In this episode, Zenzi Sewaah speaks with Ibeth Ayala, a Life Design Facilitator, Innovation Coach, Author, and Breathwork Practitioner based in Southern Ontario, Canada.
Born in Mexico and having lived across the U.S., Germany, the U.K., and now Canada, Ibeth draws from her diverse global experiences to help people design lives they truly love. She supports both corporate leaders—through innovation coaching, team-building, and burnout management—and individuals through her life design framework, personal coaching, and breathwork practices.
Ibeth shares her journey of resilience, including divorce, cultural transitions, and spiritual awakening. She emphasizes the power of breathwork, self-connection, and owning our choices as tools to transform challenges into opportunities.
She has authored two books available on Amazon:
* No Risk, No Fun: The Human Side of Innovation and Insurance (English & Spanish)
* From the Ground Up: Design a Life You Love
She also offers online and in-person programs, monthly donation-based breathwork sessions, and upcoming retreats focused on burnout recovery and personal alignment with nature.
Ibeth’s key message: Life is a constant process of design. You are the creator of your own experience—own it, breathe through it, and live it with courage.
