A highly experienced Heart Intelligence Coach, Gabriel lived most of his life feeling discouraged. Since he was a young boy growing up in Venezuela, he longed to experience the kind of courage and power others had, but he did not know how to ‘get it’. He looked for this courage in others, in relationships, in money, in becoming a successful equestrian rider, a soap opera actor, even a film producer, but the more he looked for ‘it’ in something or someone outside of himself, the more discouraged and alone he felt.
In 2005, after the death of his mother and in the midst of an emotional and spiritual crisis, he began reaching out for help, and found his worldview shaken to its core when his heart finally ‘cracked open’. It was inside his own heart that he finally found what he was longing for. This led to seven years of deep personal development work and beginning his studies in advanced human spirituality.
But it was between 2007 and 2010 while volunteering at two non-profit organizations in South Africa, and counseling hundreds of men and women who were feeling discouraged, depressed, and confused that he discovered his biggest gift and true calling of his soul.
Gabriel’s gift is in working with men and women who have forgotten how courageous and powerful they are, or who need to tap deeper into their inner source of heart-based power than ever before, for the challenges they are facing next. His clients include CEOs, musicians, celebrities, artists, authors, spiritual teachers, mothers, entrepreneurs, therapists, consultants and other coaches – and their lives have been deeply transformed.
Gabriel shares his Heart Intelligence Coaching with only a small group of one-on-one clients a year, and in small group settings and retreats. His clients come to him by invitation or referral only. Working with Gabriel is not for the faint of heart as it requires great courage, determination and commitment. Each one of his clients gets powerful results.
Gabriel has extensive experience in applied psychology, personal development systems, Integral life practice, New Thought/Ancient Wisdom spirituality, HeartMath Technology, and Accelerated Learning Strategies, as well as thousands of hours of experience coaching and counseling people. His daily practice is to do his own inner work in embodying his own Heart Intelligence. He consistently invests in his own personal and professional growth and development.
Now based in Noordhoek, Cape Town, Gabriel speaks with a slight spanish accent mixed with American English. According to one of his closest friends, he has “a Latino heart, an American brain, and an African Soul”. He enjoys deep, powerful conversations over great coffee and making new friends. He loves spending time in nature, riding horses, traveling, and going on long walks with his dog Ubuntu. He loves sushi, curry chicken, pizza and pasta, and he has realized that the more he shares from his heart, the less he knows about life after all!
