Sophia Kienastl

Hi, I´m Sophia!

Integrative coach, psychologist, idealist, optimist, empath, mindset and self-care expert, meditation junkie, nature enthusiast, goofball, and most of all: human. 
 

I coach ambitious and purpose-driven individuals and teams who want to lead with presence, courage, and integrity.

They are striving for something greater and are committed to shaping the world through inner growth, collaboration and bold, values-driven decision making.

My Coaching Philosophy

I believe that with the right space and support, people are capable of being extraordinary. For me, it is all about safe, honest, and authentic human connection, so you can lay down your armour and expand into the most beautiful, happy, creative, inspiring, and powerful version of yourself.


My coaching is person-centred, designed to give you the unique time and space that you need to lead your most brilliant and wildly original life - to lead others effectively and contribute to something greater than yourself.   

 

I believe in your abilities. You are capable and ultimately you know what´s best for you - I will never push opinions or advice onto you. Instead, you´ll have a safe, empathic space where you can be fully human - imperfect with a lot on your plate. With a strong focus on solutions, intentions and meaningful goals, I´ll support you in stepping out of uncertainty and achieving outstanding results.

I combine evidence-based methods from psychology, with professional coaching, spiritual practices, and creative self-development tools to form a holistic, integrative coaching approach.

 

By exploring established concepts and building personalised strategies, we bring light to new perspectives and actionable steps - so you can get to where you want to be and beyond.

Coaching Values

My Coaching Values

  • Authenticity: Show up as your real self, not a version you think you should be.

  • Courage: Speak and act from your deepest truth, even when it´s uncomfortable.

  • Compassion: See and honor the humanity in others.

  • Integrity: Say what you do, and do what you say - lead by example even when noone is watching.

  • Consciousness: Stay awake to your impact - lead with awareness, reflection and responsibility.

  • Effectiveness: Focus on what truly moves the needly - prioritize what matters, not just what´s easiest.

  • Freedom: Choose freedom over fear. 

You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.

~ Friedrich Nietzsche
