Ever found yourself in this all-too-familiar place?
You're scrolling mindlessly on your phone, still carrying that heavy feeling from snapping at your kids this morning. Or maybe it's the lingering echo of that conversation with your partner where words spilled out that you didn't really mean. Perhaps it's the quiet disappointment of clamming up during that client call when you knew you should have spoken up.
And then comes the guilt spiral. The mental replay. The "why did I do that... again?"
I see you. I've been there too.
(And between us, I once dramatically collapsed on my kitchen floor in tears because I forgot to oil a brownie pan... twice. We're talking full Disney princess meltdown over boxed brownies - more on that in the workbook - But yeah, I get it.)
Let's be honest...the word "trigger" has been so overused it's practically lost its meaning. We've become a culture of "trigger warnings" and carefully tiptoeing around anything that might cause discomfort.
But what if your triggers aren't something to avoid?
What if they're actually trying to teach you something profound about yourself?
What if, instead of: Trigger → React → Guilt → Repeat
You could experience: Trigger → Understand → Transform → Grow
Look, I know how it goes. Most lead magnets out there are stripped-down PDFs with barely enough content to be useful...just a means to get your email.
That's not what this is.
Yes, of course I'd love to continue our connection beyond this workbook (I've got lots of value packed things I want to share and create in the future) But it's a core value of mine that even if this is the only resource of mine you ever engage with, you will walk away with something that genuinely impacts your life and deepens your relationship with yourself.
Your time is valuable. Your email address is a sacred line of connection. I respect both too much to offer anything less than something truly worthwhile.
Trigger to Transformation is a comprehensive guide that walks you through:
• Identifying your specific trigger patterns and the bodily sensations that signal them
• Understanding the origins of your triggers and what they're trying to protect you from
• Discovering the legitimate needs behind your emotional reactions
• Practical nervous system regulation techniques to use in triggering moments
• Creating new pathways and affirmations to transform your relationship with triggers
This isn't just theory; it's the exact process I've used with all my clients (and myself) to transform triggers into opportunities for profound growth.
Before I learned to consciously respond rather than react to my triggers, I was constantly at the mercy of my emotions. Small frustrations could ruin my entire day. Criticism would send me spiraling. Uncomfortable conversations would have me either shutting down completely or saying things I'd later regret.
Learning to transform my trigger responses changed everything.
My relationships deepened because I could stay present during difficult conversations. My business grew because I could handle challenges without self-sabotage. And most importantly, my relationship with myself transformed as I replaced judgment with understanding.
That kitchen floor where I once collapsed in tears over brownies? It's now a place where I dance, create, and yes, sometimes still make a mess. But the mess doesn't mean I'm a mess anymore.
The Stoic philosopher Epictetus famously said, "It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters," emphasizing that while we cannot control external events, we can control our responses and reactions to them.
This free workbook gives you a taste of the profound inner work available in my course offerings, including Master Your Fate. It's packed with value that stands completely on its own, while opening the door to deeper exploration if you feel called.

Your triggers are speaking. It's time to listen differently.
Believing in you always,
