Six-Month Engagement 

Overview

When you have spent years navigating toxic institutional environments, chronic burnout, or organizational friction, the effects do not disappear simply by updating a résumé (or getting a different job). Survival strategies—such as chronic overworking, conflict avoidance, or self-doubt—often follow you into new spaces, or keep you trapped in exhaustion within your current one, unless you have dedicated room to unpack and transform them.

The 6-Month Sovereign Engagement is an extended, relational coaching partnership. Together, we explore trauma-informed inquiry, nervous-system awareness, and practical career navigation to help you dismantle old workplace survival habits that have produced shame, recover from institutional harm, and anchor long-term professional sovereignty. Think of your career narrative—and any documents we touch—not as corporate hurdles to polish, but as trailheads for understanding where your boundaries eroded and how your Self can lead. 

Who This Is For

• Survivors of chronic institutional burnout, toxic leadership, or workplace harm who need steady space to decompress before rushing into their next chapter.

• High-achievers navigating persistent survival loops—such as over-functioning, perfectionism, hyper-vigilance, or freeze states—that follow them across workplaces.

• Career pivoters desiring sustained, un-rushed partnership across all phases of departure, healing, exploration, and sustainable re-entry.

• Individuals seeking long-term relational guidance and boundary architecture rather than a fast, transactional sprint.

What We Explore & Build Together

• Trauma-Informed Workplace Healing: Identifying and releasing protective survival habits without shame or self-judgment.

• The Career Narrative as a Trailhead: Examining your work history and public professional narrative as diagnostic mirrors to uncover institutional wounds, reclaim your voice, and (when and if you need them) co-create aligned application materials.

• Sustainable Boundary Architecture & Communication: Establishing energetic, time, and interpersonal boundaries—including live practice for high-stakes workplace dialogues and de-escalating the urge to over-explain.

• Transition Pacing & Nervous System Support: Gentle, grounded frameworks to navigate transition grief, identity shifts, and the discomfort of professional unknowns.

Structure & Relational Cadence

• Duration: 6 months of steady, un-rushed partnership.

• Live Relational Sessions: Dedicated 1-on-1 virtual sessions (1 to 3 sessions per month, matched to your chosen tier) to process active dynamics, practice communication scripts, and regulate your system. 

• Asynchronous Grounding (WhatsApp or Signal): Direct access for real-time check-ins, pre-meeting gut checks, and boundary resets between calls (48-hour response window, excluding Saturdays).

• Optional Narrative Exploration: Section-by-section document reviews and strategic guidance whenever you are ready to examine your materials.

Monthly Options & Investment

All options ask for a 6-month commitment.

• Monthly: $350 – $500 / month ($2,100 – $3,000 USD total).

  1. Lighter Cadence ($350/mo): 1 live 60-minute session per month plus targeted narrative/boundary check-ins and messaging—ideal if you have strong independent bandwidth. 

  2. Bi-Weekly Momentum ($400–$450/mo): 2 live sessions per month plus ongoing collaborative touchpoints—best for steady momentum and active shifts. 

  3. Comprehensive Support ($500/mo): 3 live sessions per month with wrap-around strategy and communication support—designed for high-stakes institutional departures.

• What’s Included: Dedicated live 1-on-1 sessions, collaborative narrative exploration, and private messaging via WhatsApp or Signal.

Monthly payment plans are available. 

FAQs

• What if I don’t want or need to rewrite my résumé?

  • Then we don’t rewrite it. Your résumé is never a mandatory assignment; it is simply an optional trailhead. For many clients, the primary work has nothing to do with job applications and everything to do with workplace survival: dismantling the shame of being told you are "too much," holding clean boundaries without over-explaining, and regulating your nervous system so your current role stops draining your life.

• Is this career coaching or psychotherapy?

  • This is specialized, trauma-informed career coaching and professional transition partnership. While we draw on therapeutic principles, methods, and systems to understand workplace survival patterns, our work is non-clinical. We focus on your professional life, career narrative, workplace boundaries, and relationship to labor. If you are navigating acute psychiatric distress or require primary mental health treatment, I can provide referrals for you. Many of my clients use what we do together to collaborate with their therapists. 

• How does asynchronous messaging support work day-to-day?

  • Between live sessions, you can reach out to me via WhatsApp or Signal for quick check-ins and questions. I answer inquiries within a 48-hour response window, excluding Saturdays. This setup gives you steady access during high-stress moments without creating an exhausting sense of urgency or overwhelm.

• How do I know whether I need The Sovereign Pivot or the 6-Month Sovereign Engagement?

  • If you have a concrete, near-term transition goal—such as navigating an upcoming exit, staging a sector shift, or building an immediate boundary and communication strategy—The Sovereign Pivot (up to 9 weeks) provides focused scaffolding to move you through that threshold. If you are untangling deep institutional harm, healing chronic nervous-system burnout, or finding that old survival loops (like over-explaining, people-pleasing, or hyper-vigilance) persistently sabotage your peace in your current role, the 6-Month Engagement provides the extended, relational runway and between-session messaging support needed to rewire those patterns at the root.

• How do I know which tier is right for me?

  • We determine your tier placement collaboratively during your discovery call, based on your current emotional capacity, transition timeline, and financial runway. Whether you need the light monthly touchpoint of Tier 1 or the high-touch scaffolding of Tier 3, the container adapts to your real-world pacing.

• What happens if I land a role or my situation changes before the 6 months are up?

  • When recovering from chronic burnout or toxic workplaces, your nervous system needs time to decompress. A 6-month partnership ensures you aren’t rushing into another unhealthy environment. If you secure a role early, we use the remaining time for onboarding protection, boundary setting, and preventing old survival habits from taking root in your new workplace.
