Where high-achiever ambition meets nervous-system strategy and systems that carry the weight.

For founders, CEOs who are secretly Systems Sluts —and😏who want their business to run like a machine—so they can live like a human.

Calm the chaos. Build your second brain. And make your backend do its damn job. 🍑

You Know What to Do.
You just can’t make it
stick.

You've taken the courses. Saved the posts. Bought the templates.
But, 3 months later? You’re starting over—again.

It’s not your ambition.
It’s not even your chaotic-genius, neuro-spicy brain…
It’s your backend 🍑😏

It can't keep up with your client load, your content, and your offers.
It was
never built to.
And wrangling the chaos and prentending you’re fine is burning you the EFF out.

You’ve Saved MY Business!

I signed up for some SEO schooling and I’m getting SO MUCH MORE than that! … I’m so pumped to learn this stuff! It looks like everything I wanted and needed that I couldn’t put together… you may just save my business! No joke!

How We Burnout-Proof Your Life

I’m a systems nerd, right?
So, naturally I have a system for helping you become burnout-proof using my
3-pillar Sustainable Success framework!

  • Sustainable Systems

    The backend infrastructure that carries the weight. Notion setups. Automation. Workflows that don't break at 2am.

  • Sustainable Self-Care

    Not bubble baths or generic affirmations. Actual recovery systems built into your operations. Energy . Boundaries. Shutdown rituals that stick.

  • Sustainable Mindset

    The identity shifts that make everything else work. Self-awareness without the woo. Ruthless prioritization. Permission to be ambitious without apology.

Not cookie-cutter templates.
Not one-size-fits-all advice.
Not another course you'll never finish.

Systems built for YOUR brain. YOUR chaos.
YOUR service-based business!

Start here to see how we can build burnout-proof systems for your coaching or consulting business
—whether you want to DIY it, get hands-on support, or have me build it for you.

What people are saying…

Case Study | Tiffany J. of South Sound Labradoodles

Tiffany is a Australian Doodle breeder out of Olympia, WA. She’d been operating her business off of notepads and binders and needed something searchable, streamlined, and automated!

Case Study | Dan of DjrDesigns Co:

Dan is a graphic designer and he wanted to set-up Notion Client Portals to centralize his client communication and streamline his asset approval process!

Case Study | Maleah of A.New Foot Zoning

Maleah owns a Foot Zoning Certification School and was just…feeling it! She felt scattered, unfocused and was just constantly beating herself up for never getting done what she needed to, but had always bucked against being over structured and overscheduled! We created a sustainable schedule and basic notion system to help her execute!

I'm a burnout expert & Notion systems strategist for founders & CEOs with chaotic-genius brains who refuse to slow down or work less.

Hey, I'm Ellyn

A woman with long dark hair wearing a turquoise blazer and black outfit is smiling and gesturing with her hands in a room with white brick wall, green plants, and minimal furniture.

I spent over a decade in academic and corporate research before burning out so hard I basically rage quit my life. Turns out? I was on a path I found fundamentally unfulfilling. I didn't know myself.

So, I built a business instead, thinking it would "fix" the problem…because "follow your passion and you'll never work a day in your life."

Wrong. So laughably wrong.

I burned out twice more—not because the work, but because my infrastructure couldn’t handle the juggle, enforce my boundaries or support the ambition I refused to dim!

So I rebuilt. Differently.

Systems designed for my ADHD brain. Boundaries rooted in values, not guilt. Automation that protected my capacity instead of draining it.

For the first time, my business supported my life instead of devouring it.

Now I help coaches and consultants do the same: build burnout-proof infrastructure that lets you grow without sacrificing yourself in the process.

Because burnout doesn't make you better. It makes you ordinary.
