Real work. Your timeline.
Self-paced courses and programs for overachievers tired of people-pleasing, burnout, and chasing approval.
These courses and programs are built around the same frameworks I use in 1:1 and group coaching.
Shorter. More focused. Designed to create a real shift on one specific thing that's been running the show.

Guilt and People-Pleasing
If you can't say no without the guilt spiral, this is where to start. People-pleasing and guilt go together.
Feeling guilty doesn't mean you did something wrong. It means you let down someone else's expectations.
If you want to know how to stop people-pleasing and start making decisions from your values instead, these two resources are where to start.
The Truth About Guilt
You make choices based on guilt constantly and don't even realize it.
Learn to tell the difference between appropriate guilt that's pointing at something real and the people-pleasing pattern that floods you with guilt for setting limits.
Freedom from Guilt & Obligation Bootcamp: The People Pleasing Recovery Bootcamp
Fourteen daily video lessons on why you can't say no without the guilt spiral, why knowing what to say still doesn't make you do it, how to stop people-pleasing without becoming someone you don't recognize, and how to hold your ground when someone else is disappointed.
The most comprehensive program in the catalog.
Get the BootcampResentment, Unmet Needs, and Asking for What You Need
Resentment in your marriage, in your friendships, in your job. It's often misunderstood.
It's not about what other people did or didn't do. It's about unmet needs, unexpressed requests, and a pattern of waiting for someone to notice what you want instead of asking out loud.
If you want to know how to stop being resentful and start asking for what you actually need, these three programs work on different parts of that pattern.
Resentment to Request: Say What You Actually Need
If you tend to complain instead of asking for what you need, this is the shift.
"You never do this" (grievance) becomes "I need you to do this" (request). Not because you're being nicer, but because you're taking responsibility for what you actually need.
How to Be Strong AND Ask for Help
This is for overachievers who think they should be able to handle everything themselves and end up exhausted and resentful when no one steps in.
Here you learn to allow yourself to have normal human needs and share them with others without feeling weak. When you stop expecting people to read your mind, you stop feeling resentful when they don't.
Stop Feeling Stuck
This is for those times when everything feels like it's happening to you. It doesn't look like "poor me."
It looks like high-functioning resentment: the sense that if everyone else would just change, you'd finally be okay. See your role in what's keeping you stuck.
You don't have to work on everything at once. Start with the one that's running the show.
Burnout and Exhaustion
Running on empty isn't just a scheduling problem. Burnout doesn't go away with a vacation.
It's about where your energy is going, why you're exhausted all the time, and why overfunctioning keeps you stuck in the same place.
These two resources work on that. One for the long game of burnout recovery, one for the moments you need a shift right now.
Stop Running on Empty
Burnout recovery for women who are exhausted and don't know how to stop.
This walks you through where your energy is going, from guilt to resentment to overfunctioning, and how to start getting it back.

Self-Worth and Self-Love
Any real, lasting change comes down to your relationship with yourself.
If you've spent years chasing approval, doubting your self-worth, or quietly abandoning yourself to keep everyone else happy, this is the root work.
Learning to Love Yourself: A 15-Day Journey
Self-love isn't about bubble baths or surface-level self-care. It's about treating yourself like someone who matters.
It means being kind and compassionate to yourself when you mess up, not turning on yourself when things aren't perfect, and not relying on external validation to feel okay.
When you value yourself, you stop waiting for approval to live a different life and start making choices that reflect what you truly want.
I was feeling consistently overwhelmed. Dasha worked with me in a very conversational, thoughtful and considerate way. Her own background in big law was extremely helpful. Others I had worked with didn't understand the culture the way she did. She helped me focus my energy on things I could change and ultimately helped me intentionally begin a search for other roles that would be a better fit.Emily M. · Massachusetts
That's okay.
There are two ways to start without spending anything.
The "Stop Doing" Collection
Six free tools, each one for a specific pattern that keeps overachievers stuck: saying no without the guilt, dropping the constant apology, caring less what other people think, bottling up what you feel, feeling drained by everyone around you, and settling for less when you want more.
Pick the one that sounds the most like you right now, or take all six. They're free and they're yours to keep.
