Our clients’ experience

Joana Alves - Burn(out) Stress - Walking Mentorship

Exit our comfort zone is fundamental to tackling such an important topic

The importance of disconnecting and exiting the hamster wheel through the framework of the various dynamics. Mentoring helps organize the information in our heads. I highlight the moments of sharing with fellow travellers that allow us to get to know the human side in greater depth.

“This program was amazing, it mixes up two things I love; walking in nature and talking about life.”

It was really an incredible experience to go through all those 8 steps with Nuno, which guided me in a brilliant way. When I started the program I was in between jobs, moving from one that didn't make me happy to one I always wanted. Nuno helped me to slow down, analyze my past, and showed me the way to re-design my future in a more structured and smarter way.

Head of Customer Success at Tesselo

Reflect and deconstruct our difficulties.

The experience in walking mentorship was just fantastic and exceeded my expectations, forcing me to leave my comfort zone and reconnect with myself, to know how to listen to me. João helps us to reflect and deconstruct our difficulties more easily, and he is a great listener and advisor! I met many extraordinary people and they all have a very special place in my heart. It was very exciting.
