You were born with a highly gifted brain.


This occurs in less than 2% of the population.


It comes with many benefits. You are probably already aware of at least some of these.


You probably just think of it as the grease that skids the wheels for where you're going.

It also comes with mechanisms that have locked you into a perpetual loop, of which you are less likely to be aware.


The typical life path of a highly gifted person looks like this repeating closed-loop cycle:

  • Identifying the new “BIG” thing (business/job/art form/project)

  • Building it out (may involve new skills learning phase)

  • SUCCESS (Land the Goal)

  • Celebrate (this lasts way shorter than you would expect)

  • Let Down (the thing wasn’t actually THE THING you felt it would be regardless of every external metric validating the success, you feel dissatisfied or bored or… something existentially unsatisfying)

  • Start working up new BIG thing

  • Building it out… REPEAT


You’ll go through as many of these as it takes in your life to get to THE THING.


Because that is what your particular brain type drives you ruthlessly toward.


It was designed to do precisely that.

None of the successes, however you are defining them, satisfy the inner drive, the relentless itch.


You might think of it as being about “meeting your true potential,” a phrase tossed around a lot when we are young, but never explained and usually used as a stand-in for what others think we should be doing/being/creating.


You’ve tried all sorts of things. Excellent things. Proven things like productivity systems. Flow teachings. Trauma resolution. High end consultants. Executive and career coaching. Trying new jobs. New industries. Grad school. Maybe even more grad school but in a different field. Moving to a new location. Break ups. Marrying. Having children. Getting a pet. Decluttering. The Artist’s Way. Morning pages. Dietary changes. Working out. Yoga. Vipassana. 


You’ve maybe even tried less proven but popular things. Bro gurus. Burning Man. “Plant medicine.” Prescription drugs. Cutting edge peptides. Sabbaticals. 


You’ve definitely fallen at times into some actively useless things. Netflix binging. Letting the dishes pile up. Mysterious medical maladies. Alcohol and/or drug abuse. Eating disorders.


Most of these, on their own, can be great when applied to the correct context and situation. (but let's always pass on medical mysteries, substance abuse, and eating disorders? I hope so!)


YOUR GIFTED BRAIN NEEDS SOMETHING DIFFERENT.


You ARE DIFFERENT.


These are things generally created for the majority of people in the bell curve. And many of them may be super critical to your own well being.

But they won’t unlock and liberate your true gifted brain joy.

It’s treating your Maserati racing car brain like a Toyota Camry. Nothing wrong with the most reliable car in the market.

But your brain will buck and rebel under those constraints all day long and every day until the end of time. 


Your brain is like the thoroughbred horse that only wants to run the very best races. It has zero interest in being hooked up to a plow and used to till the fields. Nothing against the beautiful fields and the vital work of tending the fields.


It’s just NOT WHAT YOU WERE DESIGNED TO BE.


You were designed to run those outlandish races. 


To win the triple crown. 


To dial in the cornering so precisely, you shave an extra few precious seconds off your time while the other cars get sloppy and loose at the turn.


You know all about those sloppy loose turns, though. You have definitely been there.


And sure, coming in second is awesome, right? Absolutely something to be proud of.

But The Outlier is only racing against themselves... and coming in second to your own potential SUCKS HARD.


It just does. 🤷🏻‍♀️


Everybody around you just sees the success, the accolades, the many actual blue ribbons and gold statues, but you still have that feeling, every time life hands you another hard-won win, that you somehow only placed second.


ENOUGH.


It’s time to liberate your big, beautiful brain, to teach yourself exactly how to give it the best races for it to run, how to let go of the reins at the right moment, and when to pull back.


This is what my Fundamentals of the Highly Gifted Brain is for.


It’s the operating manual for your brain that you never had.

It’s not your fault, you had to raise yourself after all, no matter how loving your childhood was, no matter how caring and competent your teachers were, no matter how lucky you were in finding mentors, the particular and highly nuanced facets of these rare less than 2% brains just aren’t well understood. Most people don’t care to study something so far off the beaten track. 


But now you know.


I’ve got you. You’re here now. This is the final tweak you’ve been searching for.


And instead of a tweak, it’ll turn out to be a radical, seismic shift of global proportions that delivers you into living your life in a version of technicolor you didn’t even know was an option.

And guess what? It’s just in the nick of time. Because the world is in trouble and needs you to be running your wild and beautiful races at least as much as you need and deserve to experience them.

I’ve distilled tens of thousands of live hours with Outliers like you and me and decades of study into this diamond so that it can spread easily and be shared widely without costing the tens of thousands it has cost my private clients over the years to liberate their brains and shift into a true Outlier lifestyle that perfectly meets all their needs and dreams.

Hi, I'm Melanie.

I believe living in true joy is your birthright.

Restoring joy to those with a highly gifted brain requires a different path than what works for the other 98%.

What we crave most deeply is to fully experience clarity about our own true potential in this life and then witness ourselves contributing that potential to the whole, to the world.
