Kia ora, I’m Cleo Shortland

Spiritual Performance Coach
Spiritual Performance Coach

I built Wā Performance Coaching from what I already knew. In my previous work, I developed compliance programmes in response to new laws and regulations. Today I build models to support individuals and teams to go after scary goals.

Leading teams of two to two hundred across different industries as a professional project manager taught me leadership, coaching, and to drive excellence without compromising integrity or wellbeing. Twenty years as a yoga practitioner gave me meditation and nervous system regulation as daily practice rather than theory, and that is the ground I stand on when I hold space for others.

As my family and responsibilities grew, my energy and my work changed, and the way I was operating had to change with them. I've had my own experiences with burnout and chronic stress, so I know what it feels like when things go too far. This work is how I've kept going big, making real progress, while addressing my own wellbeing and holding a pace that doesn't work against my health or goals.

Book a curiosity call and let’s build you up for your greatest work.

Mauri ora, Cleo
