BREAKing UP WITH BURNOUT
For ambitious leaders who refuse to choose between success and wellbeing
and You’re overwhelmed…
Your ancestors struggled so you could thrive— not just survive. Of course you're grateful for the blessings you do have - you're fully aware of the sacrifices made for you to be where you are today.
AND ALSO, YOU'RE...
-
Running on empty, struggling to juggle it all​
-
Saying yes to every opportunity - except to rest​
-
Neglecting your own basic needs, feeling stuck
-
Maybe putting off a secret dream to keep others comfortable?
It worked for me too
- until it didn't!
​
-
The sleepless nights killing performance and presence
-
Friends stop inviting you out. . . they know your answer
-
The mind gets cloudy and your body won't cooperate
-
Joy fades and it all feels like a chore.
-
Irritability, anxiety, and exhaustion are your new normal.
YOU FOLLOWED
ALL.THE. RULES...
BURNOUT IS NOT WEAKNESS.
IT'S BIOLOGY.
​​
"Survival mode" is your sympathetic nervous system activating "fight or flight" - keeps you alert - looking for cues of safety or danger... that's it's job.
When this is your everyday, with little down time for recovery, your body begins a physiological "shut down" process. In your body's infinite wisdom it's doing it's job of conserving precious life force energy and protecting you - from yourself.
To you, this could look like:
-
Irritability, exhaustion, increased worry
-
Feeling disconnected, numb, cynical, hopeless
-
Headaches, chronic pain, GI and weight change
-
Unable to meet the moment like you used to.
-
Neglecting or snapping at loved ones
“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”

Burnout hits differently for first-gen & BIPOC leaders
Burnout for us is multi-layered and complex.
It's systemic *and* cultural.
​
-
Gendered roles
-
Access to resources
-
Societal expectations
-
Inherited familial responsibilities
Whether you're conscious of it or not, these influence your personal identity, self-worth and sense of belonging - dictating how and why you overextend yourself, and stay stuck in the stress and burnout cycle.
​
How you cope in relationships and friendships is exactly how you cope with stress at work.​ The patterns are the same. The nervous system doesn't distinguish.
​Hi, I'm Nicole Torres
Certified, Trauma-Informed Somatic Practitioner & Leadership Coach
​I'm probably not much different than you. I had that insatiable drive, cared deeply, and always strived to give 100%
I burned out—not once, but twice—during my 13 year career before I realized I needed a different path forward.
​
I'd change jobs hoping it would be different "this time". But as the saying goes, "where ever you go, there you are." Once I looked inward, I stopped focusing on what I couldn't control, and focused on what I could control: MYSELF.
I transformed from an overwhelmed, anxious "boss babe" circa 2015, who could barely get out of bed - into someone my clients now describe as "a very grounding presence."
Incoming cliche... I know how hard it is to imagine existing in a way you've never experienced, or seen... but If I can make this shift from chaos to clarity, so can you!
"All meaningful work requires dedication—but who says the path forward can't *also* hold ease?
​That gentle intuitive knowing, that soft arrival... that's the cozy magic I help you embody as you attract your authentic life and live out your biggest dreams."

what you can expect
My goal is always deep transformation—real change you can see, and others will notice too.​ The benefits of this work are priceless and boundless.
Here are three key, life-changing concepts you'll master
When you understand how your body responds to stress (fight, flight, freeze, appease) through a trauma-informed lens, everything shifts. No more shame. No more apologizing for your reactions. You'll finally see the difference between your capacity and your capability. Think "knowledge is power" in action!
01.
Your body's stress response
Understand how your nervous system works, so you can stop apologizing for it.
The Dictator. The Perfectionist. The Caregiver. We all have survival patterns that help us cope and get our needs met. But these same patterns can keep us stuck -when our lives evolve but our coping strategies don't... ie: "I know what I should do, but I do this instead." Recognizing your archetype is the first step to changing the pattern.
02.
Your Survival
patterns
Discover why you do what you do - even when you know better.
Sometimes sacrificing for others is necessary. But if you're building a life based on “expectations” and leaving your dreams in the clouds —we'll unpack why that is, and help you reclaim what's yours or find a win/win.
