Diana, how would you describe yourself to our readers?
I wear many hats—sometimes too many simultaneously and occasionally I forget to swap them in the process. I believe that our identities often compete with one another because we want to be, do, and have so much. My journey, like so many others, is one of rediscovery, of constant growth and powerful transformation while aligning who I am with who I am becoming.
What inspired you to begin your entrepreneurial journey?
It actually began before COVID. A friend encouraged me to collaborate on a wellness project, which led me to pursue certifications I never expected to take seriously. What started as a favour for friends became something I became deeply committed to. When COVID hit, I transitioned from in-person moon circles to online events—and surprisingly, that opened a door to something greater.
How did intuitive coaching come into the picture?
During one of the summits I joined, I met my first coach. She made me aware that I held untapped potential. I started with mid-ticket coaching programs, and while some were disappointing, joining a mastermind helped me realise my true calling—holding sacred space and guiding others through intuition. It wasn’t just a skill—it was something I’d been doing unconsciously throughout my life.
What are the core niches you work in?
I operate in three interconnected niches: grief counselling, relationship coaching, and self-development. Grief isn’t just about losing someone—it could be the end of a relationship, losing a job or a part of yourself. I also delve into relationships, especially the one we have with ourselves, because it impacts each relationship we hold dear – especially the ones with our loved ones. Self-growth is the key.
How do clients usually find you?
Mainly through referrals. I’ve always relied on organic growth. After finishing a coaching package, clients often recommend me to others. If those referrals sign up, I offer the referring client either a discounted package or a session as a token of my appreciation.
What’s the biggest challenge you’ve faced in your business?
Commitment. I only continue working with clients who show up for themselves. If I don’t see commitment after three sessions, I kindly part ways. Transformation requires effort, and I’m here to support them to BEcome their best version of Self, not to do it for them. Their life journey is theirs to own.
Are you planning to evolve your work or rebrand in the near future?
Yes, absolutely. I’m planning to transition from being known as an intuitive coach to an intuitive psychologist. I’m currently pursuing further qualifications because I believe in blending psychology and intuition. Therapy helps us heal our past; coaching unlocks our potential. Together, they offer powerful transformation and growth.
What are your short-term goals for this year?
I have a few! I want to relaunch my podcast, Shine Your Light Unapologetically, and take it from being in the Top 10% to getting into the Top 5% globally. I also want to repurpose D. Intuitive Tea Talk Show, which used to be a weekly FB live, into a YouTube channel. Furthermore, I am going to publish my poetry book “Mandalas of Souls and Stars” by the end of this year. And finally, I am aiming to create consistent 10K months in my business by supporting my ideal clientele.
Any message you’d like to share with men in our audience?
I don’t believe in motivation—I believe in inspiration. Motivation is external and fleeting; inspiration comes from within. Don’t wait for someone to lead—forge your own path. Be a trailblazer and know that you are worthy and deserving of the best.
“Inspiration comes from within. Stop dimming your light to make others feel comfortable—shine it unapologetically and lead by example. Listen to your intuition and BEcome the SHEro you were meant to be.” — Diana Matei
