Hi, I'm
Alena Wajs-Hielema
I'm glad you are here!
If you’ve landed here, there’s a good chance something in your career no longer feels quite right.
Maybe you feel stuck, restless, or unsure about what your next step should be.
I know that feeling – because I’ve been there too!
Over the years, I’ve gone through several professional reinventions myself: rebuilding my career after moving to a new country, leaving corporate to start my own business, and redefining my work and mission after experiencing severe burnout.
Alongside this lived experience, I bring:
✦ 20+ years of international professional experience
✦ Operational, recruitment, leadership & people development roles
✦ Academic background in sociology and HR management.

She helped me figure out who I am and what I want out of my career and life. Together we identified the factors influencing my career development and assessed my interests, abilities, and values to make better decisions. I enjoyed every single conversation, even those difficult and challenging. The process was not only focused on tools for self-reflection and assessments but also on releasing limiting beliefs and building supportive habits to get me where I plan to be—a genuinely holistic approach. Alena always went the extra mile to support me where needed and was a source of laughter and never ending positive energy! I wholeheartedly recommend her to all professionals who, for whatever reason, are in career transition or planning to develop their careers differently, in alignment with their desires yet realistic"
