Thomas Katan 👋
I'm like a hot 100% dark chocolate. Comforting, energising and great to sip over random heart conversations. ☕️ My passion is for interconnection and innovation. Working with youth, marginalised adults and entrepreneurs.
As a nomad, I appreciate testing new mental boundaries, recognising fear as a natural response to personal growth through creative ingenuity. Life principles return to a simplified nature directing energy, attention, and trust to what truly matters.
Growing up as a dual national, life has always presented more than one option.
My sports career taught me to turn feedback and failure into fuel for optimisation. While injuries and setbacks expanded my sense of self-awareness and trust.
Trained in a variety of holistic disciplines and received two scholarships to become a certified coach through Co-Active Institute. Which has significantly impacted my approach to client engagement, as I now recognise that each person I speak with is resourceful, creative, and whole.
With over 300 hours of coaching in various environments, I've seen how we all have the answers (to what keeps us stuck, what we want/don't want and where we want to go) but at times connecting them can be challenging.
Since 2008, have been studying the impact of emotions on the body, and researching cross-cultural communication in relationship structures. Furthered my Life Coaching development through Positive Intelligence program which focused on mindset resiliency.
Greatly influence by the works of Dr Hammer and Dr. Gabor Maté who affirm what we intuitive already know. Our body has and knows the answer to life blocks and our process is to build honest conversations with ourselves. Which requires attention to our various senses, including the mind.
Because catalyst-like events encourage bold transformation within ourselves, I've developed emotional frameworks to make difficult topics easier to handle and act on. Stepping outside the safety net of the ordinary and into the purely raw extraordinary.
Life is a mystery, and its greatest gift is discovering inner joy.
