F*CK BEING
THE SIX-MONTH MASTERMIND WITH NICOLETTE VAN BREE
Growth doesn't fail at the strategy layer.
It stalls at the capacity of your nervous system.
The six-month mastermind for female founders that expands the capacity of the system underneath the business, and the life that needs you
— so you can grow without burning out and with the personal freedom you built it for.
No more self doubt, blocked by your own blocks or feeling further behind.
The best investment you'll make in your growth this year isn't another strategy.
(for the priority access to the Sept cohort with the lowest investment)
EVERYONE IN YOUR INBOX IS SELLING YOU THE NEXT LEVEL.
NOBODY IS ASKING WHETHER YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM HAS THE CAPACITY TO GET YOU THERE.
Growth isn't a walk in the park in your best beige jumpsuit. It's a head fuck.
It's learning in every moment, in the business and in being expert at all of them, whilst also the CEO of family operations.
It's the launch you're already anxious about whilst still carrying the lurgy from the last one. The 11:38pm Slack message. The book by your bed since March.
It's growth on the same nervous system that was once told you weren't great at English, whos head went down reading out in class, that braces receiving the phone call from school, while holding a to-do list that spreads multiple swipes. And still wonders if the popular girl from school is being judgy about your Instagram.
It's growing on a system that's been at capacity since long before the business existed — the one that's been holding everything, for everyone, for years, and was never shown how to hold what you're now asking of it.
The harder you push, the harder the push feels.
You've solved harder problems than this one. That's what's getting to you. Because if you can't solve this, with everything you've got — what does that say about the one thing you've always trusted? Your own competence.
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 fun because your capacity caught up. That's the bit nobody showed you how to build.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT.
ONE
No more feeling like your the bottleneck anymore. The mystery you’ve spent years searching for, revealed. With the exact model to expand the capacity and fortnightly group calls, built around what's actually getting in your way — practice, teaching, curated questions. Not generic advice. Not a queue for the microphone. The questions that come to the room are the ones the room needs.
TWO
You’ll stop spinning every unanswered question into Sunday night at 9:27pm. Office Hours, twice a week. Defined windows where you put the thing down when you think it and it gets read by me. Properly. Not a hack found in your scrolling but a place when the loop stops circling, and that helps you close it.
THREE
Running it solo while second-guessing whether you’ve picked the right solutions ends here. A Circle community built for how wildly capable women actually process. Private Monday check-in. Public Friday noticing thread. No scoreboard or streak count. No spiritual bypassing. No white-knuckling. No "just make the time.
FOUR
You become That Woman. The one you're building all of it for. Where calming harder isn't the answer — where you expand the capacity underneath instead of overriding it.
FIVE
We work with the layer that matters most so you stop using valuable time and energy at the wrong level — strategy and mindset solutions to capacity problems. The Capacity Model, four phases that work underneath the strategy and the mindset. No holding more, no hustling harder through launches, no waiting for life to quieten down, because it isn't going to.
"My Whoop data has significantly improved and I know the direction I’m going in my business. I feel a whole new person."
— Former ClientONE MORE THING.
Your whole life you've been told to handle more, hold more, do more.
But growth for what matters most means creating space for purpose, wellbeing and freedom alongside — expansion. Because long-term success should not come at the expense of the woman building it.
Nobody taught you how to flourish whilst doing it.
Nobody gave you the layer underneath.
That ends now.
(for the priority access to the Sept cohort with the lowest investment)
SIX MONTHS. FOUR PHASES. ONE PURPOSE.
THE CAPACITY MODEL
You don't need to calm down. You don't need work harder.
— growing the capacity and resilience of the nervous system underneath to trust in your own way of doing things, whose kids call fun & run a business that lights you up with capacity to spare.
01.
BASE
You can't build on empty.
We drop the noise, restore the rhythms, and get the system back to baseline — in the business and in life, because the exhaustion was never just about the launches.
This is where the volume comes down enough that you can finally hear what your body's been telling you since about 2009.
02.
TUNE
The signal comes back; you tune back into yourself.
You learn to read your own data instead of bracing against every sensation — the heart-rate before the discovery call and the one before the parents' evening. Same system, both rooms.
The base starts to grow, because stress met and recovered from is how it grows.
03.
AMPLIFY
You turn it up and the base holds it.
Where the work goes from I'm doing the practice to the practice is doing the work. The launch week and the school holidays and the body that used to give out in the middle of both — they land on a system that doesn't buckle under them.
Same load. Nothing like the same cost. Not managing it. Meeting it.
04.
PLAY
This is where the six months points you.
Not a module. Not a finish line you cross in month six. It's what BASE, TUNE and AMPLIFY are for — and it's how you run afterwards.
Play from the base. Present in the launch and at the school gate, at your desk and at 6pm when everyone needs you at once. Recovering faster, no longer bracing for the drop. Where the work stops being something you do and becomes the way you're present — in the business, at home, and in your own skin.
Not controlling it all. Living it.

ABOUT NICOLETTE
Hi, I'm Nic — breath and nervous system strategist, founder of The Curious Rebel, cheesecake sceptic, and the person who'll notice the week you go quiet in the Circle. And gently ask why.
I followed the thread from movement into stress resilience, breath science into the nervous system, and into physiology itself.
I've spent years helping wildly capable women expand the internal capacity underneath their ambition — so they stop overriding themselves to keep growing. Your nervous system base is your most powerful expansive opportunity. And yet 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 impact, their purpose.
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.
"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 ClientIS THIS YOU?
This IS for you if…
You're growing something real and you're done overriding yourself to keep it growing
You've done the mindset work, the strategy work, the wellness work — and something underneath them hasn't shifted
You're running a business and a life that needs you more than most, on one nervous system
You want the fun back — the adventures, the daft ideas, the being properly there for it — not just a diary you survive
You're done being told to calm harder
You're wildly capable, 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, walking their path with you.
You're in active clinical crisis — that's important work, but it's not group work
THIS IS NOT ANOTHER PROGRAMME YOU’LL WANT TO SHELVE.
THIS IS A MASTERMIND YOU PARTICIPATE IN.
You're in for six months. Not because I'm being precious — because the work happens in the order it happens.
And you won't be guessing your way through it. You'll know exactly what you're doing, why you're doing it, and what's next — in the order your system can actually take it. No picking from a library. No wondering if you're on the right module. No building your own plan on top of everything else you're already holding.
Then life will land. A launch, a lurgy, a child who needs you, a week that goes sideways. It always does — that's the one guarantee any of us can count on.
That isn't the programme going wrong. That's the whole point of it. This is built for a real life, not a clear diary — because a base you can only maintain when things are quiet was never going to hold you. The weeks that knock you sideways are the weeks the work is actually for.
So the structure holds and the pace bends. You can't cancel after a hard week. You can't quietly ghost when it 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.
You're in for the whole six. Because that's the work.

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE SIX MONTHS
guided, no guessing, life-proof
F*CK BEING FRAZZLED
The FBF Curriculum Nine adaptive modules. Short, clear trainings that walk you through The Capacity Model step by step. Exactly what to do, how, and why — in the order you need to know it. Audio, video and PDFs designed to fit in the gaps of a full life.
Fortnightly Group Calls Curated, facilitated sessions designed around what's actually getting in the way. Curated questions, teaching, practice. Recordings, transcripts and session notes available.
Office Hours Twice a week. Defined windows. You drop the thing you're carrying and it gets read — by me, properly. Because the loop that keeps you up usually isn't a question waiting on an answer. It's a thing you haven't let yourself notice yet.
The Circle Community Private check-ins. Private Monday check-in. Public Friday noticing thread. Cross-phase. Designed for women who are here for momentum and don't want to lurk.
The Welcome Walkthrough Landing into the cohort so you know exactly where to start, what to focus on first, and what to leave for later.
VIP — limited places per cohort
Everything in Standard, plus three things that change the pace:
Monthly VIP Hot-Seat Mastermind smaller, more intimate sessions alongside the main group calls. Deeper access, closer feedback, focused strategic work that moves things faster. Hot seats live here. They are not in the main calls.
Mid-Review I look at your specific progression in depth and tell you exactly what's next.
1:1 Intake Call so we land you properly into the structure from day one.

On the money.
You've already spent this. Probably more. On the course, the coach, the retreat, the app you still pay for. On strategy that assumed you had the capacity to execute it — and then quietly blamed you when you didn't.
This is the layer underneath all of it. The one nobody sold you.
14-day refund available if you haven't accessed the mastermind course material. Full terms at checkout.

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 scaling something real and ready to expand the bandwidth underneath it — you're exactly who this is built for.
-
Here's the truth: you're not the risk. You've already proven you'll do the work — you've been doing it for years, on a base nobody ever built for you.
The only risk is staying exactly where you are and calling it a season for the third year running.
I'm going to be straight, because you'd want me to be. This works on women who show up and do the work. It does not work on women who join, half-watch two modules, go quiet in week five and decide it wasn't for them.
You get 14 days to change your mind before you've opened the material. After that, you're in. Not because I'm holding you hostage — because the months you most want to opt out are the months that change things, and I'm not building an escape hatch into the exact place the work happens.
Join if you mean it. Then stay and do it.
That's the deal.
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 capacity underneath it and goes again.
That's who you came here to be.
Who She Is on the Other Side
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 trusts her own way of doing things. Her kids call her fun. She says yes to the trip and is actually there for it. She runs a business that lights her up — with capacity to spare.
She isn't a different woman. She's who you already are, underneath the load you've been carrying for decades.
