The bad habits and addictions are NEVER the alcohol, bad relationships, food, work, s*x, scrolling, or hustle.

Those are just the symptoms.

The addiction to these habits is the feeling you crave — the emotional hit, your nervous system is missing.

We don’t “miss” the habit.
We miss the HIGH it gives us from the FEELING!

For me, the symptoms were obvious:

• Overworking
• Overcommitting
• Micromanaging my entire life
• Zero spontaneity
• No receiving, no softness
• Living 100% in my masculine
• Punishing my body
• Never letting myself rest

But the FEELING underneath?

CONTROL.
I was addicted to control.

I needed it to feel safe. I secretly loved it

So I created chaos, busyness, struggle…just so I could binge on the feeling of “getting it together” again.

And it almost killed me.

But it also revealed the most powerful truth I’ve ever learned:

Your “bad habits” are not failures.
They’re strategies your shadow created to meet an emotional need.

What I call your Shadow Values —
the secondary gain your brain HAS LEARNED that it benefits from.

And when I learned how to work WITH my shadow instead of against it?
Everything changed.

I stopped every toxic habit INSTANTLY.
Not 62 days.
Not slowly.
But instantly.
Because I wasn’t depriving myself of control — I was FEEDING the same emotional need I had in a healthier way. I had learned to rewire my entire system in MINUTES

My business became easier.
My wealth grew.
My relationships healed.
My body softened.
And I actually felt alive again.

This is why I created The Shadow Advantage —
the method that has helped thousands of people
end destructive habits and install empowering ones FAST.

If you’re ready to stop looping…
if you’re ready to actually change…
if you’re ready to understand what your shadow is really craving —

Comment SHADOW
and I’ll send you everything.

This work saved me in every part of my life
And it will change everything for you too. 🖤

Having guided so many clients through DEEP transformation, I've learned to recognise the most UNOBVIOUS patterns that surface RIGHT at the point where HUGE change and identity evolution is about to happen!!

So many do it alone, and dont recognise these as signs....and this is also, when the majority of people quit on their dreams, thinking that it's all going pear-shaped!!!

But... this is when I double down and get behind my legends who are ready for change, because I know all too well that these sneaky signs appear just as they are about to go quantum babbbbbyyyyyyy!!! ✨️✨️✨️✨️

So, if you find yourself ticking several of these boxes, and you've been doing inner work...

Get ready....your life is about to change for the better🙌🙌🙌

Weeeeeeeeeeee, keep shining superstar ✨️

Which ones resonated with you the most?

I've given you 18, can you find 7 more?

✔️You want freedom.
✔️You want wealth that feels easy
✔️You want to move fast on your ideas, trust yourself, speak your truth, and actually follow through.
✔️You want to feel grounded, confident, seen, and magnetic in your message and mission

But here’s what’s really happening👇

🖤 You crave freedom — but micromanage every move.
🖤 You crave ease — but fill your calendar so full there’s no room for magic.
🖤 You crave being seen — but scroll other people’s feeds and edit your voice through fear of owning your own
🖤 You crave wealth — but struggle to receive or undercharge and call it “heart-led.”
🖤 You crave peace — but chase perfection because stillness feels unsafe.
🖤 You crave belonging — but shrink yourself to fit in.
🖤 You crave expansion — but your shadow keeps choosing safety.

And here’s the truth no one tells you:

Your shadow will always win until you learn how to work with it.

Because your brain doesn’t care about success — it cares about survival.

Every disempowering habit you have has a PAYOFF!

Validation. Control. Rebellion. Belonging. Significance.

That’s why you can “know better” and still loop back into the same pattern.

But when you learn to use your shadow as a tool —

✨️ You stop procrastinating and start producing.
✨️ You launch faster.
✨️ You sell with confidence.
✨️ You attract money, clients, and opportunities effortlessly.

This is what happens when you stop trying to fix yourself…and start using your shadow to your advantage.

🖤 The Shadow Advantage is a one-day immersion for the woman who’s done healing and ready to actually change.

Instant shifts. Real embodiment. Permanent rewiring.

Ready to use your shadow as your superpower?

I'll show you how I've helped 100's to do just that!

There was a time at the start of my career when I genuinely thought something was wrong with me.

I wanted more. I dreamed of impact. I wanted to FEEL and experience freedom through my work.

But I couldn’t seem to move.

I'd sit down to work on my vision… and suddenly, I’d scroll. Avoid. Distract Numb

Overcommit to everyone but myself.
Say yes to misaligned work, when I meant no.
Push harder… then crash.
Start something… then ghost it.
Pretend I didn’t care about wealth, because honestly, I thought it wasn't meant for me....so I made money bad!

I told myself stories like:
✨ “Why is everyone else moving forward,and I’m stuck?”
✨ “Maybe I’m not cut out for this.”
✨ “I should just be grateful for what I have.”
✨ “I won't realise my dreams —and that’s terrifying.”

What I didn’t know then was that my nervous system was doing exactly what it thought it needed to do to keep me safe.

I wasn’t broken.
I was stuck in fight, flight, freeze, and fawn.

The overworking? Fight.
The avoidance? Flight.
The procrastination? Freeze.
The people-pleasing? Fawn.

I couldn’t create momentum because my body was in survival.

I couldn’t hold the vision because my identity hadn’t caught up to my desires.

And I couldn’t rewire it with more mindset work—I had to go deeper.

When I started working with the nervous system, rewriting the beliefs underneath my patterns, and anchoring into a new identity that actually felt safe to embody…everything changed.

I started to show up without overthinking.
I made decisions with clarity instead of fear.
I felt powerful without the hustle.

My wealth expanded. My relationships deepened. My life stretched to the edges of what I’d always hoped was possible.

But it started with an awareness and a choice.
A decision to no longer let old protection patterns dictate my future andd the courage to ask for support that saw all of me—not just my goals, but the fears beneath them.

This is exactly what I teach inside The Aligned Leader Collaborative.
Because we don’t just need more strategy—we need safety in our bodies to rise.
If this is where you are… I see you.
There’s another way.

You don’t have to carry it alone anymore.

DM "RISE" and let's chat❤

FLIP THE SCRIPT!! and START...

AMPING UP your expansion
UP-playing the outcomes
EXPECTING the MIRACLES
Allowing space for SUCCESS
Listening to the whispers of FAITH

This is it..

Fear doesn't get a place at your table!
Doubt doesn't get to dictate your next move!
Downplaying your brilliance is over!
Silencing and haulting your gifts is DONE!

BE RELENTLESS IN THE PURSUIT OF YOUR DREAMS

If you really DO WANT CHANGE,i hate to tell you that you are never going to grow by staying stuck in your stories and playing small.

If you want growth but would rather stay in the comfort zone, I'm sorry to say this.... but they don't work hand in hand.

Strategy alone won't get you through... because without deeply believing in yourself and ridding yourself of the limiting beliefs you have hiding in your subconscious, strategy is NEVER going to work.

YOU HAVE TO BE WILLING TO BECOME SOMEONE YOU HAVENT YET BEEN!

So...who are you when you are not where you want to be?

Are you blaming things outside of yourself, or are you looking for that freaking GODESS that you are in the mirror and saying, "I AM MEANT FOR MORE AND I WONT BE A VICTIM OF MY CIRCUMSTANCES "

Because if when things aren't going your way you let that boogie monster take over. You are completely MISSING the divine lesson of the situation you are in!!

Can you FEEL like a millionaire, EVEN WHEN THE DOLLARS DONT REFLECT IT

Can you find GRATITUDE even when the day seems against you

Can you find LOVE and FAITH in yourself even when it appears to be turning away from you?

This is the foundation of an aligned leader!

A woman who KNOWS how to show up when the world, the money, the people, and the environment DONT REFLECT IT from the outside in.

Because she is cultivating her wealth, her safety, her abundance, and her joy from the inside out!

You always have a choice, and you can always choose yourself

And when you do, when you believe you are unstoppable despite the wobbles... you become a MAGNET FOR ABUNDANCE!

SO CHANGE THE GAME..FLIP THE SCRIPT

You are not a victim!

You are a POWER, a FORCE, a soul rebel who refuses to settle for mediocre!

Now get your ass out there and LIVE!!!

Research has shown that experiencing childhood trauma can increase the risk of burnout later in life. Burnout is a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged or chronic stress.

It can lead to feelings of cynicism, detachment, self-doubt, and physical symptoms such as fatigue, insomnia, and headaches. If left untreated, burnout can have severe consequences.

I see so many clients (and I was myself like this in my past) whose career is DRIVEN from a past trauma of unworthiness.

When this is the case, you can deny yourself time off, seek perfectionism, and constantly feed the beast of "not enoughness" by punishing ourselves through high performance and never feeling satiated by our goals. This can result in a never-ending need to "achieve."

When navigating childhood trauma, we may find it more challenging to cope with everyday challenges or turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms.

These coping mechanisms can put us into permanent states of fight, flight, fawn or freeze and over long periods of time, the desperate need to find SAFETY causes the burnt out adult to use work, substances, food, s*x and other addictions as escapism to find "freedom" from the torment.

However, it is essential to remember that we can heal from these and that the risk of burnout can be irradicated.

I have used breathwork and rewiring childhood beliefs as a way of healing my case of burnout and I absolutely love to support my clients to find self-regulation again, using these tools and to help them discover a new inner peace and level of self-worth that helps them to seek success from a place of wholeness.

What are your thoughts?

Much Love

Clare ❤️

Have you suffered at the hands of burnout?
