Subdue Your Stress

A powerful online course for high-performing professionals who are running on empty.

You work long hours, juggle high-stakes responsibilities, and keep everyone around you calm—even in chaos.

You’re the go-to person when things go sideways. You stay steady, show up, and push through—day after day.

But when you finally stop, your body doesn’t.

The tension in your neck won’t quit. Your mind keeps racing. You snap at the people you care about. You try to relax, but it feels like another task on the list.

You’re running on fumes... and deep down, you know it’s catching up with you.

I know this life. I have lived it!

I’m Lucretia—a licensed mental health therapist who has spent 20 years working on a psychiatric unit for teens.

I’ve handled emotional crises daily. I guide my clients through the intense process, and I work well with my team of professionals.

I can’t count how many times people have exclaimed, “I don’t know how you do it! I could never do what you do!”

They are imagining the weight I carry and the emotional toll of the heartbreaking situations I regularly encounter.

And I shrug it off. It’s the profession I have chosen.

At the same time, I have raised a family, pushing through, running on empty, and ignoring the toll it was taking—until my health forced me to stop.

A serious autoimmune condition finally made me realize I couldn’t just keep “powering through.” I had to get smart about stress. Not just for my peace of mind—but for my survival.

So, I applied everything I knew as a behavioral specialist—to myself.

I created strategies to calm my system, fix my sleep, and stop the stress spiral before it wrecked my health any further.

Now, I’m on the other side of that crisis—and people tell me how calm I seem. But it wasn’t always that way.

That’s why I created Subdue Your Stress; an online course built specifically for high-stress professionals who need real solutions—not fluffy advice.

Effects of Chronic Stress

  • Problem #1: Cognitive Fog & Poor Decision-Making Stress compromises judgment and memory. While managing a case or in the courtroom, that's the last thing you need!

  • Problem #2: Physical Wear & Tear (Fatigue, Tension, Burnout) Chronic stress isn't just mental, it harms physical function and erodes energy and stamina.

  • Problem #3: Automatic Overreactions (Emotional Hijacking) When people don't have stress tools, they either shut down or lash out - and that can cost a case, a career, or a relationship.

Imagine being able to walk into a tough negotiation, a trial, or even a family crisis, and keep your body and brain online and focused. This course isn't just about calming down - it's about gaining an edge by being composed, present and sharp.

Consider this training for your clients to rein in their emotions throughout the process, to help them follow your instructions, and to manage their image while on the stand.
