Luzia is a gentle space for women moving through meaningful transitions — a place to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself at your own rhythm.

Life often asks us to shift, soften, or begin again. Sometimes by choice, sometimes without warning.

Luzia exists to offer calm, steady guidance through these moments — so you don’t have to navigate them alone.

I’m Joana, the woman behind Luzia, and everything created here reflects the way I’ve learned to move through change: with patience, honesty, and compassion.

What Luzia Supports

• Career transitions & leadership shifts
• Recovery after illness & rebuilding confidence
• Relocation & creating a new sense of home
• Midlife & menopause transitions
• Times when you feel “in between” chapters

These are not theoretical topics for me — they are lived experiences that shaped the way I hold space, listen, and guide.

The Essence of Luzia

At Luzia, change isn’t rushed.
It’s supported — through clarity, calm, and thoughtful guidance.

Each journey is designed to help you:
• understand what you’re carrying
• reconnect with who you are becoming
• and move forward gently, with direction and steadiness

How I Work

Quiet conversation, deep listening, reflection, and practical steps — all at your pace.
This is coaching and mentoring woven together in a way that feels human, grounded, and real.

Why Luzia

“Luz” means light in Portuguese — my mother tongue and the language of the women who came before me.
Luzia carries that lineage: warmth, clarity, and the soft light we sometimes need to take the next step.
