Meet Chibs.
From CEO to stress and burnout coach.
Hey, I’m Chibs Okereke. I’m a stress and burnout coach, accredited mindfulness facilitator (MBSR), former founder, and reformed striver. I help organisations, teams, and individuals use practical mindfulness, mindset, and productivity tools to reduce stress, prevent burnout, and get more done in less time. My YouTube meditations now reach millions of people every month.
MSc Organisational Psychology, PG Dip, BA (Hons), Accredited Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Teacher, Center for Mindfulness, University of Massachusetts Medical School
After a severe burnout that took a serious toll on my mental health, I left the corporate world to reset, recover, and repair years of damage.
During that time, I discovered practical, science-backed tools to manage stress, anxiety, difficult emotions, negative thinking, and overthinking. What started as my own recovery became my mission—to share these tools with others.
I’ve since developed a unique framework that combines MBSR techniques from the University of Massachusetts Medical School, positive psychology methods, and years of hands-on experience working with the vagus nerve and the nervous system.

My collaborations, including my partnership with Calm, the world’s leading sleep, meditation, and relaxation app, allow me to share science-backed mindfulness tools with a global audience. I’m also part of the team developing Mettle, a mental wellness app for men that uses AI to personalise meditation practices, breathwork, and mind-hacking techniques, encouraging positive habits through accountability and healthy competition. I lead the meditation pillar.
Together, these projects reflect my mission to help individuals and organisations achieve real success, success that includes well-being, not just performance. I’m passionate about blending mindfulness and AI to help people adapt to rapid technological change while maintaining balance and mental clarity. My vision is to redefine success and make well-being a natural part of ambition.
learn practical mindfulness
Through my own stress & burnout journey I developed a systematic process to tackle these issues.
I built my personalised toolkit so that I could handle different challenging situations. Experience has shown me that stress, anxiety and burnout don’t have to run our lives. We can integrate tools to manage our uncomfortable emotions in healthy ways. Now let’s build your organisational toolkit, so that your employees can have healthy coping and self-care routines.
