Life & career transition coaching

"Between stimulus and response, there is a space.
In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." — Viktor Frankl

About me

I am Isabel — a life and career transition coach.

Some people come to me through a professional transition: a new role, a promotion, an international move, redundancy, or organisational change.

Others arrive through something more personal: a milestone birthday, a shift in a relationship, a child arriving, growing up, or not arriving at all — or simply the quiet realisation that the life they've built no longer fits the person they are becoming.

With more than 30 years in global Life Sciences leadership, I have helped my teams navigate change, adapt to new business models, and consistently deliver results.

My coaching journey began 10 years ago with colleagues and gradually grew beyond corporate environments. I hold a certification in Transformative Coaching and have trained in Mental Fitness and Systemic Coaching.

And alongside it, I spent time doing my own inner work. Mindfulness, psychology, spirituality, and meaning are simply part of how I live.

I am of French origin, Spanish by heart, and Swiss by choice. Childhood travels, life in four countries, a cross-cultural marriage, and a teenager who carries all of it: I know what it means to be made of many worlds and to find yourself there.

Services

Transitions come in many forms.

Some are professional, some personal — most are both. Whatever brought you here, this is a space to slow down, look clearly, and move forward with intention.

  • New role or promotion
  • International move or relocation
  • Redundancy or restructuring
  • Leadership challenges
  • Finding meaning at work

Leadership transitions

For leaders and professionals working with teams who want depth alongside performance — integrating the professional, the personal, and the self.

  • Leading through uncertainty
  • Thriving with AI fluency & Emotional Intelligence (EI)
  • Balancing impact and wellbeing
  • Values-led leadership
  • Multicultural and global contexts
  • Presence and authenticity

Life transitions

For those at a personal crossroads — where something has shifted, or the life built no longer fits the person you are now.

  • Milestone birthdays
  • Relationship or family changes
  • Identity and self-discovery
  • Loss, grief, or reinvention

Sessions are conducted in English, French, or Spanish — whichever feels most natural to you.

What people say

Something always shifts.

"

Isabel brings an enormous capacity for empathy which gives her tremendous insight into people. She has the ability to see things that others might not see in themselves — with a very gentle but firm way of asking the right questions that help us to unlock.

She has such wide-ranging life experience which gives her a very open and broad outlook. Isabel has a positive energy that is infectious. She comes through as extremely consistent, grounded and anchored — as someone who works on it every day.

"

Isabel has this talent to open a person up. It's possible to go very fast, very deep with her, feeling complete trust.

She has a natural ability to hold the space, and an intuition to pick the right words, come back to the right topic, ask the right question, leave the space or dive in.

She challenges in a humorous and lovely way.

Deep & practical.
