Holly Snow is a stress management specialist, certified nervous system coach, and the creator of the Stress Reset Method, which she has taught to more than forty thousand clients and students worldwide over the past fifteen years. Her work sits at the intersection of neuroscience, somatic practice, and behavioral psychology — translating complex research into practical, daily habits that help people move from chronic overwhelm to sustainable calm.
Holly earned her bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Vermont and holds advanced certifications in somatic experiencing, polyvagal theory, and mindfulness-based stress reduction from the Center for Mind-Body Medicine. She began her career as a wellness program coordinator for a Fortune 500 company, where she designed and led stress management initiatives for teams under high-pressure environments. The gap she observed between what the research said worked and what people would actually do in real life sparked the development of the Stress Reset Method.
In 2018, Holly founded Snow Wellness, a coaching and education platform that offers live courses, digital programs, and one-on-one coaching for individuals and organizations. Her previous book, *Breathe First: Simple Practices for Overwhelmed Professionals*, was published in 2021 and has been translated into six languages. She has been featured as a stress management expert in *Forbes*, *Mindful Magazine*, and on the *TEDx stage*, where her talk "Your Nervous System Is Not Broken — It's Adapting" has accumulated over two million views.
Holly lives in Portland, Oregon, with her partner and two young children — who, she is quick to admit, provide an endless real-world laboratory for stress regulation practice. When she is not working, she can be found hiking in the Columbia River Gorge, practicing Ashtanga yoga, or reading any book that includes the words "new research suggests." She is deeply committed to making stress science accessible, practical, and genuinely useful for people who do not have an extra hour in their day to meditate.
