-
What is currently keeping you unfulfilled? What is the main driver towards change? Is there anything that could hold you back from change?
We create space and time to reflect, start to explore our individual rhythms and map out our core values, interests and strengths.
-
What is the deeper desire underneath the change you are after? What will a career change allow you to feel, be and do? How do you want your days to feel like a few years from now?
In this module we envision the life and world we want to live in, uncovering desires and needs we want to prioritise. This will be the core guide for all future sessions.
-
How can you bring your vision to life? We will explore the possibilities and ideate alternative roads you could take based on your strengths, desires and needs, narrowing into 2-3 options that feel the most aligned, meaningful & fulfilling.
-
Understanding each option in dept: What does it take, to follow each path? What does it look like?
We start getting practical about each of the options, researching, testing the grounds. We also explore the different work modalities to find the best option(s) for you.
-
Once you've gathered enough insights and have a better feeling for what feels most aligned with your vision, needs and strengths, you commit to a path that blends different exciting options and interests of yours, allowing you to fine tune and improve as you move.
We roadmap your way through this transition, to start moving forward with clarity.
-
In this closing module, we will develop the tools to position yourself in this new path and explore ways you can draw visibility to your work.
We will ideate a small project that will help you position yourself in your new field & develop your skills in a way that is joyful and sustainable for you.
Regain a sense of direction in your creative and professional life, and map out a meaningful and fulfilling way forward
Adrift is for you if
-
What is currently keeping you stuck, unfulfilled, out of touch with yourself?
What are your needs that are currently not being met, and need your attention?
We work through these questions and find actionable answers to start designing a life that prioritises your needs and works for you.
-
How do you want your life to look and feel like? How do you want to spend your days? What is the world-vision you want to help co-create?
We tap into your vision for your future and the future of the Planet you want to live in, and use it as a guide.
Through creative exercises, we uncover desires and longings you hold inside of you.
-
How to bridge the here & now with the vision we are bringing to life? How do we filter through the many ideas roaming in our heads? How do we get started?
Using both visual canvas and project management tools, we roadmap your transition and create reflection rituals to get you moving intentionally. -
How do you choose between the many passions and ideas you hold dear? How do you know what is the best option for you?
We explore how we can blend different passions together into a common path that is exciting and fulfilling for you, and set priorities for your professional life.

Coaching is a co-creative process that requires you to do the work and show up each day for your goals. I am here to support you in getting clear on where you wish to go and how to get there, but the only way forth is by doing the work, one step at a time.
-
Lacking accountability is often what makes us abandon our ideas once the initial enthusiasm as faded - a typical problem for creatives who rejoice in the myriad of ideas that soar through their minds each day.
I am here to help you sustain that initial enthusiasm overtime, remind you of your commitments and the importance of bringing forth your work when faced with roadblocks. -
In this programme we blend practical, actionable tools with inspiration and mindset work. We work with Visual Canvas to help you envision your thoughts, and use playful tools to set you into the right mindset to move on.
The foundational pilars of this coaching programme:
Curiosity
Adrift invites you to be curious with yourself, your thoughts, beliefs and behaviours, and open to life and its possibilities. To approach each exercise with an open mind, and a “let’s see where this takes me” mindset.
Inner Work
Growing and changing requires our willingness to question ourselves and move past the resistance and patterns that keep us stuck and no longer serve us. Self-awareness and inner work are the building blocks of transformation.
Experimentation
In order to understand what works for you, you will need to test & try your ideas. We want to get our hands dirty in the mud of what we are trying to create, so we can fine-tune as we go and build something truly ours.
Commitment
Succeeding will require you to stay committed to the change you are after, and building the life you are dreaming of. No change happens over night, and it will require you to stay on your lane and take consistent aligned action.

Maria Carrasco
Communication & Connection Facilitator
When I first joined Adrift, I had plenty of ideas about what I could do, but I was also grappling with how to start bringing them to life. The timing was perfect, as the programme helped me build a solid foundation for this new journey. Each module felt like its own experience—an insightful journey filled with personal and internal work that truly made a difference.It wasn’t just about refining my plans; it was about discovering my untapped potential and realising how I could develop my skills to create something meaningful and impactful.
What stood out most was Gabriela’s unique approach. She didn’t just listen to my ideas; she genuinely followed my thought process and provided tailored advice that felt aligned with my journey. It was more like having a conversation with a friend who genuinely cares about your growth. I also deeply appreciated the moments when Gabriela would share relevant resources, people to connect with, or programmes that resonated with my goals. These gestures made me feel truly supported throughout the process.

I reached out to Gabriela at a pivotal moment in my life, after deciding to change careers and move back to my home country, Germany. I struggled to identify the right path, balancing my professional aspirations in design with my various creative endeavors in photography and music. It felt impossible to pursue everything I loved in a fulfilling way.
Gabriela provided me with the tools to bring clarity to my situation by helping me plan and prioritize my projects. This enabled me to be more intentional and aware of all my pursuits, allowing me to enjoy engaging in a variety of activities. Whenever I feel overwhelmed, I rely on the tools and techniques Gabriela taught me to realign my focus and continue with excitement. -

Movie Industry Producer
When I came to Gaby, I was full of frustrations and insecurities at work. I work in the cinema industry, have loads of responsibilities and stakeholders to handle, roles and expectations which results in a lot of pressure everyday.She took an entire session to listen to me, and take all the necessary time to understand where exactly I was. We put words together on problems, getting to understand how I could first change inner barriers and define my boundaries towards all the people I am working with.
She managed to rebuild what i had lost in the past few months: self confidence - the basis of our work for future sessions.
In a gentle and empathetic way, Gaby reconnected me with my instinct and inner creativity. All the tools she gave me really helped me to get out of the fog I was stuck in for so long."

Gabriela is fantastic!
Through practical and easy practices, she guides you to find your inner truth and supports your journey to get there.
She takes you into your uncomfortable zone and with very specific questions, you end up embracing your fears; breaking them down into small pieces of a puzzle that you rebuild according to your true values; taking 'easy-to-do' micro-actions day after day, and joyfully accomplishing your bigger goals.
Fears and obstacles turned up as opportunities for reinventing myself, seeing life as a playground to design the life I want. (…)
I am grateful to Gabriela for her deep listening, her creative and effective method, and especially her bubbly and positive personality which maintained me accountable.
