When Everything Feels Heavy, But You Don't Know What You Can Do Differently

Just you and me. Three hours.

One custom plan built around your real-life challenges and the things no one else has been direct enough to name.

This is for overachievers who are done with recycling old feelings and stories, who are ready to quickly get to the bottom of what's not working, and who want an actionable plan that will make a real difference.

What can actually change in a 3‑hour coaching intensive?

More than you think. Especially when someone knows exactly where to look.

Every Intensive is built around your life. Not templates. Here's what women typically come in with, and what they walk out with:

01

The Boundary Tune-up

You know how to say no.

You just can't say it without being overcome with guilt, seeing their face change, and you caving ten minutes later.

You'll leave knowing exactly where your boundaries are breaking down, what's driving the people-pleasing and guilt, and how to hold the line when people push back.

02

The Resentment Untangle

You're angry and you don't even know why. Everything feels heavy. Everyone needs something from you.

You'll leave knowing where you've been over-functioning, what you've been expecting from others without letting anyone know, and what to shift within yourself so you stop taking it out on the people you love.

03

The Career Crossroads

Your life looks great on paper. Inside, you're flat.

You're wondering "Is this all there is?" but you're terrified to change anything.

You'll leave with a clear picture of what's keeping you stuck, what's actually possible, and you can start allowing yourself to stop surviving until retirement.

04

The Relationship Shift

Your partner isn't getting the real you. Your kids are getting what's left over.

You know something needs to shift but you don't know where to start.

You'll leave understanding where your responsibilities end and others' begin, what patterns are harming your relationships, and how to show up differently starting this week.

You don't have to decide which box you fit into.

Most women come in with overlapping challenges, and this day is built around your specific situation.

Dasha Tcherniakovskaia, life coach for overachievers
Meet Dasha

Former corporate lawyer. Former therapist. Now a life coach for overachievers who can pinpoint what's keeping you stuck, usually within the first 5 to 15 minutes.

I know what it's like to be stuck. And what it's like to follow a safe and predictable path.

Over a decade ago, despite being unfulfilled for years, I couldn't easily leave the law and disentangle my sense of self from the prestige of Big Law.

It took two years to let go of the old identity, embrace the fears and the ambiguous grief, and to find my new calling.

On the one hand, I was wishing someone could show me the way. On the other, I needed that painful process so that I could support other women through it now.

I became a therapist and loved watching clients come in with heavy emotional burdens and leave lighter and more optimistic.

They felt understood and validated. They gained deep insight. But they kept venting about the same problems and people, and nothing really changed that drastically in their lives.

I knew there had to be a faster path. That's why I created this work.

I combine psychology, spirituality, and practical strategy to get to the bottom fast and then build a plan you can actually use.

Spiritual doesn't mean mystical. It means you don't need energetic blueprints or aura cleansings to enable you to do this work.

This is all about what you can replicate yourself going forward.

No fluff. And certainly no recycling old stories and emotions.

You do not need to wait for other people in your life to change so you can finally feel better. Your well-being is in your hands.

How It Works

Here's exactly what happens when you book your Intensive.

No guesswork. No surprises.

1
Step One

Purchase and Complete Your Intake

After you purchase, you'll get immediate access to an intake form and a link to schedule your prep call.

This isn't a surface-level questionnaire. It's designed to help me start seeing your patterns before we ever sit down together.

2
Step Two

Prep Call (45 minutes)

We walk through your intake together. I ask the questions most people won't ask, and I start identifying what's actually going on beneath the surface.

By the end of this call, I already know where we're heading on your Intensive. There is no additional prep work required from you after this.

3
Step Three

Your Coaching Intensive (3 hours, virtual)

This is the intensive. Using everything from your intake and prep call, plus what comes up in real time, I work with you to uncover what's draining you, where you're over-functioning, and which patterns are harming your life without your awareness.

We don't just talk about it. We build your action plan during the session.

4
Step Four

Your Customized Action Plan

You walk away with a written plan designed around your actual life.

What to stop doing. What to start doing. Where to protect your energy. Specific enough that you're not trying to piece together what we talked about from memory.

Why Three Hours

Life coaching vs therapy: why this works in three hours when years of therapy haven't.

I was trained as a therapist. I spent years watching burnt out women recycle the same issues for months.

I know what that process looks like, and I know why it moves slowly.

This moves fast because I can pinpoint what's holding you back within minutes.

Not because the work is shallow. Because I've spent years learning how to go straight to the bottom of it instead of focusing solely on the feelings.

But this only works if you come ready.

What I need from you:

  • Complete your intake form honestly. The depth of this day depends on what you bring into it.
  • Be open to hearing what needs to change, even if it's uncomfortable.
  • Be ready to look at your part, not just vent about everyone else's.
  • Commit to using the plan after we build it.

This is not for everyone. If you want me to tell you it's all someone else's fault, I'm not your person.

If you need long-term support, the Intensive isn't the right fit. But if you're ready to take responsibility and improve your life, this is the fastest way I know to get there.

One Last Thing

You don't need another six months of talking about it.

You need three hours with someone who can see your blind spots (we all have them), name them clearly, and help you build a plan around your actual life.

After your Intensive, you'll know exactly what's been draining you, what's yours to carry and what isn't, and what to do next.

You leave with a written plan, specific to your life, that you can actually use.

If you've been going back and forth, the discovery call costs nothing. That's the best place to start.
