The Truth About Leadership at the Top

You’ve earned the titles. You’ve broken barriers. You’ve reached milestones that most people only dream about. Yet privately, you may feel like something’s missing. Success has cost you more than you expected: your peace, your health, or the sense of purpose you once had.

This is the paradox of high achievement. From the outside, everything looks flawless. But beneath the surface lies exhaustion, stress, and hidden trauma patterns that silently dictate decisions, relationships, and energy.

I understand this intimately. As a Commander in the U.S. Coast Guard, I led during high-stakes crises where lives and futures hung in the balance. I rose fast, I achieved highly—and I also burned out completely. That experience taught me what true leadership requires: not just strategy and results, but deep healing, resilience, and spiritual alignment.

What I Bring to Leaders Like You

My work integrates three powerful dimensions:

  • Trauma Default® Reset – Transform the hidden patterns sabotaging your leadership, influence, and health.

  • Burnout Recovery & Resilience – Restore clarity, vitality, and presence so you can lead without collapse.

  • Strategic Leadership Acceleration – Build authority, navigate politics, and secure elite roles and compensation.

  • Spiritual Wholeness & Alignment – Anchor in purpose, connect to your deeper calling, and expand your legacy.

This isn’t theory, it’s proven transformation. In the past eight years, I’ve helped clients secure over $420 million in salary raises and business revenue while restoring their well-being. Leaders walk away with both elevated results and renewed lives.

“It's time to shift from survival mode and learn how to thrive in the success you've created. You already have all you need. You just need a proven system.” - Christy

A Results-Oriented Firm 

Welcome to Vision Finder International. The space I created to help high-achieving leaders recover their wholeness, restore purpose, and rise to their next level of impact. I specialize in decoding the hidden patterns that silently sabotage success, what I call the Trauma Default®, and replacing them with alignment, resilience, and authentic power.

As a Harvard alumna, Forbes-featured Executive Coach, and former U.S. Coast Guard Commander, I bridge leadership strategy, trauma resolution, and spiritual alignment. My work doesn’t just shift mindsets—it transforms the inner and outer lives of leaders who carry the weight of influence.

My clients don’t just feel better—they achieve measurable outcomes that ripple through their careers, organizations, and lives:

  • Increased Earning Potential: Over $421 million in salary raises and business revenue generated, with 12 executives securing $1M+ compensation packages.

  • Increased Retention: 70% of my clients remained in roles they once planned to quit, now thriving in purpose-driven alignment.

  • Increased Engagement & Productivity: 300 leaders recovered from advanced burnout, returning to their teams with renewed clarity, creativity, and energy.

  • Better Health & Fewer Sick Days: 40 executives overcame stress-related illnesses, including hypertension, diabetes, lupus, fibroids, anxiety, and depression, by realigning with work that lights them up.

  • Improved Relationships: 30 marriages were saved, and hundreds of kids benefited from a more present parent who no longer traded presents for presence.

The visible results are powerful. But the real magic is in the hidden work beneath the surface. The inner reset that allows leaders to rise higher than they ever imagined.

It's Possible to Recover From Burnout and Rediscover Your Passion

In 2012, being addicted to winning, I almost worked myself to death, and although I was highly successful in my career, the sacrifices to my mental and physical health and relationships were just too much.

I resigned with three years left to retire with a full pension and then proceeded to catastrophic Stage 12 burnout, where I mentally and physically collapsed. It then took me four years to recover mentally and seven years to recover financially.

I thought leaving my good-paying job and starting my own business was the secret to less stress and more pay, but that was the catalyst for a complete meltdown. 

Looking back, the reality is that all of this was preventable – if I had just had the right system to help me understand the root of my insatiable desire for overachieving, which was rooted in the fear of failure. No matter how many awards, degrees, and promotions I accumulated, it was never enough. So, whether you decide to hire us to work with your team, attend one of our retreats, or just take advantage of our free resources, don’t expect your circumstances to change without first changing yourself.
