Break free from the prison of perfection.

This is for the busy high-achievers out there, who are tired of trying to get things right and are hungry for something more.

This is for the founders, executives and consultants who are done chasing and want their attention, vitality + pleasure back.

This is for the driven spirits who are ready to take back responsibility and reclaim sovereignty over their precious minds, body and energy.

This is for you.

Repeat after me.

It’s time to savour your life fully!

  • Silba has a unique combination of emphatic listening and caring, deep knowledge of behaviour, psychology and decision making and high intelligence. I don’t think I have ever worked with someone with such high EQ and IQ (often these are negatively correlated in my experience). Since working with Silba I am more comfortable with my work and myself and I am finally releasing and implementing some of my more creative talents. I am more than twice Silba’s age and yet I am learning so much from her - Silba is youthful, fun and wise.

  • Silba really helped and supported me to find my ground during times of change and chaos, to deepen my self trust, self love and acceptance. I left every session feeling clearer, inspired, focused, relaxed, more deeply in tune with myself, my truth, my own inner wisdom, my power and life purpose. Silba helped me navigate my emotions and gave me many tools and wisdom. Investing in 1:1 support with Silba is one of the best gifts I have ever given myself.

    Hana

  • I had been brilliant at bottling up emotions from traumatic situations, putting on a brave face and getting on with it. Naturally this led to bad decisions elsewhere in life. When I started to work with Silba I felt this weight immediately come off my shoulders. The calm, non-judging environment allowed me to say what I felt. And truth be told, it allowed me to be conscious. Conscious that it's ok to be hurt, to be sad. Conscious that some habits or character traits I had weren’t really me and could go. Conscious of the constant challenges we are presented with in daily life. This was one of the best investments I have ever made.

    Luke

  • I was raised to believe that anger is shameful and learnt to suppress it as a child. Silba lovingly guided me into my body, where I could work with the anger and allow it to release in healthy ways. I felt safe and empowered throughout. By the end of our work together, I was able to reclaim power in my body. That's huge!

I now know that I’m fully able to handle everything happening inside and outside of me. Each session is such a surprise. It’s never expected, but it’s always exactly what I need.

    Hannah

  • Working with Silba I have learnt to see and integrate my own power. I have gained the strength to listen and to accept all that is without being overwhelmed, even during major changes. Each session brings us back to something very deep. Silba’s presence in this is a huge support, really.

    Deborah

  • Silba helped me accept all parts of me - all the colours, all the emotions, all the messiness. To embrace my wild! To be completely me without shame, guilt and fear. I feel a lot lighter and free in myself and am so grateful for the tips, tricks and golden nuggets of wisdom Silba shared and that I will have with me for ever.
