THE SIX-MONTH MASTERMIND WITH NICOLETTE VAN BREE / THE CURIOUS REBEL
F*CK BEING FRAZZLED
Scale doesn't fail at the strategy layer.
It fails at the ambition of your nervous system.
The six-month mastermind that expands the capacity underneath your business — so growing it stops costing you your freedom.
— No spinning more plates. No feeling further behind.

EVERYONE IN YOUR INBOX IS SELLING YOU THE NEXT LEVEL.
NOBODY IS ASKING WHETHER YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM CAN SURVIVE GETTING THERE.
Scaling isn't a walk in the park in your beige best jumpsuit.
It's a head fuck.
It's learning every job in the business and being expert at all of them, whilst being the CEO of everyone else's life.
It's the launch you're already anxious about whilst still in the lurgy from the last one. The 11:38pm Slack message. The book by your bed since March.
It's scaling on the same nervous system that told you you weren't great at English, scraped through your GCSEs, that your skirt was too short, and still wonders if the popular girl from school is reading your Instagram.
The harder you push, the harder the push feels.
And it's reading this — and feeling a bit exposed.
That's exactly why I built F*ck Being Frazzled.
Because I've spent years getting to the other side of this, and I can tell you, it isn't calmer because you finally slowed down.
It's calmer because your capacity caught up. That's the bit nobody builds for you.

"I am now more calm, grounded and feel a sense of ease in my body. Who'd have thought this shift could be created with breath and nervous system work."
— Former ClientWHAT YOU WALK AWAY WITH.
Stop being the woman who's the bottleneck in her business. Fortnightly group calls, built around what's actually getting in the way — practice, teaching, hot seats. Personalised support on exactly where you're stuck, not generic advice.
Stop carrying every unanswered question into Sunday night at 9:27pm. Quick-fire questions twice a week, so you close the loop in real time, not at 2am in a thread that keeps you stalling all week. Built for women who think on their feet.
Stop running this solo in your own head. A Circle community built for how wildly capable women actually process — private Monday check-ins where you tell me the truth, public Friday wins where it lands for the room. No spiritual bypassing. No white-knuckling. No "just make the time."
Stop skipping yourself when dishing out the commitment tokens. A space where calming harder isn't the answer — where you get to strategically nourish your nervous system instead of being told to "talk to the hand." Step into the level waiting for you. Not just in your business — in you.
Stop applying strategy and mindset solutions to capacity problems. The Capacity Model — three phases that finally work at the layer of your nervous system. No holding more, no hustling harder through launches, no waiting for life to quieten down — because it isn't going to.
AND ONE MORE THING.
Your whole life you've been asked to handle more, hold more, do more.
Nobody taught you how to flourish whilst doing it.
Nobody gave you the layer underneath.
That ends now.
The box was never for you. And linear was way off track.

THIS IS NOT A PROGRAMME YOU CAN SHELVE.
THIS IS A COURSE YOU PARTICIPATE IN.
You're in for six months. Not because I'm being precious — because the work happens in the order it happens.
You can't cancel after a hard week. You can't quietly ghost when life gets noisy. You can't skip the bits that feel uncomfortable.
The months you most want to opt out are the months that change things.
So yes — you're in for the whole six. Because that's the work.
"My Whoop data has significantly improved and I know the direction I’m going in my business. I feel a whole new person."
— Former ClientSIX MONTHS. THREE PHASES. ONE PURPOSE
THE CAPACITY MODEL
— to expand the nervous system capacity underneath the business you're scaling, so growth costs you less and gives you more.
01.
LAND
Reduce the noise. Read the signal. Restore the rhythms.
Where the volume comes down enough that you can finally hear what your body's been telling you.
02.
EXPAND
Regulate the response. Retrain the breath. Build the threshold. Where the work goes from I'm doing the practice to the practice is doing the work.
03.
LIVE
— months 5-6 Run from the base. Hold under load. Compound the capacity. Where the work stops being a programme — and becomes a posture.

ABOUT NICOLETTE
Hi, I'm Nic — breath and nervous system strategist, founder of The Curious Rebel, cheesecake skeptic, and the person who'll notice the week you go quiet in the Circle. And gently ask why.
Following the thread from movement, into stress resilience, into breath science, into the nervous system, and into physiology itself. Even with a Double-D in GCSE science — I know, right.
I've spent years helping wildly capable women ditch the load quietly eroding them, and expand their nervous system capacity to catch up with the ambition only they can hold. I believe your nervous system capacity is your most powerful expansive opportunity — and that most female founders are calming harder, not living louder.
I built F*ck Being Frazzled because I'm tired of seeing women overworked and overlooked. I wanted to create something that makes real change — change that feels good, that overflows from them into their life, their business, their scale, their impact, their purpose. Without the burnout.
Not another chore on an already extensive list. Not something you dread. Something you actually feel changing you, compounding every single week.
I wanted it to be simple, actually used — not just consumed and shelved — and importantly, AN ABSOLUTE F*CKING VIBE.
Across recent clients:
Perceived stress scores dropping ⬇️ by 40-60%. General wellbeing scores rising ⬆️ 25-30%.
Subjective shifts reported: better sleep, breath function returning, more capacity for both work and life.
"Reduced my stress by over 50% — I now have the energy and focus to excel at work and connect with my family."
IS THIS YOU?
This IS for you if…
You're scaling something real and starting to suspect the body is paying for it
You've done the mindset work, the strategy work, the wellness work — and something underneath them hasn't shifted
You're done being told to calm harder
You're wildly capable, mid-build, and quietly aware that the way you're running isn't sustainable
This is NOT for you if…
You want a programme to consume on weekends and forget about
You're looking for someone to slow you down or tell you to rest more
You want a quick fix or a one-off intensive
You're not willing to be in a room with women who'll witness you mid-build
You're in active clinical crisis — that's important work, but it's not group work

Because you're probably wondering
Still have questions? Take a look at the FAQ or reach out anytime.
-
Not as much as you think. The daily practice starts at five minutes. Group calls are fortnightly. Recordings, transcripts and notes are available. Quick-Fire questions are answered between Tuesday and Thursday — bring a question and close the loop.
If you genuinely can't find two minutes in your week right now, that's the reason to start, not the reason to wait. We work with what you've got, and the time you don't have today becomes the time you do.
-
Because you haven't tried this.
You've tried mindset work, strategy work, wellness apps, retreats. They all helped — and they all stopped, because they were working on top of a layer nobody had built.
F*ck Being Frazzled builds that layer. It's not another version of what you've tried. It's the thing the other things were depending on.
-
Yes. That's the entire point.
The course is built around the assumption that your ambition is to scale — not pausing to recover. Most women launch, deliver, sell and grow during the six months. Many do it better, because the decisions stop being adrenaline-driven.
If you need to pause your business to do this work, this isn't the right programme. This is the work that runs alongside the scale.
-
Standard gives you the full programme — everything you need to do the work.
VIP adds three things: a monthly hot-seat VIP mastermind, one mid-course review where I review your specific progression in depth, and a 1:1 intake call to land you properly from day one.
VIP places per cohort are restricted in availability. They go first.
-
The pre-enrolment intake is honest in both directions.
If you're in active crisis or managing a diagnosed condition that needs one-to-one therapeutic care, group work isn't the right container for where you are right now. We'll tell you, and point you somewhere better suited.
If you're functioning and exhausted, scaling and paying for it — you're exactly who this is built for.
You don't get this far to only come this far.
The woman who built what you've built doesn't tap out at the ceiling she's currently knocking against. She builds the layer underneath it and goes again.
That's who you came here to be.
Who She Is on the Other Side
She runs her business from capacity. She makes decisions from quiet, not urgency. She doesn't perform fine. She is fine — and when she's not, she knows what her body is asking for without having to Google it.
She launches without bracing through it. She rests without negotiating with herself first. She holds her clients without leaking herself out the back of every session.
She has time in her week she didn't think existed. She picks the book back up. She says I'm great, actually — and means it.
She's still wildly ambitious. She's still the woman who builds things. She just doesn't pay for it with her body anymore.
She is who you already are, underneath the load you've been carrying for a decade.
The Last Quiet Question
But what if it doesn't work for me?
If you genuinely don't have five minutes in your day right now — that's the reason to start today. We don't ask you for five. We start with two. And the two minutes you don't have becomes the ten minutes you do.
That's not motivation. That's mechanism.
You're not the risk here. The only risk is staying where you are and calling it a season for the third year running.
