In my relentless quest for personal growth and professional mastery, I have returned to the ashram in India — a space of deep introspection, learning, and transformation. More than ever before, this experience peeled away yet another layer of conditioning, revealing amazing insights that shape not only my life journey but also the way I guide others as a coach.

After this new immersive stay, I unveil six more lessons — powerful realizations meant to further elevate leadership in today’s complex world.

I wrote the article "From the Ashram to Leadership Excellence: 6 Key Lessons for Elevating Your Leadership Skills" for ICF Romania’s blog, inspired by and as a gift to my coaching clients - leaders in organizations committed to lifelong learning.

In the article, I share six essential lessons from my stay in the ashram in India and how leaders can apply them to enhance their presence, empathy, self-awareness, potential, mindfulness, and authenticity in their leadership roles.

When we talk about coaching, we inevitably come to speak about the state of flow as well.

Moreover, based on my experience, flow not only enhances the performance of both client and coach, but also brings fulfillment into their lives. Therefore, it is definitely worth exploring how we can cultivate this state, in coaching and beyond.

I strongly believe that we all desire to create fulfilling experiences, for ourselves and the people we serve, influence, lead or inspire. In my view, a coach can do this precisely by facilitating the flow.
