Andrea Borda, Breathwork, Energy, & Sound Coach and Facilitator
Introduce yourself! Please tell us about you and your life, so we can get to know you better.
My name is Andrea Borda, and I was born in Colombia and raised around the world. At 18, I took a life-changing leap, moving to China by myself. This move was more than just a cultural shift; it was a stepping stone into a series of life-altering events that would challenge and ultimately transform me. My 10-year journey abroad taught me an essential lesson: Embracing change means being open to both the joys and the hardships, and my time in China encapsulated this truth in ways I couldn't have anticipated.
I'm fluent in four languages and have a passion for traveling and immersing myself in different cultures, learning their stories, traditions, and cuisine. As a lifelong risk-taker, I've embarked on countless adventures, gathering lessons, memories, and experiences along the way. My beloved companion of nearly 11 years, Hachi, recently passed away. He accompanied me on my travels worldwide, offering unwavering love and support. After a three-month road trip across the USA, exploring beautiful places and witnessing mesmerizing vortexes in Arizona, California, Colorado, and beyond, I settled in California. An avid freediver and water sports enthusiast, I find solace and joy in the ocean. I'm deeply connected to animals and believe that every lesson and hardship I've faced has shaped me into the resilient person I am today. As a Multidimensional Spiritual Guide, I facilitate powerful breathwork sessions, sound baths, energy work, and shamanic ceremonies, drawing from a wealth of experience and wisdom.
What inspired you to start this business – Zero Point Actiavation LLC?
The journey of pain and obstacles that I have lived is extensive. I have encountered happiness and beauty, but also faced many hardships. Through the power of the mind, forgiveness, self-love, and various modalities that I have learned, I have reached a place of love and healing. I am passionate about sharing this journey with everyone, to show that it is possible to experience profound love, true happiness, find our purpose, and move away from pain and darkness into the light. I am eager to share the transformative healing techniques that I practice, demonstrating that it is possible to heal even the deepest trauma. With my incredible soul brothers and business partners, we created Zero Point Activation LLC.

How do you ensure the quality and authenticity of the content/products/services on your site?
Life has tested me in every way imaginable, from physical to mental to emotional pain. Through my own journey, I've learned the importance of surrendering, accepting, and loving myself, and how to view life's challenges as opportunities for growth.
Our commitment to quality and authenticity stems from our personal experiences and professional training in the industry. Each member of our team has undergone rigorous certification and training in the tools they practice, ensuring that every experience we offer is extraordinary and unique.
We take pride in our track record of helping over 300 individuals across the US, and we're deeply grateful for the opportunity to continue expanding, healing, and guiding as many people as we can.
What sets your business apart from others in the same industry or niche?
What sets our business apart from others in the same industry or niche is our genuine authenticity and our dedication to harnessing the transformative power of both feminine and masculine energies. We understand that these energies transcend gender and are inherent within each of us. In our sessions, we offer a harmonious balance of both energies, creating a unique and deeply transformative experience.
Through techniques such as Tai Chi and energy movement, we help individuals understand and connect with their inner energy, fostering balance and alignment. Additionally, we incorporate the powerful healing practice of somatic breathwork, guiding participants to release emotional blocks and trauma stored within the body.
Furthermore, we offer the soothing guidance of a powerful soundbath, which enhances relaxation and promotes inner healing. It is through this integration of diverse techniques and the honoring of both feminine and masculine energies that we provide a truly holistic and transformative experience for our clients.
How do you engage with your audience or customers, and what kind of feedback have you received so far?
In engaging with my audience or customers, I primarily conduct group sessions as I deeply appreciate the collective energy and the synergy that arises when individuals come together for a shared purpose. The feedback I've received thus far has been overwhelmingly positive. Allow me to share a few testimonials from my clients:
Their presence, vibrations, energy is hypnotic. You can feel their love and passion for helping people the moment they enter your world. I have had years of traditional therapy trying to unlock what was exposed during my first experience with them, years of trauma released in moments. The breathwork sounded intimidating, but brought out a new level of myself I always knew was there but couldn’t quite tap into.
Thank you so much for this life-changing experience!
I am very grateful for having the opportunity to meet these lovely people (Zero point activation) They care deeply of all participants. The group reached a point where all the pain sadness and sorrow of the past came to the surface and these two beautiful souls hosting the event were able to guide us and showed us so much love and care.
It was an amazing experience. Highly recommended.

Tell us about your greatest career achievement so far.
I believe I have many career achievements, as each step of my journey has been significant in my eyes. I've learned and grown tremendously from each experience, shaping the direction of my life's path. However, if I were to choose one, I would say that my greatest achievement is the profound fulfillment I feel every time I guide a session. Witnessing the transformation and healing in each individual is truly priceless. Words cannot fully capture the depth of that experience, making it my greatest achievement thus far.
If you could change one thing about your industry, what would it be and why?
If I could change one thing about my industry, it would be the misconception that mindfulness and spirituality are merely trends. I've encountered many individuals who equate spirituality solely with activities like yoga or meditation. While these practices are indeed part of wellness, they do not fully encompass spirituality.
Spirituality is a belief system that recognizes our interconnectedness and inherent love. It teaches us to connect with our entire being—mind, soul, and spirit. One aspect of spirituality that I find particularly powerful is the understanding of the healing potential within our minds, thoughts, and beliefs. When we learn to harness the power of our minds and beliefs, we unlock incredible potential for healing and transformation.
There is still so much more to learn about the depths of our own consciousness and the superpowers that lie within each of us. It's a beautiful journey of self-discovery and empowerment. As we learn to master these inner resources, they become truly amazing tools for healing, growth, and creating positive change in our lives and the world around us.
Tell us about a pivotal moment in your life that brought you to where you are today.
Life has presented me with a series of challenges that profoundly shaped who I am today. At 18, I made the bold move from my home country, Colombia, to China. This leap into the unknown forced me to mature rapidly and view life through a completely different lens. Adapting to a new world, language, and culture cultivated resilience, strength, and a deep faith in myself. Living in China for a decade became a transformative chapter in my life.
Another significant hurdle came in my 20s with a motorcycle accident in China that left me incapacitated for nearly a year. Dealing with physical trauma was challenging, but the absence of mental health support during my hospitalization intensified the struggle. The only solace I found was in physiotherapy after months of immobility. A Chinese professor from my college played a pivotal role, visiting me regularly and introducing me to energy practices. This experience reignited my fascination with China's holistic approach to medicine, the very reason I moved there.
Another pivotal moment in my life was navigating a divorce. This was a period where my ego felt wounded, and I confronted the need for a complete transformation. It marked a juncture where I had to reinvent my life and redefine what I truly wanted for myself. This emotional upheaval became an essential chapter in my journey, propelling me toward personal growth, self-discovery, and a deeper understanding of the complexities of relationships.
A more recent challenge has been the loss of my beloved dog, my constant companion for 11 years. The impact on my life has been profound, as his presence was interwoven with my identity. Coping with this loss has been a journey of rediscovering who I am without my faithful companion.
These events have reshaped my beliefs, fostering a curiosity to explore beyond conventional tools for healing and wholeness. The realization that every life puzzle piece brings lessons and growth has been a guiding force. I recognized the need for change as I never wanted to find myself in a dark place again. My journey has taught me that darkness is merely the absence of light, and by making conscious choices, I can always navigate back to the light. Each challenging experience, though difficult, has contributed to my growth, reminding me that pain is an essential part of life's beautiful narrative. The resilience, strength, and wisdom gained from these trials have become integral to the person I am today.
