🔎 Clarity Session
As they say, “Necessity is the mother of invention-and reinvention.” After years of therapy, masterclasses, and coaching, I still felt lost-without a voice or vision, and with no clear solution in sight. Then came my life’s tsunami. This storm of a lifetime, helped me embracing spirit-driven teachings founded on Myers-Briggs psychological tools that led me to develop Spiritual Personality Typing (SPT). This growing typology is a roadmap to your authentic self, connecting your soul (higher consciousness) with your personality (your soul in action). It’s ideal for “audacious agers” and “business outliers” and “travelers” seeking to thrive in these transformative times.
