I’m Lizzy Bernthal, a resilience specialist, confidence and leadership coach, international speaker and author.  I served 25 years in the Army as a health professional and was awarded a MEd (Distinction) and PhD in resilience, promoted to Lt Col. I have led teams in 18 countries in the most extreme environments including Afghanistan. I was awarded Principal Fellow of the Higher Education Academy in 2017 for my contribution to Higher Education globally and was Chair of the International Committee of Miliary Medicine supporting empowerment of military nurses globally. In November 2022 I was awarded ‘Sustainable You’ Business Leader of the Year 2022’ by NWBL and  ‘Business Owner of the Year 2022’ and Leadership Coach for Worcestershire 2022/3 by Global Wire.

Who we are?

I founded Release Your Potential Ltd (RYP) in 2018 in line with my core values of integrity, collaboration, justice with a mission to end workplace toxicity. RYP designs and delivers Masterclasses, keynotes, transformational 121 and group coaching programmes globally online and face to face.

This removes toxicity, increases retention and performance while reducing present absenteeism and sickness to facilitate huge financial savings to the organisation. health and safety of the organisation.

What our members say

"“Thanks to Mel and the team at NWBL for allowing me to become a member of a great local networking group. Business is past in a way which is not forced and has allowed our relationships to flourish and mature with companies within the group. All members want to help and are always there for each other which makes it feel more of a community than a networking group.""
