exciting experience for all the women involved, including me. I just love the group energy and want to build a community of curious and self-aware people who accept themselves.
In the meantime, I learned that joy means attention to one's own needs, solid relationships based on trust and activities that bring me value or a good mood.
Over the past 12 years we have gathered a diverse range of resources and know-how so that I can personalize our experience of working together. It is my mission to guide people who want to discover themselves, bring more joy into their lives and learn how to adapt their communication to create harmonious relationships.
I currently support corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, freelancers and people at crossroads to bring a ray of sunshine to their communication through individual and group programs.
