WHO IS ELPIDA

Elpida Trizi brings to coaching more than 20 years of experience in corporate communication and international relations, of which 10 years abroad. Curiosity, growth mindset and her own self-discovery quest led her to coaching. Her coaching focuses on the whole person, heart and mind, body and soul, through a unique blend of storytelling, wellbeing practices and a compassionate presence. Elpida creates a safe space to explore deep emotions, allowing everyone to express themselves and choose from the heart -not only the head. She loves working with people who find themselves burned out or at a crossroads, inspiring them to create a life they love. Her own life experiences taught her the power of slowing down to awaken new possibilities and aligning who we are with what we do. Passionate about people and their stories across the globe, Elpida believes that connection is at the core of who we are and what we do. We all long to connect with ourselves, another person or group, even with something greater than us.
More information about Elpida is available here.

WHO IS TANIA

Tania Teixeira is a life leadership coach with approximately 20 years’ corporate experience, including public health and international relations. She has a passion for people, for experiencing deeper fulfillment and meaning in life, and the power of connection. Through travel, yoga and mindfulness, she discovered the value of slowing down and breathing, the strength in wandering and wondering, and getting "found" in the midst of something bigger, that lives at the heart of all of us. A believer in the gentleness of allowing and becoming, she loves to work with people seeking to be present in their lives, to embrace themselves fully and lead with intentionality and responsibility. Tania holds that everyone is a leader, and we can awaken to embrace our whole selves, especially the parts cast in shadow, with courageous kindness. She brings this integration to coaching and invites people to live their truest expression in the world with lightness and joy.

WHY JOIN THE WONDER WANDERERS

In a world that often equals productivity with progress, this is an invitation to intentionally press pause and wonder what is possible. This requires some effort; same as the effort to reach this amazing place. It is also an invitation to slow down and allow a sense of wonder, of not-knowing, as likely not everything, in life and work, always goes as planned.
Research shows that awe and wonder have a positive effect on our wellbeing. They reduce stress, benefit our creativity and allow inspiration to kick in when we find ourselves stuck. Wonder also increases our capacity to be with the unknown, take risks and bounce back from the challenges life throws at us. Finally, as ancient Greeks claimed, "wisdom begins in wonder”. Allowing a sense of curiosity, fascination and bewilderment at something new, unexpected and larger than ourselves.

HOW IT WORKS

Through opening-up our senses, breathing and observing nature.
Through walking and conscious movement, allowing introspection, cultivating deeper self-awareness and a sense of inner harmony.
Through deep conversations and sharing in a safe, non-judgmental space.

WHAT IS IT ALL ABOUT

Four full days to slowdown, disconnect from our "busy” routines and multiple screens.
Four full days to unblock our minds, reawaken what makes us feel alive, reconnect the heart and the mind, the body and the soul.
Four full days to start building the foundations for an authentic, "feel-good” life, through conscious choices.

OUTCOME

There is no magic wand when it comes to personal transformation. Like anything else in life, the more you put into this journey, the more you will get out of it. Our wish is for everyone to experience what it feels like to:
  • Be fully heard, seen and understood.
  • Lower the inner and outer "noise”.
  • Move from a know-it-all place to a more sensing and feeling place.
  • Reconnect with ourselves, each other and nature.
  • Truly have the agency to lead our lives, our way, at our pace, while making a fulfilling contribution to the world around us.
Eventually, everyone will walk away with some new practices to integrate into their daily routine. Feeling more grounded, trusting their intuition more and being inspired by the possibilities inside and around.
