Aligned: A Therapist’s Guide to Getting Over the Sh*t That’s Been Holding You Back

If anxiety runs the show, self-doubt keeps you second-guessing, and people-pleasing leaves you exhausted, it’s time to take your power back.

Aligned helps you break the patterns that keep you stuck and step into your most grounded, confident self.

You’ve done the overthinking, the people-pleasing, the trying-to-be-everything-for-everyone. Now it’s time to break the patterns keeping you stuck and finally feel calm, confident, and in control again.

This isn’t just another self-help book you’ll read once and forget about. Aligned is like having a therapist walk beside you helping you uncover the “why” behind what you feel, guiding you to pause and reflect with compassion, and giving you therapist-approved tools to actually create change.

It’s equal parts real talk and reflection designed to help you understand yourself on a deeper level and finally start healing what’s been holding you back.

Inside, you’ll learn how to:

  • Untangle the roots of anxiety and self-doubt so you can finally understand where they come from and stop letting them control you.

  • Recognize and heal generational patterns that pass down shame, fear, and emotional disconnection.

  • Set boundaries without guilt and honor your needs without feeling “too much” or selfish.

  • Release people-pleasing and perfectionism so you can show up authentically not anxiously.

  • Break free from unhealthy relationship patterns and start creating connections that actually feel safe and fulfilling.

  • Build unshakable self-trust, confidence, and clarity as you step into your next chapter feeling grounded, empowered, and aligned.
