Meet the Founder
Vita
15+ years in Education,
PhD – Founder of ReStart Her
Space ReStart Her was not created from an idea – it was born from a time when anxiety and panic took over my life. When your body is tense, your thoughts don’t stop, and even simple moments feel heavy… when I no longer recognize myself. I know that place. And I also know – there is a way back. With the support of specialists, step by step, I began returning to calm…
to balance… to myself. Learning again how to feel joy in small, everyday moments – yes, joy… not irritation. I am still on this path. But now – with understanding, support, and trust.
With 15+ years in higher education, a PhD, and my work in humanitarian projects, I create spaces that support real change. ReStart Her is one of those spaces – a place to pause, exhale, and come back to yourself.
