Maria Sophia is a spiritual teacher who transitioned from a successful career in start-ups and Fortune 500 companies to embrace her authentic intuitive gifts. Despite achieving corporate success, Maria felt limited in expressing her full potential in traditional work environments. Her journey of self-discovery led her to dedicate more time to spiritual practices, where she found a community that recognized and valued her unique abilities. This shift in perspective empowered Maria to fully embrace her spiritual gifts and channel them into serving others. Now, as a spiritual teacher, she guides individuals to access their own innate "superpowers" by encouraging them to look inward rather than seeking external validation. Maria's approach combines her corporate experience with spiritual insight, helping clients unlock their authentic intuitive gifts for personal growth and fulfillment.
