Liz Kostakis

For much of my life, I did what was expected and what made sense. I built a stable career, supported others, and kept going through pressure and responsibility.

‍

More recently, life asked something different of me. I navigated divorce, perimenopause, and the strain of holding it all together while still showing up every day for my children. That experience taught me how deeply stress, control, and anxiety can shape how we live, and how important it is to reconnect with your own voice.

‍

My work as a coach is grounded in that understanding. I help people slow down, loosen the grip of perfection and control, and find steadiness in the middle of real life. I care about creating safe, supportive spaces where people can explore what they need next, without judgement or pressure.

‍

I’m based in Ontario and continue to balance professional life, parenting, and my own growth with honesty and compassion.

Xena represents strength with heart. She’s resilient, imperfect, and willing to face difficult truths while staying true to her values. That balance of courage and compassion is something I try to bring into my coaching.
