Are You Creating a Life You Actually Enjoy Living—or One You’re Constantly Trying to Recover From?
Burnout Doesn’t Have To Mean Waiting Until Your Health Forces You To Stop.
Get Ready for Return To Self
Return To Self is a 6-week private 1:1 coaching experience for the woman in burnout who has spent years being the strong one, the caretaker, the perfectionist, the people pleaser, and the one everyone depends on—and has reached the point where her old way of living is no longer sustainable and her health is a reflection of that.
In 6 weeks, you'll begin healing the emotional patterns that keep your nervous system stuck in survival mode, reconnect with yourself, and learn how to create a softer, more sustainable way of living.
The Truth Is…
You can rest and still feel exhausted.
You can know exactly what you should be doing and still struggle to slow down.
You can love your family and still need boundaries.
You can appreciate your life and still feel completely depleted.
You can be grateful and still be burned out.
And you can be incredibly self-aware and still repeat the same patterns.
Because knowing what you're doing isn't always enough to change it.
Sometimes the problem isn't that you don't know what to do.
It's that you've spent years learning how to override yourself.
You learned to push through.
You learned to be responsible.
You learned to keep everyone happy.
You learned to anticipate what everyone else needed.
You learned that resting meant falling behind.
You learned that saying no meant disappointing someone.
You learned that being needed made you valuable.
And for years, you may have been able to function this way.
Until your body started asking you to stop.
Burnout isn't simply about being tired.
It's what can happen when you've spent too long operating under chronic stress, overriding your needs, and treating survival as your normal.
And when your health begins changing, you may finally reach the point where you realize:
The way I've been living just isn't working anymore.
resting, supplements/medication, therapy, changing your diet, reading all the books/listening to all the wellness podcasts, and pushing through… yet your body still feels tense and exhausted…leaving you feeling even more drained.
advocating for yourself to doctors and specialists that don’t want to listen to you leading you to dread every follow up appointment.
received the diagnosis, but it does nothing for your symptoms. Just gives you a what’s wrong, but no way to end the exhaustion or declining health.
you’ve spent years trying to manage symptoms while ignoring the stress patterns underneath them.
You’ve already tried…
It’s frustrating and demoralizing to feel like you’ve tried it all, and to be honest, you’re TIRED and ready for something different.
The Holistic Approach…
Real talk: The reason those things haven’t worked for you is that western medicine doesn’t tackle the root of your exhaustion or declining health, which is what has built up to this shutdown of your life (hello Capitalism). It doesn’t tend to how you got here - it only helps with getting you better just enough to keep you running on the hamster wheel of life and that’s no way to truly live.
I’ve seen people struggle with this over and over again, which is why I created the Return To Self program.
If you’re truly ready to live a soft and joyful life with zero to manageable symptoms, then Return To Self was designed specifically to help you get there.
Our approach is different than the Western medicine approach because…we get to the core of your burnout by understanding why your body is trying to get your attention with the symptoms you’re experiencing.
Over the 6 weeks of working through Return To Self, we will focus on the following areas and goals:
Become deeply self aware so that you can see what behavioral patterns have caused your health to be where it is today
Honoring your past as heavy as it might’ve been because it is part of the medicine to healing your burnout and other health symptoms
Heal your trauma and unresolved emotions so that you can end or drastically minimize your symptoms and finally get your life back
Return To Self seeks out women suffering with burnout and declining health with specific criteria.
The fact is -- we can only accept a limited number of participants at any given time -- and (because of our guarantee below) we only work with those who are qualified and ready to show up, do the work, and focus to achieve the objectives of the program.
Because of this, it’s imperative that every participant is truly ready for this level of growth -- for living a soft and joyful life with zero to manageable health symptoms -- and has the attitude and drive to make the most of their time in Return To Self to get there!
It is truly exciting to support women suffering with burnout and declining health, achieve a soft and joyful life with zero to manageable symptoms, but we must make sure you are qualified (and ready) before we commit to working with you in this program.

How we’ll work together through Return To Self:
The format of Return To Self is what makes it truly unique and helps you achieve results that were previously not possible.
When we speak, I’ll explain the entire format and structure in detail.
For now, what’s most important to know is that we use a blend of…
EASY TO DIGEST CONTENT:
We’ll walk through the Return To Self framework step-by-step together during our weekly calls.
PRIVATE 1:1 COACHING:
We'll meet privately once a week for a 90-minute coaching session where we'll explore what's happening beneath the surface, identify what's keeping you stuck, and determine your aligned next steps.
UNFILTERED JOURNALING
You'll use guided self-inquiry to explore the emotions, beliefs, patterns, and desires that often get buried beneath being: the strong one, people pleaser, superwoman, overachiever, the responsible one and trauma that comes along with being the eldest daughter.
NERVOUS SYSTEM REGULATION:
Return To Self combines deep nervous system work with unfiltered self-inquiry and body integration practices to help women release chronic stress, reconnect with themselves, and create lasting emotional and physical healing from the inside out.
The Return To Self Method allows you to:
Step into your power by taking your health back (remember what life was like before your body started to break down?)
Finally manifest the life you deserve free from chronic stress, burnout, and declining health
Look at your health journey as a gift because it will force you to pour into you and love yourself for once

“Before working with Dr. Julie, all I knew was that my body was self-destructing because of stress. I had been in multiple forms of therapy, all of which helped somewhat but I still had not made lifestyle changes that significantly impacted my day to day. This is where Dr. Julie helped me most. She required me to slow down in ways I truly thought I could not do. I decided to trust her, and felt physically better within two days of taking her advice. I also learned daily strategies for emotional wellness that I still implement today. Additionally, during our sessions Dr. Julie supported me through the biggest emotional breakthrough I've ever had in therapy. I feel so relieved.
If you are considering taking the step to work with Dr. Julie, do it! It is worth the investment in yourself and access to a unique, life-changing type of therapy."
- Kerri
“I’ve been on a healing journey for years now, but I noticed that I kept getting triggered by someone and my go to tools to help me regulate weren’t working. It was impacting my work, relationships, and I started to notice tension in my body so I began working with Julie to get to the core of why I was being triggered. The work was not easy, but it was profound and I was able to recall times in my childhood where I didn’t feel like enough, heard, or protected and I was able to see how that was playing out in my adult life. I was hesitant at first because I’ve tried it all, but the work I did with Julie was life changing. I no longer feel tension in my body and the headaches disappeared, my sleep returned to normal. I got my life back!”
- NR
“I had been experiencing tightness in my chest and was having issues breathing. I felt a heavy pressure on my chest that just wouldn’t go away - therapy, resting, and journaling didn’t help and I was out of options. I worked with Julie and realized that I had so much rage trapped in my body from my childhood and it was causing my symptoms. The work allowed me to have a huge remembering. Once I was able to release the rage, the pressure on my chest subsided and I was able to speak my truth, which use to be a challenge for me because I’m a peace keeper.”
