the life lab

create a calmer brain, starting with the life you have.


Less Hustle. More Joy.
A New Way of Being.

You’ve spent years pushing, perfecting, and problem-solving your way through life.

You’ve read the books, taken the courses, and tried all the strategies—yet the stress, self-doubt, and overwhelm keep coming back.

It’s not because you’re not trying hard enough. It’s because the old way of doing things was never built to last.

💡 You don’t need more strategies. You need a new way of being.

What If Letting Go of Hustle Gave You More of What You Want?

More clarity. More confidence. More success. More meaningful relationships. More ease.


❌ This is NOT about lowering your standards.
✅ This is about finally learning how to work with yourself so you can reach your goals—without self-sabotage, burnout, or stress ruling your life.

Welcome to The Life Lab—a year-long coaching container that rewires the way you think, feel, and show up in your life.

the life lab

combining cognitive science, ancient wisdom, and universal laws to help you heal, change, and thrive

What If…?

✔️ You could wake up feeling calm and clear-headed, instead of anxious and already behind?
✔️ You could trust yourself to follow through—not out of guilt, but because it feels good to take action?
✔️ You could finally feel present and connected with the people in your life, without your mind racing?
✔️ You could achieve more in less time—not by pushing harder, but by making aligned decisions with ease?

The Life Lab isn’t about doing less—it’s about doing differently.
So you don’t have to choose between success and peace—you get both

the life lab is for:

This is for intelligent, high-achieving women in those middle decades of life who are:
✔️ Tired of the endless cycle of stress, self-criticism, and burnout
✔️ Ready to stop relying on willpower, force, or perfectionism to get through life
✔️ Craving a life that feels calm, joyful, and deeply aligned—but unsure how to actually get there
✔️ Willing to approach growth in a way that works with their brain and nervous system (not against it)

The Truth About The Life You Want

Most high-achieving women fear that if they stop pushing, they’ll lose momentum.

But what if the stress, overthinking, and self-doubt have actually been holding you back?

🧠 Your nervous system isn’t designed to thrive in hustle mode forever.
And you don’t have to. There’s a different way—a way that feels calm, steady, and sustainable.

There's a part of your brain that wants to stay the same- and that's why changing how you are and feel day to day can feel so hard. But change is possible

The Life Lab is that way.

What you'll experience

The Life Lab isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about lasting transformation.
Through a proven four-step process, you’ll learn how to

✨ Recenter Your Priorities – Get clear on what you actually want (beyond society’s expectations) and build emotional safety before making changes.

✨ Observe Your Mind & Patterns – Learn how to work with your brain, shift beliefs, and notice self-sabotage without judgment.

✨ Reset Your Brain for Change – Let go of outdated thought patterns, trust your own wisdom, and build new supportive beliefs that feel natural.

✨ Rewire for Calm, Confidence & Joy – Take aligned action from a place of self-trust (not pressure) and create sustainable, joyful progress.

Cecelia Mandryk

I'm a coach, teacher, writer, and fellow human and I help brilliant, hardworking humans like you slow down, get present, and finally stop chasing the “hologram carrot” of achievement … so they create a more peaceful life while honoring their gifts, drive, and abilities at the same time. 

My work has helped thousands of people all over the world… and I’d love to help you next. Leverage my education, experience, and expertise, and let’s change the anxious, always-busy tape that’s playing inside your head forever .

Feedback 

It is because of you and our group that I can do that (work with myself) with love and compassion and kindness. This is all very new and I sometimes don’t realize that I am seeing things differently. I am amazed by how much I have grown and all of the tools that have become part of my process.
Client R
Trying this felt a bit risky but I felt so stuck. (I have) Much more awareness of my thoughts and the stories I have in my head. A sense of moving towards where I want to be, feeling less stuck where I was. I am so happy I joined. You are doing such a fab job - just please keep on doing it! : )
Client K
I found the group setting to be really helpful- seeing and hearing others whose experiences mirrored my own. Cecelia is a great facilitator who knows how to guide in a thought provoking way that doesn’t make you feel ashamed or inadequate.
Client J
The group was a very insightful and supportive experience. I started it thinking that I knew exactly what I needed to address in my life. And ended realizing that it was a bandaid to alleviate what needed sorting underneath. The tools that Cecelia provides are ones that clicked, offered clarity, and helped to get me out of my head. I learned so much from the other woman on the calls as well all over the world and feel less alone in my humanness.
Client Z
Cecelia's work is powerful. Instead of giving techniques that work once or twice to power through procrastination and self sabotage, she helps you understand the thoughts that create the feelings that create the actions that you're taking. Instead of powering through, she teaches you awareness. Her gentle approach is more effective than the dozens of self help books I've read.
Client K
I can't say thank you enough. This work has deeply impacted my perosn life and how I relate to myself AND it's shifted how I show up as a doctor. It's helped me see how I want to show up for my patients. And I'll say that while I can see what you're doing as a coach, I cannot do it myself. This support is invaluable.
