Results Focused

Empathetic
When Dina’s not coaching, you can find her cooking up a storm, or singing and recording her own songs. Dina coaches in-person in Los Angeles and Orange County and via Zoom all over the world.
Dina really helped me gain greater perspective on the work I do and helped me think about things differently. I no longer carry the weight of my work the way I used to – I still feel it all, but it doesn't feel as burdensome as it once was. I also have been much better about setting boundaries, but inside and out of work, allowing me to be more focused and present. Both of these have had a tremendous impact on me, my team and how I show up for them
