About Francesca

How I found my passion

I’m Francesca Carelli and I am an MCLC certified life coach, executive coach, and inspirational speaker based in New York City. I discovered my passion for coaching in 2016 after graduating from a personal and professional development program, where I first began coaching part-time, while working as an entrepreneur and executive in the fashion industry.

Throughout the course of my 20+ year career, I was recognized professionally as a goal-oriented leader and motivator astute at coaching, mentoring and improving productivity and growth. These achievements allowed me to hone my skills at being fully present in all situations and as a good listener. Whether I was with employees, clients or with other leaders, I had the ability to deeply immerse myself in other people’s world.

Combining these skills together with the tools I have as a coach I feel grateful and empowered to be able to help other people through their struggles of everyday life.

My Italian heritage

Being born and raised in Italy, I have always carried with me my heritage, my passion for my country and my love for food.   Travelling the world and having a great interest in new cultures and history, has enlarged my view and my understanding of diversity and how fascinating it is to be immersed in the social norms and culture of other countries. I love human beings! We are so wonderful, extraordinary and full of resources. Sometimes we are not even aware of our unlimited capabilities.

When it comes to coaching I’m more than happy to hold coaching sessions in Italian as well as English.

Volunteering and Pro bono coaching

An important part of my journey is my commitment to give back to the community and I do so mainly in two ways.

Firstly I have spent the last eight years supporting the homeless population in New York City. As a volunteer, I connect with this challenged population lending support, comfort and providing aid. Through coaching, I have witnessed the successful transformation of many individuals who recreated themselves and rebuilt their lives under my guidance. Witnessing such incredible transformations has had a profound impact on me personally and professionally. It has given me a deep-rooted confidence in coaching and how it can positively impact and transform those in need – even a critically underserved group so desperate for assistance.

Another way I try to give back is through pro bono coaching. In addition to my traditional clients, I assist unemployed people with financial struggle, to reassess their careers and reset their goals. Most importantly, I guide them through this journey to find purpose in their lives again, despite their difficulties. Click here to read more.
