Hi, I'm Mila!
I am a Certified Leadership and Transitions Coach (ICF, ACC) with decades of financial leadership and consulting/advisory experience at Deloitte, EY, Time Inc., Cisco Systems, and other firms.
My education and career took me across five countries and two continents, from Chernivtsi, Ukraine, where I grew up, to New York, London, Luxembourg, and Amsterdam, where I live.
My coaching practice is grounded in nearly a decade of personal work through mindfulness, meditation, coaching, and pilgrimages on the Camino de Santiago. Through them, I experienced first-hand that when we create space to become aware of and release what holds us back, clarity, energy, and new possibilities open. That is the work I now bring to my clients.
I offer deeply personalised 1:1 coaching grounded in Energy Leadership™, and somatic practice, working with you at both the human and the strategic level. At the heart of my work is the belief that most external blocks have an internal root, and that real, sustainable change becomes possible when we address both together.
