"Working with Kadi has been a truly grounding experience. She listens deeply which made me feel completely heard and understood, and her calmness, centered energy created a space where I could slow down, reflect, and truly focus. She has a unique gift for asking just the right questions at exactly the right moment — ones that gently but powerfully guided me toward insight. Through our sessions, I not only found clarity around my next steps related to my career development plan but also began building a stronger sense of resilience in how I will navigate the change. I would recommend Kadi's coaching, and she has helped me connect to what's truly important for me. Thank you for doing what you do with such care and intention — your future clients are in very good hands.”

"En tant que coach professionnel, j’ai pleinement conscience de la richesse qu’offre un espace d’accompagnement structuré. Et comme beaucoup, il m’arrive aussi de tourner un peu en rond sur certains sujets. Dans ce cadre, j’ai eu le plaisir d’être coaché par Kadi, et cette séance m’a offert une vraie clé de lecture sur une problématique qui comptait pour moi. Avec justesse, profondeur et bienveillance, elle m’a permis de reconnecter avec le besoin derrière le besoin, celui qui éclaire vraiment les prochaines actions à poser. Un rappel précieux : même lorsque l’on accompagne les autres, se faire accompagner à son tour est une nécessité et une vraie force ! Merci à toi Kadi, pour la qualité de ta présence et de ton accompagnement"

What’s in it for you?

Build Resilience That Lasts

In high-stakes, fast-moving environments, resilience isn’t optional — it’s essential. Coaching with me offers a grounded space to:

Reconnect with your values and purpose in the midst of complexity
Strengthen emotional agility and inner stability under pressure
Shift from burnout and overdrive to sustainable energy and clarity
Build confidence to lead with courage, even when things are uncertain
Develop practical tools to navigate transitions, setbacks, and ambiguity
Cultivate calm focus so you can respond, not just react

This isn’t just about bouncing back — it’s about bouncing forward with intention.

I’ve spent over 27 years in diplomacy — leading high-level negotiations, fostering development partnerships, and representing Estonia in global forums. From disarmament to humanitarian aid, from bilateral relations to multilateral diplomacy — I’ve worked across continents and sectors with the EU, UN, and OECD.

But beyond the strategy and global work, I’ve walked a deeply personal journey.

Relocating across countries, stepping into new roles, and adapting to shifting identities — I know the inner experience of global transition. I know how easy it is to lose sight of your purpose when your world is constantly evolving.

And I know what it takes to find your center again.

Coaching helped me reconnect with my values and purpose at a time when I felt overwhelmed and disconnected. It gave me space to reflect and realign with what matters most. It helped me build the resilience to lead — not just with strength, but with presence and clarity.

Human development has fascinated me since childhood. That early curiosity stayed with me — through years of management, policy, and international cooperation. It deepened during my leadership trainings, where I discovered the power of coaching. Eventually, I chose to undergo the professional coach training in the top leading institute- Erickson Coaching International( founded in Canada, Vancouver) with its global presence. The solution focused approach resonates well with my values and purpose.

Now, I am ready to share the transformation I’d experienced.

My purpose is clear:
To support diplomats, global professionals, and their families to stay rooted in their values, grow their resilience, and lead with clarity and humanity — even in turbulent times.

I’ve lived the pressure of high-stakes environments. I know what it’s like to hold everything together. And I know how powerful it is to have someone walk alongside you — helping you stay grounded in who you really are.

Currently on sabbatical leave from diplomatic service, I divide my time between Paris, Vancouver, and the quiet shores of Muhu island in Estonia — reflecting, coaching, and reconnecting with what truly matters.
