In your own words, what is 'Executive Resilience: The Somatic Reset' and how is it different from typical wellness or stress management programs?

In short: Typical programs teach you how to survive the fire. A Somatic Reset teaches you how to extinguish the fire within your own physiology so you can lead with a clear head.

Which types of professionals or teams get the most out of your approach?

This somatic and resilience-based approach is most transformative for teams where high-stakes decision-making meets emotional labor.

1. High-pressure leadership & c-suite

Executives often suffer from "decision fatigue." When the nervous system is stuck in a chronic state of high alert, the prefrontal cortex (the part of the brain responsible for logic and long-term strategy) begins to "go offline."

The benefit: A somatic reset restores blood flow to the brain's executive centers, allowing for cooler heads during mergers, pivots, or crises.

2. Project managers & operations leads

These professionals are the "nervous system" of an organization. They absorb the stress of stakeholders, developers, and clients simultaneously.

The benefit: It prevents "second-hand stress" absorption. Using somatic tools allows PMs to act as a grounding force for their teams rather than a mirror for the chaos.

3. Sales & business development teams

Sales roles are a constant cycle of "pursuit and rejection." This creates a "yo-yo" effect on the nervous system—surges of adrenaline followed by the "freeze" or "slump" of a lost deal.

The benefit: It helps teams maintain a "social engagement" state. A regulated nervous system is more magnetic and persuasive than one that feels desperate or frantic to a potential client.

The "nervous system window" for teams

The goal for these professionals is to keep them within the Window of Tolerance. When a team is pushed too far into "Hyper-arousal" (anxiety/chaos) or "Hypo-arousal" (burnout/numbness), productivity doesn't just slow down—it becomes toxic.

4. Healthcare & caregiving professionals

For those in "helping" professions, the risk isn't just stress; it’s compassion fatigue. Because they are constantly attuned to others' pain, their own systems can become "locked" in a state of hyper-vigilance.

The benefit: Somatic work provides a way to "discharge" the emotional weight of the day so they don't carry their patients' trauma home.

5. Creative & innovation labs

Creativity requires a "safe" nervous system. You cannot innovate while the body feels it is being hunted.

The benefit: By lowering the physiological "threat" level, teams can access the "Flow State" more consistently, leading to higher-quality output and less creative block.

Why this works for these specific groups:

In these environments, "traditional" wellness (like a 10-minute meditation app) often feels like a band-aid on a bullet wound. These teams need active, physiological tools that they can use in the moment—between calls or during a high-tension board meeting—without needing to leave their desks.

What can someone expect to learn or experience during a typical workshop or consulting session, and what changes might they notice afterwards?

The session experience: From chaos to coherence

1. The "current state" assessment: We begin by identifying the specific "block"—whether it’s a business bottleneck, a recurring limiting belief, or physical tension. Instead of just analyzing the logic, we look for where that stress is "stored" in the body (e.g., a tight chest, a "foggy" head, or a literal pain in the neck).

2. Guided somatic discovery: We use "bottom-up" techniques to communicate with the nervous system. This might include Awareness Exercises (tracking internal sensations to see how the body reacts to certain thoughts) and Regulating Resources (using breath, micro-movements, or "grounding" to shift the body out of a high-stress state (Sympathetic) and back into a state of safety (Parasympathetic)).

3. Energetic & generational clearing: Once the body feels safe, we go deeper. This is where the Spirit-led guidance and Reiki come in. We identify the "root" of the belief—is it yours, or was it inherited? The Reiki acts as a "finishing coat," smoothing out the energetic ripples and ensuring the nervous system can integrate the changes without feeling overwhelmed.

What they might notice afterward

The results of somatic work are often both immediate and "slow-burn."

Immediate changes (the "reset")

Physical lightness: A common report is feeling "ten pounds lighter" or noticing that chronic muscle tension has simply vanished.

The "quiet mind": The mental chatter—the "to-do" list and the "what-ifs"—suddenly feels distant rather than deafening.

Expanded breath: Realizing they have been "shallow breathing" for years and suddenly being able to take a full, deep breath into the belly.

Long-term shifts (the "resilience")

The "pause" button: Instead of reacting instantly to a stressful email or a difficult family member, they notice a new "space" between the stimulus and their response.

Increased capacity: They can handle a heavier workload or more complex emotional situations without hitting the "burnout" wall.

Clarity of purpose: When the nervous system isn't in survival mode, it's easier to hear what "feels right to the soul," leading to better career and life decisions.

Integration: The "healing hangover"

It’s important to tell clients that they may feel a bit "tender" or tired for 24 hours. This is the body physically processing the release of cortisol and adrenaline that may have been stored for years. It’s a sign that the Somatic Reset actually worked.

For a busy professional, what's the easiest way to begin working with you, and how much time commitment is usually involved?

The easiest way to begin

The most streamlined entry point is "The Reset" Workshop or a Discovery Consultation.

The discovery call (15–20 min): A brief "vibe check" to ensure alignment. We discuss your current bottlenecks and determine if a somatic approach is the right lever for your growth.

"The reset" (single session): If you're ready to jump in, a single 60-to-60-minute session allows you to experience the physiological shift immediately without a long-term contract.

Time commitment overview

I offer different "containers" depending on whether you are looking for an immediate nervous system "reboot" or a total professional transformation.

The "micro-commitment" advantage

For professionals who feel they have "no time," it's helpful to know that once you learn the Somatic Reset techniques in our sessions, the daily "maintenance" takes less than 3 to 5 minutes. It’s not about adding more to your calendar; it’s about changing how you feel while doing everything already on it.

Efficiency for the busy executive:

Remote-first: All sessions are done via phone or video, eliminating travel time.

No prep required: You don't need to "study" or prepare; you just need to show up and be present.

Sops for stress: You walk away with a "Standard Operating Procedure" for your own nervous system that you can use between back-to-back meetings.
