Meet Rita Ikhouane – A Journey of Resilience, Empowerment, and Purpose

Rita Ikhouane’s life story is a powerful testament to resilience, determination, and the pursuit of purpose. Born in Morocco and having immigrated to Canada in 1999 at the age of 11, Rita quickly embraced the challenges of adapting to a new culture, language, and environment. Her early years were shaped by an unwavering commitment to independence and hard work. At just 15, she began working part-time jobs while attending high school, instilling in her a deep appreciation for the value of responsibility and the joy of service.

With a passion for humanitarian work and helping others, Rita pursued university studies in International Cooperation and Solidarity, where she nurtured her desire to make a meaningful impact on the world. In 2011, her career led her into the legal field as a paralegal. Her leadership skills, determination, and ability to manage operations soon saw her rise to the role of Director of Operations at a newly founded law firm. Here, she built the firm from the ground up, overseeing departments like accounting and human resources. It was during this time that her natural gift for empowering others truly blossomed, particularly as she guided and mentored young female lawyers to step into their power and unlock their potential.

After a decade of success in the legal field, Rita turned to her other passion—public service—by running for political office at both the municipal and provincial levels in Quebec. Although the experience was rich and rewarding, she realized that her deeper purpose of truly serving people was still not being fully fulfilled.

In search of clarity and alignment with her life’s purpose, Rita took a bold step and embarked on a six-month journey across Southeast Asia. During her travels, she rediscovered herself and her passion for helping others. It was on this transformative journey that she encountered the Jay Shetty Coaching Certification, a program that would ultimately change her life.

The Power of Coaching – Guiding Others to Their Highest Potential

Rita discovered that life coaching was the perfect bridge between her desire to serve others and her mission to help people live their best lives. Through coaching, she found a way to inspire, guide, and facilitate deep, lasting change in those seeking to explore their full potential. Drawing from her rich life experiences in the legal field, humanitarian work, and politics, Rita brings a unique and holistic perspective to coaching. She understands the complexities of life’s challenges, the courage it takes to pursue one’s dreams, and the power of self-discovery.

Today, Rita is dedicated to empowering others to live authentically, boldly, and purposefully. Her coaching path is not just a profession, but a calling—a way to give back to the world and help others navigate the uncertainties of life with confidence, clarity, and courage.

In Rita’s words: “Life coaching is more than guiding people towards their goals. It’s about helping them see the immense potential they carry within, empowering them to break through their limitations, and ultimately, helping them become the best version of themselves. We all have the capacity for greatness—sometimes, all we need is someone to walk the journey with us.

Let me guide you on a transformative journey of self-discovery and empowerment, where the impossible becomes possible, and your potential becomes reality.“
