Marie Pavelka
Founder of Strengths for All
I am here to personally help you find your unique talents, fall in love with them, use them to everyone's benefit and then ultimately, when you are ready, to transform them into strengths to meet your True Self Within. To do so, I follow the path of knowledge, action and love.
On my journey to the True Self Within I have travelled the world, worked with many diverse organizations; including the global biomedical and engineering leaders. I worked successfully through mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, frequent changes and reorganizations, massive recruitments as well as outplacements. I met people from many cultures, got mentored, coached, challenged, guided and loved.
My life changing moment happened, when I discovered my unique talents and gave myself a permission to use them for the benefits of others. I love connecting the dots, coaching, sharing and co-creating.
I am based in Switzerland. I lived and worked also in England, France and the Czech Republic.
I am Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, Change Facilitator, Certified Talent Assessor and Certified Permaculture Designer. I obtained a university degree in Fine Arts and Pedagogy in the Czech Republic, a MBA degree in England and a language university certificate in France.
I am also an active artist and a social entrepreneur. I support my clients in English, French and Czech languages. For any other languages, I work with my more language gifted strategic partners.

Therapist & Statement Analyst
I deeply believe that every person deserves to be happy and that every person can change their life for the better.
Your subconscious blockages, fears and behavior patterns, which do not allow you to move forward, could be dissolved and changed into positive ones. Your decision to accept my help is usually that first positive step.
As a Certified Hypnotherapist, I am here to help you heal and restore your balance and well-being. I will work with you on all levels of body, mind and spirit as per your needs.
As a statement analyst, I'm here to help you communicate with clarity and conviction. I will also help you understand what others are telling you or not telling you. The scientific approach of statement analysis makes it more than an analysis of your written or oral statements.
This technique can help you express your intention with sincerity. It makes your communication more powerful. To help you become a confident and effective speaker, we work and practice together. You will learn to recognize possible discrepancies and deceptions in other people's statements.
I am also a Certified Permaculture Designer, Initiated Reiki Practitioner and Healing Coordinator. I will help you in English, French and Czech.
