Welcome to Find The Spark Within 

Author & Coach Emilia Sandoiu

Allow me to introduce myself…

take action program
Awarded the ‘Exceptional Leader of Excellence’ award from the Women Economic Forum (WEF) in London, for my work in youth empowerment and self-development. I’m passionate about inspiring women to find their voice, take action, and lead with purpose.

Hi! I’m Emilia — an award-winning author and action-based mentor supporting women through seasons of transition.

I created Find The Spark Within for women like you who feel they are at a turning point in life — where something needs to change, yet clarity, confidence, and direction still feel uncertain. You don’t need more information; you need practical steps, structure, and grounded support to help you move forward.

Because clarity doesn’t arrive before action — it is created through action. And often, what you truly need is not more pressure or motivation, but the right support, structure, and space to reconnect with yourself so you can move forward with confidence and intention.

I work with women who are:

  • in a season of transition or change
  • feeling stuck, uncertain, or disconnected from themselves
  • ready to stop overthinking and start moving forward
  • looking for clarity, direction, and grounded support

This is for individuals who are ready to take responsibility for their next chapter — through small, intentional actions that build clarity, confidence, and momentum.

My journey has not always been defined by confidence or clarity.

In 2009, I became a single mother in London, navigating a period of emotional and financial uncertainty. I know what it feels like to rebuild from scratch alone while striving to stay strong for yourself and others.

During that time, I turned to personal development, neuroscience, NLP, writing, and practical mindset tools — not as theory, but as a way to rebuild my life step by step.

Over time, I began to shift — not through perfection or waiting for the “right moment,” but through consistent, imperfect action. That experience shaped the way I work today.

An award-winning author of Your Future Starts Today and Licensed Master NLP practitioner, with over 17 years of experience in coaching, mentoring, and leadership development, my work has been shaped through both professional practice and lived experience.

Over time, work with individuals and groups has focused on confidence-building, goal setting, mindset development, and personal growth — supporting women just like you to move from feeling stuck into clarity, direction, and aligned action.

My approach combines lived experience, structured tools, and practical mentoring to support real-world change and sustainable progress.

The journey behind this work is also personal. A lifelong love of reading and personal development eventually led to writing Your Future Starts Today, sharing both story and practical strategies for taking consistent action and achieving meaningful goals.


You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin. But you do need to start taking steps forward.And often, the difference between staying stuck and moving forward… is not motivation — it’s structure, support, and action.

Today is the right time to break free from your self-limiting beliefs and fears.
You may have the life you desire and always dreamed of if you just read, think, and act because Your Future Starts Today.

Your Future Starts Today is the 5 step-by-step guide to an inspired life and the blueprint on :

  • mastering your emotions and living in the present moment rather than surviving, and beginning your self-discovery journey
  • identifying your life purpose and increasing self-esteem by overcoming limiting beliefs
  • understanding how I overcame my fears and phobias, and how you can too
  • taking action and accomplishing your goals in simple, effective steps
  • increasing self-awareness and developing emotionally and spiritually.

Your Future Starts Today – The 5 Step Guide To An Inspired Life

This book is the blueprint you need-for increasing self-confidence by overcoming fears and limiting beliefs. A practical guide to mindset, clarity, and taking action toward your goals.

Therefore, I made it my mission to help millions of women gain clarity and take action to create the life they want. This mission inspired me to create Take Action Now™ Programs.

Successful Transformations and Testimonials

“Emilia came at the perfect time in my life whenever I was in the process of making some serious changes. 

She helped me discover so many things about myself internally and because of her coaching and passion to help people reconnect with their dreams, I was able to start my path of filling in the gap between my wishes and goals. 
I gained a LOT more clarity in my vision of what I really want for myself and was able to finally lay out my real mission in life.

She has this special talent of helping you dig deeper into yourself and drawing out your inner wisdom. I didn’t realize how many questions that I already knew the answer for! 
Our session has been over for quite sometime now but it didn’t just end there. I now have so many useful tools and strategies that I’ll be able to carry with me for the rest of my life and also pass down to my four children. 

Not only did I gain some amazing knowledge, I also gained a lifelong friend! With her help I have more confidence in myself, I am more organised, gained a clearer vision of my goals, and have a stronger understanding that we have everything in this world available at our fingertips to live life on our own terms…you just need to dream it up, throw out all the assumptions of why you can’t, and then work on your passion each day.

Also, Emilia coached me to envision and create my objectives that was previously unknown to me.

Furthermore, she helped me in determining my short- and long-term goals, as well as in the creation of a successful action plan for working toward them.”

“I really enjoyed hearing the information that works best for me, when was going through the process. The most helpful was providing the examples of what I may have done and to focus on going forwards.

I was intrigued that Emilia could show me a process that would apply to all decisions I would make going forwards and how to do this in the best way. 

During the coaching session, which only took an hour, I sometimes found it difficult to reflect on the process, but Emilia helped make it easier to understand by using specific guidance to make her point and ensure we reached the desired outcome. 
It was really insightful to learn about myself and increase my awareness on how I think.

I will now try taking this forward as I now know how easy is to code own strategy to make great decisions in my life”

She was an active class representative with excellent leadership skills, and she was very motivated and inspirational in life.

Although she was a single mum, Emilia was very determined, and had managed her course schedules well with her life and work. 

Definately, Emilia had a clear set of goals in life, and I am proud to see her reach higher levels”

Emilia kept her focus on her goals and with steel-like determination ticked them off one-by-one. In order to inspire Emilia to complete her book, I invited her to use the rooms in my Art Centre in Central London, and I am so glad it worked!

Great to see it in print and look forward to more interesting works from Emilia in the future”
