Keynotes & Workshops on Nervous System Regulation, Performance & Embodied Leadership

Cynthia Aguiar is a Performance Mentor, trauma-informed life coach, and keynote speaker specializing in nervous system regulation, resilience under pressure, and embodied leadership.

With a background in education (B.Ed.) and psychology, Cynthia delivers science-backed keynotes and interactive workshops that help leaders, professionals, and communities perform with clarity, emotional regulation, and sustainable energy.

​

She has spoken at business and leadership institutions including Ivey Business School, and is a recurring presenter for the Brain Injury Association of Canada and regional brain injury conferences. She has facilitated embodiment-based women’s leadership events, wellness conferences such as Why to Let Go Conference, and corporate and community workshops across Canada.

​

Cynthia has also been featured as a guest on leading podcasts, including a conversation on performance and resilience with former NFL player Marcus Ogden on the Authenticity Podcast.

​

Before stepping fully into speaking and coaching, Cynthia performed on hundreds of stages as a professional dancer and storyteller through movement. Her ability to command a room blends lived experience, neuroscience, performance training, and grounded presence.

​

After sustaining a brain injury in 2021, Cynthia used nervous system tools and EFT Tapping as part of her own recovery — returning to the stage and building multiple successful ventures. Today, she brings those same tools to conferences, associations, leadership teams, women’s circles, and high-performing communities seeking resilience without burnout.

Based in London, Ontario, she speaks across Canada and is open to travel.
