You might be asking yourself... Will she get it? Will she be able to help me?
Education is like having a cook book or database of recipes. Lived experience is like having baked & eaten the cake. Information + Experience = Win. You want both an educated professional & someone who gets your kind of life experiences.
Believe me when I say, I've got plenty of both.

You didn’t learn essential life skills like how to set boundaries or how to connect to your personal power. Instead, you were taught to disconnect & suppress, live in survival & make fear-based decisions, and to focus on what’s expected from you versus what you need.
Developmental or Childhood Trauma & related conditioning sets you up for secondary adult trauma. Childhood Trauma + Adult Trauma = CPTSD.
Learning about CPTSD made my life make so much more sense in hindsight. So too did coming to see how my neurodivergent wiring was tangled with my trauma.
As a high functioning, high masking woman facing chronic fatigue I entered the “HSP to Autism pipeline” & saw how much my masking & “pushing through” was no longer sustainable.
If there's one thing I've learned & experienced...
It's that Trauma is very layered.

How does IT happen to someone who’s intelligent & educated? How do you keep ending up in situations like that? That's what I've devoted my career to figuring out.
and what I mean when I say "I GET IT"
Here's a glimpse into my story....
FAMILY + GROWING UP
Addiction & Narcissistic related coping behaviors were present in my family. Generations of wounds & transferred shame cut deep.
I know your wounding from your family of origin + lineage wounds is a LOT to hold. You know now they were traumatized, but as children you couldn’t choose between attachment & authenticity. It’s your time now. Honoring the gifts from your lineage & transforming the pain is a sacred call to cycle breakers like us.
SCHOOLING
I decided if I was handed lemons, I better make lemonade. I went to school for psychology & social work.
Understanding people has always been a passion & “special interest” of mine. I know your environment shaped you then & matters today. You may not have had a choice then but you do now. Resoration & Reclamation is priceless.
DIVORCE + Post Divorce Dating
At 40, I moved to Arkansas for my husband’s career, and three years later, we divorced. Starting over in a small town came with career struggles and post-divorce dating, where I carried unmet needs and lacked the tools for success.
After dating someone who displayed narcissistic behaviors, I came to see how my earlier life experiences contributed to my susceptibility for those kinds of behaviors. I now know that Autism or ADHD can make recognizing & getting out of unhealthy relationships much harder & can take more time. Once I finally saw the pattern, I couldn’t unsee it.
HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT
A healthy work culture requires leaders to live their values, not just perform them. Hostile environments stem from leadership’s actions or inactions, with costly impacts on health, finances, and reputation.
I faced unhealthy work systems—harassment, discrimination, retaliation, and inaction. Like many neurocomplex people, I have a strong sense of justice. Before leaving my last job, I fought back against injustice harming me, my coworkers, and those we served. Leaving felt like a second divorce—I couldn’t take any more.
Now, I support HEART-driven leaders who challenge the status quo.
THIS IS WHEN RESET WITH RENEE WAS BORN

The beliefs I hold dearest...
FREEDOM
Isn’t free. Living an authentic life, rooted in values & integrity means having the courage & conviction to dig deep, make hard choices, & lean into edges – these are training grounds for healing & evolution.
COURAGE
There was so much wreckage to heal from (childhood & adult trauma) & moving forward I needed to pick which “hard” I was going to do. There were going to be costs no matter what; but I chose long term freedom & integrity despite the short term & long-term costs
EMPOWERMENT
What you avoid, deny, disown, turn away from, reject, resist, mask, or attack, takes you further from your truth & power & at significant cost. Moving from disempowered to empowered is a reclamation.
HEART
You were designed to radiate your essence & gifts. Any blocks to giving & receiving love are trailheads for deep personal work. This is the sacred foundation of cycle breaking. From this foundation you radiate love, invite change, & bridge support to the families, communities, & systems that need your leadership.
You are open minded, accountable & a high achiever
You see past the status quo/feel different
You are called to do something greater or different
You’re ready to invest in your self-growth
You understand at the end of the day, you are responsible for your life
You need less conflict in your life
You are committed to your recovery/healing/growth journey & understand it’s ongoing
You are ready to get to the root vs. focus on the symptom
We'll Get Along Wonderully If....
