More about

Pernille Bülow

Learning about the brain-body connection transformed my life trajectory.

For the first time, I started fully understanding why humans become who they are. But in the end, this insight led to more questions than answers.

My creativity bursted.

As a blue collar daughter, I defeated the odds by being a first-generation college and PhD graduate. I moved across the world to pursue neuroscience at the best research universities in the world, and left little undone in my pursuit of knowledge. Because of my determination, I can now call myself an award-winning scientist.

Through this scientific journey I could also, finally, start my own trauma healing process.

As I mastered the skills of a researcher, I realized that communication and self-insight were cornerstones of not only my professional success but also my personal wellbeing. I also realized that my drive for research was rooted in people’s mental health. I now focus my energy on helping people thrive. How do I do that? I speak, write, coach and consult.

I quickly understood what a life coach can do to enhance work towards full recovery—Pernille challenged me to step outside my comfort zone to work towards creating a supportive community and challenge those eating disorder thoughts that were still hanging on.
