Attention All High-Achievers in Tech & Design Industries
Recalibrate and realign so you can thrive in and out of the office.
Do You…
Wake up restless and rely on caffeine and sugar to get you through the day?
Decompress by mindlessly scrolling or binge-watching?
Desire sustainable peace, confidence, and energy?
Find yourself conflicted between professional and personal obligations?
Feel guilt or fear when communicating boundaries?
Yet you keep going, and going, and going…
Whether you lead a tech company, teams, or projects within a tech and design consultancy, you are intimate with stresses associated with winning clients, launching projects, managing teams, navigating relationships, managing budgets, and ultimately launching digital products, only to find the work is endless.
Over time, the line between normal and chronic stress got blurred until it all just became “how it is.” It's overwhelming, but you don’t like admitting it, so you keep pushing through. You think it’s the job, so you change it or take a long overdue vacation, only to find that the cycle repeats—excitement, progress, frustration, disappointment, apathy. Repeat.
You know it’s time to slow down and make some changes, but the usual mindset and productivity hacks do not have the same impact as they once did. And you start to wonder if there might be something “wrong” with you. You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, frustrated — you exercise, eat well, and practice “self-care,” but it’s not enough. You need to make shifts that will derail you off the fast train, speeding toward burnout.
If this sounds like you, you are in the right place. I know, as I have been there myself…
Are you a high achiever in tech or design, driven by excellence but feeling the burnout creeping in? I've been right where you are. Our constant push for growth and excellence can blind us to the toll it takes on our well-being. After 12 intense years in tech, I hit a wall of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion. It took me years to recover fully, and I knew there had to be a better way.
I didn't want to settle for a return to the same grind. I wanted to understand why burnout happened and how to prevent myself from ever experiencing it again. My quest for answers led me to a profound revelation, that burnout is multi-faceted, and healing requires a holistic approach that includes my body, mind, and heart and different areas of my life, not just work. Burnout is a direct response to unhealthy boundaries and living out of alignment with our core values for too long.
In this journey, I've not only found my own path to well-being but also helped numerous tech professionals do the same. That's why I've crafted a holistic wellness program that gets to the root of your unique burnout experience. It's designed to transform your life from within, leading to clarity, ease, peace, and joy, a burnout free life and one that is oriented towards thriving.
Top Reasons Why This Program Is Powerful And
Will Lead To The Results You Seek
Clarity On The Root Cause of Your Overwhelm
What leads to overwhelm and blocks us from thriving is multi-faceted and not always as clear-cut as it seems. Learn the root causes of your overwhelm and how to turn it around so you can thrive in a way that is meaningful to you.
Body, Mind, and Heart
You will recognize early signs of stress and how it manifests in subtle and insidious ways mentally, physically, and emotionally, and learn to recalibrate throughout the day so you can stay centered, connected, and energized. You will recognize your own limiting beliefs leading to behaviors that result in burnout and keep you from embracing rest.
Integrative Coaching
This holistic program considers your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects and explores all areas of your life, as opposed to being only work-focused. While it follows a framework, it is not a one-size-fits-all solution. You will receive a unique roadmap and guidance that is most meaningful and impactful for YOU.
Integration and Sustainability
The program is divided into four parts: Recalibrate, Realign, Revive, and Reignite, each including subparts so you can integrate changes gradually and sustainably. With this approach, you will most likely experience long-lasting changes rather than symptom-level fixes.
