How much time does burnout recovery coaching require each week?

Is InnerShift therapy or coaching?

InnerShift is coaching — forward-focused and action-oriented, not clinical. We help high-functioning entrepreneurs who are burned out or misaligned, not people requiring clinical mental health treatment.

Client Transformations

Real shifts. Real results.

Founders and leaders who stopped running from burnout — and built something better on the other side.

★★★★★

I was hitting $30k/month in revenue but crying in my car every morning. Three months with InnerShift and I'm not just more profitable — I actually look forward to Mondays. The business strategy and the inner work are the same thing. I just couldn't see that before.

Sarah M.

Startup Founder, SaaS

★★★★★

I kept thinking I just needed a better system. Turns out I needed to stop outsourcing my inner life. The consciousness work was the business strategy I'd been missing. Six months later, I closed my biggest contract ever — and felt nothing but peace doing it.

David R.

Agency Owner, 12 years in business

★★★★★

InnerShift helped me see that the burnout wasn't a sign to quit — it was a signal to build something different. I restructured my entire practice, raised my rates, and tripled revenue in 8 months. But the real win? I stopped dreading Sunday nights.

Jennifer K.

Healthcare Consultant & Coach

★★★★★

I'd done therapy, done masterminds, done retreats. Nothing landed until I worked through InnerShift's framework. The distinction between working in consciousness versus working on strategy is the lens I didn't know I was missing. My entire team noticed the shift in me within two weeks.

Marcus C.

CEO, Leadership Consulting Firm

You've tried harder. You've worked longer. You've optimized everything except the one thing that actually moves the needle: yourself.

The stress isn't going away with another productivity hack. The anxiety isn't a time management problem. And the hollowness that creeps in when you're "supposed to be grateful" for your success? That's your signal. Something deeper needs to shift.

If this sounds like you, you're in the right place:

You hit your revenue goal and felt… nothing. Maybe even worse.
You're exhausted by Sunday night before the week even starts.
Success looks good on paper but feels hollow in practice.
You sacrifice sleep, relationships, and health for the business — and it still feels like not enough.
You can't figure out if you need a better strategy, a vacation, or to blow it all up.
You've googled "burnout recovery" at 2am more than once.

Built for people who are done performing and ready to transform.

Entrepreneurs who hit a ceiling

Your business is working, but you're not. You've scaled revenue but lost yourself somewhere along the way. InnerShift gets you back.

Service providers running on fumes

You give everything to your clients and keep nothing for yourself. The passion that started this is buried under exhaustion. Time to dig it out.

Corporate professionals ready to break free

The title looks good on paper. The reality feels hollow. Whether you stay or go, InnerShift helps you find what you're actually here to do.

The Founder

Built from burnout. Designed for what comes after.

InnerShift was created after a personal reckoning — a business that looked successful on paper while the person running it quietly fell apart. The kind of burnout that doesn't announce itself until it's already taken everything.

What became clear through that process: the standard coaching playbook treats business strategy and inner work as separate disciplines. They're not. They've never been. The most durable results come when both are addressed at the same time, in the same practice.

That's what InnerShift is: a methodology that treats your business performance and your personal wellbeing as one integrated system — because they are.

Founder Transformations

What happens when founders do the inner work.

$500K → $1.2M

Revenue in 12 months

After 12 weeks of integration work, I stopped treating my business like a performance and started treating it like an extension of who I actually am. The strategy didn't change — I did. Revenue more than doubled. The bigger shift? I stopped dreading my own calendar.

Daniel

SaaS Founder, B2B

22/28 → Rebuilt

Burnout score to thriving

I scored a 22 out of 28 on the burnout assessment. I was technically functional but completely hollow. The InnerShift integration process didn't just manage the burnout — it rebuilt the foundation entirely. My team noticed the shift before I had the words for it.

Alex

Startup Founder, 3 years in

3× Revenue, 40% Fewer Hours

In under 4 months

I believed working less meant earning less. The consciousness work completely dismantled that story. Three months in, I'd tripled my revenue and cut my working hours by 40%. Clarity and presence do more than hustle ever did. I wish I'd known that sooner.

★★★★★

I was two weeks from shutting down my company when I started working with Andre. Six months later, revenue is up 40% and I actually sleep through the night. The integration framework changed how I make every decision.

Rachel K.

CEO, SaaS Company · Series A

★★★★★

Every other coach told me to "set better boundaries." Andre helped me understand why I kept blowing past them. The consciousness work isn't woo — it's the most practical thing I've ever done for my business.

Marcus T.

Founder & CTO, Fintech Startup

★★★★★

I thought I needed another productivity system. What I actually needed was to stop running from myself. InnerShift gave me the framework to rebuild — both the company and my relationship with it.

★★★★★

After my second exit, I had everything on paper and nothing inside. Andre doesn't just coach — he holds up a mirror you can't look away from. I'm building my third company differently because of this work.

Common Questions

Answers before you ask.

If something's still unclear after reading, reach out directly.

How much does coaching actually cost? +

The self-paced Alignment Architecture Course starts at $297 and includes lifetime access. 1:1 Integration Coaching starts at $3,500 for a 4-month program. Executive Transformation (6 months, high-touch) starts at $12,000. Payment plans are available for coaching programs. If you're unsure which level fits your situation and budget, book a free discovery call — we'll figure it out together.

How much time does this require each week? +

For 1:1 coaching, expect 2–3 hours per week: one session (90 minutes) plus reflection exercises and journaling. The work is designed for busy people — structured, not scattered. The self-paced course is fully flexible; most clients complete it in 4–6 weeks working an hour or two per week.

Is this therapy or coaching? What's the difference? +

InnerShift is coaching — forward-focused and action-oriented, not clinical. We don't treat mental health conditions or diagnose anything. If you're dealing with significant depression, trauma, or anxiety that requires clinical support, we'll say so and refer you accordingly. What we do: help high-functioning, high-achieving people who are burned out, misaligned, or building from an unsustainable foundation get back to solid ground.

Who is this for, exactly? +

InnerShift works best with entrepreneurs, founders, service providers, and corporate professionals who are objectively successful but privately exhausted. If you're hitting goals and still feel like something essential is missing — or if the cost of your success has become too high — this is for you. It's not for people who are just getting started or who need a basic business mentor. It's for people who've already proven they can execute, and now need to figure out how to do it sustainably.

Is this done remotely or in person? +

All coaching is conducted remotely via video call. Clients across 12+ countries have gone through the program. The process works just as well — often better — when done from your own space, on your schedule. The self-paced course is completely asynchronous and available immediately after purchase.

What if I'm not sure it will work for me? +

Start with the free Burnout Recovery Checklist or the free Consciousness Alignment Assessment. Both are substantive tools — not lead-gen fluff — that give you real insight before you spend a dollar. If the free material resonates, the coaching almost certainly will. And if you'd rather talk first, book a free discovery call. No commitment required.

What results can I realistically expect? +

It depends on where you start. Clients typically report meaningful shifts within 4–6 weeks: better sleep, less reactive, more decisive. By month three, the business changes follow — clearer positioning, stronger boundaries with clients, improved revenue. By month six, the structural changes are fully integrated. What we won't promise: overnight results or specific revenue numbers. What we can say honestly: if you do the work, something real shifts. The testimonials on this page are accurate.
