Among many other things, Elisabeth Villiger Toufexis is a life coach, neurolinguistic practitioner, hypnotherapist, author, motivational speaker, director of the Global Woman Club Cyprus, and podcast host.
Elisabeth Villiger Toufexis was born to a 16-year-old mother in Switzerland. After a challenging childhood, growing up without parental guidance and being bullied at school for it, she decided to travel far away from home and start over by becoming a tour guide. For 11 years she worked all over the world and in the meantime, she has travelled to over 100 countries and speaks 6 languages. During one of her trips in the US in 1989, she unintentionally ended up in one of Anthony Robbins public speaking seminars and bought his book “Unlimited Power” and up until today she applies the techniques which she learned from it. Her most wonderful take away from all her travelling is realizing that we are all the same, we all have the same needs for safety, we all seek happiness, and we all try to avoid suffering.
After settling down in Cyprus and while raising her two beautiful children there, she started off on a more entrepreneurial venture, importing quality wooden toys from Germany and had shops all over Cyprus. She decided to end this chapter after 6 years as she wanted to be less tied down and have more flexibility with her time.
Through her work life and by being a mother, but also through her genuine interest in other people, she acquired a lot of people skills and wanted to use them to help others around her. She did this by becoming a Life Coach. Knowing that in order to be a good coach, she would need the right tools; she trained as a Life Coach, NLP practitioner and Hypnotist while working as interpreter for the European Police Association. It has now been 8 years since she became a certified coach and hypnotherapist and has helped hundreds of people change their lives by removing limiting beliefs, fears, and anxiety from their minds to help them leave their comfort zone to live their full potential. She is also a certified Reconnective Healing Practitioner.
As an international motivational speaker, she has been able to stand on many stages around Europe and the Middle East including Cyprus, Lebanon, Switzerland, Romania, Albania, Dubai, New York, Los Angeles as well as in the United Kingdom for the Global Woman Summit. Since 2019, she is the Regional Director of the Global Woman Club Cyprus.
Another passion of hers is putting all of her experience and coaching advice to words, which is why she is also the author of the book “The Soul Kit - First Aid for the Soul” which is also available as a video course. In the meantime, she has written various other ebooks.
