What's Really Driving Your Burnout, Triggers, and Patterns?
Take the free two minute quiz to discover your Trauma Default™ and uncover the unconscious pattern keeping you stuck, overwhelmed and burning out.
What's the pattern behind your burnout?
You don't need more mindset hacks. You need to decode the hidden emotional pattern silently running your life.
High achievers are trained to perform, not heal. That's why even the most successful people secretly struggle with anxiety, burnout, and feeling like they're not enough.
These aren't flaws. They're trauma defaults, invisible identity scripts from childhood that still influence your adult life. You are likely completely unaware of what the patterns are, which is why you may feel stuck and frustrated in several areas of your life.

The 5 Trauma Default Patterns
Your results will highlight one of these patterns:
The Overachiever – You perform to be seen, but never feel enough
The Rescuer – You save everyone else while silently drowning
The Lone Wolf – You push people away to protect your pain
The Aggressor – You lead with control to mask inner chaos
The Chameleon – You shapeshift to fit in, but forget who you are
Each one includes a custom action plan to become self-aware of what's blocking your peace and next level of success, so you can take your power back.
The Aggressor
Ciandra was in a toxic job that exacerbated her fear of not having enough money. She had money saved and acquired assets, but with a Trauma Default attached to lack, anything that threatened her money made her aggressive.
The Lone Wolf
As an only child, Brenda was caught in a cycle of overachievement and also being alone. Despite being highly successful, she played small when it was time to take credit for her work, so she just worked harder to prove she had value.
The Rescuer
Teenage mom to executive leader, Dana made a tremendous comeback from a temporary setback. After six kids, 30 years of marriage, a lucrative career, and mentoring others, she found herself depleted from pouring from an empty cup for decades.

Christy experienced stage 12 burnout in 2012, which forced her to resign from a highly successful career with 3.5 years to retire with a full pension. It took her four years to recover mentally and seven years to recover financially. A significant part of her recovery was acknowledging her overachievement and relentless work ethic was rooted in her fear of failure. Working 80 hours a week out of the fear of failure impacted her mental and physical health, relationships, family dynamics, money and ability to feel satified with the success she had achieved.
Once she put herself back together again, she started to assist other high achievers (who don't know how to, nor want to slow down), even under medical duress.
In the past five years, her work has led to remarkable outcomes. Christy has assisted over 300 leaders with recovering from the critical stages of burnout, alleviated stress-related illnesses for 38 leaders (high blood pressure, diabetes, lupus, fibroids, anxiety, depression, etc.), and saved 30 marriages. The byproduct of wholeness resulted in over $421 million in salary raises and small business revenue.
