Hi, I’m Gina!
I actually studied management and marketing until my master’s degree and worked for brands and agencies for about 10 years. But a few years ago, a prolonged illness changed everything for me.
I had massive issues with my gut health that had a huge impact on my life. Suddenly, I was not able to eat, workout and live as I was used to. It made me question and reflect on every area of my life as well as myself. Was I even living the life I wanted to live? And was I even the person I wanted to be?
It has been one of the most difficult times in my life, and at the same time the beginning of an amazing lifelong journey of personal growth. I realized, that even though I loved design and communication, I actually wasn’t happy at all with my job and where my life was going.
During my illness, I visited my first Pilates class and directly fell in love with the mindful approach to movement, which was totally different from what I was used to. I felt it in my bones: I want to empower others to experience this as well!
The epiphany about who I wanted to be and what I wanted to do, unfortunately came too late to prevent me from burning out in 2019. But it was exactly that breakdown that enabled me to pick myself back together in a totally different way. Today, I’m incredibly grateful for that wake-up call and can honestly say: the Gina today couldn’t be more different from the girl back then. In all the good ways!
As a Holistic Lifestyle Coach, certified Pilates instructor and founder of RE:SET, I’m now on a path that is not always easy but makes me feel happier and more fulfilled than I ever have been before. And most importantly: I’m living a life that is aligned with my true, authentic self. And that’s something people feel in everything I do.
