Build a Thriving Relationship with Yourself and Create the Life you Want.

About

I am an award-winning Holistic Career Coach and NLP Master Practitioner accredited by ICF and IIN. 

My coaching programs uniquely blend my professional training, personal interests, healing journey, and inner knowledge. I've combined all these elements to create the 'Wisdom Model for a Thriving Life©️'. This customisable body-mind-soul framework is designed to support you in creating a thriving relationship with yourself and building the life you've always wanted.

I enjoy connecting the dots, enabling people to discover what energises them and find paths to self-expression and creativity in all areas of life, be it their career, relationships, or environment.

By speaking up in relationships (professional or personal), setting boundaries, and expressing your needs, I believe, you can break free from the cycle of doubts and exhaustion.

I am a Panamanian who has lived as an expat for 8 years and counting, and has over 20 years of corporate experience in Latin America and Europe. With a background in industrial engineering, project management, and an MBA, I have crafted a unique perspective on preventing burnout. 

I am also the mother of a Classics university student, wife of an IT professional, coffee and sun lover, traveller, green thumb, networker, multicultural geek, and believer in magic and love.

Testimonials

I had the opportunity to be coached by Hilda Lorena. She is very professional and very dedicated. She patiently walked me through the process of deciding to act on some areas of my life that I had been postponing for a long time. I’m grateful for the outcome.

- Cristiano (Malta)

I am extremely thankful for the coaching sessions I had with Hilda, which I found tremendously beneficial. Our work was profound and provided me with much-needed clarity regarding the direction of the next steps in my life. Hilda is an intuitive coach; her warm, natural approach made me feel comfortable every minute, and it was easy to open myself up to her. She is a great listener, knows the right question to ask, is silent when I need to process, and helped me to gain insights every session and to forward these into action. I am grateful that you have been on my side at this particular time of my life.

- Tina (Germany)

I am thrilled to recommend Hilda as a coach. It was a blessing to work with her. Hilda is a compassionate and understanding coach. Despite facing some personal problems that compromised the goals we agreed on at the beginning, Hilda was always reassuring and comforting. I felt that we were still moving forward progressively. I gained a lot of new metaphors and realisations about myself, which is truly valuable for me, maybe even more valuable than my initial goals! Thank you, Hilda!

- Ekaterina (UK)

I highly recommend Hilda as a professional coach. She is very skilled at challenging my own thinking while supporting me with great empathy. Hilda exceeded my expectations each and every time, and I got clarity and motivation after each session. I appreciate her patience, wisdom and competency. My productivity and quality of life have improved since our coaching engagement. I enjoyed her warm and uplifting energy throughout our time together.

- Selina (Australia)

Hilda had the right balance of challenge-empathy and powerful questions. This combination was impactful and long-lasting, enabling me to have an extra tool kit to keep my resilience up in tough times.

- Jason (UK)

The 6-months coaching experience helped me a lot to analyse things from another angle. As you get into a session with Hilda, she will help you open up your perspective. It's like she will give over a new pair of rose-colour glasses that make everything nicer and easier for your eyes. I learned to manage situations better than before. I learned to relax, breathe, and trust. I became a magnet for miracles. The material shared was extremely clear and helpful. Hilda is a strong and professional coach. I would recommend that everyone in need start coaching sessions with her!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Coaching?
The International Coaching Federation (ICF) defines coaching as partnering in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires a person to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity, and leadership.

You might think of coaching like going on a road trip with a supportive passenger riding along with you. You are in control of the car and where it’s going – the same way you’re in control of your life, your destiny, your decisions, your future. As you drive, your coach accompanies you, assisting you on your journey to reach your destination.

When you partner with a coach, you are in the driver’s seat. Your coach provides support for accountability and self-awareness and helps you gain new perspectives. Coaches ask questions not to get the answer they desire; instead, the idea is to encourage you in meaningful exploration that can help you reach a new level of depth and performance.

The goal is to help you, as the coaching client, uncover key insights for yourself. Your efforts with your coach will focus on setting goals, creating outcomes, and managing the journey of personal and
professional change on a path toward those desired outcomes.

Coaching is an investment in yourself and your future. It’s a transformative experience that can empower you in ways you may have never thought possible. When you partner with a coach, you’ll find that you already have the answers to many of your most important questions about yourself and your life, business, work, and more – your coach will simply help you unlock them.

Coaching can help you recharge, refocus, and reach new heights of success.
What Coaching is NOT?
Coaching is not the same thing as mentoring or therapy. A mentor provides subject matter expertise, wisdom, and guidance based on their own experiences. Therapy deals with healing pain, trauma, dysfunction, or conflict of some kind, typically with the goal of resolving difficulties arising from one’s past that impair an individual’s emotional health and psychological functioning in the present.

By contrast, coaching focuses on facilitating individuals or groups in drawing upon their experiences and capabilities to set and reach their objectives. The coach is the expert in the coaching process, but you are the expert on your life journey.
What are some signs that I could benefit from partnering with a coach?
You are:
- Feeling “stuck”
- Wanting to pursue a lifelong dream
- Longing to become your best self
- Wanting to pursue career advancement
- Transitioning into a new stage of life
- Looking to grow professionally
- Desiring to feel more confident
- Leaving behind emotional baggage.

Coaching can benefit professionals of all ages and at all stages of their careers. If you are ready
to invest the time and engage in self-exploration and critical thinking to level up; a coach could be
the perfect partner to help you advance.
What results can I expect to see while partnering with a coach?
The top results reported by coaching clients:
- Improved communication skills
- Increased self-esteem and self-confidence
- Increased productivity
- Clarity to pursue the changes they wanted to create in their life.

An individual’s results from coaching will be tightly aligned with the goals they set with their coach at the start of the engagement. While a return on investment (ROI) in these engagements can be difficult to measure, an alternate way to measure the impact of your coaching engagement could
be to measure your Return on Expectation (ROE), which gauges how your coaching results tie back
to the objective, you and your coach set at the start of your work together.
What should I expect from a coaching session?
You are responsible for your progress, still establishing your coaching agreement is an essential first step. In your sessions, the coach will challenge your thinking with practices and tools designed to evoke awareness, consider new perspectives, and cultivate learning and growth, with a focus on making clear progress toward a clearly defined goal. These tools might include worksheets, personal SWOT assessments, profiling tools, or other exercises.
What kind of commitment is a coaching engagement in terms of sessions and duration?
The duration and frequency of a coaching engagement can vary significantly by each client’s
needs, objectives, and organization. Each coaching experience is likely to be different because each is
highly individualized.

Typically, a coaching engagement ranges from weekly to monthly sessions, usually about an
hour long. On average, engagements can range from a few sessions to about six months in length.
Coaching works toward a defined goal around which each session is structured. When you have
achieved this goal, you and your coach might agree the engagement is concluded, or you may work
together to set a new goal.

Coaching is driven by you: As the client, you are in control of this experience. Work with your coach
to find the right fit that meets your needs and accomplishes your goals.
Does a coach need to have experience in my industry or role?
Coaching is helping a person tap into their own internal wisdom, which is accomplished by evoking
awareness that can help the client consider different perspectives or alternate approaches. A coach’s
relatively lesser experience in your industry or type of role does not preclude them from partnering
with you to help you achieve your career goals.

They are your thinking partners who are experts in the process of coaching — collaborating with you,
challenging your own thinking and helping evoke creativity and innovation.
