Hi! I'm Gerda Maliseva
- In the spring of 2023, I completed my studies at Riga Coaching School*, finishing the course "The Art & Science of Coaching" offered by the International Coaching Federation (ICF)
* Riga Coaching School (RKS) is the official representative of Erickson Coaching International (ECI) in Latvia.
Why did I choose to become a coach?
Whether I want to or not, there are times when I have to make choices, important decisions, start changing things, or look for new paths - whether in my job, education, or relationships. I truly believe that all the answers are within me, but sometimes it feels like I can't find them, and I genuinely don't know what to do or what's best.
In moments like that, coaching really helps me. A coach doesn't give advice; they help me understand myself, answer my own questions, plan how to solve challenges, or look at a situation from a different perspective.
Seeing how a conversation with a professional helps me "put everything in order," I decided to become that kind of support for others. And I've found that I'm really good at it! :)
