The dime can fall both ways

As a speaker, I take my audience on an inspiring journey through my own life story, in which I went through a lot as a child. Through my personal experiences, I share how difficult and dark moments can lead to growth and transformation. My goal is to show people that something beautiful can emerge from even the toughest challenges, and inspire them to find strength in their own story. With an open and honest approach, I create a profound connection with my audience so that they go home with new insights and motivation.

My childhood was marked by the difficult reality of growing up with a father who was a heavy alcoholic. What began with admiring my father as my hero soon turned into fear and insecurity as he turned from friend to enemy. I experienced situations where we had to flee and even go into hiding in our own country, fearing the one who was once my greatest support.

These profound experiences affected me deeply and caused me to retreat into myself, searching for answers. In the end, I came to one powerful conclusion: from now on, I would only do what I truly enjoy and fully support. Life is like a coin that can fall two ways-good or bad. Fortunately for me, it fell on the good side, and that choice to stay true to myself has led me to where I am today.

Now I share my story as a speaker, to inspire others and show them that something beautiful can emerge from even the toughest of circumstances.
