At a certain level of leadership, strategy is no longer the primary constraint.
Internal regulation is.
Persistent urgency.
Invisible pressure.
Over-functioning.
Success sustained through effort rather than stability.
These patterns are not personality traits. They are learned nervous system responses.
The Labs are designed to help recalibrate them.
Live. Small cohort. Guided directly by Dr. Julie Lopez.
A Depth of Experience Rarely Accessible Outside Clinical Settings
Dr. Julie brings more than 30 years of clinical experience in stress physiology, attachment science, and behavioral change.
Her work integrates:
- Neurophysiology of stress and performance
- Implicit memory restructuring
- Trauma-informed regulation science
- Applied relational neurobiology
This is not traditional coaching.
It is a nervous system recalibration translated for high-functioning leaders.
Dr. Julie also serves as an Inner Fitness expert at Rancho La Puerta, supporting high-capacity individuals seeking sustainable performance and relational stability.
What Happens Inside the Lab
Participants engage in applied work to:
- Identify dominant regulatory patterns
- Interrupt unconscious stress responses
- Experience guided nervous system resets
- Develop repeatable self-regulation practices
- Recognize and shift dysregulation in others
This is hands-on capability development.
You leave not only more regulated but better equipped to create regulation in real-time environments.
These skills transfer directly into leadership, family systems, and high-stakes decision-making.
What Visionaries Are Saying
Ron Sitrin
Team Lead, Long and Foster
"I struggled with writer’s block for six months, which was unusual since I love creating marketing materials. Within two days of attending Dr. Julie’s session, doing the exercises, and following her suggestions, a flurry of new ideas surfaced, and I’m back to creating. This stuff really works!"
Joleen Collins Darragh
Founder/CEO, Architect, Southview Studios
"I feel like I’ve discovered a superpower I’ve had all along, I just didn’t know how to listen to it. The program brought this to life, showing me how my system gives me real clues about what’s best. Now I can apply these tools to my life and even help friends do the same."
Shelly Finkel
President at The Swag Diva
“Feeling so much more self-aware, with less stress and inflammation, has had a direct, positive impact on my fibromyalgia, which has drastically improved! It's like a miracle! Dr. Julie always says, ‘It feels like a miracle, but it's science.’ This program showed me how to take control of my health and well-being.”

The Labs are designed for individuals who:
- Carry significant responsibility for people and outcomes
- Appreciate depth and practical precision
- Are ready for meaningful internal change
This is not therapy.
Not executive coaching.
Not traditional personal development.
It is a selective, science-backed learning environment for leaders, grounded in Dr. Julie’s clinical expertise.
Outcomes Commonly Observed

- Reduced internal pressure without reducing ambition
- Increased decisional clarity under stress
- Measurable improvement in relational dynamics
- Faster recovery from activation
