Coaching Options

Elevate Your Life & Career

Coaching Programmes

At some point in your career and life, “working harder” no longer brings clarity or fulfilment.

You may feel stuck in a role that no longer fits, unsure about your next step, or quietly doubting yourself despite years of experience. Many expat professionals in Brussels reach this point — successful on paper, but disconnected from their direction, confidence, or sense of purpose.

My coaching supports you in gaining clarity, confidence, and a clear future vision — through compassionate but honest conversations that turn small mindset shifts into real, lasting personal and professional change.

My Coaching Approach

Structured and strategic

with clear goals and direction

Warm and compassionate

creating a safe space for honest reflection

Grounded and practical

 without “woo-woo” or empty motivation

I combine professional coaching tools and exercises with in-depth conversations and insights. Tools support the process — but clarity, self-trust, and conscious decision-making are always at the centre.

Having lived and worked in Brussels for over 16 years, changed jobs multiple times, and made a full career shift myself, I understand the pressure, expectations, and self-doubt that often come with an international career.

Coaching is for you if:

you are an expat professional living and working in Brussels

you struggle with self-doubt or imposter syndrome

you feel the labour market expectations are high — and fear not being “good enough”

you feel stuck, burned out, or dissatisfied with your current role

you want clarity about your career or life direction

you want meaningful change, not just short-term relief

You don’t need to have all the answers.

You do need the willingness to reflect honestly and take conscious steps forward.

Coaching Programmes

I offer three coaching programmes, depending on where you are right now and how deep you want to go.

All programmes:

  • consist of 60-minute sessions
  • are fully tailored to your situation
  • focus on tangible personal and professional outcomes

If you’re unsure which programme fits you best, we’ll explore this together during the free Introductory Call.

Commitment & Flexibility

Coaching works best with commitment — and I also respect personal autonomy.

  • Payment plans are possible

  • Long-term subscriptions can be cancelled if you feel you’ve achieved what you needed

  • We regularly reflect on progress and direction

The goal is not dependency — but confidence and self-reliance.

Testimonials

Monika is a highly knowledgeable and empathetic coach, with particular expertise in supporting expats in Brussels and she has a solid background in the EU institutions.

I greatly enjoyed working with her, she knows when to listen and when to offer advice, and she brings a well-structured approach to each session. At this stage in my career, it was invaluable to have someone impartial to talk to, who could guide me towards a path of professional self-fulfilment.

Monika helped me greatly, and together we explored several areas where I wanted more clarity and personal growth. I can wholeheartedly recommend Monika as a coach.

I highly recommend her! Monika not only has the expertise but also a large number of grateful clients throughout Europe. If you’re looking to find life satisfaction, clarity, and achieve your professional and personal goals, working with Monika will be an excellent step. She’ll not only help you set a clear vision for your career but also equip you with the strategies to thrive in today’s competitive job market. Best of luck!

Thanks to sessions with Monika I learnt to be more positive. I understood that all bad and negative situations which are happening to all of us are to give us good lessons to teach us something.

Each session was amazing and very emotional and concentrated on me- this is what I needed to slow down for a moment and think of me. After each meeting I had a lot of energy and motivation and completely different vision of the things we were working on during sessions. It was really very great! Thank you, Monika!

Working with Monika helped me realise that the approach I was already taking wasn’t wrong—it just needed a few small adjustments. That shift gave me much more clarity and calm during a challenging time.

Monika also shared practical, down-to-earth advice for handling interviews. The most valuable tip? To simply be myself, rather than trying to guess what an employer might want to hear. That mindset change made a real difference.

I also really appreciated the pre-session survey. It pushed me to reflect deeply on where I was stuck, the limiting beliefs I was holding, and what I could actually do to move forward.

Overall, working with Monika gave me the tools to better understand the job market—and to face it with more confidence and realism.
