“Working with Bianca is for me so incredible, because she doesn't only understand the life of a founder, but especially the life of a female founder. This combination of knowing the stressful environment that puts many of us into burn out, but also understanding the pressure of being a woman in this specific environment makes the difference. Bianca doesn't only have these experiences, she leverages them to support other founders. She utilizes her experiences and combines them with the expertise of body and mind work.”
— Kosima Kovar, CEO of Viora, 2x Forbes30u3
Success Outside. Survival Mode Inside.
For nearly a decade, I led two health tech startups as a young female CEO in the early rise of Europe’s tech scene—raising VC money, building high-performing teams, and growing fast.
From the outside, it looked like success.
From the inside, I was running on empty.
What most people didn’t see:
Co-founder conflicts that left emotional scars.
Disconnection from my intuition leading to misaligned decisions.
A body that was screaming for rest and me, constantly overriding.
I told myself there was no space to slow down. Only forward. Faster.
Until my body made the decision for me. In 2018, while building my second startup in New York, burnout hit—hard.
It wasn’t just exhaustion. It was a deep disconnection from myself.
That was my wake-up call. And the beginning of my real work.
The Insight That Changed Everything
If you don’t master your emotions, they will lead your decisions, your leadership, your long-term wellbeing – and eventually your life.
I had focused all my energy on business, strategy, and operations.
But not my own nervous system.
Not the emotional weight of carrying a company.
Not the trauma responses that got triggered under extreme pressure.
Behind the polished panels and pitch decks, I was fighting an inner storm—alone, as most founders and high-level leaders.
So I devoted myself to a deeper path:
Studying somatic therapy, trauma-informed leadership, emotional release, and systemic coaching
Reconnecting with my body, emotions, and inner truth
Learning how stress, trauma, and emotional suppression impact our performance, clarity, and health
And what I uncovered changed everything—not just for me, but for how I support others now.
The Real Success Starts Within
Building a business is not just about strategy.
It’s about your capacity to stay regulated in chaos.
To process what others suppress.
To lead, not from urgency, but from truth, clarity, and alignment.
This is the new paradigm of leadership.
And it’s what I now help others embody.
Today, I work with high-performing founders, CEOs, and visionary leaders to:
Understand and regulate their nervous system
Master their emotional world
Lead from deep alignment not survival
Through somatic intelligence, trauma-informed coaching, and emotional mastery, I help you access the clarity, resilience, and embodied power to lead in the way the future demands.
Because the next generation of leadership isn’t built on burnout.
It’s built on wholeness.
Helping Leaders Build Thriving Businesses Without Losing Themselves
Today, I guide founders, CEOs, and high-impact leaders through the inner work that no one talks about but everyone needs.
My Mission
To guide founders and leaders in mastering their emotions, navigating high-pressure environments, and building businesses that thrive—without sacrificing their well-being, authenticity, or joy.
My Vision
A world where leadership is no longer fueled by burnout, overwork, and emotional suppression—but by self-awareness, resilience, and deep alignment. Where entrepreneurs create and lead from a place of clarity, presence, and true inner power.
Because when your Being comes alive, your Doing thrives.
My Expertise
I bring a science-backed, trauma-informed approach to emotional mastery & high-performance leadership, combining deep coaching, somatics, and neuroscience, including:
Systemic & Transformational Coaching
Somatic Therapy rooted in Neo Emotional Release & Nervous System Regulation
FastReset® – Neuroscience for Emotional Healing

Family Constellation Work
This allows me to bridge the gap between leadership, emotional intelligence, and performance psychology—helping founders & leaders regulate stress, master emotions, and make better decisions under pressure.
