About Impact Waves
At Impact Waves, we believe that traditional education
often falls short of preparing underserved communities (especially young people, women and migrants) for today's challenges. We address these shortcomings by equipping individuals with practical skills essential for career development, personal growth and wellbeing.
Driven by the belief in equality and equity for all, we offer free and low-cost resources, targeted programs, workshops, as well as coaching designed to address the specific needs of individuals and organisations.
Our focus is on creating "braving places" for growth, where individuals can connect with each other in meaningful way. Through our workshops and programs, participants not only gain practical skills, but also develop a deeper understanding of other cultures and enhance their social-emotional skills. This connection fosters a supportive community, driving both personal and professional growth.
Our consultancy to organisations is to strengthen their operations and teams so they effectively & compassionately deliver their services to those they serve.
By integrating career development with wellbeing, we ensure that our participants are prepared to navigate the complexities of today's world with confidence and resilience.

"I was initially drawn to Adrienn when I felt lost in my career and life. Every session brought remarkable clarity and insight. From the start, I felt a strong connection and genuine support from her. Adrienn had a unique ability for revealing things I couldn't see on my own. Our conversations covered every aspect of my life, showing me how they intertwined. Through thought-provoking questions, she challenged my limiting beliefs and offered constructive feedback. This empowered me to unlock my true potential and make meaningful progress. After each session with Adrienn, I took bold steps towards dormant projects. I realized I didn't need perfect clarity; I could move forward despite fear and uncertainty."

"I sought personalized support tailored to my needs, with the hope of gaining clarity and guidance to navigate my challenges and achieve my goals. Adrienn's ability to actively listen, consistently ask thought-provoking and tough questions, and provide constructive feedback created a supportive environment. Her insights and wisdom have been invaluable in helping me gain new perspectives. Adrienn has not only helped me develop a deeper understanding of my strengths but also encouraged me to strive for excellence rather than perfection."

"I signed up for 1-2-1 mentoring with Adrienn, eager to enter the social impact field but feeling lost on how to stand out and secure a job. What I found exceeded my expectations. Adrienn's dynamic mentoring sessions not only focused on job-seeking but challenged my approach to the social impact sector, my potential role, and the essence of social impact work. She shared her experiences, offered practical resume advice, and expanded my understanding of the field's diverse roles. Adrienn encouraged me to critically assess my strengths, values, and unique contributions. Her mentorship extended beyond the professional realm, deepening my understanding of my passionate social causes.”

Our Founder
Hello! Nice to meet you here!
I am Adrienn, a dedicated coach, consultant and advocate for social impact, education and wellbeing.
Since 2015, I've had the privilege of working alongside young people, women and migrants, drawing from my extensive experience across various sectors, such as business, consultancy, social impact and education management, to support their journeys.
I've managed and supported diverse projects, from optimising student experiences at universities to supporting initiatives at community-focused organisations, including project that supported vulnerable groups and enhanced organisational capacity in both local and international contexts.
Having navigated two international relocations, I bring a unique understanding of the challenges faced by those adapting to new environments.
