About Markéta
I’m not yourtypical executive coach.
I don’t believe people need to be fixed. I believe many have simply outgrown the life they once worked so hard to build and no one has shown them how to make sense of that. I have lived through the Identity Collision and the Alignment Gap and now I help others to reconnect with who they really are and help them find out what’s next.

My Story
From Czech Republic to Canada — a life shaped by change, loss, and radical reinvention.
“I had the career. The stability. Everything that was supposed to make me happy. And I was falling apart.”
In 2015, after 11 years building a career in corporate HR — working with large international organizations across leadership, change management, and employee development — my body said stop before my mind was ready to listen.
What followed was one of the most difficult periods of my life: exhaustion, self-doubt, and a years-long journey through infertility and IVF. I had achieved so much by every external measure and felt completely disconnected from myself.
But before I got there, my path has taken me across countries, cultures, and careers — from teaching languages to corporate HR with ExxonMobil, from the Czech Republic to Canada. I’ve worked with people at every level, learning how differently we think, lead, struggle, and grow.
But the most important shifts in my life didn’t come from titles. They came from moments that changed how I saw myself.
Living in Spain and New Zealand. Moving to Canada. Becoming a mother. Both asked the same question: Are you living a life that works or a life that truly fits who you really are?
That question led me to step away from the expected path and invest in myself in a very different way – pause, meditate, read personal development books and becoming a certified coach while balancing career, family, and everything in between.
Today, I work with high-achieving individuals who feel successful on the outside but internally know something no longer fits. They come asking “What’s next?” but underneath, they’re really asking: Who am I now? What do I actually want? How do I move forward without losing everything I’ve built? Is this it? I have so much to give but I don’t know what to do and where to start.
My approach isn’t about fixing people or forcing rigid frameworks. It’s about helping you see yourself clearly like looking through a kaleidoscope, where patterns shift, perspectives change, and new possibilities emerge.
Through years of working with clients, I began to see a pattern in how real transformation happens. That’s where my Kaleidoscope 5R Shift Method was born:
- Recognize who you really are today
- Release what is no longer serving you
- Reinvent how you see yourself and your possibilities
- Rewire your subconscious mind and restart your life with intentional, aligned action
- Reflect on what’s working and what needs further adjustment

These aren’t rigid steps, they’re a natural rhythm of transformation. I combine structure with intuition, strategy with depth, and real-life experience with deep listening, so each person can find a path that actually fits who they are.
So we’re turning your fast working mind into Clarity, blind spot into Insight, competing possibilities into Criteria, old identity into Current identity, achievement into Alignment, overthinking into Meaningful action.
Because the goal isn’t to become someone else. It’s to reconnect with who you are — and build a life that reflects it.
I can’t work with everybody. It needs to be a mutual connection. Click here and let’s see if we are a fit.
