Performing on the Outside, Struggling on the Inside?

 

You’ve been leading, pushing, performing for years. But when was the last time you checked in – with you?

 

“82% of Senior Leaders Say They’ve Experienced Burnout-Level Exhaustion.”

What is your Body Trying to Tell You?

Exhaustion. Burnout. Emotional reactivity. Recurring conflicts. Anxiety.
They’re not the problem. They’re signals.

Your body speaks in symptoms when your mind isn’t listening.

But…

  • You can’t think your way out of stress.

  • You can’t strategize your way through burnout.

  • You can’t lead effectively when your body is carrying years of unprocessed emotions, suppressed needs, and unresolved patterns.

If you’ve tried mindset work, productivity hacks, or even therapy—but still feel stuck—it’s not because you’re not trying hard enough.
Real change doesn’t happen in your mind alone. You need to go deeper to resolve the emotional patterns and unconscious cycles that keep you stuck.

 This Is Where I Come In

 
 

As a 2x VC-backed founder, I know firsthand the emotional, mental, and psychological toll leadership can take. I’ve built companies. Scaled teams. Raised millions.

And I kept pushing—until burnout forced me to stop and face what was happening beneath the surface. That became my turning point.

I’ve since spent years training with leading experts in systemic coaching, somatic therapy, trauma healing, neurobiology, and emotional release work.

Today, I help founders and leaders like you build businesses and careers that thrive—without burning you out in the process.

Not through fixing, forcing, or hustling harder.
But by guiding you beyond the surface—into your alignment, truth, and authenticity.

Bianca is an invaluable support, especially during challenging times. She has such an empathetic, warm nature, and combined with her strategic expertise, she helps me find clarity and make the right decisions. Working with her is not only professional but also personally enriching.

  • — Kosima Kovar, CEO of Viora, 2x Forbes30u3

    “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. Without her I wouldn't be as healthy, confident, happy and motivated as I am right now.

The Shifts You Might Experience

These are real shifts founders, leaders, and CEOs I’ve guided have experienced:

Emotional Mastery

Navigate stress with greater calm and clarity. Reduce emotional reactivity, respond to triggers with grounded awareness, and feel more in control of your inner state.

Clearer Communication & Boundaries

Move beyond people-pleasing and conflict avoidance. Set strong boundaries, communicate your needs confidently, and make decisions from alignment, not reactivity.

Deeper Self-Connection

Reconnect with yourself, understand your needs and emotions more clearly, and make choices that genuinely support your well-being.

Nervous System & Emotional Awareness

Understand how your nervous system and emotions shape your reactions. This fosters self-compassion and enhances leadership by better understanding others.

Regained Energy & Aliveness

Release long-held emotional tension and burnout patterns, leading to more energy, vibrancy, and a renewed sense of purpose.

What My Coaching Is Not

Just Talk

This isn’t coaching as you might picture it. We go beyond words, working directly with your emotions, nervous system, and the deeper layers of your experience.

A Quick Fix

I don’t offer band-aid solutions. This work is for those ready to look within, face what’s been avoided, and commit to real change – work that takes time, courage, and presence.

Performance-Driven

I’m not here to help you do more—I’m here to help you be more. Growth here comes from within. Improved performance is the result of inner alignment, not the goal itself.

What My Coaching Is

Rooted in Self-Discovery

My coaching helps you uncover and understand the patterns, beliefs, and emotions that have shaped your life, giving you the tools to lead with clarity and authenticity.

Embodied

We don’t just talk about change—we integrate it through your body, nervous system, and felt experiences to create real, sustainable transformation.

Radically Unshaming

I create a space where nothing is too much and everything is welcome. There’s no fixing, no judgment—just deep presence, acceptance, and the freedom to fully be yourself.

A Partnership

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s a deeply personalized process where I walk alongside you, guiding and supporting you as you navigate your inner world.

It’s time to pause. To feel. To reconnect.

Let’s go beyond the surface and create the space you’ve been needing.

FAQs

  • If you’re after a quick fix, one session might feel tempting. But the kind of growth we’re working toward requires depth and consistency. Imagine trying to learn a new language in one lesson, the real fluency will only come with practice and time. It’s the same for working with our body, emotions and mind. They need time to open, soften and heal.

    By giving yourself space to work through the layers of emotions, patterns, and nervous system responses, you’ll set yourself up for breakthroughs that truly last.

  • We start with a 12-week minimum commitment of weekly coaching sessions. This gives your nervous system the time it needs to adjust, process, and grow. 

    Many of the people I work  with find the work so valuable that they continue in a looser, ongoing schedule as they evolve.

  • Absolutely! I offer coaching in both English and German (fluent in both), so you can choose the language that feels most natural for you.

  • My Coaching sessions are held remotely via video call, so we can stay flexible and consistent no matter where work takes us.

    For certain sessions, like an emotional release session, we can arrange in-person coaching in Vienna or Lisbon if that feels right for you.

    I also host private healing retreats in Portugal and workshops internationally if you’re looking for an immersive experience. You can check those out here: [Link to events section].

  • My coaching approach combines formal training in several proven modalities with years of hands-on leadership experience as a CEO of high-growth startups. 

    I know firsthand the challenges of leading under pressure, managing teams, and navigating burnout, which allows me to step into your shoes and understand the challenges that need untangling. 

    I am formally trained in: 

    • Systemic Coaching and Transformational Coaching for Executives

    • Neo Emotional Release®

    • FastReset® – Neuroscience for Emotional Healing

    • Nonviolent Communication

    • Systemic Constellation

    • Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) & Meditation

    • Dynamic Facilitation

  • Traditional executive coaching often sticks to strategy, productivity, and performance: the “what” of leadership. My approach dives into the “why” and the “how.”

    We’ll go deeper than surface-level tactics by integrating somatic and trauma-informed practices that address the emotional and physiological aspects of leadership. This means we’re not just tweaking, we’re transforming the patterns, beliefs, and nervous system responses that shape how you show up.

  • I completely understand that concern. The idea of diving into deep emotional work can feel scary —especially when you’re already carrying so much. Let me reassure you. This coaching will not force you to confront feelings you’re not ready for or push you into uncomfortable territory for the sake of ‘feeling something’. 

    This work is paced entirely by you. We’ll create a safe, steady space where you can explore what feels manageable, one step at a time. If we do get to deeper emotions, it will be because you feel ready to go there, not because you’re being pushed.

    So, don’t worry, your emotions are not Pandora’s Box. It’s more like opening a window to let some fresh air in.

  • Usually I meet with my clients on a weekly session of 60 minutes, giving us plenty of time to ease into emotion and do the deeper work. Ocassionally and based on your process, a specific session might require up to 120 minutes. We’ll discuss that upfront and it will be at no extra charge for you. Your process is my highest priority.

    Between sessions, I’ll share practical tools and exercises to keep the momentum going. The goal is to make progress both in and outside our sessions, one step at a time.

  • I transitioned to leadership coaching because I’ve lived the pressure, the weight, and the isolation that comes with being a leader. As a high-growth startup CEO for nearly a decade, I experienced the highs of success but also the toll it takes: the burnout, the self-doubt, and the constant need to prove yourself. I know what it feels like to carry so much responsibility while quietly wondering if you’re losing yourself in the process.

    That’s why I coach. I want to give leaders the kind of support I wish I had. To show how deeply enriching it can be to discover the deeper layers of your being. The patterns, nervous system responses, and emotional blocks that shape how we lead, connect and live.
