Meet Brenna
I'm a music therapist, dog mom, nature enthusiast, business owner, introvert, sleep and stress management coach, and research lover on a mission to help you remove stress as a barrier to better health, greater happiness, and more meaningful connections with the people and passions that make life exciting.
A Common Problem with Too Few Solutions
Feeling "stressed out" shouldn't be the norm, but up to 95% of working Americans find themselves in this situation. With burnout so common in today's culture, the World Health Organization finally declared it an official medical diagnosis. Disappointed by the limited number of solutions suggested to me during my third round of burnout, I sought out lasting strategies against stress. Armed with what I learned, I now teach fellow introverts how to build an unyielding defense and claim lasting victory over chronic introvert fatigue that leads to burnout.
The Introvert Called to Serve
I spent the first half of my career guiding cancer patients undergoing radiation and chemotherapy treatments, elders with dementia, and kids with developmental disabilities toward better coping skills through music. Seeing firsthand the level of compassion and effort behind these clients' caregivers, therapists, doctors, nurses, chaplains, and more who also had brushes with burnout convinced me to take my mission further.
Introverts, in particular those who are called to serve others, need a unique set of tools to recover their energy, focus, and motivation. More social interactions during the day mean a faster drain on energy resources. For this reason, introverts experience burnout more often than their extroverted counterpart.
I set out to support these superstars, who often find their secondary work expectations, mainly customer service and colleague interactions, unnatural and distracting. For starters, compassionate introverts need easier access to better tools to help face sleepless nights, tough decisions made on the quick, extra on-call and overtime, conflicts between communication styles, and lack of time in general. No need to give up good health in exchange for a life of service!

Personal Challenges to Push Me Forward

My own history of recurring burnout cycles, the first of which hit me at only 18 years old, most recently exploded in a month(ish)-long nightmare of unrelenting stressors. After nearly $2,000 in unexpected expenses, a broken nose, and two family members experiencing serious health issues I admittedly questioned karma and my ability to deal with anything more.
Whatever got me to the point of feeling like a mess inside wasn't going to fix it, including switching jobs. Sure, the honeymoon period felt better, but I found myself drowning in overwhelm again before long. I needed to approach things differently. Then, it occurred to me that within my reach sat every tool I needed to recover from and prevent burnout. Yet I ignored them instead of embracing them!
Reclaiming music and mindfulness practices for my personal health helped me adapt and persevere during the merciless barrage of misfortunes that miserable month (of a cracked windshield, a speeding ticket, getting locked out of my car two days in a row, and multiple emergency vet visits).

Music + Mindfulness = More Options
With a clear purpose of supporting healthy stress management skills in those individuals who devote their time and energy to providing care to others, I designed online tools and music for burnout recovery and to build the resilience needed for such important and demanding work. If you're an introvert who puts your energy on the line to serve others in a compassion profession, this is the place to get in tune with your needs balanced by the power of your personality. Reprogram your brain and body with new habits that help you control stress instead of the other way around.
