I want to tell you something I’ve never shared quite like this because maybe you’re where I was. Holding it all, functioning, calm on the outside but frayed underneath. Wondering why you still feel this way when you’ve done everything “right.”
For most of my life, I was the one who could handle anything. I knew how to read a room, how to be what people needed, how to stay two steps ahead of everything. Straight-A student. High-functioning good girl. Quiet, capable, endlessly adaptable.
Even through years of anxiety and depression that most people never saw, I kept showing up. I kept achieving. I kept smiling through it.
People called it resilience.
But what they didn’t see was that I’d been bracing since I was five.
Looking back now, I know that what I thought was ambition was actually survival. That what looked like strength was actually a body in constant hyper-vigilance. That what passed for “managing well” was actually me performing my way through exhaustion.
And eventually, it stopped working.
A mild traumatic brain injury that developed into post-concussion syndrome became the moment everything cracked open. I couldn’t push anymore. I couldn’t override what I felt. My body that I’d ignored, silenced, overruled for years, finally said "enough".
Everything I had used to stay afloat started to unravel. The relationship, the house, the path I was never meant to be on.
And for the first time, I didn’t try to fix myself. I started learning how to meet myself gently and without a timeline or a checklist.
It was terrifying.
But it was also the beginning of coming home.
That unraveling became the foundation of the Depletion Recovery Method. Not a program to perform in. Not another productivity tool dressed up as wellness. But a place to land. A space for your system to be met, not managed.
If you’ve been holding it all together for too long…
Then this is your invitation.
You’re not too sensitive or asking for too much.
You’re just tired of surviving a life that looks good on paper but costs you everything to maintain.
I'm opening the doors again soon. If your body knows it’s time I’d be honoured to walk this path with you.
