Mind to Thrive helps professional women overcome burnout and reclaim their confidence with trauma-informed coaching, blending neuroscience and leadership strategies.
-- Mind to Thrive Introduces Trauma-Informed Coaching for High-Achieving Women Leaders

Mind to Thrive, a trauma-informed coaching and education brand, has launched a unique program designed to help high-achieving women break free from burnout, reclaim their voices, and create careers that honor both their ambitions and well-being. Founded by Mary Eldridge, a licensed therapist and empowerment strategist, the brand offers evidence-based strategies that blend neuroscience, somatic psychology, and leadership coaching to help professional women thrive without compromising their health.
Reclaiming Your Leadership and Well-Being
Burnout and emotional exhaustion have become common themes among high-performing women in demanding careers. Mind to Thrive addresses this by empowering women to step out of survival mode and step into leadership that feels aligned with their true selves. Mary Eldridge’s programs focus on helping women reclaim their voices, regulate their nervous systems, and lead from a place of calm confidence instead of overdrive.
“We’re not just managing stress or staying afloat, we’re re-learning how to lead from a place of self-respect, emotional regulation, and clarity,” said Mary Eldridge. “The work we do at Mind to Thrive is about reconnecting women with their innate strength and leadership potential, helping them rise above systems that reward overwork and self-abandonment.”
Rooted in Science, Designed for Real-World Success
Mind to Thrive’s approach combines the latest research in trauma science with practical tools for professional growth. The brand’s core philosophy integrates polyvagal theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and somatic regulation, alongside leadership psychology and communication strategies. These methods are designed to help women navigate toxic workplace dynamics, set healthy boundaries, and lead from a grounded and empowered place.
“Most women I work with aren’t broken, they’re simply surviving systems that aren’t designed for their health and well-being,” Mary explained. “By learning how to regulate their nervous systems, they can show up as confident leaders, unafraid to speak up, set boundaries, and take credit for their work.”
Programs Tailored to High-Pressure Careers
Mind to Thrive offers a range of programs, including The Thriving Leader Reset and People-Pleasing Detox, which are designed to help women heal from trauma, reclaim their confidence, and create sustainable success in their careers. These programs are designed to address the specific challenges women face in high-pressure environments like corporate offices, healthcare, and government institutions.
In addition to coaching, Mind to Thrive offers community-building experiences where women can connect, share resources, and support each other on their journey to success. The combination of therapeutic principles and leadership strategies equips women to make lasting change in their careers and lives.
A Message for Women Who Feel Stuck in Survival Mode
Mary’s own journey is one of persistence, not perfection. She spent over a decade as a trauma therapist helping survivors rebuild their lives before transitioning into leadership coaching. Through this experience, Mary recognized a troubling trend: even highly accomplished, outwardly confident women were stuck in survival mode. Whether it was freezing in meetings or working themselves into exhaustion, these behaviors were not personality flaws, they were nervous system responses triggered by harmful workplace dynamics.
“The systems we work within often demand that we sacrifice ourselves to succeed,” said Mary. “Mind to Thrive is about changing that narrative and teaching women how to succeed without self-betrayal.”

Mind to Thrive's Unique Approach
What sets Mind to Thrive apart is its integration of trauma-informed therapy with leadership development. Mary Eldridge combines her clinical background as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with her experience in leadership coaching to offer a comprehensive, trauma-informed approach to career growth.
Unlike other leadership programs that focus solely on confidence or productivity, Mind to Thrive addresses the deeper emotional and physiological responses that drive women’s behavior in the workplace. By understanding how the body’s stress response impacts leadership, women can break free from patterns of overperformance and self-sabotage.
“Leadership isn’t about pushing through exhaustion, it’s about regulating your nervous system, showing up as your authentic self, and leading with clarity,” Mary emphasized.
Recognized Expertise in Trauma-Informed Leadership
Mary Eldridge has been a featured speaker at various conferences and podcasts, sharing her expertise in trauma-informed leadership, emotional regulation, and boundary-setting for professional women. Her frameworks have been implemented by women across industries, from healthcare to corporate environments, helping them thrive in ways that honor both their ambitions and their well-being.
“Mary’s unique blend of clinical expertise and leadership coaching has helped me not only understand my stress responses but also lead in a way that feels truly aligned with my values,” said one of her clients, a senior executive in the healthcare industry.
