In this inspiring episode, Matej sits down with Master Life Coach and Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner Andrea Tessier. Andrea shares her powerful journey from burnout as an international school teacher to becoming a deeply fulfilled and impactful coach. Together, they explore how IFS (Internal Family Systems) can be a profound tool for personal transformation, healing, and reconnecting with the parts of ourselves we've lost along the way.

Andrea opens up about the identity crisis she experienced when leaving teaching, how burnout catalyzed her transformation, and the importance of embracing all our parts – even the ones we tend to push away. With warmth and wisdom, she explains how IFS works and why it's such a game-changing method in the coaching and personal growth space.

If you've ever felt stuck in a role that no longer fits, or sensed there's something more waiting for you beyond burnout or overachievement, this conversation will resonate deeply.
