The Golden Cage You Can't Name
You're the woman whose life others envy.
You've checked all the boxes: the coveted title, the well-behaved children, the solid marriage.
You're other women's benchmark for success. People look at you and see someone for whom it's easy to excel at everything while keeping everyone happy.
But here's what they don't see:
The suffocating weight of living a life that doesn't feel yours.
The persistent inner voice that says, "Is this it?"
The exhaustion of being everyone's pillar while slowly losing yourself underneath all those roles.
Maybe you find yourself staring at your reflection, wondering when you became this version of yourself – the one who always says yes, who takes care of everyone else's needs but can't remember the last time she honored her own desires without feeling horribly guilty.
You're successful, capable, admired...
...and increasingly aware that somewhere along the way, you built a beautiful life that somehow doesn't have room for you in it – the real you.
The golden cage is beautiful, but it's still a cage.
You know there's more for you.
You can feel that fierce, unapologetic woman stirring–
the one who made bold moves and trusted her instincts before she learned to soften her edges to keep others comfortable.
She's ready to reclaim the wheel.
What if You Could Wake Up Feeling Like the Protagonist of Your Own Story?
Picture this:
You walk into that boardroom and share your bold idea without overthinking how others will react. Your conviction is magnetic because you know what you stand for.
How would it feel to stop saying yes to everything? When someone asks for your time, you actually consider whether you want to give it.
Imagine your relationships getting deeper because people finally meet the real you – the woman with actual opinions and boundaries.
You are at home in your own skin. Your days are intentional. You go after what you want without feeling the need to ask for permission.
This is not about burning your life down.
It's about finally being the one who decides how you spend it.
The Path from Caged to Unstoppable Exists – But It's Not Automatic
You can feel it, can't you? That stirring of possibility. The woman in you who knows exactly what she wants and is not afraid to claim it.
She's been there all along. She's waiting.
You can meet her, but there are complications:
You can't break out of patterns you've been living for decades by willpower alone.
You can't dismantle what you can't see clearly, because the conditioning runs deep.
You can't sustain change without the right tools to handle the inevitable pushback, both from the world around you and the voice in your head that's been policing your desires for decades.
Finally, doing this work in isolation is like trying to see your own blind spots.
Here's what I've learned after guiding dozens of accomplished women through their own uncaging:
The breakthrough is not about becoming someone new, but about dismantling everything that's been keeping the real you locked away.
The Uncaged Method is not just another program about finding yourself.
It's a systematic 12-week reinvention process designed to identify the exact beliefs and patterns (as subtle as they might be) that have kept you playing small, and methodically remove those barriers so the woman you've always been can finally take the wheel.
You get the roadmap, but more than that, you get the structure to actually follow it and the support to stay the course when your old patterns try to pull you back.
Because transformation without accountability is just expensive inspiration.
INTRODUCING
A 12-week mastermind experience to help you reclaim your time and energy, own your desires, and create a life that's worthy of the woman you're becoming
Get ready to:
Remember who you were before you started dimming your light to keep everyone comfortable.
Get crystal clear on what you want your next chapter to look like, separate from what you think you should want.
Start making the changes you've been putting off – whether that's a career move, ending a draining relationship, or finally pursuing that project – by taking those first small, intentional steps.
Handle the guilt and pushback (at its root!) that comes when you stop being available for everyone else's needs first and start prioritizing your own.
Create routines and boundaries that stick, so choosing yourself becomes automatic instead of a daily battle.
Why this works when other approaches don't
Most programs try to fix your mindset.
In the Uncaged Method we identify and dismantle the conditioning that created the problem in the first place.
You don't just learn to set boundaries – you rebuild the internal authority that makes enforcing them natural.
You don't just discover what you want – you develop the conviction to claim it, even when others are uncomfortable with the new you.
Most important: You don't just get the tools, strategies, and roadmap to navigate your reinvention – you get grounded in the woman you are becoming and let her lead the way.
Program begins September 23rd - Enrollment closes September 20th
When I started working with Katia, I was in a dark place – disappointed with my life choices, sad, and angry. I wasn't sure coaching would work for me. But I had such a shift in perspective!
I see things so differently now, so much more positively. I know what I want and I'm going for it. I don't care what others think about it anymore – and that feels incredible. I recommend working with Katia if you need to find yourself again or regain confidence in your abilities.
Ines Abejon
Shopping & Wardrobe Coach, Jewelry Designer
Initially, I wanted career coaching to know where I want to go and if that's the right path for me. After only a few sessions with Katia, I had a much clearer picture – of my possible career path but mainly of myself! The questions she asked weren't always easy and made me think deeper about what I was actually struggling with. I ended up unraveling my fears, which had been hindering me from confidently pursuing my plans. There's still more work to do, but with Katia I feel positive and safe to explore what's been holding me back.

The 5-Step Process That Takes You From Caged to Unstoppable
Week 1
Kickoff call
We lay the emotional and practical foundation for your reinvention. You'll meet your cohort, clarify your intention for the next 12 weeks, and decide on the structures and systems that will allow you to create space in your life for this work.
Weeks 2 & 3
Module 1: Reclaim Your Radiant Self
We strip away the layers of people-pleasing and "shoulds" to uncover who you were before you started dimming your light so that your confidence skyrockets and your decisions feel easy and aligned.
Weeks 4 & 5
Module 2: The Alignment Framework
We create your personal compass – you articulate your values, purpose and vision – so that your choices feel obvious instead of agonizing, because they’re based on what you actually want, not what others expect.
Weeks 6 & 7
Module 3: Action Accelerator
We turn your vision into concrete weekly steps you can actually take so that you start making real changes instead of staying stuck in the planning phase.
Weeks 8 & 9
Module 4: Slay the Saboteurs
We identify and dismantle your specific limiting patterns of guilt and self-sabotage so that you can handle pushback – both internal and external – without retreating back into old habits.
Weeks 10 & 11
Module 5: Uncaged & Unstoppable
We build systems and habits that make prioritizing yourself automatic so that your reinvention becomes sustainable – your new normal – instead of fading as soon as you face your first setback.
Week 12
Integration & Next Steps
We celebrate how far you've come and create your roadmap for continued growth. You'll leave with concrete plans for your next chapter and the tools to handle whatever comes up.
What They Say About Working With Me
Working with Katia was transformative. When I started, I was focused on my professional path, thinking it would create the foundation for my next chapter. Through her insightful guidance, Katia helped me recognize that instead of trying to fix circumstances, I needed to examine the deeper patterns in my personal life and relationships. I gained the clarity and confidence to make brave decisions that aligned with my true desires and values. I recommend Katia to anyone who needs support seeing their life with fresh eyes and finding the courage to make necessary changes.

Working with Katia helped me achieve great results. She was inspiring, tailoring sessions to my needs and gently pushing me outside my comfort zone. I made significant progress with major impact both professionally and personally. The benefits are immense and long-lasting. I can recommend Katia to everyone seeking transformation.

Ready to Reclaim Your Life?
Program begins September 23rd – Enrollment closes September 20th
Here's What Another Year of Staying Caged Actually Costs You:
Your dreams don't pause while you figure out the "perfect" time to pursue them.
The business idea you've been sitting on, the career change you keep researching, the relationship conversations you're avoiding – they all get harder to act on the longer you wait.
Your family gets used to a version of you that never prioritizes herself.
Your colleagues expect you to say yes to everything. The patterns get more entrenched.
If you don't consciously design your next chapter, life will design it for you - and you might not like what it chooses.
Enrollment closes September 20th.
The women who join this cohort will spend the next 12 weeks designing their next chapters and taking concrete action while you're still thinking about it.
You can join them – or you can wait another year and wonder what would have happened if you'd decided to bet on yourself.
The choice is yours. But make it consciously.
I've Been Where You Are – And I Know The Way Out
Hi, I'm Katia.
I built what looked like the perfect life: Harvard degree, successful career as a defense analyst, beautiful family, international adventures.
But I was living by everyone else's playbook, not my own.
So I rewrote the rules. It wasn't easy – leaving my marriage, changing careers, facing the guilt and pushback that comes with choosing yourself. But I did it methodically, one decision at a time, and built a business helping women break free from golden cages and design lives that are theirs.
I've guided dozens of brilliant women through this exact reinvention process using a proven roadmap I created from my own journey. The credentials that once defined my cage now fuel my mission to help others break free: Master's from the Harvard Kennedy School, PhD from RAND, bestselling author of "Uncaged: A Good Girl’s Journey to Reinvention", featured in media outlets like The Financial Times, The New York Times, The Guardian and Harvard Business Review.
My superpower: I can spot good girl conditioning from a mile away and will help you not only see but systematically dismantle those patterns at the root.
The path from caged to free is methodical, not magical. That's exactly what I'll teach you in The Uncaged Method.

This program is PERFECT FOR YOU if:
You are successful but feel like something's missing
You want to remember the confident, bold version of you
You know there's more for you, but don't know where to start
You are exhausted from being everyone's go-to person
You want to make changes without feeling guilty or selfish
You are ready to invest in your own growth and future
This is NOT FOR YOU if:
You want someone else to tell you what to do with your life
You aren't willing to examine your patterns and conditioning
You expect change without doing the inner work
You are looking for a quick fix rather than lasting transformation
Here are the Answers to Frequently Asked Questions about The Uncaged Method
Do I have enough time for this? I'm already busy.
You're busy because you haven't learned to protect your energy yet. This program will actually give you time back - when you stop saying yes to everything, you suddenly have space for what matters.
The structure is designed for women with full lives: 90 minutes weekly, plus the community support that happens naturally between calls.
I'm hesitant to make this investment. It feels selfish.
This is exactly the conditioning we'll be dismantling. You'll invest in your home, your children's education, vacations - but investing in your own future feels "selfish"? When you expand and become more fulfilled, everyone around you benefits. Your family gets a happier, more authentic version of you.
What if I don't know what I want yet?
Perfect. Clarity isn't a prerequisite - it's the outcome. Many women join saying "I don't even know what I want anymore." By the end, you'll not only know what you want, but have the courage and tools to claim it.
Is this the right time to be making big changes?
There's never a perfect time. But the world is moving fast - if you don't consciously design your next chapter, life will design it for you. That voice saying "there's more for me" isn't going to get quieter.
Will this work if I don't want to burn my life down?
This isn't about burning anything down. It's about building from the inside out. Most changes my clients make are strategic shifts, not dramatic overhauls. You keep what serves you and redesign what doesn't.
Your Uncaged Life Is Waiting
Right now, you have two choices.
You can close this page and go back to the life you've been living – the one where everyone else's needs come first, where you keep postponing what you really want, where you wake up in five years wondering what would have happened if you'd taken the bold step to choose yourself.
Or you can take the first step toward the life you actually want.
The next step is simple:
Book your complimentary Uncaged Strategy Session.
In this one-on-one call, we'll map out where you are in your life right now, what the life you desire looks like, and what's been standing in your way.
You'll walk away with clarity about your next steps – whether that includes joining The Uncaged Method or not.
No pressure. Just clarity.
If we determine the program is a good fit, we'll talk about next steps. If it's not the right time or approach for you, I'll tell you honestly and point you toward what would serve you better.
Either way, you'll have spent an hour getting crystal clear on what you want to create next – and that's never wasted time.
Enrollment closes September 20th. Program begins September 23rd.
The women who book their strategy sessions this week will be the ones sitting in our first call, ready to reclaim their lives.
Don't let another year pass wondering what could have been.
