Research shows that everything we do in our lives and the way we deal with it is driven by our mindset: At work, in relationships, with friends, with family, our health, and beyond. Having the right mindset decreases stress, helps us to become more resilient to life’s challenges, and enables us to make the best of opportunities. The tools of effective communication and body language complement the right mindset to help us achieve our goals on a daily basis and in every interaction.
A mindset is a series of self-perceptions or beliefs we hold about ourselves. These determine behaviour, outlook and mental attitude. This effects how you deal with success, failure or challenge, and is your own unique lens of your life.
Those with a fixed mindset may believe “I'm either good at something or I'm not”. With a growth mindset however, you will believe that “I can improve any of my skills with effort and practice”. Having a positive mindset means making positive thinking a habit, continually searching for the silver lining and making the best out of any situation you find yourself in. A strong mindset means more awareness – of self and others - and an increase in your emotional intelligence.
Why is this important? The difference between being happy and successful has a lot to do with your mindset and the way you communicate with the world. Every day, we face challenges at different levels and in different scenarios. The right “No Limits” mindset will help you turn failure (and even fear) into fuel so that you take courageous action and make better decisions moving forwards.
I combine my experience in elite sports, competitive dance, performance coaching and motivation to help people envision and achieve their goals in a relaxed, fun environment. I interact through storytelling and exercises to inspire groups and help maintain focus.
I love to share my experiences of my own personal challenges, and the tools I have gained from my own journey through poverty, violence and tragedy to enduring positivity and success. I am hugely energised by the unique atmosphere that comes from sharing my message to any audience. My aim is to deliver a powerful and moving message to transform lives.
I grew up in an area of Mexico City that suffered from daily cartel violence with numerous threats at knife and gunpoint. In addition, I struggled at school, being diagnosed late with ADHD, with no specialist support and few opportunities. Despite these multiple challenges, I focused on creating and implementing my strategies for growth, positivity and self-confidence, which enabled me to avoid being drawn into gang violence and instead to thrive. I have led numerous sports teams at a national level, created multiple businesses, successfully competed on a national and international level and have travelled to create the life that I truly want and love. Throughout this, I have successfully coached individuals and teams to find happiness and success, to be able to speak with confidence in any situation, resolving conflict in a positive way, and getting the results they want and deserve.
My speciality is personal impact and presence, handling challenges and facilitating conversations and relationships both inside and outside work.
I am a certified coach, Motivational speaker, trainer and child workforce mentor.
For individuals: By becoming a better communicator with a growth mindset, I will support you to build better relationships with family and friends, employees, colleagues and clients.
For teams and businesses: A positive mindset and effective communication is essential for managing relationships personally and at work, within a team, with customers and with stakeholders. These key skills can help improve teamwork and collaboration, foster innovation and resilience, effectively manage conflict and increase employee engagement. Support individuals, teams and companies to thrive. We can also focus on improving individual performance, identifying and develop organizational and individual strengths and development opportunities.
I deliver effective motivational talks, individual and team training and workshops (or a combination) on:
-Positive and growth mindset
-Communication skills
-Presentation skills with body language
-Influencing with confidence
-Giving and receiving feedback
-Unleash the power of your team
I create an engaging, positive and friendly environment and would usually recommend working in-person. In a group environment, I create an energising and fun atmosphere to bring the team together. I ensure that all participants have quality opportunities to practise different techniques and receive personal feedback. Depending to the nature of your enquiry we'll often aim to keep attendees together, to better enable a peer-to-peer learning environment and develop trust and one cohesive team. If appropriate I will work with individuals one-to-one.
Each activity is outcome-led, aimed at helping individuals and teams to develop their positive and growth mindsets, use body language more effectively, and improve communication skills.

I am on a journey to inspire and help people to bring out the best in themselves by sharing the practical, effective tools that have helped me. A huge part of this journey has been my own life experience.
Like many people, I have had to overcome a number of difficult situations in my life, starting with surviving daily cartel violence and numerous threats at knife and gunpoint in the favela where I grew up in Mexico City. As a child, navigating school was a real challenge for me, as I was diagnosed with ADHD but had access to very little specialist support and few opportunities. Nevertheless, I refused gang life and focused on creating and implementing my strategies for growth, positivity and self-confidence, which have supported me to thrive.
The tools I have developed throughout my life have allowed me to lead and coach numerous sports teams at a national level, and to create multiple business streams to support my family and transform our lives despite the tragedies we have faced. I have represented my country on TV and in films; I have competed on a national and international level to become a World Championship performer; and I have travelled to explore and to create the life that I truly want and love.
My experiences have helped me to learn and understand my thoughts and emotions, even under the most challenging of circumstances. Now, I see life very differently, and take pleasure in sharing my experiences with others, to listen, and together to find a way of defining and actioning a positive change. My approach includes encouraging people to make the best of every day, practicing gratitude, developing skills in dealing with stress and taking control of situations rather than letting them control you. These skills combined will put the achievement of a happy life in your hands.
I am direct, clear and respectful in my approach. No matter what you face, my goal is to enable you to think differently about the tools within you, to define and implement positive action. Through motivational speaking and coaching, I aim to inspire you to see how you can make a difference, progress towards your best self and live your best life with No Limits.
