Hey! Dr.
Esther Zeledon
Here.
I am a blend of many roles: a dedicated coach, best selling author, passionate entrepreneur, seasoned international development professional, nurturing mother, inspiring mentor, former diplomat, savvy extreme couponer, adventurous travel guru, lively dance enthusiast, and inquisitive scientist.
Above all, my deepest calling is to guide you towards soaring heights in every facet of your life, career, or business. You possess a distinctive blueprint for contributing to the world, and my mission is to help you discover, live, nurture, and share it. Together, we can infuse the world with more purpose, joy, peace, health, love, and prosperity.
As a global citizen, my experiences span diverse landscapes and cultures, from remote jungles and tranquil fishing villages to bustling world capitals and high-powered boardrooms.
This global perspective extends to organizations as well. With a focused mission and robust strategic planning, I empower businesses, governments, and NGOs to align their actions with their vision, creating sustainable and significant impacts in their communities and beyond.
I Grew Up Believing That
The Checkboxes
Of The American Dream Were The Path To Happiness…
So I worked harder than anyone to get the degree, the job, the house, the title that meant security and fulfillment. But I got there, and I was miserable. I realized that I was deeply misaligned and not living my purpose. I believe that each of us has a unique superpower, and I have dedicated my life to transforming aspirations into reality. Too many trailblazers feel stuck, knowing there is greatness inside them waiting to be set free. And having worked around the world, I know that purpose can profoundly impact society. More than individual, creating opportunities for people to live purpose-driven lives can reduce crime, depression, anxiety, and toxic workplaces. Join me in discovering your superpower and creating a world where everyone thrives.
I Am Here
To Change The World
With Paul, I want to show you that we can have vibrant societies, workplaces and homes. We can dismantle limiting beliefs, support each other’s aspirations and create communities that propel us all up. Juntos Avanzamos!
YOU UPLIFT YOURSELF
BY UPLIFTING OTHERS. THE POSITIVITY AND LIGHT YOU SHINE
ON THEM IS REFLECTED
BACK ON YOU TENFOLD.”
As trailblazers, we are the firsts in our fields, our families, and our communities—whether we’re the first to step out of our comfort zones, explore new horizons, or innovate in our workplaces. Our potential is boundless, and our true strength is amplified when shared. Embrace your role as a leader, a mentor, and a catalyst for change. Your journey not only elevates your life but also has the power to uplift those around you.
