The result: Managers who model high-performance from well-being, not burnout. Managers who grow into the senior leaders your organisation needs.
Are you asking a lot from your Managers?
Your managers are navigating competing priorities, difficult conversations, constant change, and AI implementation, and these demands aren't slowing down.
Here's what most don't know: Only 5% of their thoughts, feelings, and actions are conscious. The other 95% run on autopilot, driven by their nervous system's stress responses. This is why brilliant managers become reactive under pressure and why traditional leadership training doesn't stick.
This 6-month science-backed intensive equips your managers to build sustainable resilience with:
Self-regulation tools using HeartMath and Polyvagal Theory for better decision-making under pressure
Adaptive communication skills for creating meaningful connections and navigating difficult conversations
Strategic thinking capacity to lead confidently with more influence and build stronger high-performing teams
The result: Managers who model high-performance from a place of well-being, not managers who burn out and leave. Managers who grow into the senior leaders your organization needs to future-proof your business.

What Your Managers Will Experience
You're not alone.
If you are a Manager trying to excel at BOTH the analytical work (metrics, processes, delivery) AND the emotional work (difficult conversations, psychological safety, stress management) this is a hard ask. Most tend to excel more at one rather than the other, doing both well is hard! Nobody actually teaches us how. School and Higher Education focuses on the left brain logical activities, not the less tangible right brain emotional, creative competencies.
We built a 6 months program specifically for you to learn to keep access to your clarity in busy times to make good decisions, and connect meaningfully with your teams despite the high demands on your time and energy. You’ll create new long lasting habits based on science for self-care, learn adaptive communication and level up your confidence to have more impact and progress in your career. What you’ll get:

Why This Program Works
Traditional leadership training teaches managers what to do. This program reveals how they actually operate—the 95% running beneath their awareness that shapes everything.
By combining nervous system science (HeartMath, Polyvagal Theory) with proven corporate methodologies (PCM®, EQ-i 2.0), we give managers practical tools to:
Recognize when their nervous system is hijacking their leadership
Self-regulate in real-time before difficult moments
Build the emotional resilience that makes sustained high performance possible
This isn't wellness theory. It's neuroscience applied to leadership—and it changes how managers show up permanently.

After this journey, your Managers will show up differently with their teams, which in our experiences, results in their teams approaching them differently. Most often deeper connections are built, more meaningful conversations are had, and more unseen issues comes up to make it faster to solve the “real“issues. At the end of this programs, your managers will be equipped with how to own and manage their own well-being, and how to guide their team to manage their own. They will also have unlocked new levers for higher perfomance in terms of strategic decision making, adaptive communion, and influence building. These are foundational soft skills needed to integrate an apply any future leadership training.

Meet Your Coach
Lauren Cartigny teaches managers the nervous system science that nobody taught them in business school.
After 11 years in tech sales at LinkedIn, Equinix, and Rackspace, burnout and a complete health crisis forced Lauren to understand what she'd been ignoring: only 5% of our thoughts, feelings, and actions are conscious. The other 95% run on autopilot, driven by our nervous system.
During her recovery, Lauren didn't just rest, she studied the science at the deepest level. This led her to train in methodologies that bridge therapeutic depth with corporate credibility: HeartMath for heart-brain coherence, Polyvagal Theory for nervous system regulation, Gabor Maté's Compassionate Inquiry® for trauma-informed practice, and corporate frameworks like Process Communication Model® and EQ-i 2.0 used by NASA, BMW, and Pixar.
Today, as an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), HeartMath Coach, and corporate trainer, Lauren works with managers across Europe, teaching them the self-regulation skills that prevent burnout, improve team dynamics, and drive sustainable high performance.
She founded The Self-Science Lab to teach others the science she wishes someone had taught her before she crashed.
