Pauliina Mapatha

Pauliina was a fantastic pod leader and coach. Starting this 6 week
programme I was looking to gain confidence in a major work transition
in my life. I was nervous, anxious and unsure. I can confidently say, with
the help of Pauliina I have made the first steps towards a new career and
am feeling confident and focused on my goals.
The insights gained have not only affected my perspective and
confidence in work but has had a big positive impact on the
communication between my partner and I. It is true when you work on
one are of self-development and growth other areas naturally follow
suit.

Pauliina is a wonderful and exceptional coach! She’s extremely empathetic, firm and kind. Her coaching programme has helped me become a better version of myself and I have gained not only a trustworthy supporter and confidant, but I gained a friend and sister.

I was transitioning from a corporate job to entrepreneurship and needed to define my purpose and the direction I wanted to take my business and my life.  Pauliina helped me get clarity on my values, my vision and my goals.  She was supportive whilst also challenging me and holding me accountable.  She brought a calmness to the process that alleviated my anxiety and kept us moving forward.  I am more confident now about becoming an entrepreneur thanks to Pauliina’s guidance and support.

Pauliina really helped me identify my values and clarify my goals, and encouraged me to take baby steps towards my better future. She coached me through a period of shock and change – new motherhood, adjusting to the pandemic, remote work, and moving country – and made me realise that no matter how things might seem out of my control, there is always something I can do. She shared coping tools with me and supported me to improve my attitude and focus on self-care. Pauliina’s coaching encouraged me to be more proactive and to manage difficult situations in accordance with my values and what’s best for me and my family.

The time with Pauliina was a transformative experience, which, did not only affirm the desire to follow my passion, but also renewed my sense of self-worth and self-confidence. I feel refreshed, determined and ready to pursue my dream. She is the person I had to partner with at this point in my life and I’m grateful for her selfless, knowledgeable approach and the bond of trust which developed between us. 

Pauliina is knowledgeable and approachable yet professional in her conduct. Through her valuable insights, she guides the individual to express themselves without any reservations or fear.

Pauliina took me on as a client in October 2020 during an exceedingly difficult time globally and when I was personally at a low point.  I suffered another burnout.  I knew I needed help, but had no idea what I needed and where to even start.  Pauliina made me feel comfortable and safe and that she had my best interest at heart.  After a chat or two we figured out where to start and what to work on.  I trusted Pauliina and the process.  I learned so much about myself and the massive impact my past had on my thought process now.  How this impacted my confidence and what lead to my burnout.  I learned what my needs are in life and for the first time I listened and acted on them.  I am extremely grateful for the tools I take away especially how to communicate with the different personality types and improved positive intelligence.  My improved self-confidence has changed me the most. – –

Pauliina is an integrated, powerful human being that is inspired and seasoned in the corporate world. She has lived across many cultures and continents and has a massive skillset in corporate change and innovation that would benefit any leader or company in achieving their goals. She has the ability to firmly and yet gently support the person in change and make lasting, grounded changes.

Pauliina conducted sessions professionally and with confidence. She was well-prepared on a weekly basis with the relevant material for each session.

Sessions were also on time and although I feel that some sessions were intense and should be cut shorter, it is the prerogative of the client to guide the coach in this matter.

In general, I believe the program should be made compulsory for any person in a workplace, to be able to adapt, cope, plan and develop personal knowledge within one’s working environment.

Pauliina did a fantastic job as a life coach. I learned a lot about myself and how to cope and function in my workplace and at home. She guided me with confidence and gave me the tools I needed to get to my end goal. I am now a better version of myself on this daily journey. 

She will be an asset to anyone looking to better themselves, either in their work environment or their home life.

For any curious, unsure, aspiring entrepreneur or business owner Pauliina Mapatha lays a good foundation on how to put an idea on paper and then to action. She provides one with the necessary tools and resources to ensure that you commit yourself to your business and make it a success.
