Hello and welcome! I’m Asya Palatova—a career and life-alignment coach, designer, and creative guide.

I’m an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) through the International Coaching Federation and trained as an IFS-Informed Coach through the IFS Institute. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS™) into my practice to help clients deepen self-trust, understand and shift inner patterns, and lead from within. This work has also helped me fully embrace and integrate my creative pursuits—design, ceramics, and coaching—which inform and enrich how I show up with clients. My approach is straightforward and gently transformative, rooted in deep listening, mutual respect, and care.

For over 20 years, I’ve built and nurtured my own design and ceramics business. Along the way, I discovered my deeper calling: supporting others through creative transitions, career shifts, and moments of reinvention—especially when something inside is ready to change.

I work with artists, entrepreneurs, and mission-driven professionals who want to align with what matters and move forward with clarity and purpose. Whether you're refining your brand, exploring new possibilities, or reconnecting with your creative voice, I offer grounded support and intuitive guidance.

I began my creative journey studying graphic design at the University of Cincinnati, where I also fell in love with ceramics. That spark eventually led me to earn an MFA from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), a transformative experience that deepened my practice and artistic voice.

From there, I launched Gleena Ceramics, my line of handcrafted porcelain pieces designed for quiet rituals and everyday beauty. Building a business from scratch taught me how to stay true to a vision while evolving through change—wisdom I now bring into my coaching.

My practice is anchored in sustainable self-care, presence, and soulful momentum.
