FEATURED COACHES

United States | CA

I am a certified Human Potential Coach and a registered Yoga Teacher with 200 training hours. I am currently working on ICF (International Coaching Federation) ACC Certification.

First and foremost, I help my clients to become aware of who they are as human souls. I believe that only through awareness can humans reach the highest potential and become the best versions of themselves. Why is awakening important? Humans are creatures of habit in their daily thinking and doing things. We also adopt other peoples’ beliefs about ourselves. Once we become aware of our beliefs and constraints, we free ourselves up to become what we want to become in life. I help my clients clarify who they are and shed unnecessary beliefs. Better understanding leads to better control of our thinking and our emotions, which in turn leads to better life and health in general. I believe that every human has an enormous potential regardless of their economic status or genetic predisposition. By potential I mean health, personal development as a human and growth of the soul.

Coaching is my life purpose. I am on a mission to help as many people as I can to bring their health back, reach their true potential and become their best versions as humans.

Since I was young, I have had a lot of “ Whys”

Why did my father die when I was 12yrs old? Why do I want to drink this? Why does my body hurt this way,? And the list continued. I never adapted to the four walls or the box, society tried to put me in. As a mom, woman, employee, business owner, entrepreneur it never felt right for me. I would bump up against the boundaries and would pushed against the edges. Not to be a rebel or badass, but simply because none of it connected with me. I experienced this “disconnect” as physical and emotional symptoms in my body.
It became so uncomfortable that I felt numb as a person. Being a critical thinker, when I explored this void, I discovered that the causes of my symptoms were not the movements that I was or not doing or the foods I ate. I could see the disconnect between the things I was doing, the things that I thought I was supposed to do, instead of creating the life I wanted to live.

Today live on a 37’ sailboat, traveling with a man I love. In 2023, we began our travels leaving Connecticut, sailing to Bernuda and now in the West Indies. As a coach, I am committed to my own ongoing path of growth, change and development. As a coach, I get coached - its a mirror.

I am not here to tell people what to do or to come up with solutions for them. Instead, coaching is all about supporting, enabling and inspiring you and others, in ways that you can develop your own solutions and create your own personal pathways to your own and unique definition of success.

I am a Human Potential Coach, Reiki practitioner, writer, poet, steward of the earth, and a vessel for Love – with a deep passion for holistic health and serving others to optimize their well-being through various natural modalities. Following a massive life transition in 2019/2020, I found the Human Potential Academy (fka Human Potential Institute) coach training program, and enrolled as part of my own pursuit of healing. Over the course of the 9-month program, I discovered a wide array of methods for human optimization, and experienced the transformative power of applying these methods in my own life. One of the most powerful practices discovered during this time was meditation and the depths of the mind-body connection – how to connect with a state of presence and welcome ALL emotions as part of the human experience, without resistance – and how to use one’s own emotions as guides to uncover the roots of physical and mental states. Ultimately, this led me to discover my passion for helping others to recover their health and move from a state of surviving to thriving. I gained my certification as a Human Potential Coach in February 2022, and began the slow transition out of my career as a Petroleum Engineer and toward what I consider to be my life purpose (dharma).

As long as I can remember, I always had a heightened interest in physical fitness and nutrition, spurred on by my mother’s passion in this field. This approach to health and well-being was expanded through an introduction to Biohacking in 2016, where I began to discover the intricacies of human biology, along with additional truths about what it truly means to be healthy, extending well beyond diet and exercise. One of my deepest core values is that every human is a being of infinite potential and the author of their own health… healing is something that happens internally, as we align to our true nature. The giver of healing modalities simply acts as a conduit and a mirror for each individual to reconnect with their natural state, thereby clearing the channel for their bodies and minds to heal themselves. I believe the human mind, body, and spirit are not separate systems, but are intricately connected, and are constantly seeking a state of balance and harmony which allows us to maximize our efficiency and energy output, and connect with the truth of who we are, so we can bring our unique gifts into the world. However, we are often prevented from achieving this balance due to the internal and external blocks which arise due to inevitable life circumstances and conditioning encountered as we navigate the childhood and adolescent phases of our lives. The challenges, traumas, and tragedies that are ingrained in our developing minds as part of this human experience result in a separation from our true selves. This leads us to develop habits and patterns of thinking that limit our potential, and the psyche (subconscious and unconscious mind) begins to build internal protective systems to keep us safe and prevent us from experiencing similar tragedies or traumas in the future. The path to human thriving is that of reconnecting with the true self, observing our challenging life events and circumstances from a new lens which allows us to reframe those experiences and transmute our limitations into strengths. My belief is that the first step toward healing the world is by recovering our individual, natural state of vibrant health, which allows each person to show up in the world in a more positive and productive manner, thereby contributing to the collective healing of society and the planet.

As a Certified Human Potential Coach (CHPC), I specialize in presence-based coaching and embodiment, focused on emotional awareness, trauma processing and integration, shadow work, meditation, and mind-body awareness. I am also a student of functional nutrition and fitness, as well as biohacking techniques, which I have implemented into my own life, and I assist my clients in doing the same. I am a Level 2 Reiki practitioner, utilizing body and energy work to harmonize the mental body with the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies and facilitate the return to vibrant health. I am an ongoing student of the Gene Keys for deepening my understanding of shadow work, and also exploring massage therapy to deepen my practice of body work. In March 2024, I will be undergoing training to become a Breathwork facilitator, recognizing the potent power of breath for regulating the nervous system and releasing stored energy/emotion in the body. As a result of my transformative experience with Neurofeedback training in February 2022 at 40 Years of Zen, I discovered a passion for neuroscience and subconscious freedom techniques – how the human mind can be re-wired to transmute traumas into strengths, and bring about the lives we desire for ourselves.

I believe that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to individual well-being – each person’s stories and pathways to healing and thriving are unique. The many tools available for attaining well-being can be taught and made accessible to all, but the specific pathway for the healing journey of the individual is found within. The role of the coach and giver of holistic health modalities is simply to illuminate the areas that need attention and provide the safe space to dig deeper where our own minds often prevent us from seeing, and to help us align with our true nature, which we already are. It is my life’s work to continue to discover, practice, and embody the various techniques for holistic well-being that are available, and to create a method of sharing and teaching these techniques that make them accessible and affordable to the masses.

Some years ago, working in corporate environment and doing pretty well at work I've found myself on a bottom in personal life. That time I was doing international business development and traveled a lot. It was not uncommon that for weeks I'm out of home Mon-Fri returning just for a weekend feeling tired and lightly sick. The only I was doing on Sat-Sun is to recover to be able to jump onto another flight next Monday... My first son was born and while I was earning good money to family I was useless for them in everything else: not participating in family life, not spending quality time together and simply not helping. I've decided to stop it.

I've put big bet on biohacking, learning different nutrition plans and exercise regimens. It took me couple of years to find brilliant teachers and heal myself. I've lost excessive weight, optimised sleep and finally feeling energetic and ready for what life has to offer. And I've asked myself: what's next?

I've decided to explore more "esoteric" modalities and attended neurofeedback facility where I've spent a week meeting amazing people and wonderful teachers. But more importantly I've met my psychological traumas and I've got to know that psychological health is existing and it's a real thing. Healing this dark side of my health was the next frontier. After another couple of years I've found myself much better human being who've got a major upgrade. And I've asked again: what's next?

Well, honestly, "better" but still a long way to go for becoming a version of myself I desire to be. In the same time I was feeling strong urge of sharing that life changing knowledge what I've learned over the years. So, I've joined Human Potential Institute to learn coaching. Another solid reason was that in order to help others transforming themselves I need to become even better for myself first.

Nowadays in my 40-ties, I'm living the healthiest and happiest life full of experiences. I’m infinitely fascinated by possibilities and wisdom of human beings. And with all the humbleness I'm helping others to transform their lives serving as Human Potential Coach.

I have always been fascinated by unlocking human potential. As a junior athlete, I wanted to know how I could improve my rock climbing performance. I worked hard (not necessarily smart) and became British Junior Bouldering Champion and represented team GB in international competitions.

Since then I have expanded my knowledge to include many modalities; Biohacking, Sleep, Nutrition, Exercise, Psychology, Philosophy, Yoga & Mindfulness to name a few. I love utilizing the latest – and the most ancient – techniques to thrive and develop.

I studied Zoology at Sheffield University and worked in the climbing and construction industries for several years before doing a stint in a medical laboratory for the NHS. Life coaching was an idea in my head since graduation – however, it seemed unviable to me at the time as a fresh 21-year-old! My quest for meaning in life brought me back to coaching 6 years later and I’ve been loving it ever since!

I am interested in what makes people tick and how to unlock performance. This originally stems from my background as a competitive climber. Although I no longer compete I want to climb the hardest sport climbs possible, and I grab every possible trick and tactic along the way that might help me do so.

The good life for me is simple: Spend lots of time in nature and with loved ones, challenge myself regularly, be of service to others and live a healthy lifestyle. I am interested in the cutting-edge science of longevity and how my generation might make 180 years young!

Almost a decade ago, I left India and moved to Boston to start a Ph.D. program in anthropology at Harvard University. I thought I would undertake pathbreaking research, make lifelong friends, meet my soul mate, and have an amazing time during the program. The dream soon turned into my worst nightmare as my life-long health issues worsened drastically and new ones kept cropping up. I was left physically, mentally, and emotionally debilitated. I could barely get out of bed but could not sleep either, couldn’t handle anything I ate, was too depressed to socialize, too weak, tired, and cold all the time. I am happy to report that all of that is now in the past. Today, I feel like a completely different person, and I derive immense joy from helping people who are on their own journeys of healing and optimization.

I spent the last 7 years delving deep into many aspects of health and wellness in an effort to fix everything from my life-long depression that led to catatonia, anxiety and panic attacks, insomnia, chronic fatigue, chronic allergies, multiple food intolerances and sensitivities, severe GI issues, fibromyalgia, severe ADHD, thyroid issues, and several others! But all of that was only one half of the equation, the other, more important half was the utter loneliness, hopelessness, and misery that I was living through. I had all these issues since I was 4 years old, but they had reached a point where I could not let things continue as before.

In 2016, I took a year off and went on a healing journey. I spent time in India, US, Thailand, Peru, and Costa Rica working with several doctors, traditional and native healers, biohackers etc., and spent a hundred thousand dollars in the process. In the following years, I continued to try way too many modalities and approaches including, functional medicine, ayurveda and yoga, naturopathy, traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture, high-end stem cell therapies, several types of diets, fasts, cleanses & detoxes, workout regimens, hundreds of supplements, nootropics, peptides, several kinds of body work - chiropractors, massage therapists, physiotherapists, cranio-sacral, etc., all sorts of energy healing, PEMFs, infrared, light & sound, cerebral electrical stimulation, electrical muscle stimulation devices etc, that I could find. I understand that the blogosphere, vlogosphere, and podcastverse are full of posts about the next-great-hack, or technique-you-have-never-heard-of that will instantly solve all your problems. It can be very frustrating and tiring to figure out what works and what does not and what is suitable for you and worth your time and what isn’t.

Over the years, I have learnt everything I could about health and wellness: from physical, psychological, and spiritual perspectives. In the process, I became a certified yoga teacher and a certified breathwork instructor. I have taught yoga in India and Thailand, and breathwork at Harvard University among other places. I approach yoga as a wholistic system of health and wellness rather than the typical approach of treating it as something between aerobics and calisthenics. Pranayama is a traditional part of yoga that includes many types of breathing practices. I employ both the ancient techniques and the more modern scientific approaches to breathwork, including the very enjoyable musical journeys developed by Soma Breath.

Having gone through this long process of learning, practicing, and experimenting with a determination I did not know I had, I am now the healthiest and happiest I have ever been. I spent 4 times as much time on wellness as I have on my Ph.D. I say, only half-jokingly, that the Ph.D. is something I do on the side, when I find a break from my obsession with wellness. During the pandemic, as I was sharing what I learnt with friends and relatives, I realized that I would like to spend the rest of my life helping other people optimize their health and wellness so they can live deeply meaningful and happy lives! I signed up for the Human Potential Coach training to acquire coaching skills to supplement my experience and knowledge base. Acquiring knowledge and healing yourself is one thing but helping facilitate change in others requires a different set of skills. HPC provided a 35-week practical deep dive into this process.

I have lived in retreat centers, yoga schools, monasteries, and the amazon rainforest. I have done the twenty-thousand-dollar stem cell therapies and the fifteen-thousand-dollar meditation retreats where they hook up electrodes to monitor your brain waves. While they have all been helpful, I can assure you that greater, more sustained results come from working on foundational issues like: life purpose, mindset, relationships and connections, and everyday habits, and having clear frameworks, plans, and procedures to attain desired goals.

I can help you on your journey to becoming your best self, if you are willing to challenge old beliefs and patterns and be open to new ideas and approaches to all things health and wellness. While I continue to employ every, hack, trick, protocol, or supplement, when needed, I place more importance on securing the foundations for a rich and meaningful life before anything else. Today, when I mention all the above issues, I feel a sense of elation because it is a list of all the things that I have overcome rather than things I suffer from. You should not have to go through all the trouble and make the mistakes I made. In hindsight, I see that my hardships and mistakes were deeply enriching learning opportunities for me and I believe their present purpose is to serve you in your journey!

I work intensively with a small number of clients, so it gives me enough time to really devote myself to helping them. I have openings in May 2023 for new clients.

Welcome!

My name is Mai ElFouly, and I am passionate about empowering people to achieve 9D potential by unlocking their innate insights and wealth of knowledge.

My mission is to partner with you to unlock your human potential through intuitive, customized plans that aim to maximize growth on all levels.

I’ve had a diverse journey that helped position me toward my passion for service and coaching. I started working for a multinational energy company and have held many leadership positions and functions worldwide for the past two decades, ranging from technical roles to business operations, marketing, communications, human resources, and strategy. I’ve always enjoyed listening to and helping people solve their concerns in all of my roles. After experiencing the impact of having an MCC coach myself, I decided to take my passion for helping people reach their greatest potential more seriously by certifying as a Coach and studying to become a Board Certified Doctor of Natural Medicine and Ph.D.

I’m a whole-human coach with certifications in Human Potential, Executive, Life & Bussiness Coaching. I’m also Certified as an Advisory Board Chair™, pending ICF-PPC accreditation and BCC Board certifications.

Whole-person coaching is the essence of what I’ve trained in and offer. I avoid the approach that encourages compartmentalizing to succeed as I believe there’s only so much you can set aside, hide under the rug or ignore before what you’ve built on unstable foundations comes falling, forcing you to re-build with a different full perspective. I aim to work with you to minimize the falling tower moments, address the current foundations and build on firm ground.

Whether you’re launching a start-up, growing a company, motivating yourself and your team, or inspiring enhanced productivity at work or in a family unit, a whole-person approach in coaching is critical to achieving success and a lasting impact.

Combining test results that identify strengths and areas of focus with intuitive instinct and learned emotions through embodiment and this intersection is where I believe the true magic happens.

I incorporate mindfulness, self-awareness, and presencing practices within and outside of our sessions. In our session, you can connect with greater insight from the felt sense in the body and what emotions or messages are coming up to be addressed.

I’ve worked with a diverse population of clients, most recently solopreneurs and entrepreneurs launching their first start-up or ready to scale up, corporate executives looking to transform their organization, and senior leaders looking to transition careers. The clients I attract have a healthy balance using cerebral and intuitive decision-making pathways to reach their goals and are open and comfortable with change and transformation.

Depending on the type of engagement, whether one-on-one or team-focused, I provide packages that cater to each client’s needs.

I am committed to a holistic lifestyle, full of Human Potential! I am a father, husband, coach, outdoor enthusiast, and competitive obstacle course racer.

I have always been an athlete and an adventure sport lover. As such, I found it has taken a toll on my body. I have suffered from degenerative disc disease as well as osteoarthritis. With 1 herniated disc, 2 bulging discs and doctors suggesting I get shoulder and wrist surgery; I worried that I would have to give up the active lifestyle that filled me with so much purpose and joy.

The mental anguish of injuries was often more debilitating than the injuries themselves. I didn’t know who I was if I couldn’t be active. Through several alternative and holistic lifestyle changes, I discovered that not only was I able to heal my body, but I was able to begin to heal my inner child and develop a sense of myself that is beyond just my ability to be active.
I am passionate about helping others to do the same. Maybe you’ve suffered an injury and are looking for more efficient ways to heal. Maybe you used to be an athlete but have struggled to find purpose outside of your sport. Or maybe you’re looking to optimize your own human potential and live your best life.

Whatever your path, I am here to act as a resource and guide to being the best version of yourself. You should love yourself just the way you are but love yourself enough to not want to stay that way! You only have one body and one life, let me help you make the most of it!

Founder @ The Mindful Leader | Former CTO, VP Engineering Zalando, Silicon Valley Veteran | MIT TR100 Innovator | Executive Leadership Coach | Tech & Scientific Advisor

As a tech leader, the amount of pressure and information you are asked to absorb and manage can be overwhelming.

Many tech leaders experience an overload of new priorities, information, and deadlines. These reduce productivity and kick off a negative feedback loop: Leadership performance drops, cognitive abilities exhaust, more energy needs to be invested, only to achieve fewer outcomes.

It's evident that tech leaders without proper mind management will fail if not approached proactively at some point in their careers.

This is what happened to me about 10 years ago.

As a director of engineering at Yahoo! In Silicon Valley, I was known for my passion for tech, research, and innovation. I grew as a leader while managing various teams of up to 30 engineers. After some years of success, it became evident that my workload was just not sustainable, my mind wandered off, and my performance dropped. My mind was just unable to cope with the long term pressure.
But I knew I was more than capable of it.

As leaders, we learn how to lead and manage projects. But how do we organize our minds so we can stay calm, focused, and clear?

At first, this question led me to mindfulness and meditation practices. But as an engineer, this was just not measurable enough for me.

That's how I immersed myself really deep into mind-management practices.

I found proof of their effectiveness as I built the Zalando's Search, Personalization, and Research organization with up to 400 FTEs. Most importantly, it felt way less trouble than I had back then with a 30 people organization at Yahoo! The main driver for this had been the mind-management practices I implemented and refined over the years.

After studying various aspects of mind-management, neuroscience, biohacking, epigenetics, mindfulness, as well as neurofeedback for over 10 years, I help tech leaders to avoid failing in their careers because they have no science driven strategy to manage their minds.

My clients know they have the capability to perform in high-pressure tech environments and identified that their mind regularly gets in their way.

They know by just “meditating,” this won't be solved, and “slowing down” is also not an option.

That's why I have developed a data-driven program leveraging the latest science and technology to assist senior tech leaders in optimizing their mind and brain performance to thrive in the high-pressure environments

If you are a tech leader and you have identified aspects of your mind that are blocking you from your personal growth, I am looking forward to getting to know you!
