Tap Into Your
Nervous System Potential
A Breath Science and Body-Oriented
Coaching program
This program helps fast-moving professionals upgrade their internal operating system—so they can respond to pressure with clarity, recover faster, sleep deeper, and lead from a grounded, focused state.Yes, it’s about breathwork. But it’s also about how you show up in your relationships, your work, and your life.This work changes how you see yourself. It helps you stop managing stress and start mastering your state. It’s not just about breath—it’s about reclaiming calm, clarity, and confidence in the way you move through life.Unlike other programs that tell you to either push harder or work less, this program integrates practical tools with deep physiological understanding—so you can finally access your nervous system's full potential and become the person you know you're capable of being.
Does this sound like you?
↪️ You project a successful exterior while privately battling energy crashes, anxiety, and depleted focus—knowing there must be a better way to work.
↪️ You’re afraid that taking care of yourself means falling behind—or losing your edge.
↪️ You know what you should do to manage your stress and energy, but still find yourself reverting to old patterns the moment things get challenging.
Most highly ambitious professionals
have the same problem:They're working against,
not with, their nervous system.
That afternoon crash? The 3 AM spirals? That moment in the meeting where your brain blanks out?There's nothing wrong with you. They're physical experiences rooted in your nervous system.Think about it:Your nervous system shapes every moment of your day—from how you handle that stressful meeting to whether you can actually relax when you finally sit down at night.But we were never taught how to effectively manage our nervous system.The result? You're stuck using mind-over-matter approaches that barely scratch the surface, while your body's natural resilience remains locked away.Now imagine something different:What if you could tap into your nervous system's innate activation and relaxation mechanisms?What if you could use your breath to shift from stressed to focused, or wired to calm, almost on command?This isn't some far-fetched promise.It's simple biology.Your body holds sophisticated self-regulation tools that have evolved over millennia.These aren't mystical secrets. This has nothing to do with spirituality. These are practical, proven methods backed by cutting-edge modern research.
No more band-aid solutions (supplements!) or temporary fixes without understanding the effect on your nervous system (ice baths!).Just you, investing the time and energy to reconnect with your body's innate intelligence.
3 reasons why most professionals
feel so overwhelmed and disconnected
1️⃣ Lack of understanding of, and connection, to the nervous system
Life's got you moving so fast, you've lost touch with your body's natural signals. Like having a high performance car but only using the gas pedal, you're missing out on the hardwired tools your nervous system holds—and the Calm and Headspace apps alone aren't bridging the gap.
2️⃣ Dysfunctional breathing patterns and lack of movement
Between your desk-bound lifestyle and chronic stress, your breathing's gone rogue. You're operating on shallow breaths and tension patterns that keep you wired but tired. The worst part is that this invisible pattern is affecting everything from your focus to your sleep quality.
3️⃣ Lack of nervous system regulation tools, always reaching for external “solutions”
When stress hits, you find yourself reaching for the usual suspects—another coffee, an extra glass of wine, or just one more scroll through social media. You know there's a better way to feel energized and calm, but finding that path feels just out of reach.
When you finally learn how to tap into your
Full Nervous System Potential
↪️ Calm, focused and in control
You stop white-knuckling through the day. You feel your breath slow before you even notice the stress. You speak more clearly, listen more deeply, and walk into high-pressure moments with a steadiness that surprises even you.You’re not pushing through anymore—you’re choosing how to respond.
↪️ Emotions become information, not obstacles
You’re no longer afraid of intensity. Frustration, doubt, even fear—they all carry information now. Instead of shutting down or spinning out, you listen. You regulate. You re-center.This is how grounded performance works:It doesn’t bypass stress—it transforms it.
↪️ Easily shift gears, up and down
Whether you're ramping up for a meeting or winding down for bed, you can switch states with intention. No supplements. No hacks. Just you, tuned into your system and knowing what’s needed.Your energy is steadier. Your boundaries are clearer. Your presence is deeper.
↪️ You become the kind of person who can hold discomfort and tension
You sit with uncertainty without rushing to fix it. You move through complexity without fragmenting. You lead yourself through pressure without collapsing or numbing out.This is more than stress management.It’s an identity shift—from reactive and scattered to regulated and self-trusting.
The
The Nervous System Potential
Framework
In this coaching program, we focus on three core pillars:
Pillar 1: Foundational Breathing
Master the basics your body was built for.Your breath is the foundation of your nervous system, your energy, and your focus. Yet most people are over-breathing without even realizing it—mouth breathing, shallow chest breathing, fast, erratic rhythms that quietly tax your system.This pillar is about retraining your breath as your most reliable tool for stability and resilience.We don’t jump into advanced techniques. We rebuild from the ground up—restoring natural, functional breathing so your body feels safe, steady, and supported. Breath becomes your anchor.You'll learn:• Breath awareness training
• Functional breathing fundamentals (nasal, gentle, slow, expansive)
• Resonance breathing to support HRV and nervous system balanceHow life changes:• Deeper, more restorative sleep
• A steadier stream of energy and focus throughout your day
• Increased capacity to self-regulate in real timeThis isn’t about doing more. It’s about building the foundation everything else depends on.
Pillar 2: Nervous System Regulation
This is about learning to understand, track, and intentionally shift your internal state—so you’re no longer reactive, scattered, or stuck.Most people spend their days bouncing between overwhelm and shutdown. With the right tools and awareness, you can start shifting from reactive to responsive. From anxious to focused. From wired to calm.You'll learn:Step 1: State observation – Build awareness without judgmentStep 2: State recognition – Learn your nervous system’s unique patterns using frameworks like Polyvagal Theory and Window of ToleranceStep 3: State shifting – Use breath, movement, vision, sound, and environment to shift gears on commandHow life changes:• Greater emotional resilience and agility• Faster recovery from stress or overwhelm• The ability to hold intensity without collapse, numbing, or panicWhen you can shift your state, you can shift your life.
Pillar 3: Embodied Self-Awareness
Feel more. Think less.Most people live in “conceptual self-awareness”—they can talk about what they feel, but they’re not actually feeling it. They analyze emotions instead of sensing them. This pillar is about reconnecting to your body as a source of clarity, guidance, and truth.Embodied awareness gives you access to your intuition, your nervous system’s early warning signals, and your natural capacity to regulate. It teaches you how to notice subtle shifts, hold discomfort without panic, and make decisions that are grounded, not reactive.What you’ll develop:• Interoception and proprioception—feeling from the inside out• The ability to track sensation, emotion, and internal signals• Emotional presence without judgment or the need to fixHow life changes:• Greater confidence in your intuition and instincts• Deeper presence in work and relationships• More ease sitting with discomfort, uncertainty, or complexityYou can’t think your way into clarity. You have to feel your way there.

Here's how we'll work together
1. Coaching / Check-In Sessions
The sessions are a blend of practice and education—all tailored to your needs and progress.Depending on the program, the sessions can be quick and efficient check-ins, or longer and more in-depth coaching sessions.
2. Personal Digital Dashboard
Everything we cover is documented in your personal digital dashboard, making it easy to revisit and refresh your practice, longer after our work together.
3. Accountability & Support
The time between sessions is as important as the sessions themselves.It's where you learn, play, apply and practice.During this time, you have access to me for all questions, observations, comments, and concerns.
4. Bonus Personalized Exercises
None of this work is one-size-fits-all.Based on your feedback and progress, I create additional personalized visualizations and breathing exercises shared with you in-between our live sessions.P.S. the more you share with me, the more I can help!
👋 Hey, I'm Charlotte.
My journey began in the (sounds-more-glamorous-than-it-is) world of global advertising, where I spent 13 years sprinting between Brussels, New York, Singapore, and London.Like many, I was living entirely in my head—constantly thinking, planning, and worrying. Despite outward success, I felt disconnected, anxious, and unable to consistently rely on myself.I first discovered breathwork during a freediving course. From the first session, I was hooked by the calming effect on the volume and intensity of my thoughts. I vividly remember walking home that day and thinking: “Really?? All this time, something so simple?!”That experience showed me something profound:The solution to better performance wasn't in my mind, but in my body.A (some might say slightly obsessive) period of breath science, nervous system regulation and neuroscience study followed.I worked with coaches, signed up for courses, overloaded my Kindle with books. The more I learned and explored, the more I realized this is what I want to spend all my time and energy on, and I left my full-time job.Today, from my base in sunny Lisbon, I help people discover their body's hidden nervous system features through the Nervous System Potential Coaching Program, and my newsletter Stretch.Here's why I'm so obsessed with this work:I now believe that most of us are operating our incredible human systems at default settings, unaware of the extraordinary capabilities within.Every experience we have—from creative breakthroughs to stress responses—happens through our nervous system. Yet most of us know more about our smartphone settings than this incredible biological machinery we're walking around with.When you learn to operate your system intentionally, everything shifts—emotions become information rather than overwhelming forces, stress transforms into a manageable response, and creativity flows naturally.We have all the tools we need built right into our bodies—we just need to learn how to use them.
