ABOUT
At Nomad, we design products & experiences that expand the mind & inspire self- discovery through Self-Awareness workshops and spiritual wellness retreats.
Using the principles of Design Thinking, Mindfulness Meditation and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), we help individuals step outside their current experience to gain new awareness and rewrite their story in a way that opens up new choices and possibilities.
The more self-aware you are, the more you are able to understand others because you will see some of their behaviours in your own. This, in turn, will lead you to a greater acceptance of others, empowering you to effectively lead and motivate people, and develop mutually beneficial relationships.
Hi! I'm Ivana {Ee-vaa-nuh}, and I created Nomad. I grew up in Belgrade and Malta. After spending a few years in Victoria, BC, I moved to North Carolina to play tennis. In 2008 I settled in Toronto. Immigration is a big part of my story. As is change.
I am an NLP Master Practitioner, a Meditation teacher certified by the Canadian Yoga Alliance, a design thinker and workshop facilitator. I like creating tools that help myself and others activate change and come out of hiding. Personal discovery and learning are a never-ending process.
I look for new ways to tackle problems creatively and use a variety of approaches. I believe that looking at problems from different perspectives allows more information to come into our awareness, generating new ideas and even re-defining problems. I enjoy designing experiences and creating a supportive environment for people to discover their uniqueness.
