Meet Our Founder
Zen Leader Collective was founded by Corina Holzapfel, a seasoned leadership coach, mindfulness practitioner, and passionate advocate for heart-centered, authentic leadership. Drawing from her rich background in naturopathy, business psychology, and positive psychology, Corina combines a holistic and evidence-based approach to leadership transformation.
Having personally faced and overcome the challenges of burnout, Corina understands the demands leaders face in balancing professional success with personal well-being. Her journey has fueled a deep commitment to helping leaders cultivate resilience, rediscover their authentic selves, and thrive with balance and clarity in every aspect of life.
Drawing on her diverse expertise, Corina integrates the principles of psychology with the healing practices of naturopathy, blending mindfulness meditation, emotional intelligence, and nervous system regulation with somatic tools, Qigong, and yoga. Her unique approach combines top-down strategies—such as cultivating self-awareness, intentional decision-making, and uprooting limiting beliefs—with bottom-up techniques that address the body and emotions, creating sustainable and meaningful transformation.
Inspired by her profound connection to nature, Corina offers a unique approach that harmonizes science with soul and strategy with serenity.
