The Trauma-Sensitive Business

Your individual 6-month holistic coaching journey to build a thriving coaching, creative, or healing business

You are brilliant at what you do, but the business side? Ugh.

Maybe you're just starting out and don't know where to begin. Or maybe you're making some money but it's inconsistent—feast or famine cycles that keep you anxious about where the next client will come from.

You oscillate between two modes: overwhelming overwork that burns you out, or paralyzed inaction where you do nothing because it all feels too much. The thought of "putting yourself out there" triggers something deep—visibility feels unsafe, even dangerous.

You know your trauma history impacts how you show up in business, but no one's taught you how to work WITH that reality instead of against it.

Here's what I know to be true: so many women with incredible gifts to offer carry traumatic imprints in their bodies and nervous systems. And in these times—as the world feels like it's falling apart around us—the high stress is activating those old wounds in ways that make building a business feel impossible.

Maybe you don't think of yourself as having "trauma"—maybe your experiences don't feel "bad enough" to count. But trauma isn't just the big, obvious events. It's also growing up in a family where emotions weren't safe, medical procedures that overwhelmed your nervous system, chronic stress from systemic oppression, or simply being a sensitive person in a world that often feels too much.

The constant uncertainty, the collective grief, the daily overwhelm of just existing right now—it's all landing on nervous systems that were already carrying so much. Your body is trying to keep you safe in the only ways it knows how, even when those protective patterns are now limiting your ability to share your gifts with the world.

Not sure if trauma is impacting your business? Many women are surprised to discover how protective patterns show up in their work—like saying yes to everyone else's priorities while abandoning your own projects, feeling paralyzed when it's time to market yourself, or swinging between overwhelming overwork and complete shutdown.

Why Traditional Business Advice Falls Short for You

Most business coaching assumes you can "just push through" fear and take massive action. But when scarcity wounding or visibility fears trigger trauma responses, when money anxiety sends your nervous system into fight-or-flight, when every suggested move feels like you're risking your safety—traditional strategies don't just fail, they can be harmful.

You need an approach that honors your nervous system while building real, sustainable success.

The Trauma-Sensitive Business was made for you.

This work may be for you if:
