When You’re Tired of Overthinking, Second-Guessing, and Feeling Stuck—Start Here.

It’s 2 a.m., and you’re staring at the ceiling, starring in the nightly highlight reel of Every Awkward Thing You’ve Ever Done.


  • That time in 2018 when you accidentally called your manager “Mom” during a meeting.

  • The way you signed your last text “Best wishes” and then spiraled into emoji analysis.

  • Whether your boss’s “Let’s circle back” is code for “You’re terrible at your job.”


Sound familiar?


Here’s the worst part: You’re terrified this is just who you are. That you’ll always overthink everything, always second-guess yourself, and always feel this stuck.


But what if it didn’t have to be this way?


What if, instead of lying awake replaying every misstep, you could just sleep?


What if you could look back at a not-so-great moment and think, “Eh, not my best, but I’m human.”


What if your mind felt quieter—less like a never-ending debate club and more like a calm, steady friend?


I get it: changing how you think sounds impossible.


You’ve tried it all—the podcasts, the productivity planners, the deep-breathing apps.


But here’s the thing: Change isn’t about flipping a switch and being free from the parts of yourself you don't like.


It’s about changing how you relate to yourself, one small shift at a time.


So let’s start here: What feels the hardest right now? Is it the way your brain replays awkward moments on loop? The constant second-guessing? Or the fear that you’ll always feel stuck?


Whatever it is, you don’t have to figure it all out at once.


Just know I’m here when you’re ready to start untangling the knots.
