Meet Sandra

NLP Trainer, TEDx Speaker, and well-being Advocate.

Founder of Da Silva Training Academy, Sandra specializes in empowering professionals through transformative techniques, designed to promote both personal and professional growth.

How it all began.

With 30 years of experience in the corporate world, I gained invaluable insight into leadership, communication, and working with diverse teams across the globe. While these experiences were rewarding, they didn’t fully ignite my passion. Deep down, I knew I was meant to make a more meaningful impact on people’s lives, but I wasn’t sure how.

The turning point came when the company I was working for closed its doors. Jobless and uncertain of what to do next, I had no idea that this setback would become the greatest blessing of my life. It set me on a journey of self-discovery and transformation that ultimately led me to where I am today.

At that time, I faced overwhelming challenges: struggling with self-doubt, navigating a difficult divorce, and grappling with limiting beliefs that held me back. The thoughts that echoed in my mind were harsh and unrelenting: “You’re not good enough. Who do you think you are? You’re a failure’.

But I turned those voices into fuel. Fast forward to today, and I can proudly say: HELL YES, I am successful. HELL YES, I am intelligent and capable. HELL YES, I am financially abundant, healthy, loved, and thriving in every aspect of my life.

Was it easy? Absolutely not. Was it worth it? HELL YES!

I’ve since become a TEDx speaker, overcoming imposter syndrome along the way, and sharing my story with others to inspire growth and change. I’ve spoken at various events, served as the Master of Ceremonies for BPW Cyprus, and trained individuals to become certified NLP Practitioners. As a dedicated board member of the BPW English Speaking Club, I continue to empower others to break through their limitations and achieve their goals.

I’m here to show you how you, too, can overcome your own barriers, achieve what you desire, and create more time for what truly matters—family, friends, hobbies, and the quiet moments just for you.

With an expansive toolbox of transformative techniques, I help you unlock your full potential. I’m a Certified and Accredited NLP Trainer & Coach, Timeline Therapist, Hypnotherapist, Emotional Intelligence Coach, Corporate Well-Being Coach, Reiki Master, and Speaker. I’m ready to help you achieve the success you deserve.

What makes me different, the experience growing from being broken and unhappy to being successfully abundant in my life. My love and loyalty to my clients. Refusal to settle for anything but the best, with a no BS attitude.  

I believe that true success is achieved when professionals embrace continuous growth—both personally and professionally.

My mission is to empower professionals to achieve lasting success, by providing transformative coaching and training
that enhances overall well-being.

Sandra is definitely the kind of person we all need in our lives
I met Sandra 2 days after I had lost my job and felt lost and disoriented. Initially she helped me to keep smiling and to keep focusing on important matters. Subsequently, during the job search process, she was the best support I could ever wish for. Always positive and enthusiastic, so genuine and the most ardent believer in my capabilities and intelligence.
