Sheyla’s Story

From Overwhelmed Overachiever to Mindful Mentor

I get you.

You’re the one who makes things happen. The reliable one. The one who crushes goals at work, shows up for your family, and still feels like it’s never enough.

You tell yourself:

• “I’ll slow down when things calm down.” (But they never do.)

• “I can’t say no—what will they think?” (So your plate overflows.)

• “I should be happier. I should feel grateful.” (But stress and guilt drown it out.)

I’ve been there.

On paper, my life looked “successful”:

• Cum laude grad from a top school

• Thriving corporate career

• Packed social calendar, church every Sunday

But inside? I was exhausted, anxious, and constantly on edge. My mind raced with worries about debt, failed relationships, and burnout. I blamed my bosses, my circumstances, anything to avoid facing the truth: I was running myself into the ground, and no amount of achievement could fill the void.

Then came the breaking point: A work event triggered a rage so disproportionate, it shocked even me. That night, I realized this wasn’t about my job. This was about me.

The Turning Point

I started meditating. Journaling. Finally letting myself feel the anxiety I’d been numbing with hustle.

And I discovered:

• My stress was unprocessed emotions screaming for attention.

• My exhaustion wasn’t just from busyness—it was disconnection from my purpose.

• My allergies, sleepless nights, and tension? My body’s SOS signals.

Slowly, I learned to:
✔ Release the weight of “shoulds” (and finally breathe)
✔ Trust my intuition (not just my to-do list)
✔ Create boundaries without guilt (so I could show up fully for myself and others)

Today, I feel lighter. My allergies faded. My anxiety lessened.

Now, I Help Bad Asses Like You Do the Same

If you’re ready to trade overwhelm for clarity, exhaustion for energy, and anxiety for deep, unshakable peace—let’s talk.
