Where:

Date:

You don’t lose yourself all at once.

You lose yourself in small moments.

You say 'yes' when you mean 'no'.

You downplay what hurt.

You tolerate what doesn’t sit right.

You override your intuition to keep the peace.

And over time

You become smaller.

Maybe you’ve already done this once — in a relationship, a job, a season of burnout.

Maybe you promised yourself you wouldn’t do it again.

But here you are…

If nothing changes, the pattern repeats.

Another relationship where you disappear.

Another role where you overperform and under-feel.

Another year of knowing better,

but not living better.

This 90-minute live workshop is about interrupting that pattern.

You’ll learn:

  • Where you give your power away (and why)

  • The emotional pull that keeps you choosing what’s familiar

  • What self-leadership actually looks like in real conversations

  • How to hold your ground without becoming hard

You’ll leave with:

  • A clear understanding of your self-abandonment cycle

  • Practical ways to respond differently

  • A felt sense that you can choose yourself in difficult moments

This is your moment to choose differently.

If you’ve been living life on repeat, it’s time to step out of the cycle.

Break the pattern.
