Hi, I’m Fabi.

I'm a life and career coach — and I'm also still very much in the career.

For 28 years, I've worked in book publishing. Today I serve as Executive Director of Production — a role I'm proud of, in an industry I love, with people doing work that genuinely matters.

I’m also a mom of two — a daughter building a life of her own and a son not far behind. The house is getting quieter. The roles that filled my days for two decades are shifting. If you know that feeling, I’m not describing it from a distance — I’m living it too.

And a few years ago, alongside all of that, I started to notice something. I was accomplished. Respected. Doing well by every external measure. And quietly, underneath all of it, I kept asking a question I hadn't quite let myself take seriously: 

"Is this the full picture? Or is there something more I want from this one life?"

Not a crisis. Not burnout. Just a persistent, quiet pull toward something I couldn't yet name.

Coaching gave me a space to finally hear myself. Not to blow everything up. Not to walk away from what I'd built. But to get genuinely honest about what I wanted — and to start moving toward it. It changed the way I relate to my work, my choices, and myself. And I knew it was something I wanted to offer others.

I coach alongside my career — and I think that matters.

I'm not someone who left the professional world and now coaches from the outside looking in. I'm still in it. I understand the demands, the identity that gets wrapped up in a title, the pressure to keep performing, and the quiet fear that wanting more means being ungrateful. I know this territory from the inside. And I know that finding more purpose doesn't have to mean burning down what you've built.

Most of the time, it's much closer than you think.

Outside of work — both kinds — you’ll usually find me in the water or with knitting needles in my hands. Swimming is where my best thinking happens; there’s something about moving through water instead of fighting it that I try to bring to everything else. And knitting has taught me more about building a life than any business book: one stitch at a time, a palette you chose yourself, and full permission to undo a few rows when the pattern isn’t working.

My approach is warm, direct, and deeply collaborative.

I don't give advice or tell you what to do. I ask the questions that help you hear yourself more clearly — so the decisions you make are genuinely yours.

Sessions feel like a conversation with someone who's fully in your corner, genuinely curious about you, and completely free of judgment.

I hold my Co-Active Practitioner credential from the Co-Active Training Institute — one of the most respected coach training programs in the world — and am currently working toward my ACC (Associate Certified Coach) certification with the International Coaching Federation.

If any of this sounds familiar — if you're the accomplished professional with a quiet voice you haven't quite let yourself listen to — I'd love to talk.
