Where Did You Go?
A Self-Discovery Assessment to Uncover the Parts of Yourself That You Have Learned to Hide
You'll learn: How to identify the roles, expectations, and habits that have pulled you away from yourself, and recognize where you silence your desires, dismiss your needs, or prioritize someone else’s comfort.
Benefits:
Choose a practical next step that helps you break old patterns and see the cycles so you can start trusting and choosing yourself and learn the next immediate actions to take toward stepping out of the shadows.
Does This Sound Like You?
You don’t know who you are anymore.
You’ve spent so much time being someone’s partner, mother, employee, caretaker, or dependable friend that you’re not sure what’s left outside those roles.
You keep everyone else comfortable at your own expense.
You say yes when you mean no, minimize your needs, and make decisions based on what will disappoint the fewest people
You know something needs to change, but you don’t know what.
You can feel that your current life no longer fits, but you’re not sure what you want instead or where to begin.
You struggle to set boundaries and stick to them.
You overexplain your decisions, second-guess yourself when someone pushes back, or give in to avoid conflict.
You feel guilty whenever you put yourself first.
Even when you know you need rest, space, support, or a change, choosing yourself feels selfish.
You don’t trust your own decisions.
You ask everyone else what they think, ignore your instincts, or wait for permission and validation before making a move.
You’ve hidden parts of yourself to be more acceptable.
Your anger, ambition, sensuality, desires, and opinions have been pushed aside because you learned they were too much, inappropriate, or inconvenient.
You’re tired of living a life that doesn’t feel like yours.
The relationships, responsibilities, or version of success you worked so hard to maintain may not reflect who you actually are anymore.
IF YES, THEN IT'S TIME TO STEP OUT OF THE SHADOWS!
The S.I.R.E.N. Method is a six-week private coaching experience for women who are ready to stop abandoning themselves and figure out who they have been hiding beneath the shadows.
Through weekly 90-minute coaching calls, shadow work, guided meditation and visualization, reflective exercises, and practical embodiment tools, you’ll uncover the patterns that keep you stuck in people-pleasing, guilt, and self-doubt.
You’ll identify what you actually want, reconnect with the parts of yourself you’ve kept hidden, and learn how to communicate your needs without apologizing for having them.
You’ll practice setting boundaries, trusting your intuition, and making decisions without polling everyone around you first. You’ll also develop a personalized plan for navigating your relationships, career, and next chapter in a way that reflects who you are becoming.
In between sessions, you’ll receive access to Layla via WhatsApp support group, along with tools you can apply to your everyday life such as a guided workbook, journaling prompts, etc.
By the end of six weeks, you won’t just understand why you’ve felt disconnected from yourself. You’ll know what needs to change and how to start making those changes.
3 Steps To Achieving Your Goals
Embracing Your Real Identity Becomes A Lot Easier With The Right Steps
#1
See & Identify
Become aware of old patterns
Before you can change your life, you have to recognize where you’ve been losing yourself inside it. In this step, you’ll examine the patterns that keep you stuck in people-pleasing, overexplaining, avoiding conflict, and putting everyone else’s needs before your own. You’ll identify the roles and expectations you’ve been carrying and start separating what genuinely belongs to you from what you’ve accepted out of guilt, obligation, tradition or habit. This is where you stop asking, “What’s wrong with me?” and start understanding how you lost yourself in the first place.
#2
Reclaim your Identity:
Become the Real You
Once you understand the patterns, you can reconnect with the parts of yourself you’ve pushed into the shadows. Your voice. Your desires. Your boundaries. Your intuition. Your anger. Your sensuality. The parts of you that were labeled difficult, selfish, emotional, or too much. Through shadow work, guided meditation, reflection, and personalized coaching, you’ll uncover what you actually want and begin trusting yourself enough to admit it. This stage is about recognizing that the answers and the woman you’ve been looking for has been there all along.
#3
Embody & Navigate
Start Living Your Truth
Knowing who you are matters, but your life changes when you start acting like it. In this stage, you’ll practice setting boundaries, communicating your needs, making decisions without seeking permission, and responding differently when old patterns show up. You’ll apply what you’ve uncovered to your relationships, work, routines, and future plans. Together, we’ll create a personalized action plan for what comes next, so you leave with more than insight. You leave with practical tools, stronger self-trust, and a clearer understanding of how to build a life that actually reflects who you are.
I'm Layla Dawn
I’m a certified life and business coach, Dark Feminine embodiment coach, founder of Do Life Coaching, and host of Do Life with the Dark Feminine.
I know what it feels like to look around and realize the life you’ve been living no longer fits. Over the past few years, I’ve navigated divorce, empty nesting, friendship loss, grief, betrayal, and the kind of change that makes you question who you are when the life you once knew and trusted disapears.
I’ve also been the woman who overexplained herself, put everyone else first, and confused keeping the peace with being a good person. I'm a self-proclaimed recovering people-pleaser.
My work exists because I wanted the kind of support I couldn’t find while I was going through it myself.
Now, I help women recognize where they’ve abandoned themselves, reclaim the parts they’ve kept hidden in the shadows, and create a next chapter that reflects who they actually are and what they genuinely want.
My Mission Is To
My mission is to help women stop abandoning themselves, find their voice, reclaim the parts of who they are that they’ve kept in the shadows, and build lives rooted in self-trust, healthy boundaries, and the freedom to choose themselves.
