Creative Designer & Artist

I’ve been part of Trails for several months, and I have immense gratitude for Gabriela, who transformed both my personal and professional growth - what a boost! 

She brings such warmth, empathy, and genuine care to her coaching I can't recommend her enough if you are searching for a supportive and inspiring guide. 

I'm highlighting from Gabriela’s coaching the group sessions, journaling and visual exercises, all with meticulous care. Her tailored support kept me motivated, doing brave steps that transformed obstacles into opportunities, and made me proud of the way I navigate now through challenges. I feel realign with my passions and I have the feeling I'm building a fulfilling live and career.

Writer & Creative Communicator

Trails was the best thing that could have happened to my creative project in 2024. For a year, I had carried a podcast/media project on my back alone, with no strength left to continue, until I felt lost. Then I began following Gabriela’s weekly sessions with other creatives. It was as if I had stopped along the long path of my project, so exhausted, and Gabriela had gently taken it into her hands, allowing me to rest before I could begin walking again. What struck me most was learning, for the first time, to see my project as a living thing. 

I realized I could approach it differently depending on the seasons and my environment—just as one interacts with nature. This perspective helped me rediscover who I was when standing beside my project and how the nature within me could connect harmoniously with the living thing I was creating. Before this, I had pushed myself to the point of exhaustion, unsure if my project would have faded without Gabriela’s guidance.

Working with Gabriela and the Trails community has been the best thing I've done for my personal project. The accountability of the group, and the joy of showing up each month to hear the progress of everyones projects as well as setting my own goals and intentions has helped me not only to push my project more than I ever would have done alone, but also to have compassion for myself and feel okay when things overtake the project. Gabi has a really unique way of understanding everyones project, and asking questions that get you so excited about your own work and believing in the potential it has.

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.

UX Designer
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.
