„You should teach English and work with people,“ a friend of mine from Texas told me when I was 17. Little did he realize how this has shaped my professional path ever since. I gathered all my courage and started teaching – at high school, university and especially in companies. The feeling that you can share knowledge and skills and watch people grow is difficult to describe. Later I got an offer to become a personal development trainer. This made me realize that when you face the career you dreamed of, you just know it. The biggest barrier to self-development is ourselves. I help others overcome their barriers.
