Holistic Life Coaching
Holistic Life Coaching is about guidance towards a healthier, more fulfilling life, by addressing the whole person - mind, body and spirit. It helps guide individuals towards a healthier, more fulfilling life, by focusing on the harmonious alignment of physical health, mental well-being, and overall life satisfaction.
What does a Holistic Coach do?
I am so glad you asked!
As a Holistic Life Coach, I’m here to guide you through the interconnected aspects of health, well-being, and personal growth, recognising that your physical health, mental wellness, and life satisfaction all work together to create a fulfilling life. Here are some of the ways we can work together:
- Physical and Mental Health: I’m passionate about the gut-brain axis, which links our physical and mental health, so we’ll approach your wellness holistically. Together, we can work toward goals like increasing your energy, managing weight, improving metabolic health, navigating hormonal changes, and achieving a balanced mind-body connection.
- Life Transitions and Authentic Living: If you’re going through a major life transition or looking to live more authentically, I’ll support you in finding clarity and confidence. We’ll explore what truly matters to you, setting goals and making choices that reflect your values and your unique vision for life.
- Overcoming Mental Health Challenges and Building Resilience: Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or relationship complexities, I’m here to offer a compassionate, judgment-free space. I’ll help you strengthen your emotional resilience, find grounding in difficult situations, and develop tools to handle life’s challenges with grace.
- Goal Setting, Purpose, and Personal Growth: I’m here to help you clarify and achieve meaningful goals—whether they’re related to career, personal growth, or well-being. Together, we’ll break down overwhelming aspirations into manageable steps, helping you overcome limiting beliefs and build confidence as you move forward.
- Work-Life Balance, Stress, and Relationships: Balancing modern life can be challenging. I’ll support you in managing stress, setting boundaries, enhancing your relationships, and creating a sustainable routine that honours all areas of your life.
By working together, we’ll co-create a plan that aligns with your values and keeps you on track toward the life you envision. I’m here to provide the guidance, support, and when appropriate some tools you need to lead a balanced, purposeful, and authentically fulfilling life.
Let me introduce myself
Hi, I’m Masha! Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.
My purpose is simple yet powerful: to help you find fulfilment, clarity, and true alignment with who you are. I’m passionate about seeing you succeed, not just in your goals but in feeling at peace with yourself and your journey. Your success is my joy, and I’m committed to bringing my whole self - my skills, insights, and intuition - to our work together.
What’s different about me?
I bring a warm, safe, and judgement-free environment where you can talk openly about any aspect of life, from the practical to the deeply personal. There are no taboo topics here; you’ll find me to be a great listener, genuinely curious about who you are, and always open to whatever you wish to share. I take time to truly understand you, and I’m highly conscientious in guiding our conversations in a way that feels natural, insightful, and supportive.
Let’s take this journey together—one rooted in trust, insight, and your unique path forward.
One-on-one sessions
I offer private one-on-one online video conferencing sessions (typically 1 hour each), which you can join from the comfort of wherever you are in the world. Regular sessions are spaced out in a way that allows us to set concrete achievable goals and subsequently check our progress.
Most of the time I am located in the New Zealand time zone, and set my available meeting times based on that.

Whatever personal challenge you may face, I am sure that Masha will be able to support you in a meaningful and transformative way. And I say that because I have seen Masha’s talent first hand as a life coach at play. Besides her extensive life experience, Masha has a profound knowledge in psychology and human behaviour. She has an empathetic heart but also and empathetic mind and intellect. Masha is also articulate. Being able to skilfully unpack and coherently describe convoluted and complex situations is something I value. It creates clarity and balance, both of which are fundamental for understanding and healing.

Loss of my life partner was, by far, the most traumatic experience in my life. Disoriented, and terrified of the future, I needed help, and, by pure chance, got in touch with Masha. With compassion, and incredible intuition, she helped me navigate the most devastating time in my life, and eventually come out on the other side. I’ve never met anyone who can match her incredible mix of emotional intelligence, deep insight, and being fully present in any conversation. She really has a gift, and I hope she is able to share it with others!
