About

I am Lucica Ibanescu, but call me Lu

your Leadership & Confidence coach

I am a professional ACC coach working with women in tech who are leading or aspiring to lead: managers, team leads, team coaches and anyone at the intersection of people, teams, tools and high-pressure hierarchical layers.

I help you find:

1.  the confidence to dream (again) boldly +
2. the clarity to design the next steps +
3. the resilience to navigate the bumps along the way.

Reach out whenever you find yourself facing a pivotal moment, wondering "Is this all there is?"


💰 to re-write your definition of success, in a way that honours your worth, priorities and ambitions. Away from fabricated pressure & constant urgency.

♾️  to jump out of the emotional loop that keeps you STUCK, in overthinking mode - clarify your next steps before you burn out, give up on your dreams, sacrifice your health or abandon ship.

⚓️ to re-define your purpose and ask for more, away from un-friendly systems that you out-grew years ago

😰  to navigate a stressful TRANSITION: into leadership or entrepreneurship, into motherhood & back to work, through perimenopause or towards new chapters. With a companion, not in isolation anymore.

🔎 to face UNCERTAINTY, doubt or too many options-  maybe you feel the call for a change,  seek clarity or wish to stop avoiding that hard thing :)

You

It´s all about you

You are...
... asking more from life & work, audacious, smart, driven and a bit of a rebel    

... wearing (too) many hats and too often in low-energy mode from taking care of everything and everyone

...  overworked & undervalued at work, home or both

... feeling that you have to prove yourself, try harder, please or emulate others in order to fit in

... made small, feeling un-trusted and un-safe to use your voice
You believe...
... that success, recognition and growth should NOT come with burnout or sacrificing your wellbeing, dreams and authentic self.

... in working smart, not hard. In being bold & assertive, in healthy boundaries and work / life blending.

... in empathy, team spirit, in playing the long term game, in learning from mistakes and asking for help

... in operating from a place of (self)worth, confidence & trust, and healthy ambition

You want...
... to live and lead with purpose, not pressure, THRIVING at the intersection of work and family

... to move through transitions with a clear direction, clarity and confidence.

... to craft a path forward aligned with your authentic self, not just impressive on paper

.... to be respected, seen, heard, supported, trusted, valued, promoted and ... PAID! 💰

You deserve...
... evidence-based coaching and practical tools from trained professionals who know how to guide your exploration

... to learn how to leverage your strengths, not only improve your weaknesses, leaning into your growth & abundance mindset

... to learn to focus on recovery & a sustainable pace, not just on constant effort

... to become intentional, strategic, focused and discipled in the execution of your plans
