About Me

Hi there!

I am Ksenia Eliseev, a highly sensitive introvert, who enjoys deep authentic connection with people. As an engineer-turned-life-coach, I help deep thinkers and dreamers who feel like odd balls to feel seen, heard and empowered; to rediscover joy in their careers, leadership roles, relationships and creative projects on their own terms.

My Path to Coaching

After spending most of my life following the logical and conventional path of success, doing what was “expected” and “made sense,” I found myself feeling frazzled, tossed around by external demands and my own emotions, anxious and not being able to enjoy what I had. It felt like I was just going through the motions of my day.

That was my true self calling me to wake up, start using my own unique strengths and get off of the hamster wheel of chasing external rewards, other people’s agendas, repetitive thought patterns, self-defeating behaviors and victim mentality. My engineering career had been a crucial part of my journey and learning path; however, I knew it was time to explore other sides of myself, my talents, and expand ways how I serve others.

After 18 years working in engineering at large energy corporations, I’ve transitioned to a balanced blend of Wayfinder Coaching and engineering consulting, where I enjoy combining my experience in sciences and engineering with a passion for coaching, the inner workings of human behaviour, mindfulness and creativity.

I can say that now I feel more free to be myself and enjoy what I am doing every day.

I am here to help you find more joy in the life and career you already have, or explore other paths that feel more aligned.

Certifications
