With a captivating profile on Instagram (@ihanmary.coach), Ihanmary Damasceno dos Santos, originally from Feira de Santana, Bahia, and currently residing in Salvador, is embarking on a unique journey as a coach, model, influencer, and actress. Ihanmary discovered RANK INFLUENCER through Madri Influencer, and her experience with the company has been incredibly enriching, providing her with an innovative platform to share her story with the world. Ihanmary’s essence is that of a curious person, always seeking a better version of herself to contribute to the world and the universe.
Her journey began nine years ago when she started a profound journey of conscious self-discovery, exploring her body, sensuality, and emotions. Over time, Ihanmary has immersed herself in diverse experiences, from taking care of her body with physical exercise and healthy eating to exploring her sensuality through a personal boudoir photoshoot. Additionally, she has dedicated herself to dance (Fitdance) to enhance her body expression and has gone trekking in Chapada Diamantina to connect with herself and nature.
During the 2020 pandemic, she intensified her readings on human behavior and self-awareness, culminating in the discovery and passion for the coaching profession after taking the Ontological Coaching course at Território Appana. Her biggest challenge in entering the coaching profession was balancing limited time due to her job as a civil servant at TRT. However, even in the face of this challenge, she decided to start her career and gradually provide coaching sessions. Ihanmary’s goal is ambitious: to become a globally recognized model, influencer, and actress.
Besides being passionate about these careers, she sees them as a unique opportunity to bring the coaching profession and personal transformations to the world. Ambitious, her aim is to inspire people to seek self-awareness and awaken the internal power we all possess. Ihanmary aims to contribute to the universe by bringing her power, skills, and talents to expand lives around the world.
One funny story that marked her journey was her entry into this universe by meeting someone on Instagram, enrolling in courses taught by that person, and later discovering that she had taken an Ontological Coaching course, which inspired her to pursue this path. With a background in Business Administration and various courses to expand her internal capital, including Mindfulness, Tantric Therapy, Modeling, Influencing, and Acting, Ihanmary is a multifaceted professional.
Interestingly, Ihanmary highlights her intense energy, the result of a deep internal dive that freed her from constraints and made her realize the strength of vulnerability. The uniqueness of her work lies in the consciousness expansion she promotes, helping people understand themselves and explore their potential. Her strengths include determination, focus, discipline, and optimism, while her current major limitation is the lack of financial resources to fully invest in her career. When asked about her value, Ihanmary responds that it is priceless. Her future ambitions include impacting millions of people worldwide, especially women, through her experiences and professions.
As a talent hunter, Ihanmary seeks to associate with authentic, confident, committed individuals who value mental and physical health and are disruptive. She describes her management style as inspiring, aiming to inspire people through her example. Facing a challenge at work, Ihanmary demonstrated resilience by handling a situation where she was rudely reprimanded by someone hierarchically superior. She listened attentively, withdrew, and the next day received a public apology.
For her, the most important aspect of her work is expanding people’s consciousness, and her most significant achievements so far are related to transforming lives through coaching. Ihanmary sees herself as a determined, focused, autonomous, resilient, and always optimistic person. Regarding the time needed to significantly contribute to her market, she believes it would be a matter of months after transitioning careers. Her partners see her as an outstanding, determined, and positive person. Although she does not have partners at the moment, she seeks to associate with people who value authenticity, trust, and commitment. Ihanmary aims to impact millions of people worldwide, providing lectures, courses, books, and a movie about her story. In her leisure activities, she enjoys nature, the sea, cinema, theater, dance, and gatherings with family and friends.
