Leadership is lonely.

The higher you climb, the higher the stakes, and the fewer people you can truly trust to help you cut through the complexity.

I’ve sat with founders at €2M ARR and with boards of billion-dollar family enterprises.

Different contexts but reality is the same:

• Blind spots no one dares point out.
• Cultures drifting because clarity slipped.
• Teams looking to you for answers you’re still trying to form yourself.

My work is to hold up the mirror and walk leaders like yourself back into clarity.

Sometimes that looks like a silent retreat.

Sometimes it’s a boardroom reset.

Sometimes it’s a series of 1:1 conversations.

But it’s always about one thing:

Turning the inner game of leadership into outer results.

And if you’ve actually read this far, it probably means something here spoke to you.

That recognition (the moment you see yourself in these words) is usually where the real work begins.

I work with scale-stage founders & CEOs above €150K MRR who are willing to grow themselves as much as their companies.

If that’s you, send me a DM saying “CLARITY” or even “Nikolas, I actually read your about section” and let’s talk!

Marketing and operations for boatify, which involves a focus on the overall marketing strategy from social media to viral marketing. I also handled strategic partnerships, boat acquisition and managing support for the user base.

boatify builds a worldwide peer to peer boat community, where boat owners, boat experts, skippers, and other service providers can meet and book boats, moorages, services or entire boat adventures. Everybody can share a boat with boatify. Listing free boat capacities, private boat owners can turn their idle boats into cash. In addition to boats, users can list attached services e.g. as skipper and design individualised boat adventures. Community members can participate at these adventures or share knowledge and experiences. Furthermore, we regularly have free community cruises where our members can meet other members and use these events for networking and meeting like minded people.

Are you hitting a performance ceiling despite your best efforts? 

Struggling with mental fog during critical decisions? Finding your stress levels blocking your true potential?

If you're nodding right now, you're exactly where you need to be.

Hi, I'm Flo Hart.

Most know me as the bridge between science and meditation - helping high-performers achieve mental clarity and peak states when it matters most.

So far, I've guided dozens of CEOs and executives personally, with hundreds more transformed through my group sessions, all learning to overcome burnout while maintaining elite performance.

In my work with high achievers like you...

I've developed a practical approach that delivers measurable results: 
Enhanced focus
Emotional regulation,
and strategic clarity under pressure. 

My system combines ancient meditation practices with modern biofeedback technology to show you exactly when your brain & your physiology reaches optimal coherence.

Before pioneering this field...

I built a successful career in physics and tech entrepreneurship, giving me the unique ability to translate complex neuroscience into practical tools busy professionals can implement between meetings.

What I actually deliver:

• Data-driven feedback on your meditation progress
• Emotional regulation during stressful situations
• Sustainable high performance without burnout
• Mental clarity during high-stakes decisions
• Improved sleep and recovery patterns

I've spent 3,000+ hours in deep meditation practice.
I've coached dozens of CEOs one-on-one.
I've built a 28,000+ mindfulness community.
I've delivered transformative results for leaders battling burnout.

Simply put...

I combine ancient wisdom with technology to help you achieve mental coherence most professionals never experience. 
The result? 

Better decisions, stronger leadership, and sustainable high performance without sacrificing your wellbeing.

4 ways I can help you:

1. Coherence Coaching - 1-on-1 elite performance training with biofeedback technology
2. Custom Biofeedback Integration - One off Biofeedback consultation Session + Early access to my wearable tech
3. My Newsletter - Receive custom guided meditations and insights
4. My Free Content - Follow my journey on LinkedIn or join my Zen X community

Interested?

For more details on working together, I'm just a DM away.

Thanks for reading up until here. 

Remember:
Health is rhythm. 
Optimal performance is rhythm. 
❤️

There are two ways to live your life.
Most founders pick the hard one.

The ancient Vedic texts called life "Lila"  divine play.
You're either the character trapped in the game.
Or the player who knows they're playing.

Character View:
You're inside the game.
Everything is life or death.
Every mistake feels permanent.
Every decision carries the weight of your entire identity.
You take everything personally because you think you ARE the game.
The Buddhists call this attachment.
The result? Suffering. And inefficiency.

Player View:
You're playing the game.
Same challenges, completely different perspective.

→ Play fully, but don't cling to outcomes 
→ Each setback is just feedback, not failure 
→ Risk more because each attempt is an iteration 
→ Learn faster because nothing is final

Alan Watts said: "The real you is the player, not the character. You are the awareness that can observe thoughts, feelings, sensations."

The Daoists called this Wu Wei - effortless action.
Not detached.
Just unattached.
Same life.

Two completely different nervous systems.
The character is stuck in fight or flight.
The player flows.

The character's physiology is fried.
The player stays coherent.
