I am a writer, corporate trainer, and coach. My work brings together breath, somatic practices, mindfulness, and stories—with a focus on self-exploration, embodied presence, resilience, and interconnectedness.

For over a decade, I’ve been working with individuals, groups, and organizations through breath, body-based practices, and writing. My intention is to create spaces where people can reconnect with themselves in a deeper and more compassionate way. My background includes studies in Coaching, Integrative Somatic Psychology, Breathwork, Positive Neuroplasticity, and Expressive Writing. I offer one-on-one sessions, group work, and corporate workshops—offered with care, presence, and a deep respect for each person’s inner experience.

I studied International Relations at Istanbul University and spent eight years working in the corporate world—most recently as a Strategic Key Account Manager in a leading telecommunications company. When I turned 30, I decided to leave the corporate world behind and began a new chapter—training as a coach and practitioner, and sharing the tools that supported my own evolution—through reconnecting with my body, breath, and story. Since then, I’ve been designing and facilitating customized trainings for global companies and holdings in Turkey, focusing on breath, resilience, and embodied awareness in the workplace.

In 2019, I moved to Switzerland with my husband and daughter. That same year, I launched the Breathing Women Circle, an online community for Turkish-speaking women around the world. It grew into a space of connection, reflection, and shared growth.

I currently offer various workshops in Switzerland in English and have co-hosted retreats in both Turkey and Switzerland.

I also host a podcast called “Kabilesini Arayan Kadınlar” (Women in Search of Their Tribes), where I explore themes like identity, belonging, and personal transformation through honest conversations. It has reached listeners in more than 35 countries.

Writing is another essential part of my life. I often focus on themes of migration, womanhood, and inner change. My first novel, Kendine Ait, was featured in public readings across Switzerland as part of the “Transcending Borders” initiative for immigrant women.

I’ve contributed to several anthologies and have recently completed my new book, which tells the stories of women navigating turning points in their lives. It will be published in November 2025.

Whether through a shared breath or a story, we experience a sense of community—sometimes in the form of a circle, sometimes through a podcast, the words we write and read together, or the stories I’ve written.

I am a bilingual corporate trainer specialized in soft skills development. My trainings are designed to meet the evolving needs of today’s workplace. I combine practical tools, somatic awareness, and science-backed methodologies to create engaging and sustainable learning experiences that support both personal growth and professional development.

Having worked across various formats—including in-person and online trainings—I have designed and facilitated a wide range of sessions, from corporate events and team retreats to classroom-style workshops. My client portfolio includes various institutions, including multinational companies committed to strengthening communication, emotional intelligence, resilience, and team performance.

As part of my role as a corporate trainer in Turkey, I also delivered Train the Trainer programs, equipping internal facilitators with the tools, confidence, and methodology needed to lead impactful sessions within their own teams.

A core principle in my work is to develop tailored solutions that align with each organization’s unique culture, goals, and challenges—aiming not just for short-term engagement, but for meaningful, long-term impact. In line with this approach, I have contributed to blended learning programs and collaborated closely with L&D teams to support sustainable behavioral change through thoughtfully designed, needs-based training curricula.

Each program is adapted to the specific needs of the audience and organizational context—delivered in Turkish or English, depending on the team’s needs.

I invite you to explore my professional background to see how these philosophies translate into practical work and life management.
