CEO
Okolice Ciała is a personal development and systemic coaching platform founded by Marianna Gierszewska, an actress, author, and activist who transformed her personal experience with chronic illness into a mission supporting self-acceptance and healing. The platform offers multi-month transformation workshops combining live webinars, therapeutic exercises, breathwork sessions, podcasts, and journaling practices led by Gierszewska and invited specialists from Poland and abroad. Their flagship "Jestem" program delivers over 72 hours of workshop content across six months, serving thousands of participants seeking deeper self-awareness and emotional healing.
We built Okolice Ciała's education platform entirely from scratch to fit their customers' requirements, enabling them to deliver the best possible experience during multi-month online and offline workshops. Using Next.js, Fastify, Mux, and custom WebSocket implementations, we created a real-time, fluid experience that supports their growing community of workshop participants.
