Executive Coaching for Founders & CEOs
Executive coaching for founders and CEOs who know the strategy but need to strengthen the nervous system behind it
LEADERSHIP FROM INSIDE OUT
I work with founders and CEOs navigating the internal challenges of building and scaling companies. The decisions that keep you up at night. The tension between moving fast and staying grounded. The gap between the leader your company needs and the patterns your nervous system defaults to under pressure.
Most leadership development focuses on frameworks and strategy. I focus on what makes those frameworks impossible to execute: a dysregulated nervous system.
Before founding Embodiwise, I spent years in high-growth tech companies including Uber, Booking.com, and Roku. I know what it feels like to operate in hypergrowth environments where the stakes are high and the pace is relentless.
I help leaders build the internal capacity to match their external ambitions.
HOW WE work together
The work we do together is executive coaching grounded in nervous system science.
We address the challenges you face as a leader by working with how your body holds and processes stress, makes decisions under pressure, and regulates in high-stakes environments.
This is not therapy. This is performance work for leaders who understand that sustainable high performance requires more than willpower and strategy.
Sessions integrate Somatic Experiencing, a body-based approach to nervous system regulation, with executive coaching frameworks. We work with what is happening in your body in real time, not just what you think about what is happening.
The outcome is not just insight. It is increased capacity to lead through complexity without burning out yourself or your team.
