I'm ready!

It's time for you to stop sacrificing your peace for success.

  • You spent your life collecting accolades and crushing milestones. You've built the career, the business, the "dream" life... and yet no matter how many boxes you check, you still find yourself feeling so... lost? Like, is this all there is?

  • On paper, you have it all figured out, but inside? You can barely hear yourself think over the to-do list looping on replay, your inner critic reminding you of every fuck up you've ever made, and that godforsaken tik-tok song that burrowed into your brain during last night’s doom scroll session.

  • You literally have achieved everything you've ever set your mind to – the 6-figure income, the beautiful home, the partner of your dreams – but you can never really let yourself enjoy any of it, and on your worst days, you genuinely believe that you're secretly a piece of shit that doesn't deserve any of it anyway.

  • Sometimes you find yourself wondering whether anyone can really give you what you need. You would never actually admit it out loud, but you're dying for someone to take care of you the way that you care for everybody else.

  • And actually, if you're being really honest, you can't even remember the last time you felt relaxed – Like actually though, how do people rest without feeling guilty? – and the only thing that's really keeping you together is the thought of your next vacation.

  • The worst part is, you've been talking about all this shit in therapy forever, but it's starting to feel so repetitive and nothing ever really changes...

I know it feels like if you slow down, everything will fall apart.

But you're exhausted from being "on" all the time, and your body is literally begging for your attention.

And honestly babe...

who gives a fuck what your life looks like if you're miserable?

You already know it's time for a change, otherwise you wouldn't be here.

So if you're reading this and thinking “fuck, this is me” – if you've built everything you thought you wanted but can't actually let yourself enjoy any of it – I want you to know:

There's nothing wrong with you.

Your overthinking? Your drive for perfection? Your impulsive desire to anticipate everyone else's needs before your own? None of these things are character flaws.

They're survival strategies. And they've kept you safe.

Your brilliant, sensitive nervous system learned early on that thinking through every single outcome and managing everyone else’s needs kept you safe. That doing more made you worthy. That taking up space was dangerous. That rest was something you had to earn.

These primal beliefs were handed down to you by a culture that profits from your exhaustion. By systems that taught you your value lives in what you produce, not who you are. By generations of conditioning that told you rest is laziness, boundaries are selfish, and your needs don't matter.

And here's the thing: they worked.

You built an incredible life running on these programs, and any outsider would say you're successful as fuck.

But those nervous system patterns are running you into the ground.

And beyond that, they're preventing you from getting to where you're going next:

  • A life that actually feels as good as it looks. Waking up excited about your day instead of reaching for your phone to drown out your anxiety. Making decisions with ease because you know what you want and you trust yourself.

  • A brain that actually shuts the fuck up for once (respectfully). No more 3am replays of every conversation or second guessing every email. An inner voice that feels like a friend instead of the bitchiest girl you knew in high school.

  • Deep, nourishing relationships with people that see you and love you for you, not your masks. Aligned friendships that support your dreams and anticipate your needs for once. Feeling safe to ask for what you want, without worrying about being "too much."

  • A nervous system that lets you rest and receive. Sunday mornings on the couch without that “I should be productive” guilt. Actually enjoying the life you've built instead of bracing for it to disappear.

You deserve to stop white-knuckling your way through life and start experiencing the ease, joy, and abundance that's already here.

But you can't think your way out of patterns that live in your nervous system, especially not when they've been encoded into your DNA over generations.

You don't need more analysis or another "tool." You need an experienced practitioner who can guide you to stop treating yourself like a problem to be solved, and teach you how to listen when your body speaks.

The truth is – you are a powerful creator.

(Like actual magic). Your internal world is a masterpiece. Your anxiety, wisdom. Your desires, a compass. Your emotions, activators.

Your conditioning has taught you to shame these human parts. But everything you've been trying to fix, avoid, transcend? Those are the keys to finding your magic again.

It's time to come back home to yourself.

Introducing...

🦋 The Chrysalis 🦋

A 6-month transformative mentorship for the sensitive high achiever who's done performing success and ready to actually feel it.

This is a somatic and spiritual recalibration of your entire nervous system. A journey back home to your body, your intuition, and the creative power that's buried under all that achieving.

Phase 1: Recalibrate Your Nervous System

  • Get out of your fucking head and back into your body – finally understand what that tightness in your chest is actually trying to tell you

  • Learn to listen to your nervous system instead of overriding it

  • Cultivate safety from within instead of through achievement

Phase 2: Reclaim Your Energy

  • Identify where your energy has been leaking (spoiler alert: it's the people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-abandonment  – like saying yes when you mean no or editing yourself in every conversation))

  • Expand your capacity so you can actually hold the ease and abundance you've been chasing

  • Learn how to resource yourself when old patterns show up

Phase 3: Rediscover Your Inner Creator

  • Access the part of you that's been buried under survival mode: your inner creator

  • Rebuild trust in your unique flow and stop second-guessing every decision, so you can make a choice and not spiral for 3 days about whether it’s the “right” one

  • Step fully into your world-building power and trust your magic for good

Sounds fucking incredible, right?

Here's what I need you to know before you apply:

Getting everything you want will cost you everything you thought you had.

The version of you that built your life on hustle, hypervigilance, and proving your worth can't take you where you're going. I'm not saying you'll have to blow everything up.

But to let them go, you're gonna have to let some shit burn.

The friendships that only work when you've got your shit together. The identity of being the one who has it all figured out. The comfort of knowing exactly who you are, even if that version of you is exhausted.

Releasing the version of you that survived will cost you the life you built in survival mode.

It's not comfortable. And it's sure as hell not pretty.

But it's worth it.

Because the person on the other side of this doesn't need permission to rest. They don't second-guess their intuition. They don't apologize for taking up space.

They trust themselves, implicitly. They love their life. And they create from overflow, not obligation.

That you? Is finally fucking free.

Let's do this.

about kathleen

I spent my life following the rules that had been laid out for me and collecting accolades that were supposed to fulfill me.

By 25, I had built a 6-figure career in tech. I had the dream relationship, the dream apartment – a life that looked perfect on paper.

I also had chronic anxiety, unexplainable chronic pain, and a nervous system that never let me enjoy any of it.

Therapy helped me understand why I felt this way, but it never really helped me change anything.

It wasn't until I discovered somatic work – body-based healing that addresses the nervous system directly – that everything changed. I was finally able to release the survival patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism, and self-abandonment that kept me disconnected from my own wisdom.

What followed was a rollercoaster journey home to myself, my intuition, and pieces of me I didn't even know I'd left behind. My education in systems psychology helped me understand how deeply our patterns are rooted in the culture and systems we navigate, and I knew I had to leave the world of corporate leadership development to do this work differently.

I quit my 9-5 to get certified in somatic healing and executive coaching, and for the last 5 years, I've been guiding deep-feeling high achievers to build body-based lives that honor their inner creators.

Now every day I get to help brilliant, capable people get out of their heads and back into their bodies so they can finally experience the peace, ease, and joy they've been chasing.

If I do my job right, I’ll put myself out of business, because at the end of these 6 months, you'll trust yourself more than you need me.

Frequently asked questions

  • Why is this program 6 months long? Is there an option for a shorter commitment?

    The Chrysalis is an immersive and deeply transformative program designed to completely reorient you to your body & your inner knowing. This isn't a quick fix or a surface-level mindset shift. It's a fundamental recalibration of your nervous system.

    Reconnecting to the body after being chronically dissociated can be destabilizing as it inherently challenges the life you built in survival mode. Six months gives us the time to do the deep work and ensure you're fully supported and resourced as you integrate these shifts into your daily life.

    Real, lasting transformation doesn't happen overnight. It happens in the consistent, held space of a long-term container.

  • How is this different from therapy or other programs I've tried?

    Most traditional therapy and coaching programs work from the top down, using your mind to try to change your patterns. The Chrysalis works from the bottom up – letting the body guide the way.

    Your mind can understand why you feel anxious or why you can't say no, but understanding doesn't change the wiring. (If it did, you wouldn’t be here). Real change happens when we work directly with the nervous system, where the patterns keeping you stuck actually live.

    My methodology combines somatic experiencing (a body-based trauma resolution modality), intuitive spiritual guidance, and mindset coaching, and is deeply informed by my education in systems psychology. We're not just looping about your patterns – we're rewiring them at the nervous system level and resourcing you to challenge a world that would rather you stay looping.

  • What if I've never done somatic work before?

    Perfect. That means you haven't learned to chase catharsis or use somatic tools to override your body's natural wisdom, like most of these 3-day certified "somatic" coaches are teaching.

    You don't need any prior experience to get the benefits of somatic experiencing. You just need to be willing to get curious about your body and try something different than what you might be used to.

    I'm so busy. Do I have time for this?

    If you're asking this question, you're exactly who this program is for.

    The belief that you don't have time to slow down is exactly the pattern keeping you stuck. With two sessions per month and ongoing voice/text support, The Chrysalis is designed to integrate into your life, not add another overwhelming commitment to your calendar.

    The real question is: can you afford not to do this work?

    Is this program right for me?

    The Chrysalis is perfect for you if:

    âś“ You're a high achiever who's exhausted from constantly chasing the next milestone

    âś“ You're highly sensitive and your nervous system feels like it's always "on"

    âś“ You're ready to stop thinking your way through life and start actually living it

    âś“ You're willing to question the version of yourself that got you here

    âś“ You're ready to invest in yourself and do the deep work

    This program is NOT right for you if you're looking for quick tips, surface-level strategies, or someone to tell you what to do. This work requires your full participation and willingness to be uncomfortable.

    Do you offer scholarships?

    Yes. I offer one scholarship spot per quarter for those facing financial barriers. If you're committed to this work but the investment feels out of reach, please let me know when you apply and we can chat about your options.
