Ewelina Konyndyk is a Life Coach for Immigrants born in Poland. Before moving to the United States in 2005 Ewelina was working as a Polish Language teacher. Walking home one day, she concluded: Something is missing. These kids need a specific kind of knowledge, more important than Polish language. They need to be taught how to live. But what exactly? Two months later she was 5000 miles away, working for her host family in Michigan. The first weeks there were very hard. Ewelina found herself far outside of her comfort zone, struggling to express basic concepts. The years that followed brought many additional challenges that resulted in a 3 years long identity crisis. Unsure of who she really was, she was desperately trying to be someone she thought others expected her to be. Deep inside she felt confused, ashamed and angry. Her life was not unfolding as she imagined it would. In September 2011 she left her loving husband and returned to Poland hoping to find some answers there. She came back four months later finally feeling at peace. Today Ewelina believes that the long process filled with unnecessary drama could have been avoided if she had a good life coach. She was confused, and needed clarity. She needed someone who would ask deep questions and not let go hearing: “I don’t know.” Today Ewelina is the Life Coach she needed back then. In her practice she helps her clients develop a relationship with themselves based on self love, compassion and self awareness. She teaches tools to manage mind and emotions. She believes that this knowledge is what her soul was guiding her to find when walking home from school in Poland. As a long time student of spirituality and self improvement she joined a spiritual center and became one of the teachers leading their courses. Over the years she has developed regular meditation practice and has discovered that life is much easier when one regularly witnesses their own presence and learns to “belong to themselves”. Thanks to Ewelina’s own experience, her clients quickly shift from feeling disconnected, insecure and overwhelmed to calm and empowered. The topics discussed in sessions include but are not limited to: relationships, self-empowerment, processing feelings, overdrinking, overeating, goal setting, business growth, money, grief, time management and lack of motivation. She specializes in helping 1st generation immigrants create the lives they moved for. If you are a 1st generation immigrant, Ewelina believes you owe it to yourself to create the life you came here for. No matter what your story is,
