Hey there!
I'm Cornelia, and I see patterns everywhere - in systems, behaviors, and the subtle ways we navigate our worlds. This gift of patterns recognition has been both my challenge and my superpower, and it might be the key to the smart, sustainable transformation you're seeking.

Here's what I've discovered:
Most people are fighting their own patterns through sheer willpower, exhausting themselves trying to force change that never sticks.

But what if there was a smarter way?

For years, I mastered the art of adaptation - from construction project management to board leadership, from food styling to illustration. I became expert at reading systems and delivering results quickly. But something was missing:

Working WITH my natural patterns instead of against them.

The breakthrough came when I stopped trying to change everything and started recognizing what was already working.

Suddenly:

• My "scattered interests" became rich perspective
• My "overthinking" became strategic advantage
• My "different approach" became innovative solutions
• Small, strategic changes created massive results

The Challenge: Rebuilding my health during perimenopause while building a business.

The Pattern Recognition Approach:

• Identified my "Brewery horse" cardiovascular pattern and went deeper: I mapped out my cognitive style (multilateral thinking at all times) and realized through blood pressure tracking that my entire cardiovascular system is designed to support this energy-consuming thinking style! It's built for continuous heavy duty work, not sprint loads.
• Tracked exercise-inflammation and food-inflammation timelines (consistent 24-48 hour delayed response)
• Engineered smart solutions (collagen in coffee for reaching protein targets without meal planning; building on ingredients and meals I already loved instead of forcing myself to like protein powders - ew!)
• Recognized sleep quality as the massive weight factor connection it is

• Dramatically improved metabolism without weight-loss focus
• Much improved liver health
• Consistent energy levels, gym 3-5x weekly and an overall quite active lifestyle
• Sleeping better naturally
• Cardiovascular metrics that "make doctors do double-takes"
• All while preserving energy for business building and being in perimenopause

This is what happens when you work WITH your patterns instead of against them: You can change your health AND do the other things important to you.

For Individuals: Smart Change That Actually Sticks
Stop exhausting yourself with willpower-based approaches. Learn to recognize your unique patterns and engineer sustainable transformation that preserves your energy for actually living your life.

Perfect for you if:

• You're tired of starting over every Monday
• You're tired of fads that never worked but left you doubting yourself, thinking maybe you just didn't want it "enough"
• You suspect there's a smarter way to create change
• You want results without taking over your whole life
• You're ready to work WITH your brain, not against it

For Organizations: Self-Regulation For New Leaders
Technical experts transitioning to leadership need new skills rarely taught. I provide neurobiologically-informed self-regulation training that creates sustainable, effective leaders.

Perfect for your organization if:

• You promote from within and want those transitions to succeed
• You value employee wellbeing alongside performance
• You're ready for leadership development that actually works
• You appreciate innovative approaches over traditional "management training"

What are you working with?
What's the current state of affairs?
What patterns are already working in your life?

Where do you actually want to go?
(Not where you think you "should", but where you truly want)

What's the smallest step with the biggest impact?

How do we make this sustainable and joyful?

The doubts and plateaus will come, you'll fall off the wagon from time to time. That's normal and not the problem - how you respond is the deciding factor. So we prepare for that.

This isn't about complete life overhauls or heroic efforts that leave you exhausted and clueless about how to maintain what you've gained. It's about being smart, strategic, and working WITH your natural systems while building a way that not only gets you what you want, but also shows you how to KEEP it.

❌ Most approaches: Fight your way to the goal through willpower

✅ My approach: Leverage your patterns for sustainable change

❌ Most approaches: Take over your entire life

✅ My approach: Preserve energy for what matters most 

❌ Most approaches: Generic solutions that don't fit unique brains

✅ My approach: Custom pattern recognition for YOUR life

❌ Most approaches: All seriousness, all the time

✅ My approach: Playful exploration that actually facilitates change

Whether you're an individual ready for smart transformation or an organization wanting to develop leaders who actually thrive (and their teams along with them), let's explore how pattern recognition can work for you.

Because transformation doesn't have to be torture - it actually can be fun.

P.S. If you're put off by the playful approach mixed with serous results, we're probably not a good fit. I've learned that the safest space to explore and play actually facilitates the deepest, most sustainable change. My clients who embrace this approach get results that stick.
