About me

Hi! I’m Nevena.

I’m a certified business and intercultural coach. My 12+ years of corporate expertise and expat life in Germany have inspired me to embark on a mission for more satisfaction, belonging, and better quality of life for expats in Germany.

I bring my empathy, expertise, experience, and commitment to accompany you with an effective, culturally reflective, and holistic approach. Through my passion for listening to people, encouraging, networking, and implementing promising ideas together, my business has become my vocation.

Through my own expat experiences, I understand the struggles and joys of being an expat in Germany. I came in 2007 after my bachelor’s degree in Bulgaria. The beginning was exciting but challenging in many ways. Today I feel happy and connected – after 12 years of career in Germany in different fields and industries, I found my vocation. I have my own family, and Germany has become my second home.

I am glad I’ve walked this path myself, but through it, I have learned many lessons that became valuable resources I use today to support other expats.

I speak:

Location:

Rheindorfer Straße 138, 53225 Bonn, Germany

Does this sound familiar to you?

having high expectations of yourself Although you have learned the language so well, you are not yet satisfied with your language skills and feel confident working in German.

no time or energy Besides work and family, there is no time for social contacts, breaks, or learning new skills. It’s too dynamic, too stressful, no drive or time. You just feel unbalanced.

difficult to adjust You may see Germany as an individualistic culture of rules, deadlines, silence, directness, little appreciation for personal opinions, and too much emphasis on security and prediction of every life event. Or it is difficult to adapt to the calm and patience of the Germans.

high level of frustration You feel frustrated by the way how Germans make friends or when neighborhood exchanges don’t work. You don’t want to make more friends with pressure.

difficult to communicate You are often misunderstood and don’t feel any more confident with your communication, not having the courage to speak your mind. Or sometimes you find it difficult to express what you think, and you don’t want to disappoint anyone or experience rejection.

Within a couple of months of intensive support, you can:

  • become happier and more confident with your life in Germany
  • feel more connected to society and culture
  • expand your intercultural and business knowledge
  • build your support system
  • save time and grow faster

INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT professional, goal-oriented, and reliable

There is no one-size-fits-all solution: depending on your needs, we will find out what is most important for you. We can hold the sessions in English, German, or Bulgarian language.
