After graduating the University of Sorbonne, I have been working in business management and sales for the big corporations for 12 years. Following my own reconnection with Nature back in 2013, I have been spending an important part of my life outside – climbing, hiking, sleeping under the stars, wild camping, walking in the forests. 8 years later- in 2021 I have left a corporate world to follow my passion of outdoors full time.
By creating Be Outside Coaching movement, I have connected my 2 major passions: activities outside and human development. My Nature retreats have been rapidly growing and gaining reputation in Switzerland and Lithuania. I love guiding human beings outside and witness the impact that nature creates on them.
In my coaching and facilitation programs with teams and individuals, I combine research based nature connection practices and coaching empowered by neuroscience.
My Story
10 years ago when I was going through some life turbulence and was considering going to the therapist, I accidentally went for my first hike. As I was walking through the first mountain trail of my life I noticed that I am feeling much better: my head is empty, I am able to find a different perspective to life. Since then I decided to walk in the mountain, meadows, or the forecast whenever the opportunity arises. I soon realized that my Therapist is Nature. Nature invites humans to be present, it accepts and loves us the way we are. While being in Nature, it’s easier to connect with oneself thus feeling good about who we Are. Nature is a Healer.
When we are in nature, our mind works differently. Walking, being here and now is an opportunity for insight, wellbeing and a start of new ideas. This is why I naturally called my initiative Be Outside Coaching.

The Power of Nature Connection
In today’s modern society humans are being subjected to more and more pressure to perform and contribute to an ever-growing culture consumption and fast technological development. This kind of lifestyle creates a baseline of stress within our bodies that makes it very challenging to sustain mental and physiological health.
Nature connection practices, such as hiking, and forest therapy are pathways to returning to a baseline of health and happiness.
My mission with Be Outside Coaching’s is to encourage and guide individuals to immerse into nature differently. I believe that Nature empowers naturally, it calms down the mind, invites to cherish the present moment and to really feel.
I have created nature retreats as an open space to connect with nature and explore the inner self. In my outings I include mindful walking, forest bathing and mindfulness techniques. These are simple techniques that remind one about the importance of the beauty, presence and awe.
Would you like to experience something unique? Get Outside and connect your authentic self. Come and walk with me in one of the most beautiful place on Earth- the Swiss Alps. You can register to one of my treks or retreats in the events section or send me your personal request and I can create a special trip for you, your family and friends.
