“Consistent performance begins where safety and self-awareness meet.”

Coach Stephanie High, M.A.

My relationship with performance wasn't built in a gym—it was built in survival.


Yes, I’ve trained, competed, and crossed finish lines—but the real endurance came from navigating trauma, burnout, and the constant chase for external validation. I know what it’s like to perform while dissociated, to succeed while silently unraveling. That’s why I do this work. Because true resilience doesn’t come from pushing harder—it comes from feeling safe enough to rise.

What You Won’t Find on LinkedIn

I’m a survivor, here’s what I’ve learned:

  • Failure isn’t negative—it’s neutral. Not trying is the real loss.

  • Perfection is the enemy of authenticity. Taking up space is not a crime.

  • Doing the work is ugly, but the light at the end of the tunnel? It’s epic. And your epic is waiting for you.

I coach from experience. From resilience. From the intersection of performance and trauma. I don’t just help people perform better—I help them break free from the cycles holding them back.
