Hello! I'm Adrienn. I work with young people, women, and migrants to build skills and confidence, guiding them as they navigate their careers and personal lives with purpose and wellbeing.
My journey hasn’t been straightforward. As the first in my family to attend university, I felt immense pressure to meet internal and external expectations. Growing up in a small Hungarian town, my idea of success was working in Budapest. However, the job I found didn’t align with my values, leaving me stuck in a cycle of busyness and unfulfilled goals. I lived my dreams through volunteering and hanging out with expats. Perfectionism disconnected me from my true self. I have never imagined what was yet to come!
​When my life seemed to have come to a full circle, I decided to move abroad. This was also something nobody in my family (including myself) expected me to do. This transformative experience opened my mind and widened my world, but also brought loneliness and impostor syndrome. I turned to holistic healing practices, therapy, EFT, and coaching to reconnect with my authentic self, embrace vulnerability, and redefine success.
This experience, combined with my desire to seek personal growth has started my journey to becoming a coach. My career and life coaching practice puts wellbeing in the centre, and combines my 15 years of experience across business, consultancy, social impact, and education. I have led teams, provided career development guidance, and supported more than 1,000 young people and students from all across the world with transitioning to university (and London) life, and had the privilege to work with more than 5 organisations in a period of significant growth.
Over the past three years, I've delivered individual and group coaching to more than 100 individuals and designed workshops for over 60 women. I'm particularly passionate about including wellbeing practices and mental health support into my workshops and coaching practice, supporting women through their challenges with self-worth, purpose and personal development.
In 2020, I completed a mental health coaching course with Light University (powered by AACC), and since December 2020, I have been dedicated to supporting young people, women, and migrants in building resilience, navigating change, and discovering their values and goals, personally and professionally.
Seeing a gap between education and the world of work, I founded Impact Waves in 2023. Our group coaching programs merge social-emotional skill development with professional competencies, leading to participant-led solutions tackling global issues. So far, 17 early- and mid-career professionals [from Asia, Africa and the Americas] graduated from the program successfully, creating 4 solutions for real-world issues from supporting women through mental health challenges in India through to developing digital literacy in South Africa, and solving wicked problems in the supply chain of a chocolate manufacturer.
My focus is on guiding individuals through life transitions, helping them navigate challenges, and providing personalized support with an emphasis on wellbeing and journaling.
My clients report increased confidence, clarity in their career direction, emotional healing, and improved soft skills. I’m here to help you find balance, boost confidence, and tackle challenges, ensuring your career aligns with your values and you make a meaningful impact.
I would love to support you on your journey as well. Are you ready to navigate life’s transitions and advance your career with purpose? My coaching methodology helps you find balance, boost confidence, and tackle challenges, ensuring your career aligns with your values and you make a meaningful impact.
