Stress, emotional overwhelm, and unhealthy habits silently take a toll on your well-being as high-achieving professionals and leaders. You know what you should be doing but feel stuck in cycles of burnout, weight gain, and unprocessed emotions that affect your careers, relationships, and health. Despite your success in other areas, you find yourselves unable to break free from these patterns on your own.

The longer this cycle continues, the greater the cost—more stress, more exhaustion, and more temporary fixes that never address the root issue. Time slips by, and with it, missed opportunities for growth, fulfillment, and physical vitality. Without intervention, this struggle compounds, leading to your deeper dissatisfaction and, for many, serious health consequences.

Leslie’s coaching program offers a proven path to lasting transformation by addressing the subconscious patterns and emotional blocks that keep high performers stuck. Through hypnosis, mindset coaching, and deep emotional work, she helps clients achieve true mastery over their habits, health, and success—without relying on your willpower or short-term fixes. Take control of your future now and start the journey toward lasting freedom today.

“I had a high achieving CEO, she told me, ‘I've tried everything, why would this be different?’ Really, the difference is you've never worked on the root cause before. Look for yourself. Have you worked on the root cause of your eating before? Has there been a program that has taught you and has guided you and sat with you as you feel emotions and emotional patterns and subconscious beliefs? Have you actually had someone hold your hand as you're experiencing it yourself? That's where the action part comes in.” - Leslie Thornton
