I wanted to run away from my husband on numerous occasions

I believe there’s no one-size-fits-all formula for relationships. This theme came up during the Masterclass on Tuesday. Some say staying together is better than separating. I disagree. As many of us in long-term relationships know, longevity is not a measure of success in a relationship. Does that mean separating is better than staying together? No, […]

I am filled with gratitude, because although it wasn’t always perfect – it somehow ended up perfect just the way it was. The most pronounced feeling that I left […]

The Love for my Mother was Hiding under a Thick Layer of Anger

Traveling tomorrow to be with my mom. Three weeks. I wanted it to be a good chunk of time. Last time we properly connected was 5 years ago, when we spent 6 weeks together. We shared a lot. I felt seen, understood then. I cried with sadness when she left, really felt the separation. Since […]

Behind every smiley family picture there are untold stories of trauma, secrets and pain.

Family life is not a perpetual state of bliss. But it is difficult to normalize the complexity. I still feel “wrong” when it’s not perfect sometimes. Like I did not do enough. Although I also know that I couldn’t possibly do any more.

"Galina is an extremely articulate speaker who courageously brings a wealth of personal life experience to the stage. Speaking from her own lived experience she creates rapport and engagement with the audience while providing valuable life lessons in carving our own path."

- Miroslav Petrovic, Embodied Speaking Training
Book Galina for speaking engagements
"Interviewing Galina is an exploration of themes that we struggle to put words to. Her compassionate approach to life and relationships is expressed succinctly through a deep expertise, born of personal and professional experience. It has been my pleasure to connect my community with Galina’s wise words."

- Monika Carless, Author, Intuitive Coach, Spiritual Midwife
Book Galina for speaking engagements
"Galina’s voice is strikingly unique, particularly in the feminist space. Her words carry the weight of deep self-enquiry and hard-won truth. She offers the reader a bracingly fresh perspective on relationships, femininity, empowerment, and self-responsibility. The revelations she unearths are often profoundly uncomfortable in their clarity but strangely comforting to finally hear spoken out loud. She cuts right through our layers of conditioning to the heart of the female experience."
