Who I Work With

I support those standing at a threshold, whether you are an established professional pivoting your career, a student seeking your next step, or a creative looking for alignment. If you feel a nudge that something needs to shift, I am here to help you move forward with clarity, courage, and purpose.

Why work with me?

I help people navigate personal, academic, and professional transitions through a unique combination of anthropological insight, coaching, and lived experience across cultures, institutions, and life transitions.

✨ This perspective is grounded in:

- PhD in Social & Cultural Anthropology, University of Vienna.

- Academic background in Sociology (MA) & Business Administration (BA).

- 20+ years of academic and professional experience.

- ICF-Accredited Process-Oriented Systems & Executive Coaching Training.

- Worked across diverse cultural and institutional contexts.

- Published researcher and workshop facilitator.

I believe everyone deserves support grounded in trust rather than judgment, someone who walks alongside you as you reconnect with your direction, strengths, and possibilities, and gain the clarity you need to move forward.

"Working with Noura was an absolute game-changer for me! I was feeling overwhelmed and unsure how to tackle my academic goals, but Noura's energetic and approachable style immediately put me at ease. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and strategic, but her sessions were genuinely fun – I actually looked forward to our meetings!

Noura took the time to deeply understand my situation, and her insights from a disciplinary angle were invaluable to regain my academic voice and effectively navigate feelings of impostor syndrome. Her ability to break down complex tasks into manageable steps, all while keeping things light and often hilarious, made a huge difference. I went from feeling stuck to feeling motivated and confident. If you're looking for an academic coach who is not only excellent at what they do but also makes the process enjoyable, look no further. I can't recommend Noura enough!"
