Meet Cornelia:

Hello fellow human being,

I am Cornelia. Thanks for visiting and having a look around. In this article, I will share a little about myself and how Listening Space came about. 

I currently live in the beautiful South of Ireland in Cork, but I am originally from Austria, I was born in Vienna. I moved to Ireland in 2010.

So how did Listening Space become a "thing"?

As far as I can remember, I always had a great interest in psychology, human behavior, self-development and professional development. Amongst many other things. 

I always like to try to find solutions, so when I noticed challenges in my life, it didnt take long until I started looking into it and learn more about the human mind, mindset, self-care, different practises such as breathwork and much more. In my early twenties, I even became a Kinesiologist (Diploma) because I found it fascinating how the mind and body are interconnected.

I also struggled a lot. Especially mentally. This is something I still dont like to talk about too much but it is important to mention.

I struggled with understanding what a purposeful life means and what is meaningful to me, and I also struggled a lot with simple everyday tasks, activities and chores. Not to mention issues at school, especially when it came to taking exams or accepting people of authority, although they made no sense. 

Little did I know, I actually had ADHD, I got diagnosed later in life, but for all the years, I wasn't aware of it; I tried to figure out: How can I manage my mind better so I feel good? How can I manage my emotions better so I experience more happiness and joy? 

I also struggled a lot because I wanted to learn and try out everything. I didnt want to specialize in one area career-wise, with my passions or anything else in life. I love having multiple balls up in the air, I am part of many communities, I have tried countless sports and activities, and to this day, I love doing different activities, and I still have many different passions. My main ones are currently Freediving (which I have done throughout life anyway) and Acro yoga and movement.

Throughout the years, I read a lot, researched, went to countless workshops and retreats, did various courses, and experimented and learned as much as possible about the human mind.

By default, I am an overthinker. I have a wandering and busy mind, but I started to understand what helps me and how I can manage it. Eventually, I started to share through sharing my experiences or being the go-to person among my friends.

Eventually, I came across life & mindset coaching and realized how powerful it is to support & guide others through the coaching process.

Through a coaching relationship, it is possible to gain clarity and more self-awareness which is one of the first and most important steps.

I love the fact that you (or someone) can have a safe space to talk it all out and detangle whatever is going on your mind. And I love to be the person to host this space for you (or someone). It is also super helpful to get in touch with yourself, become familiar with your emotions and learn how to deal with them too.

Eventually, one step led to another and Listening Space was born at the end of 2019. 

After finishing my coaching education under the International Coaching Federation (accredited and certified with a Diploma), I decided to help others live a more satisfying life on their own terms. And this can mean absolutely everything, which I find even more so exciting to help others discover what it means for them!

I love to help people figure things out. I love for you to discover your true self. Find ease in life and ease in whatever you are doing. One of the main reasons why life and things sometimes feel like a struggle is because we are not honouring the way how we "work best". We operate conditioned and with beliefs that might not be true to us. Some of us are also neurodivergent, and our brains work differently. So we have to consider these facts and make sure we live in a way that suits us, our minds, body and soul.

Once you learn how to honour yourself, your needs, your personality and your ways of living, you will find more ease in life.

Everybody deserves to live life to the fullest. In their state of flow whilst discovering who they are and utilizing their body, mind and spirit.

I want you to love your life. To love yourself. To be in flow.

And that's why I am here today. I want to show you, that you can figure it out too. I want you to become clear about your visions and discover what it is that your soul truly desires. I am here to empower you and help you live through your wonderful life. 

Let me show you how much better life can get. :)

Much love from Ireland,

Cornelia
