Who is behind Sparkles of Life Coaching?

Hello, I am Maja!

Some might say I am a career changer. From Diploma Studies in Interpreting - German and English, to a Master of Science in Environmental Studies, working at the UN in Bonn, having a hands on experience as a director assistant in independent movie and music video projects and so on. Nowadays, I am working as a tax assistant with many other hobbies. Gardening, reading, biking, plant-based cooking, animal protection and being a very dedicated dog mom to a very special golden boy Moby are just some of my hobbies.

Yet, beneath this veneer of change lies a steadfast passion that has always been my compass—connecting with people on a deeper level. People who know me well, know me rather as a soul reader or a hobby psychologist. Sometimes you can see me at the bar in the small local brewery in Cologne Ehrenfeld, savoring a craft beer while immersed in a Carl Jung's book. People then ask me, isn't it exhausting to read specialist literature after a long working day at the office. Nope, not for me. I can listen effortlessly to a human design/Eckart Tolle/Joe Dispenza book for 4 hours without a break because for me it is so fulfilling and natural to do just that. I could have the most stressful day possible at the office and still be able to coach someone in the evening and transfer him a plenty of positive energy. 
So that's me. A generator myself bursting with sustainable energy with 2 defined channels: "concentration/focusing determination" and the ability to share all the knowledge from a variety of areas through my other defined channel "inspiration/the creative role model". 
Throughout the years, I’ve had the privilege of guiding friends and acquaintances toward happiness and fulfillment, witnessing their transformation into inspiring figures themselves. It fills my heart with gratitude to have played a part in their journeys.
After patiently waiting for the right moment, I’m excited to embark on a part-time venture aligned with my calling. Currently, I’m completing my education as a personal coach, with plans to further my studies as a non-medical practitioner for psychotherapy next year. I eagerly await the challenges and incredible experiences that lie ahead.

Hello, I’m Ilina!

I’m a lifelong explorer, driven by passion and purpose, and I’d love to share that journey with you. My life has always been guided by love—it’s the force behind my growth, my courage, and my curiosity. Raised in a home filled with warmth and creativity, I now pour that same love into being a mother, a partner, and a friend. For me, life’s greatest treasures are in the simple moments, and if love is true wealth, I am beyond rich.

My professional journey began in the corporate world, but my heart led me to empower others. From a start in banking, I transitioned to Human Resources, dedicated to helping people reach their full potential. Over 15 years, I’ve explored the mind’s healing power, dived into energy work, and mastered coaching techniques that spark transformation. I’m fascinated by the interplay of thoughts and emotions, and how they shape our reality.

As a Generator in Human Design, I am fueled by the energy of transformation. With my defined channel, “Transformation: Driving Towards Achievements,” I’m always evolving—launching new projects with passion, expanding my skills, and diving into diverse areas of knowledge. My second channel, “Cycles: Beginnings, Middles, and Endings,” guides me to honor every phase of life, strengthening my intuition and knowing exactly when to act.

Through every success and every challenge, I’ve learned that our stories hold incredible power—the power to inspire, to heal, and to connect. My greatest joy is seeing others shine as they embrace their authenticity and step into their own light.

I’m passionate about helping others unlock their unique potential.

Let’s embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation together  embracing your strengths, trusting the rhythm of your own cycles, and celebrating every step of the way!
