Activate Your
Nervous System Potential
in 8 Weeks
A Breath Science and Body-Oriented Coaching program
This program helps fast-moving professionals build resilience and manage stress through science-based breathing and body awareness techniques.Unlike other programs that tell you to either push harder or work less, this program combines a variety of practical techniques with in-depth physiological understanding—so you can finally access your nervous system's fullest potential.
Does this sound like you?
↪️ Do you project a successful exterior while privately battling energy crashes, anxiety, and depleted focus—knowing there must be a better way to work?
↪️ Are you afraid that taking care of yourself means falling behind?
↪️ Are you frustrated by knowing exactly what you should do to manage your stress and energy, but still finding yourself reverting to old patterns the moment things get challenging?
Most highly ambitious professionals
have the same problem:They're working against,
rather than with their nervous system.
Those racing thoughts, that lack of focus, the dreaded afternoon energy crash...They're not just in your head. 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.In this program, you'll master a powerful trinity:• Functional Breathing
• Nervous System Regulation
• Embodied Self-AwarenessNo 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 those wellness 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 know that feeling—racing thoughts during a big presentation, scattered focus when you need it most, energy crashes right before crucial meetings. It's not your fault. Your nervous system is simply doing what it knows.But here's the good news: you can learn to work with it, not against it.Together, we'll build your personal toolkit of science-backed breathing and body-based techniques. No complex protocols, just practical tools you can use anywhere, anytime. Think of it as becoming the CEO of your internal state—calm, focused, and in control.
↪️ Emotions become information
Stress and anxiety aren't going anywhere—and we wouldn't want them to either! They're valuable signals from our brain and body.But what if you could transform them from your biggest obstacles into your secret weapons? That's exactly what we'll do.You'll discover how to channel your body's natural stress response into enhanced performance, razor-sharp focus, and better decision-making.No more fighting against your physiology or pushing through until you crash. Instead, you'll learn the rhythm of peak performance—when to push forward and when to strategically recover. It's about working smarter, not harder, with your body's natural cycles.
↪️ Easily shift gears, up and down
You don't have to choose between crushing it at work and being present in your personal life. Through targeted nervous system techniques, you'll develop the ability to shift gears when you need to. Both up and down, depending on what the situation requires.Imagine leaving work at work, sleeping deeply through the night, and showing up fully for the people who matter most. Success shouldn't come at the cost of your relationships or wellbeing—and with the right tools, it won't have to.

Roadmap
Phase 1:
Exploring
• Establish clear baselines of your current breathing patterns and stress responses through science-based breath assessments and tracking tools.• Learn the four principles of optimal breathing to transform your everyday breath patterns.• Determine your ideal breathing frequency and implement a coherent breathing protocol designed to balance your nervous system and improve Heart Rate Variability.• Explore the fascinating connection between breath, stress, and your autonomic nervous system, using frameworks like Polyvagal Theory and Window of Tolerance to understand your different states.• Optimize your sleep patterns for maximum recovery.
Phase 2:
Experimenting
• Map your stress responses and triggers through guided journaling and awareness exercises.• Use the Presence PIE framework to explore your sensory systems, and understand how safety plays a crucial role in nervous system regulation.• Discover powerful tools for deep relaxation and vagal tone enhancement.• Experiment with your body's built-in regulation mechanisms— breath, voice, movement, vision, social connection.• Develop a personalized toolkit using the If [THIS], then [TOOL] framework, ensuring you have practical solutions for any situation (without needing to step away.)
Phase 3:
Embedding
• Enhance your sensory awareness through specialized techniques, building on your foundation of breathing protocols and in-built regulation tools• Use mental rehearsal or visualization to deeply process your triggered states, as well as embed your optimal states into your nervous system.• Build stress resilience through scientific protocols like CO2 tolerance training and nasal breathing during exercise.• Explore the powerful combination of breathwork, emotional awareness, and journaling.
Phase 4:
Fine-tuning
• Fine-tune your practice in a final follow-up session, to ensure you're confidently applying these tools to create lasting change in your daily life.

👋 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 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 believed this is what I want to be doing with my life, 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.
