Fabio Brunazzi - Psychologist and Professional Yacht Captain is the creator of psychologyofsailing.com

Psychology of sailing is an idea born from fifteen years of sailing and living aboard sailboats and from sitting with people while we unpack challenges and opportunities. It has been a long voyage in which I have been learning to bridge the gap between Self and Reality.

 

I was born in Italy and graduate and licensed as an Organizational Psychologist, and trained in Group Dynamics. I lived convinced I wanted to be a trainer and consultant, until one day I left and changed my life from the insides out. I spent the next years living on the water and in different countries.

Gradually I learned that calm is not the absence of storms, but the presence of a centre that has already survived them;  that shortcuts are seductive until the mast comes down, and that the most meaningful thing in life are the ones we reach after we stop pretending we know exactly where we are going.

Today I divide my time between the helm and the consulting room.

I work with those who have chosen (or been chosen by) a life of movement:  expats, nomads, founders, sailors, and anyone who feels the quiet ache of living between worlds.

My promise is simple:  I will accompany you with the same honesty the sea once demanded of me.

No illusions, no hurry, only the patient craft of bringing who you are and where you are into the same calm water.

If that feels like the passage you are ready to begin, I am here for you.
