About Us

Hi, I'm Lea Wernli. I'm a coach and mentor. I may not see well, but I'm a great listener. After a profound insight into our spiritual nature, I fell in love with life again. I guide my coaching clients with love (sometimes tough love and a few good swear words) toward their true nature. My favorite addictions are coffee and good stories. In the "Lighter Life Lounge," I share the playbook for an awesome life. For me, it's about experiencing everything deeply.
