A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Get to know me a little bit more! 😉😉

IMG_0842_(1)_edited.png

Hi, I’m Luba — a Performer’s Mindset Coach and Counselor helping artists, musicians, and speakers reconnect with their confidence, clarity, and authentic presence.

My fascination with human emotions and transformation began in 2003, when I first started exploring psychology. Over the years, this curiosity evolved into a passion for helping people understand themselves on a deeper level — beyond fear, self-doubt, or perfectionism.

Before becoming a coach, I spent over 20 years in the music industry — teaching, performing, and living the ups and downs of creative life. I know what it’s like to face pressure, identity shifts, and moments of self-questioning. Those experiences taught me about resilience, emotional balance, and the mindset needed to perform and live with genuine confidence.

Today, I bring all of that into my work with performers. My approach combines counseling tools, mindset coaching, and deep emotional work rooted in Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and self-awareness practices. Together, we create space for you to:

🎵 Release tension and self-criticism
🎭 Reconnect with your authentic voice and purpose
✨ Develop mental tools for calm, confidence, and clarity

I don’t offer quick fixes or generic affirmations — I guide you to real transformation, helping you understand your patterns, process emotions, and build a stronger, more aligned version of yourself — on stage and beyond it.

If you’re a performer ready to show up with confidence, presence, and inner freedom, I’d love to support you on that journey.
