The Early Scripts We Carry
How childhood patterns shape your present — and how to rewrite them.
Childhood Doesn’t Stay in the Past.
Our early experiences shape how we relate to love, safety, and self-worth.
Even as adults, we often respond from old scripts — like people-pleasing, perfectionism, or staying small.
These aren’t flaws — they’re imprints.
These patterns can be understood.
And they can be rewritten.
Approval-Seeking
Fear of Disappointing Others
Conflict Avoidance
Hyper-Independence
Difficulty Setting Boundaries
Emotional Numbness
Chronic Guilt
Some of the patterns we carry most often.
Self-Abandonment
Saying yes when you mean no — to stay safe or keep the peace.
Inadequacy
Feeling like you’re never enough — no matter how hard you try.
Demanding Attitude
Always pushing — to avoid feeling powerless.
Excessive Standards
Striving to be exceptional — never feeling like it’s enough.
You don’t have to stay stuck.
​But you have the power to change the story.
This is your time to break free.
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?

HERE'S WHAT THESE LIFE-LEADERS SAY...
"Before working with Steffen, I didn’t even realize how much of my life was shaped by the fear of disappointing others.
I kept saying yes to everything
and slowly lost myself in the process.
Coaching with him helped me set boundaries I never thought I could.
For the first time in years,
I feel like I’m finally living my life—not someone else’s."
— Julia, 34, San Diego
"I came to Steffen after a job loss and a brutal breakup.
I felt invisible — like I had no say in my own life.
Coaching helped me stop trying to prove myself to people who were never going to see me.
I started making choices for me — and it changed everything.
I’ve got a new role now, better boundaries, and way more self-respect."
— Marcus, 38, Oakland
"I used to overthink everything — terrified of making the wrong move and letting people down.
Steffen helped me reconnect with my gut — not someone else’s rules, not perfection, just my truth.
I made decisions I’d been avoiding for years.
And for the first time, I don’t feel lost. I feel powerful."
— Elena, 43, Seattle

Struggling with something?
"It takes as much effort
to live a crappy life as it does to live a great one."
