Can't shut off? Always on edge?

If you're highly sensitive, HSP, ADHD, or neurodiverse - your nervous system operates differently. 

You naturally pick up more. Process deeper. Feel misalignment faster.

When you override your wiring? Your body shuts you down.

I help sensitive and neurodiverse founders regulate their nervous systems so they can build businesses that work WITH their wiring, not against it.

My Story

Three years ago, I moved from Holland to the Portuguese mountains to escape burnout.

It didn't work.

Working 8am-10pm. Phone at dinner. Snapping at my kids - I remained stuck in survival mode.

My chest was tight. Mind racing. I'd lost the ability to feel what my body was saying.

That wake-up call changed everything.

I stopped trying to push through my dysregulation and instead started treating through somatic work and regulation.

Now I help other sensitive and neurodiverse founders do the same.

So if this is you...

- Can't shut off - mind races, body won't rest
- Always on edge - chest tight, revenue dips spiral you
- Body refuses to fake it 
- You feel everything 3x harder
- Decide from panic, not strategy
- Rest feels dangerous
- Irritable with people you love

Better boundaries alone won;t solve your problme. You need nervous system regulation.

How I Work
→ Map your nervous system patterns
→ Rebuild regulation capacity
→ Create rhythms that honour your wiring
→ Lead from presence, not performance

What makes this different is that most business coaching ignores the body. Most nervous system work doesn't understand business. 

Almost nothing addresses how sensitive and neurodiverse systems work differently.

I bridge all three.

I bring nervous system science (Polyvagal Theory) and body-based practices (Somatic Experiencing) into entrepreneurship for founders whose systems operate differently.

Your system picks up everything. Processes everything. Feels everything.
You dysregulate faster - and pay a higher price.

The popular "push through" advice? breaks you.

When you work WITH your wiring? Everything changes.

The real breakthrough was learning to feel what was happening inside - and lead from there.

Philip Smith 🎓

I work with startup founders on one thing that matters more than ideas: execution.

I speak weekly with founders, CEOs, and investors about what it really takes to build, fund, and scale early-stage companies — from MVP to first revenue.

No theory.
No recycled Twitter threads.
Just real lessons from people in the trenches.

I think and operate like a GTM engineer — designing repeatable systems across product, sales, and growth.

I’m currently:
• Business Development Manager @ Perfutil Technologies (AI app development)
• CMO @ Teemie
• Host of the Founders & Funding podcast (1,400+ subscribers)

Inside my content, I share:
• How founders actually raised their first round
• What didn’t work (and nearly killed the company)
• Practical GTM, MVP, and growth lessons
• Honest investor perspectives

If you’re a founder building pre-seed → Series A, you’ll find this useful.
