23. Adelina’s story
"I learned about Pas while I had a challenging situation in my life - I had an almost
1y.o daughter and my husband was recovering after a burnout, searching for a job,
and given my profession as a Career Transition Coach, I felt it was my responsibility
to support him in finding a new role, knowing the challenges that my coachees were
facing in finding a job, at the same time it was totally different – because he was part
of my what really matters and the family time."
