Curious on what performance coaching can do for you?
Introduction
“you can choose courage or YOU CAN CHOOSE comfort - but you cannot HAVE both.”
- Brené Brown
Hi there, I’m Dawn Mari. I’m a Speaker, Facilitator of High Impact Retreats and a Performance Coach.
I’m also a former C-level executive in Finance (Private Equity & Hedge Funds), a solo remote travel addict, a Georgetown Law Grad, a David who sometimes picks fights with Goliaths, a midnight dancer, and a Mom to Monty, my Drag Queen Lhasa Apso.
My unconventional life has led me to build to a BOLD, unconventional platform.
I don’t know many other C-level executives who have traveled ALONE to some the most remote, gorgeous locations in the world for over 15 years. Do you? A bit Bear Grylls. A bit Brene Brown. A bit Wendy from “Billions”.
My mission is to INSPIRE CHANGE. To teach cutting edge performance frameworks (leveraged by a deep knowledge of biohacking and mindfulness) and share raw, uncensored stories of courage that will inspire others who feel stuck or trapped by their life choices.
My goal is to remind people of how infinitely powerful they are.
I catalyze RAPID professional and personal TRANSFORMATION so that you can live with more FREEDOM, fulfillment, MONEY….& kick *ssery. I’m not a life coach, I am a BOLD coach who specializes in corporate execs who crave change.

ABOUT DAWN MARI
Speaker, Podcaster & Performance Coach
I believe that everything we really want in life, is on the OTHER side of doing what we truly Fear.
How did I learn SO MUCH on Confidence & Grit? I’ve been ADDICTED to solo remote travel for 15 years and the rapid personal transformations that accompany extreme adventures in the wild, alone. I’ve also locked horns with executives who manage 5bn+ in asset management when culture, conduct or employee health is at issue. I’m simply not afraid of saying what needs to be said.
How did I learn about Freedom? I’m a minimalist who narrowed down all of her personal belongings to 10 UPS boxes in 2021.
How did I learn about Leadership? 20 years of working in one of the most stressful, intense, cut-throat industries in the world, Finance. Years & years consulting closely with over 15 different PE and HFs. 15 yrs studying leadership and organisational psychology from Simon Sinek, Adam Grant, Brendan Burchard & various renowned contributors to the Harvard Business Review.
What’s my unique approach? A deep knowledge (please read “OBSESSION”) of neursocience & the subconscious, psychology, flow state, meditation, breathwork and high performance habits combined with a demand to take CONSISTENT ACTION - micro-acts of courage on a DAILY basis.

Signature Talk: This bold, insightful & vulnerable discussion details the paralyses of fear, and the strong hold of limiting beliefs - whether its beliefs about income, or intelligence, or job promotions, or weight loss. Everything we REALLY want lies on the other side of DOING what we fear. So why don’t we take action? Many procrastinate & cling to complacency and excuses simply to keep themselves safe. This talk, pulling in much about the latest studies on neuroscience, mindset and the subconscious, is the SLAP that we all need to snap out of the coma and the safety, and JUMP into the next level of LIVING with HIGH performance.
-
This is where Dawn's deep dive studies into pro-athletes and all-star teams comes shining through. High performing teams are built on trust, clear communication, relentless grit and the ability to leverage off of each other's expertise. This talk goes into how to get your team cohesive, especially when there are a lot of big egos - how to get your players running at speed, in pace with one another and in the right direction.

Employee turnover and disengagement is at an all time high and whether its in the political or corporate arena, we seem to be experiencing a crisis in leadership and a breach in trust. This no-nonsense talk goes through the latest leadership techniques from the BEST performance and sports coaches in the world. It also covers communication methods that can make an impact. So many are talking right now, from boardrooms to podiums to stages, but few are listening. There is a reason, and there is a cure.
-
The most SUCCUESSFUL high performers in the world, the LEADERS, have a handful of consistent traits & habits. Two of them are their WILLINGNESS to fail, and learn by failing, again and again and their RELENTLESS ability to take consistent ACTION. Get off the bench & step on to the court to learn more as this talk is HIGH IMPACT, FAST PACED and all about HIGH PERFORMANCE HABITS.

This talk goes through the cultural & generational differences which contribute to miscommunications and a lack of connection and presents an EFFECTIVE ACTIONABLE roadmap on how to attract & leverage the invaluable talent of Gen Z.

HIGH Performance coach
I’ve seen corporate executives through big transitions, transformations, career pivots, hostile negotiations, jumping jobs, crises at 1AM and rapid personal & professional growth. After 20+ years working as a high performing corporate executive myself, in one of the most cut throat industries in the world, I GET IT. I have sat in your shoes, I have felt the relentless pressure, the stress, the blind drive for more, the intermittent burnout, the wind in my hair as I am screamed at (!), the scalding heat in boardrooms, the heart palpitating sweat of a crucial presentation, the chess game of Medici-like politics. I understand YOU. During my time in Mayfair I saw a big need for MORE of the unique, fearless approach I offer. The candid, direct way in which I quickly and accurately analyse the ROOT cause of any problem & start presenting actionable solutions. I’m also a certified hypnobreathwork coach - and this methodology, amongst others which I have studied obsessively - allows me to create rapid personal transformation (hint - it combines a lot of the latest research studies in neuroscience and the subconscious).
Certified in MASTRY EXPERIENCE coaching amongst various other transformational coaching modalities.
Sought-After Speaker
I’ve spoken at several to audiences from 50 to 300 over the last 6 years on leadership, change, culture and confidence. My uncensored, “tell it how it REALLY is” approach has a way of resonating immediately with the audience, causing a stir, inspiring dialogue and creating an atmosphere where most THINK AGAIN about their assumptions and standard approaches.
There is a crisis in leadership across the world - from politics to corporations - and when Dawn speaks she does not BS, placate or underestimate her audience - she says it how it is - and she focuses on smart strategies for change. The impact…. is immediate. She also focuses on techniques that support long-term sustainable change, she doesn’t do the ‘fast food’ McDonalds approach of this is how to make your employees productive or happy this week - then what? What happens in one month? This is about sustainable change where you see increased performance year after year.
