What Makes My Approach Different?

You might be wondering how wellness, confidence, and firewalking fit together?

The truth is, they’re completely connected.

After living with chronic illness and evading surgery twice, I learned the hard way that when we’re out of alignment with ourselves, our bodies will always tell us.

It starts as fatigue or small niggles - but if we ignore the whispers, eventually our body shouts.

For years, I powered through.

Until I couldn’t.

Now, I teach my clients a different way; one rooted in self-understanding, balance, and inner calm where they pause and create space to breathe, so that everything begins to shift.

My programs blend powerful coaching with holistic practices, and I regularly collaborate with incredible experts in yin yoga, breathwork, meditation, and spiritual practices to bring those tools directly into my spaces.

Collaboration is at the heart of what I do - not just behind the scenes, but for you too. I often bring clients into collaborative experiences as a way to boost their confidence, expand their network, and help them be seen in new and exciting ways. It’s about connection, community, and visibility so we all grow together, not alone.

From there, we build confidence from the inside out; helping you set boundaries, create clear goals, and finally believe in your own magic.

For entrepreneurs, I fuse this work with my 20+ years in sales and leadership, helping you show up authentically and attract clients in a way that feels natural, not forced.

Reigniting the Fire Within

I believe calm and stillness are powerful…

But when it’s time to rise, I bring the energy.

Through Firewalking Empowerment Experiences, I help individuals, teams, and entrepreneurs unleash their inner strength - breaking arrows with their throats, smashing boards with their bare hands, and walking across hot coals.

It’s not just symbolic - it’s transformational.

You’ll leave feeling unstoppable, lighter, and deeply connected to your own courage.

Meet Nerissa…

Diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis in 2008, I’ve lived the mind–body connection first-hand. My healing journey taught me that wellness isn’t a luxury - t’s the foundation for everything.

Before creating my own coaching business, I spent 20 years at Coca-Cola; 17 of those as a full-time coach and sales manager, leading and developing hundreds of people across the UK. Coaching wasn’t a side skill - it was my profession.

As a Projector in Human Design, my gift lies in guiding others to success; helping them see what they can’t yet see for themselves. I’m known for my patience, empathy, and laser-sharp insight. I help clients breathe again, see their potential clearly, and step forward with clarity and self-belief.

Above all, I’m passionate about helping people live fully with health, joy, and fire in their belly.
