Welcome to MyAria

Hi, I’m Maria — and I’m so glad you’re here.

Your presence here already reflects something meaningful: a willingness to pause, explore, and invest in a more meaningful way of living and working through greater self-understanding, agility to change and desire to create your own meaningful legacy.

Before we begin, here’s a little about me. I’m a proud mother of two, a lover of dance, hiking, laying on the beach with a good book and — as many people in my life would say — a recently obsessed padel player!

At the heart of who I am is a deep love for supporting people to thrive by being forth their unique way of being. Perhaps that is because in my life I was blessed to have had so many great mentors and teachers that encouraged me to be myself and live life open to always evolving and growing. It is because of these moments that MyAria was born.

MyAria is dedicated to supporting emerging and evolving leaders as they deepen their self-awareness, reconnect with their embodied authenticity, and learn to lead with greater clarity, presence, and intention.

The name MyAria comes from the belief that each of us carries a unique aria — a distinct set of skills, voice, energy, and presence that is entirely our own. In music, an aria is a solo expression: personal, powerful, and unmistakable. In life and leadership, our aria is the way we inhabit the world. It is the space we create through our voice, emotions, reactions, actions, relationships, decisions, and way of being.

Over the past 20 years, my experience as a Talent Partner has taken me across continents, with experiences living and working in South America, Southeast Asia, and Europe. As a trusted advisor to Business leaders, I can relate to the dizzying effect of an ever changing corporate landscape. Often misunderstood and overwhelmed, the need for leaders to be supported in their leadership presence is critical as they work to influence teams as they navigate the consistent challenges of emerging technologies on organizational outcomes.

These experiences allowed me to gain a deep appreciation and understanding of the emotional, relational, and human dimensions of leadership — especially during times of uncertainty and transition. What I have learned is being authentic and comfortable in uncertainty is now the new normal. All of us in different walks of life have to strengthen our capacity to hold complexity without either freezing or forcing false clarity. It is acceptable for us to pause and not have all the answers, while keeping ourselves open to what emerges from our others and the environments in which we operate.

MyAria coaching helps leaders become more attuned to that inner and outer space — to understand how they show up, how they relate, and how they move through the world with both expertise and uncertainty. . When leaders understand themselves more fully, they are better able to live, lead, connect, and make decisions from a place of openness, authenticity, alignment, and purpose.

At its heart, MyAria is an invitation to return to oneself and place trust in the fullness of who you are.
