Elisabetta Franzoso is a life & wellness coach, counselor, trainer, speaker and social activist on a mission to inspire and motivate individuals to re-engage with their authentic inner selves.

Elisabetta’s global work as a coach and trainer brings her joy, and her journey to teaching others how to communicate better first began with her. As a child Elisabetta suffered abuse and neglect, and it’s these experiences that inspired her and set her on the path of being an activist and life coach. In this week’s new episode Elisabetta speaks openly and frankly about her relationship with her daughter Stella, and how she found herself repeating the cycle of physical and emotional abuse she encountered as a child. Her journey seeking help and changing her pattern of behavior inspired her first book, “Stella’s Mum Got Her Groove Back.” Her decision to no longer revisit the past and take responsibility for her behavior and ask for help allowed her to embark on a journey of self-awareness that completely altered her life. Elisabetta’s reflections on this journey, and why becoming self-aware is so important, will remind you that there is so much joy and strength that comes from knowing who you are, where you’ve been, and where you’re going.

With a willingness, commitment, and courage, Elisabetta was able to transform the negative experiences she suffered as a young woman into something joyful. Her reflections on how these experiences mad her wiser and gave her a sense of strength she didn’t know she had will remind you that every experience in our lives serve a purpose. It’s this strength and wisdom that Elisabetta now shares with her clients all around the world. Elisabetta’s reflections on her journey of transformation and its impact, is a beautiful reminder that despite the ups and downs, we are all here to remember the joy in the journey. Today, Elisabetta lives in Barcelona and works with clients all over the world and her life is full of joy - the kind where she wakes up in the morning and feels happy and inspired no matter what is going on around her.

“I was able, with a lot of willingness, commitment, and courage, to transform the negative in my life that started as a child and young woman. I was able to transform it into something to be joyful about. Because all that I had to go through made me stronger, wiser, and gave me that sense of loving strength within that I love to share today with others.”
