More facts that shaped me
I feel I am an Argentinean by heart and an American mom by adoption.
I love to find that extra meaning in things, always introspecting and reflecting on those golden threads that are carried over.
I am an organizational “freak”! I can’t see things out of place and will not finish until everything is in perfect order.
I have always been an overachiever. Striving to do my very best in everything, from my personal life to business.
For me, there are no failures; every challenge is an opportunity to grow and improve. (An insight I continuously remind my clients of in moments of despair, and they emerge stronger and wiser every time.). In each single challenge there is always a positive message if we open ourselves to see it.
I believe luck is made; it does not happen through magic. (My clients are bright, intelligent, sharp, and–like me–have worked hard for everything they have accomplished.)
