I am your career coach
Hello! I am Maya Nyagolova – certified coach, psychologist, educational scientist, and mother myself.
More than 15 years ago, I moved from Bulgaria to Germany. My own journey hasn’t always been straightforward and that’s exactly what showed me how important it is to be brave and take new steps.
Today, I support international mothers in finding their own career path after parental leave – with confidence, clarity, and in harmony with their lifestyle.
My career path
Academic foundation:
- B.Sc. Psychology with a focus on occupational and organizational psychology
- M.A. Educational Sciences with a focus on counseling and organization
- Certified professional coach (German Federal Coaching Association, IOBC-registered)
Career history:
- HR management in the private sector
- Development of psychological aptitude tests at a university
- Counseling refugee teachers
- Developing policies for migrants and their social participation at the local administrative level
What connects all these stages is my desire to accompany people in their development – with respect for their history and confidence in their potential.
My mission
I support international women – especially mothers – in finding fulfilling and meaningful jobs that suit their strengths and are compatible with their lifestyles.
I know how challenging it can be to return to work after parental leave. That’s why I want to help you gain clarity, recognize your strengths, and reposition yourself in your career with confidence.
The way I want to go
My vision
I am committed to ensure that mothers are seen as valuable professionals – in a working world that views work-life balance not as an exception, but as the norm.
