Engineering success, cultivating wellbeing

Hi, I'm Bruno. Like you, I've walked the challenging path of building and scaling a technology company while trying to maintain some semblance of balance in my life. I've celebrated exhilarating wins, weathered crushing setbacks, and eventually found myself in a hospital bed wondering how success could feel so empty. That wake-up call changed everything for me. It set me on a journey to discover that our greatest innovations emerge not from depleting ourselves, but from accessing a deeper wellbeing and clarity that most of us have never been taught to cultivate. Today, I'm passionate about sharing what I've learned at this intersection with other leaders who sense there must be a better way to create extraordinary impact without sacrificing their health, relationships, and joy. I believe your brilliance as a founder deserves the support of a coach who's navigated both the external and internal dimensions of leadership—and I'd be honoured to be that coach for you.

The turning point

As the founder and CEO of Catalyst Cloud, I built New Zealand's leading public cloud computing provider from the ground up, creating an innovative alternative to global giants like AWS and Azure. With over 20 years in the technology sector, I've led teams across multiple continents, raised capital, delivered complex projects, helped scale organisations, won multi-million dollar deals.

But my most profound learnings came when I discovered that external success alone doesn't create lasting fulfilment or sustainable performance. The prevailing model of sacrificing health, relationships, and inner peace in pursuit of business outcomes not only diminishes our quality of life—it actually limits our effectiveness as leaders and innovators. This made me recognise that something essential was missing in the conventional approach to leadership and success.

This realisation came to me the hard way. At a young age, I found myself in a hospital emergency room with a suspected heart attack. While I hadn't recognised the signs of stress, my body was sending clear signals that something had to change. After this scenario repeated itself several times, I stubbornly and reluctantly concluded that the conventional approach to achievement wasn't sustainable.

This health crisis became the catalyst for an inner journey that put me in contact with timeless principles of consciousness, health, and integrated living taught in eastern wisdom traditions. Through this exploration, I discovered powerful frameworks for achieving extraordinary results without compromising wellbeing—frameworks that have transformed not only my life but the lives of the leaders I now coach.

Bridging two worlds

What makes my approach unique is the seamless integration of these seemingly disparate domains:

• Technical and Business Expertise: Having walked the path of founder, CEO, I understand the specific challenges of building, funding, and scaling technical organisations.

• Practical Wisdom: I've translated timeless principles of consciousness into practical frameworks that produce measurable improvements in leadership effectiveness, decision quality, and team alignment.

Today, I work exclusively with founders, co-founders, and CEOs of technology and deep science companies who are committed to creating meaningful impact while experiencing genuine fulfilment.

My coaching isn't about abandoning ambition—it's about amplifying it through alignment with your deepest truth and highest potential.

My commitment to you

If we work together, I commit to being both a steadfast guide and a challenging mirror. I'll share everything I've learned about scaling technical ventures, winning multi-million dollar contracts, and developing high-performing teams. I'll also help you access the inner resources that make external success sustainable and meaningful.

The leaders I work with don't just build better businesses—they create lives of extraordinary impact, authentic connection, and genuine peace.

I believe that the most revolutionary innovations will come from leaders who have integrated their technical brilliance with consciousness, wisdom, and holistic wellbeing.

If this resonates with your vision for leadership, I invite you to explore whether we might be the right partners for your journey.
