Your income is below your actual worth. That gap is neurological.
In one session, we identify the specific neural pattern keeping your income capped below what your experience, expertise, and track record actually command — and we clear it at the source.
You know what you're worth. Your nervous system disagrees.
You've built the career. You have the credentials. You've taken the courses on pricing, negotiation, and mindset. And yet — something still happens in the moment. A number you couldn't bring yourself to say. A raise you didn't ask for. An offer you discounted before they even pushed back.
That isn't a strategy problem. And it isn't a confidence problem. It's a pattern encoded in your nervous system — one that fires automatically, below conscious control, every time money is on the table.
- You know your market rate. Saying it out loud is another matter.
- You negotiate — then give back what you just won
- You receive a payment and feel compelled to justify it
- Peers with less experience charge more — and you can't explain why you don't
- You tell yourself the ceiling is external. Somewhere you know it isn't.
- The affirmations haven't moved it. The mindset work hasn't moved it.
"I've worked with over 4,000 people. The executives and entrepreneurs who stay below their worth aren't lacking strategy, credentials, or confidence. They have a specific neural pattern running — usually formed long before their career began — that sets a ceiling on what they're permitted to earn. Until you clear that foundational pattern, everything else is rearranging furniture."— Kristin Rivas, Brain-Based Executive Coach
What happens in your session
This isn't coaching. It isn't strategy. We're going directly to the neural architecture running your income ceiling — and we're updating it.
Money Story Excavation
The first 20 minutes map the specific pattern operating in your nervous system. Where it formed, how it expresses, why it's been invisible to every other intervention you've tried. You'll recognize it immediately — and finally have a name for what's been running.
The Clearing
45 minutes of targeted brain-based work using the ASI Merging into Expansion protocol. Not visualization. Not reframing. A neurological intervention that creates a measurable prediction error — the mechanism by which your brain actually updates a deeply encoded pattern.
Identity Integration
The final phase installs the new pattern — anchoring a nervous system identity that is congruent with your actual worth. The shift is somatic, not cognitive. You won't need to remember it. Your body will.
What this is. What it isn't.
This is not…
- Abundance mindset coaching or "manifest your worth" work
- A strategy session on pricing, negotiation, or positioning
- Talk therapy or trauma processing
- Motivation, accountability, or action planning
- Something that requires you to understand it for it to work
- A slow process — this is one session, one targeted shift
This is…
- A brain-based intervention targeting the subconscious pattern directly
- The same methodology Kristin uses with C-suite executives and high-revenue entrepreneurs in her 1:1 practice
- Grounded in neuroscience, not philosophy — prediction error, limbic update, somatic anchoring
- Work that operates below language and intention — where the pattern actually lives
- Conducted via Zoom, fully private, no travel required
- A beginning — one session that creates the opening for everything else to shift
Is this session for you?
This is for you if…
- You're a VP, C-suite executive, or high-revenue entrepreneur with a measurable gap between your income and your actual market value
- You've done the mindset work, taken the courses, understand the patterns intellectually — and the ceiling is still there
- You've had moments where you physically couldn't say a number, ask for what you're worth, or you give more than you charge, extend beyond scope, and absorb costs your contract didn't include — not from generosity, but because something compels you to earn what you've already been paid
- You're open to the idea that this is a body problem, not a thinking problem
- You're ready to address the source, not manage the symptom
This is not for you if…
- You're looking for pricing strategy, salary negotiation scripts, or market positioning advice
- You believe the ceiling is entirely external — the economy, your industry, your employer
- You're not willing to look at what's actually running beneath the surface
- You want someone to do the work for you — presence and engagement are required
- You're skeptical of the mind-body connection and unwilling to entertain it even temporarily
Why this works
Her methodology sits at the intersection of clinical hypnotherapy, neuroscience, and executive performance. She's worked with over 4,000 clients — VPs, C-suite executives, founders, and high-revenue entrepreneurs — on the specific patterns that don't respond to strategy, therapy, or mindset work alone.
She's certified by Amen Clinics in brain-based therapeutic methods. Her TEDx talk on the subconscious patterns underneath human behavior has been viewed over 1.6 million times. Her 1:1 practice focuses specifically on the neural architectures that create invisible ceilings — in income, visibility, and self-worth.
The Breakthrough Session is a concentrated version of the work she does with her highest-level clients, designed to create a measurable shift in a single intensive.

Honest answers before you book
Yes — clinical hypnotherapy, not stage hypnosis. You're aware and in control the entire time. Think of it as a focused, brain-based intervention that accesses the subconscious patterns driving your behavior below the level of conscious thought. It's not relaxation. It's not suggestion. It's a neurological update to a specific encoded pattern.
Coaching gives you strategies and frameworks. Therapy helps you understand the origin of your patterns. Both work at the level of conscious thought and narrative. This works below that — at the level of the pattern itself. Most clients who come to Kristin have already done significant coaching and therapy. They understand their patterns completely. The ceiling is still there. That's the specific gap this work is designed to close.
Mindset work operates at the prefrontal cortex — the conscious, rational brain. Money patterns are encoded in the limbic system, which operates below language and intention. Affirmations, journaling, and cognitive reframing don't have access to where the pattern actually lives. This methodology does. That's the fundamental difference — not philosophy, mechanism.
Skepticism is welcome and doesn't interfere with the work. You don't have to believe it for it to function — the nervous system responds to the process regardless of your intellectual position on it. The only thing that limits the work is refusing to engage with it at all. Skeptics who show up fully tend to be the most surprised by what shifts.
The most common shift clients report: a different feeling in the body when money is on the table — less contraction, less urgency to discount or justify. Pricing conversations that feel different. An embodied confidence with their own worth. Some clients notice this immediately; for others it unfolds over 1–2 weeks as the subconscious integrates the session. No guarantees — anyone who promises a specific outcome is lying. What Kristin can promise: 16 years of experience to guide you through getting the best results possible in this breakthrough session and a recorded copy of the session to reenforce your results.
A private, quiet space where you won't be interrupted for 90 minutes. Headphones. Water. That's it. No prep work, no homework beforehand. Just show up. Kristin will guide the rest.
One session creates a real and measurable opening. For some clients, a single intensive is the shift they needed. For others, the Breakthrough Session is the beginning of a deeper engagement — they come back for additional work as new layers become visible. You'll know after the session what feels complete and what you want to continue expanding. There's no pressure to commit to anything beyond the session you book.
The gap between your income and your worth is closeable.
You've built everything that's supposed to make this easy. The credentials, the track record, the expertise. The ceiling isn't out there. One session to find it, name it, and clear it.
Show up fully, be open to the process, follow her guidance, and you will feel the shift. If you engage completely and notice nothing — reach out. Kristin is dedicated to your satisfaction. This isn't about managing symptoms. It's about clearing the source.
