CHARLENE LIENHART
Charlene Lienhart, founder of ViBoA, brings together her experience in demanding corporate environments with a lifelong passion for movement, nourishment and personal development. Through ViBoA, she helps people and organisations build the energy, resilience and presence to sustain both achievement and life.
The spirit behind ViBoA
ViBoA is inspired by “Vida Boa” Portuguese for “the good life.”
The name reflects the spirit at the heart of ViBoA: living fully within the life you have, with energy, movement, nourishment, connection, joy and presence. It brings together Charlene’s corporate experience, Caribbean roots and lifelong connection to movement, alongside her experience in nourishment, energy management and leadership development.
Living more, not simply performing more.
Hi, I’m Charlene,
Aruba-born, living in Switzerland and a mother of three. My Caribbean roots shaped my love of movement, soulful nourishment, community and living with colour. More than 20 years in demanding international corporate environments taught me another world, ambition, responsibility, pressure and performance. Life brought these worlds together. Through athletics, motherhood, leadership and some of life’s harder chapters, I learned that we cannot keep showing up by simply pushing harder. We need energy, resilience and space to reconnect with ourselves. I don’t see myself as an expert who has “arrived.” I’m a woman in motion and still learning, growing, experiencing and putting into practice what I believe in. That is where ViBoA was born, bringing together POWER, NOURISH & PRESENCE to help people feel stronger, more energised and more themselves, in work and in life.
Cooking is my language. Movement, my freedom. Rhythm, my way back to myself.
Celebrate your Roots. Honor your Rhythm. “Be Authentic”.
my background
Corporate Precision 20+ years in demanding international corporate environments, with 15+ years in leadership and personal development. Movement & Rhythm 30+ years across athletics, artistic swimming, coaching, dance and movement. Nourishment & Energy 5+ years of focused experience in nutrition, energy management and wellbeing, shaped through life as an athlete, a mother of three and caring for a child with Spinal Muscular Atrophy. Montessori methodology expertise 0-6yrs 10+ years of Montessori education methodology experience. ViBoA is my way of living by example, by showing that strength, discipline, joy, ambition, leadership, and wellbeing can coexist.
Flow with Power . Fuel with Energy. Lead with presence.
“From performance at all costs to
performance with presence.”
Our Roots & Values
Culture
ViBoA is shaped by different worlds coming together, Caribbean roots and European precision, nourishment and movement, family, authenticity and community, alongside more than 20 years in demanding corporate environments. These experiences shape how ViBoA approaches energy, resilience and presence, while keeping joy, connection and the pleasure of living at its heart.
Nurturing
Nurturing at ViBoA means giving ourselves what we need to thrive, through nourishment, movement, recovery and connection. We believe performance with presence are built not only by pushing forward, but also by knowing when to restore. Caring for our energy allows us to live, work and show up at our best. Courage pushes us forward but Nurturing makes it sustainable.
Belonging
Difference adds harmony. ViBoA is a space where people are welcomed as they are. There is zero tolerance for shaming here. Joy is not exclusive, and confidence grows when we support, inspire and lift each other.
Courage
Courage at ViBoA means showing up, speaking up and moving forward, even when it feels uncomfortable. It is choosing authenticity over perfection, having the confidence to grow and change, and staying true to yourself under pressure. Because courage isn’t the absence of fear; it’s what we choose to do with it. Control what is in your power.
Craft
Beauty matters, and so do standards. ViBoA is created with care and intention from POWER, NOURISH and PRESENCE to experiences, apply, and live. What we create is meant to work in real life, stand the test of time, create memories and stay true to its purpose.
ViBoA is where movement, nourishment and presence come together.
We create experiences designed to build energy, resilience and confidence for the demands of modern life.
Through purposeful movement, practical nourishment and tools for recovery and presence, we support professionals in feeling stronger, more focused and better equipped to navigate everyday pressure.
Every offering is grounded in real life, from sunrise to workplace to sunset to rest, combining practical tools with the pleasure of food, movement and human connection that builds energy and resilience.
At its core, ViBoA is about sustainable performance without losing yourself along the way. More energy. Greater resilience. Stronger presence. And space to enjoy life, too.
“ Your energy is not separate from your leadership. it shapes how you enter every room”
