Your coach: Maria, Profemina team member since 2018


Pregnant and Not Sure What to Do Next?

Should I have an abortion — a question you probably never wanted to face... but now the news of the pregnancy has turned your world upside down. Many thoughts and emotions are probably churning inside you — maybe to the point that you don't even recognize yourself. How do you determine a way forward? How do you reach such a momentous decision that is likely to affect your identity and impact your life as a whole?

Hundreds of women turn to Profemina daily with these exact thoughts and feelings. Based on this experience, my team and I have developed a week-long email coaching journey. Each day, I will accompany you through thought-provoking insights, helping to make sense of the chaos and find your path.

Your Decision Coach

My name is Maria. I am married and mom to two little boys. After graduating in social pedagogy, I started working as a counselor for Profemina. Following the birth of my first child, I began writing passages such as these to help pregnant women in difficult decision-making situations. My writing is influenced by my years of counseling pregnant women as well as my experience as a mother...

Walking alongside you during this week-long coaching program would be an honor. My desire for you is that you would discover your unique strengths and the amazing traits only you possess. Recognizing these is a vital first step in making a decision that is right for you.

Sign up today — I look forward to starting this journey with you!

"While I still haven't been able to make up my mind, I am glad I took the decision coaching. It was a beautiful coaching journey."
