Christoffel Sneijders is a neuroscience-based executive coach, therapist, speaker, and the founder of 3 Brains Intelligence—a method grounded in the science of the Head, Heart, and Gut brains and how they shape our decisions, leadership, and well-being. He is the author of Leading with Heart and Grit, Relationships: Which Brain Is Talking, and How Men & Women Fit.

Having navigated his journey through the intense pressures of leadership, a painful divorce, a near-debilitating burnout, and open-heart surgery to replace a malfunctioning valve, Christoffel doesn’t speak from theory alone—he speaks from the trenches of personal transformation. At the peak of his corporate career, he was a senior partner at a global training firm, leading teams, traveling constantly, and juggling the demands of single fatherhood. On the outside, he was successful; on the inside, he was exhausted and disconnected. His heart—quite literally—was overworked. It was only by listening deeply to his own Head, Heart, and Gut that he began the journey of healing, realignment, and purpose.

Today, his insights are infused with this lived experience. They blend the rigor of neuroscience with the compassion of someone who’s walked through darkness and come out with a clearer light. Whether he's coaching a CEO, guiding a couple through relational struggles, or training coaches worldwide, Christoffel brings a rare blend of scientific grounding, emotional wisdom, and profound human empathy to every conversation.

He has helped more than 13,000 professionals across thirty-three countries and teaches at prestigious institutions, including IE Business School and Georgetown University. His work bridges innovative research, storytelling, and actionable transformation—ideal for those who seek not just to understand life, but to live it with alignment, authenticity, and impact.
