Hi, I’m Roberta

I am Roberta Vommaro, a former lawyer turned serial founder and TEDx speaker, passionate about meditation and empowering high-achieving professionals to weave together diverse passions to create a rich and authentic life. With nearly two decades of experience, I have guided numerous high-achievers to exceed their personal and professional goals, honoring their renaissance multipassionate nature, while unlocking purpose and profit.

From Law to Zen

After making a name for myself as an international tax lawyer, I had a major burnout. But in the challenge, I saw an opportunity: a chance to align with my dreams while respecting my energy & authentic goals - to ensure that I never equated self-worth with a job title again.

While recovering from burnout, I found solace in reconnecting with meditation - a practice I started when I was 13. Despite having all the external accomplishments that come with being a high-achiever, I wasn't truly fulfilled. Meditation supported me in giving clarity and confidence to initiate the first of many pivots: I left my stable, secure job in law and dove headfirst into wellness entrepreneurship.

Wellness Entrepreneurship

For over 15 years I studied and taught the science of ancient texts and holistic therapies. After becoming an expert in the field, I built a groundbreaking wellness studio - Salt & Spirit Wellness - in Vancouver, Canada, incorporating healing sciences, Yoga, Meditation, Ayurveda, and Coaching. Just two months after we opened our studio’s doors, we began to draw attention from international clients, prompting the creation of an online platform, blending the unique concept of the studio’s holistic practices with coaching. The content of this online platform with courses, series, and workshops can be found under the tab MINDSET & MEDITATION.

Business Coaching

Building a brick-and-mortar business in one of the most expensive cities in the world was nothing short of a huge feat. And it was noticed.

Requests for 1:1 mentorship increased exponentially. Clients wished to improve not only their spiritual or wellness practices, but also learn how to build or improve their businesses and careers. Through our coaching sessions, they found a refuge where they could finally be themselves, embracing all aspects of their nature (the spiritual, the emotional, the practical, the business) to become whole.

I’m uniquely positioned to support other high-achievers because I know what it is to be one. My knowledge is grounded in tried-and-true methods I have applied both as an entrepreneur and while coaching leaders, entrepreneurs and business owners for over 10 years.

My philosophy

I've always attracted clients who are some of the most intelligent and driven people I know – CEOs who can't turn off their work brains, entrepreneurs who are determined to take their businesses to the next level, conscious leaders who want to bring more authentic confidence into their offerings.

They come to me because they know I'm not going to give them some airy-fairy, impractical advice. Instead, I show them how to find balance while still achieving their wildest dreams – whether that means becoming a balanced lawyer or a materially fulfilled spiritual teacher.

Roberta Vommaro at Tedx

After decades into wellness entrepreneurship, teaching meditation and business coaching, I was absolutely thrilled to share my story on the TEDx stage.

“How did it happen?” - I am often asked. Organically, and 100% through energetic ALIGNMENT - exactly what I help clients to achieve. We all have the capacity to tap into this inner power, call it manifestation, co-creation, or simply soul alignment. I teach you how to harness your own magnetism and a few other practical steps that help you achieve your goals too.

I would be honored if you watched my talk, and even more grateful if you'd share it with the people in your life who need a little inspiration to start following their dreams.
