About Me

Theresa Byrne is an award-winning mindset/insight coach, author, and TED.com/keynote speaker who helps people break through challenges like negativity and stress, self-sabotage, and find peace and inspiration in their lives.

She is a natural-born protector, empowerment authority, brain geek, and martial arts/self-defense expert who has worked directly with over 45,000 clients (and millions more in her work on television) to build their mental/emotional/physical skills, change their thinking, and live confidently. 

No matter what. 

Theresa has first-hand knowledge of applying neuroscience and neuroplasticity as a survivor of a devastating brain injury. Her TED talk “The Dangers of Your Inner Bully” struck a nerve and was voted one of the Top Ten Most Meaningful TED Talks by Thrive Global Magazine. 

Being the first woman to earn the rank of Master Instructor in her system of martial arts, she uses her skills to help others get unstuck, find balance, and use boundaries positively.

The founder of a successful martial arts/fitness studio since the late 1990s, Theresa created an entirely new way of teaching and coaching using human development principles, positive psychology, and sustainable learning which she trademarked called InPower©.
