What if...
your strength didn't have to come from tension?
A grounded space for embodied leadership, emotional clarity, and meaningful change.
Presence. Power.
Possibility.
Where the body becomes the doorway to change.
In a culture that rewards speed and perfection, we forget the intelligence of the body—the place where clarity, confidence, and calm reside. This space invites a slower, deeper way of leading, learning, and living.
​
For those who want to:
• Lead and live from presence
• Rebuild trust in their body and instincts
• Find balance between drive and rest
• Expand emotional and somatic range
• Return to a grounded sense of self
Hi, I'm Amanda Duarte
Executive Coach • Somatic Trainer • Mentor Coach
As an Executive and Somatic Coach, I create grounded spaces for leaders, professionals, and coaches to reconnect with themselves — to find calm in the midst of pressure and clarity in the midst of change.
​
My path has taken me across five continents — from corporate to entrepreneurship and now into the heart of human development. These experiences shaped how I see leadership: not just as results and responsibilities, but as presence, integrity, and the ability to stay human through it all.
​
Rooted in somatic awareness, ontological coaching, and the science of safety and connection, my work bridges depth and practicality. Having coached people from more than twenty-five nationalities, I bring a global lens that honors both difference and common ground — the shared longing to feel at home in our bodies and our lives.
​
Alongside my private practice, I serve as faculty and somatic trainer for international coaching schools, guiding coaches to deepen their embodied presence and expand their impact. Whether I’m mentoring seasoned practitioners or supporting high-performing leaders, my invitation is the same: to move from performance to presence — and to lead, and live, with more breath, ease, and authenticity.
Ways to work with me
Transformation takes root in the body—where awareness turns into new ways of being.
Coaching for Leaders & Professionals
Reconnect with your presence and lead with calm, clarity, and confidence. Bridge mind and body to recognize the energy patterns shaping how you think, move, and take action. Rebalance what’s overused, awaken what’s been quiet, and lead in ways that feel grounded and true.
SOMATIC AWARENESS MENTORING FOR COACHES
Refine your practice and your presence.One-on-one or small-group mentoring to help coaches integrate the body more skillfully into their work. Together, we explore cases, deepen your somatic observation, and strengthen your ability to intervene with care, precision, and authenticity.
Workshops, Retreats & Speaking
Learning that’s embodied, engaging, and real. Talks and group experiences blend reflection, movement, and gentle release practices inspired by TRE®—helping participants regulate stress and reconnect with vitality. Each session invites a felt sense of ease, connection, and possibility.
