Hi, I'm Regan Oelze.
I had my first panic attack at 5. Fast forward 20 years, and I had graduated from a top-tier university in Switzerland, landed a job in big tech, moved countries, and led EMEA marketing for a tech unicorn. But the anxiety? It continued. It became a habit of mine to sneak off to the bathroom for a “quick panic attack” before meetings, only to touch up my mascara and bounce back like nothing had happened. Then, “out of nowhere,” I quit that big tech job with no backup. I avoided the never-ending question of “What are you going to do next?” - trying to hide that I was so burnt out that I could barely hold a conversation, much less a job. For 6 months, I spent most of my day in tears on the couch forced to deal with my anxiety because my brain and body felt like they were on fire. I had “paid my dues” at the expense of my mental health. The 70-hour work weeks, constant stress state, back-to-back meetings, excessive levels of caffeine, and using work to ignore every other ounce of stress happening in my personal life had finally caught up with me. I realized that the success metrics I had internalized weren't truly mine - they were what society expected of me and I took the bait. I had devoted myself to being “perfect,” and I lost myself in the process. I started coaching to help woman change how they see anxiety. I want you to live fearlessly because I know what it's like to feel like you're never enough. Especially at work. Taking back control of your life and speaking up requires confidence, which is exactly what we'll tackle together. You deserve to be unapologetically proud of your accomplishments - no matter what success looks like for you.
