Mariano Alvarez
I help successful leaders and creatives move beyond their current plateau and unlock their next level of impact, fulfillment, and authentic influence.
This isn't about working harder; it's about shifting within and the results you seek.
Through my Shift In Life framework, we make two fundamental shifts: moving beyond our limited perception to gain greater perspective, and shifting from seeking control to consciously owning our influence.
This structured approach helps align your values, mindset, and actions for sustainable, authentic success.
Lead with Clarity, Confidence, and Impactful Authenticity.
This structured coaching journey guides you beyond plateaus by aligning your values, mindset, and actions. We help you shift your perspective and unlock your influence, creating sustainable success and fulfillment without burnout.
To spark the essential clarity in leaders that creates a ripple effect of positive influence.
My journey has been one of constant creation and reinvention—from IT consulting to hospitality to coaching. Having lived in five countries, I learned how to adapt and fit in while staying true to myself—a challenge we all face professionally. Powerful shifts come from adapting from within while staying clear on who you are, despite circumstances. I created Shift In Life to help guide leaders navigate their own transitions, see themselves clearly, own their influence, and lead authentic lives.

Mariano's coaching helped me gain immense clarity on what's truly mine to own as a leader. Being able to separate my stuff from everyone else's baggage has been transformative, both personally and professionally. Having Mariano as a sounding board and thought partner has been invaluable in this process. Our conversations always feel insightful and help me connect with a deeper understanding of myself."
Luciana, Culinary Operations Manager, Los Angeles, CA
This coaching process has taught me that I have power over my thoughts and that I get to choose what to do with my emotions. This allows me to act and make decisions fully awake. Mariano’s capacity for listening and taking in what is said creates a quality space for new ways of thinking through trust and respectful interaction. Above all, the questions he has presented to me and the words he uses have made me evolve beyond my original goals.
