When Performance Stops Working: The One-Day Reset Built for High-Level Leaders

You’ve built everything on performance.
Clarity. Drive. Systems. Execution. You’ve led teams, scaled companies, managed decisions that would paralyze most people. But recently, something’s shifted.
The edges are harder to hold. The clarity isn’t there. The moves you used to make without hesitation now feel heavier. The version of you that got you here? It’s still functioning—but just barely.
This isn’t burnout. It’s not imposter syndrome. It’s not a motivational issue.
It’s structural. And it won’t be fixed with a mindset shift.
Welcome to the threshold.
There comes a point in high-performance leadership where what you’ve built begins to turn against you. The very identity that made you effective becomes the thing preventing you from evolving.
This moment is rare. Most leaders never name it. Fewer know what to do with it.
But if you’re here, reading this, then the structure of your internal operating system is already starting to break.
And you know it.
The Strategic Reset Intensive
This isn’t coaching. This isn’t therapy. And this isn’t a workshop.
This is a one-day, one-on-one, in-person structural reset designed for high-level individuals who are ready to dismantle a single core identity loop and return to a zero-state:
Clear. Grounded. Narrative-free. Structurally aligned.
It’s not about improving your current system. It’s about ending the one that no longer works—and building something real in its place.
What You’ll Experience
Pre-Intensive Calibration: Remote structural mapping of your readiness, fracture point, and identity vector.
Full-Day Private Immersion: 8–10 hours of direct work with Don Gaconnet. In person. No distractions. No performance.
Live Pattern Collapse: Recursive mirroring, role disintegration, symbolic deconstruction of the system that holds you in place.
Cognitive + Somatic Realignment: Not just new insight, but a physically grounded, post-collapse structure to operate from.
Zero-State Brief: Within 72 hours, you receive a personalized operating map outlining what collapsed, what remains, and how to lead from what’s true.
Follow-Up Integration Call: Seven days later, we anchor the new pattern into clear, action-ready alignment.
Who This Is For
Leaders who are still functioning at a high level, but no longer feel coherent
Founders and visionaries silently navigating internal breakdown beneath visible success
Executives with decision fatigue, gridlock, or narrative distortion
Individuals who know they’re done performing a version of themselves that no longer fits

When the Next Step Isn’t Clear, Map the System That Got You Here.
Overview
This is a 75-minute private clarity session designed to help high-functioning leaders understand the real architecture behind their current challenge.
It’s not performance consulting. It’s not a pep talk. It’s a structural audit—focused on surfacing one key area of internal misalignment.
This is for individuals who are:
– Facing quiet transition– Stuck in decision fatigue– Performing well but unsure why it doesn’t feel clear anymore– Sensing that what’s next can’t come from who they’ve been
What’s Included
– Real-time mapping of your identity architecture in one domain– Pattern exposure: Where coherence is missing, and why– Optional friction-point identification for future reset– Light symbolic mirroring to surface the real question underneath the current challenge– Clear next-step options: retain, realign, or release
You’ll leave this session with a concrete, non-performative clarity map—showing you exactly what’s driving the noise, where structure is failing, and how to proceed without losing yourself in the process.
Fee & Format
Format: 1:1 Live via Zoom or in person (where applicable)
Duration: 75 minutes
Fee: $650 USD
Includes optional written clarity brief (PDF) delivered within 48 hours
Why It Exists
Not everyone is ready for full structural reset. But many leaders know they can’t just keep solving the surface problem.
This session is built for that space.
You don’t need collapse to start listening. You just need to stop pretending clarity comes from pushing harder.
This isn’t about burnout. It’s about identity collapse—and the emergence of something more real.
How It The Full Reset Day Works:
Location: In-person only. Location arranged by you or coordinated with the field.
Duration: One full day (8–10 hours, including integration time)
Investment: $10,000 USD + travel
Includes: Calibration, full-day reset, post-reset brief, and follow-up alignment session
This work is not offered virtually. Collapse requires live containment. And you won’t be the same after.
If you’ve reached the threshold, you already know this is what you’ve been circling around.
Now there’s a place to stop circling.
