Working with Katarzyna
Piotr: Katarzyna, what were you hoping to get from coaching when we started?
Katarzyna: I wanted a space where I could talk freely and genuinely, without pretense, but with real attentiveness. I needed help seeing my strengths clearly, and connecting the dots between things that felt like chaos or just “the usual paths.”
Piotr: What did you feel stuck on at the time?
Katarzyna: I was trying to make sense of my direction and my next steps. I could not see the non‑obvious options, and I needed a way to step back and look at my work and my choices with fresh eyes.
Piotr: What was different about our approach?
Katarzyna: You did not push ready‑made answers. Instead, your questions opened up space for new possibilities. I felt encouraged to define, validate, and solidify the results myself.
Piotr: What changed for you after the work together?
Katarzyna: I could see my work from the side again. With more freshness, more clarity, and more new ideas. It felt like I was stronger and more grounded in what I wanted to do next.
Piotr: What would you tell a designer considering coaching but unsure?
Katarzyna: If you want to strengthen yourself and define your direction with honesty, I highly recommend working with Piotr.
