About Siska
Hello gorgeous, I am so glad you are here!
My name is Siska Wijaya and I am a Mindset & Empowerment Coach for Introverts who are ready to come out of their shells and develop their inner confidence so that they can live full, inspiring lives.
I’ve come to know for sure that we are responsible for own lives and happiness, and it is our job to seek out the things that light us up and bring us joy. I’d love to help YOU discover that so that you can live your life on purpose.
After all – would you rather let the world program your life for you, or, would you rather make your own choices? (I know which one I’d choose!)
MY BACKGROUND
I grew up in Indonesia, and am now living in Bunbury in Western Australia.
I have always been an introvert and would ALWAYS choose to not say anything than creating a conflict.Whenever I was in a discussion where I knew the answer to a question or had an opinion, I preferred to stay quiet rather than get involved. It was simply easier that way, or so I thought.
Sound familiar?
Growing up, I did not like standing out nor did I talk much. I preferred to be in the shadow and not do anything that could potentially make me the center of attention. Fearing that I would displease others, I never had the confidence to say no or what I truly meant.
Then it happened.
I broke down
I was put on an anxiety medication.
I saw different psychologists.
Even then with all that help, my days always ended up with me wanting to curl up like a ball and feeling tight in my chest.
One day in 2016 I declared to myself that I’d had enough of feeling like this. I wasn’t going to take it anymore!
I began making changes…
I made a commitment to myself to attend yoga classes and practice meditation regularly.
I read books on self-developments.
I worked with a Life Coach.
And lastly…
I enrolled myself in a Life-Coaching course simply because I wanted to grow as a person.
And as the course was progressing, I realised how coaching made my soul singing with joy that I want to keep doing it more and more.
I love seeing my lovely clients having their ‘aha’ moments. Watching them growing as people is TRULY rewarding.
MY LIFE NOW
I am grateful to have gone through those bad times because it makes me who I am today.
Yes I am still shy and introverted, however now I speak up when my boundaries are being crossed and I say no to things that do not light me up without feeling guilty.
I know that being an introvert can be challenging – I get it, I would ALWAYS choose to hide away and not say anything in the past.
However…
If we don’t speak out, how will others know all of the incredible gifts that we have to share with the world? (Yes, I’m talking about YOU!)
SOME FUN FACTS ABOUT ME
- Mushrooms are my fave veggie of all!
- Being in nature and baking delicious treat are my top-2 soul chargers.
- My little nephews are currently my biggest teacher! They remind me to never stop being playful and to always see things from a beginner’s mind.
- In my down time, I retreat to my ‘Zen’ room where it is filled with a yoga mat, a vision board, oil diffuser and affirmation cards. I love to rest there.
- Yoga Nidra and Restorative Yoga are my absolute must to unwind.
MY COMMITMENT TO YOU
I am here to empower you, to support you, to move you past that hiding stage while staying true to your introverted self, so that you can choose to live a life that you love – the one that makes you feel purposeful, intentional and full of joy.
Having worked with a coach myself, I know how powerful it is to have someone in your corner cheering you on and holding you accountable as you are slowly coming out of your comfort zone and making these changes for the better. I must say I would not have been here, fulfilled and content, had I not been coached myself. And I would love to witness the same happening to you – so that you can live a full, inspiring life!
