About

Highly capable people experience a specific sense of exhaustion and isolation. My clients are these highly intelligent and capable individuals that everyone seeks out for their wisdom and reliability. But this role eventually becomes filled with resentment and obligation. Personally and professionally, we over-function, looking to make everything better. We grew up wanting to be exceptional, but didn't anticipate how burdened we'd feel; we're important but feel taken for granted. This pattern isn't arbitrary - it has history and purpose: why are we organized this way, what are we protecting, and do these strategies still serve us?
