When I met with Léo for our first mentoring session I was lost, feeling lost and completely vulnerable in the face of my weaknesses, fears and desires.
As the meetings went by, this Light Man showed me that it was precisely through my vulnerability that I could be myself. Connect with my essence and use my strength to be, and be wherever I wanted. Today I can say that I am more aware of my power of achievement and can envision much higher and more distant flights as well as the size of my dreams.

Being in creative mentorship with Léo means getting the pointers right and going deep into the driving layers of materialization. In affectionate and precise guidance, we outline paths and strategies with the intention of generating a prosperous and solid XÃO. Nothing is the same in meetings, which highlights the process of maturation and personal development proposed in the technique. Anchoring forces with XÃO also brought confidence in autonomous decision-making. The answers are in the midst of our truth.

The mentoring was a rescue, a return full of new things about myself. It all started when I told Léo that I didn't know how to dream. The mentoring process welcomed the past and invited me to a very conscious present, leaving the future tangible, with a strong desire to achieve. I was invited to take the first steps towards my dreams, my saved desires, ideas full of essence and that little by little emerged, I was born for my projects! Today, I live it in practice, a project that was lost within me and with so much potential, Léo very skillfully took me by the hand and helped me FLY.
