THE UNKAGED™ YEAR-
Private Recovery and Wellness Coaching for High-Impact Black Women & Women of Color Who Are tired of holding it all together while falling apart inside.
You’ve built a life you can’t afford to burn out on. Let’s make sure you don’t.
Because you’re not broken. You’re just carrying more than your nervous system can handle. UNKAGED™ helps you put it down.
Reclaim your rhythm. Restore your capacity. Lead without losing yourself.
No pressure. Just a real conversation about where you are, what you need, and how I can support your next season.
WHO THIS IS FOR?
This is for you if you’re holding it all—but barely holding on.
-
You’re the strong one. The go-to. The backbone.
And you’re tired of pretending like that doesn’t cost you. -
You’ve achieved a lot—but you still don’t feel at home in the life you built.
-
You carry the pressure to lead, perform, succeed—and make it all look effortless.
-
You’ve tried therapy, mindset work, coaching, even rest—but the stress keeps leaking out sideways… in your body, your sleep, your relationships.
-
You want more impact, more joy, more peace—but your nervous system is saying, “not like this.”
-
You’re building a life you can’t afford to burn out on—and you’re ready for the support to actually live it.
If you're nodding your head or exhaling reading this—you already know. Let’s get you UNKAGED.
What Makes This Work When Nothing Else Has
You’ve tried trauma-informed.
You’ve tried executive coaching.
You’ve tried mindset work.
But nothing has ever held all of you at once.
🔘 We work with your nervous system—not just your mindset.
Because your stress response doesn’t start in your calendar—it starts in your body.
We recalibrate your rhythm so change isn’t just possible—it’s sustainable.
🔘 We use real frameworks—built for your lived experience.
The SAFER™ Method and the 5R Process are custom-coded for the brilliance, burden, and biology of high-impact Black women and WOC.
🔘 We expand capacity—not just productivity.
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters without sacrificing yourself in the process.
🔘 We don’t separate your stress into silos.
Work, relationships, and health are all connected.
We address the full ecosystem, because that’s how Black women actually live stress.
🔘 We don’t perform strength here. We redefine it.
No more proving. No more pushing through.
This is where strength becomes regulation—and rest becomes resistance. No more outsourcing your power to survival mode. You’ll lead from your center, not your exhaustion.
This is where regulation becomes your superpower.
The 3 Pillars of Stress We Actually Solve
Because your nervous system doesn’t know the difference between work stress, relationship stress, and metabolic stress—but we do.
🔧 Boss Your Werk
Reclaim your authority in the rooms you’ve had to prove yourself in.
No more grinding for validation.
💜 Nourish Your Love
Stop overgiving.
Stop underreceiving.
Stop shrinking to keep the peace.
Create relationships—including with yourself—that refuel you.
🔥 Fuel Your Health
You can’t mindset your way out of metabolic stress.
We regulate your body so you’re not carrying it all in your sleep, belly, or breath.
This Ain’t That Coaching
- You’ve done trauma-informed.
- You’ve done executive coaching.
- You’ve done the mindset work.
But none of them held all of you at once—your body, your brilliance, your boundaries, and your Blackness.
From Brig Johnson, Creator of the UNKAGED™ Method
A different kind of coaching. For a different kind of woman.
This Isn’t Available Anywhere Else.
Here’s what most coaching still looks like:
✖️ Hustle-heavy coaching that tells you to just "push through"? Oh, everywhere.
✖️ Trauma-informed spaces that still don’t get your cultural experience? Too many.
✖️ Corporate leadership programs that ignore how racism and patriarchy live in your nervous system? Yep. They’re out here.
But this? This is UNKAGED™ Coaching:
✅ Nervous system-first support
✅ Cultural clarity (you never have to code-switch to be coached)
✅ Structure and strategy that respects your rhythm
✅ Community care that doesn’t require overexposure
✅ Private coaching when you need depth
✅ Real tools, not recycled affirmations
This is where healing meets high performance.
This is where leadership doesn’t cost you your
life.
This is where strength stops being a
performance—and becomes regulation.

Why We Left the Time-Based Model Behind And What We’re Doing Instead (For Your Good)
You’ve done the “weekly for 6 months” thing.
And maybe you got something from it.
But let’s be real… life happened. You had to reschedule. You got sick. You took care of everybody else. And suddenly that expensive-ass coaching container felt like a race against time.
That’s not transformation. That’s pressure and frankly you've got enuff of that.
Inside The UNKAGED™ Year, we do it differently.
Because you don’t heal in linear timelines. You don’t rise by checking boxes. And your nervous system doesn’t know what month it is.
So we ditched the countdown clock and built something better.

A Flex Flow Coaching container where:
✅ You get 32 private sessions to use across a full year
✅ Your capacity sets the pace—not your coach’s calendar
✅ You’re supported in seasons of breakthrough and burnout
✅ You get structure without the squeeze
This isn’t leniency.
This is leadership rooted in regulation.
This is a model built for how high-impact women actually live.
This is the kind of structure your nervous system can actually exhale inside of.

Who’s Behind This Work
(and Why It Had to Be Me)
Founder of the UNKAGED™ Revolution & Creator of the SAFER™ Method
Brig Johnson
I didn’t just create another coaching program. I created a REVOLUTION.
Because borrowing tools from a system that never saw us? That ain’t freedom. That’s repackaged struggle. And I refuse to keep us stuck in shame spirals wrapped in prettier words.
I didn’t tweak what already existed. I BUILT THE KEY.
I burned the blueprint, cracked the code, and ripped the damn cage door off—for good. This ain’t about escaping for the weekend. This is about building lives that don’t require escape in the first place.
I’m Brig Johnson, Master Coach Instructor, Nurse Anesthesiologist, and the Black Woman Thrive Architect behind UNKAGED™. And I created this work because I lived it.
I built this work for the Black woman who keeps it all together while quietly falling apart.
For the ones who are high-achieving but over-functioning.
Who everyone leans on—but who barely has a second to breathe.
I watched brilliant women crash because no one taught them how to regulate, how to recover, how to reclaim their damn self. I didn’t just witness it. I was her.
After five years of coaching high-achieving Black women using the models I was trained in, I started noticing something. My clients weren’t broken—but the frameworks were. I’d wonder, “Why don’t I have that thought?” Or, “Why is my reaction so visceral to this?”
That’s when I stopped trying to force our lived experience into a mold that was never made for us—and started coaching in a way that actually worked for us. What emerged was an entirely new framework: culturally aware, not just trauma-informed. Built on the truth of our nervous systems, our history, and our brilliance.
This work is the product of decades of clinical practice, coaching mastery, cultural clarity, and embodied experience. It’s rooted in neurobiology. Anchored in liberation. And it’s designed to disrupt every lie we’ve been fed about our worth, our strength, and our stress.
They called it burnout.
They called it depression.
They called it "not managing your time."
I call it being KAGED by systems we were never meant to survive in.
The UNKAGED™ YEAR is your personal invitation to finally break free. It’s my 1:1 private coaching experience designed for the woman who’s ready to lead herself differently—from regulation, not reactivity—without losing herself, her relationships, or her health.
WHY ME THOUGH:
✨ Master Coach Instructor
✨ Advanced Practice Nurse + CRNA
✨ Architect of the SAFER™ Method + 5R Process
✨ Black Woman Thrive Architect
✨ UNKAGED™ wasn’t just created—it was lived into.
She Said what She Said-What Happens When You Get UNKAGED™
The Receipts
"Before coaching with Brig, I was grappling with feelings of uncertainty and self-doubt in my career. Brig's guidance empowered me to master career growth and self-confidence, transforming my professional trajectory."

Real Questions. Real Talk.
Questions Your Nervous System Might Be Asking
❓What if I can’t commit to weekly sessions?
A: You don’t have to. This is Flex Flow Coaching—which means your session schedule flexes with your real life. We’ll create a cadence that honors your capacity and your season.
❓What if I don’t finish all my sessions in 12 months?
A: This isn’t coaching based on a calendar—it’s based on capacity.
That means you have 12 months (or 13 if you pay in full) to use your 26 sessions however your nervous system, schedule, and season allow.
There’s no “falling behind” here.
There’s no shame if life lifed.
And there’s no gold star for rushing through all your sessions like a to-do list.
This is Flex Flow Coaching—rooted in regulation, not performance.
You’ll get support for the full year, and I’ll help guide the pacing so your sessions serve your transformation, not stress you out.
❓Is this only for Black women?
A: I center Black women in my work—on purpose.
Because we carry a unique load in this world: the pressure to perform, the exhaustion of invisibility, and the trauma of always having to be “the strong one.”
And that deserves a space where we don’t have to translate our experience to be understood.
But if you're a woman of color, or someone navigating systems that weren’t built for you—and you see yourself in this work? You’re welcome here.
Especially in this 1:1 container, we can hold space in a way that honors your lived experience without diluting the intentional focus of the work.
This is a space where we center the marginalized, not exclude.
You don’t have to prove you belong.
If you’re here asking, that already tells me you feel the pull—and I trust that.
Let’s talk on the call and make sure this space can hold you with the care and clarity you deserve.
💬 “I center Black women in this work, but if you’re a woman or woman of color navigating stress in a system never built for you—I got you too.”
❓What if I’ve done coaching before and it didn’t work?
A: That’s exactly why this is different.
You’ve likely had mindset coaching, exec coaching, or trauma-informed spaces that didn’t account for your nervous system, your culture, or your lived stress load.
This isn’t surface. It’s regulation-based transformation—and that changes everything.
❓Is there a retreat?
A: A private retreat experience may be offered in the future, but it’s not guaranteed. If it happens, you’ll have early access to join.
❓Will I have support between sessions?
A: Yes—bounded Voxer access is included. That means you’ll never be left alone to figure it out, but we also protect your space (and mine) so we both stay in flow. I’ve got you between the calls, not just on them.
❓What if something happens and I need to pause?
A: Life be life-ing. If you need to pause, we’ll discuss it together. This is a co-regulated space—not a contract trap.
❓Why is the nervous system such a big part of this?
A: Because your nervous system is where your stress lives.
Not in your calendar.
Not in your mindset.
Not in your “lack of discipline.”
If you’ve ever:
- had all the right tools but couldn’t follow through,
- known better but couldn’t do better, or
- kept pushing through even though your body was begging you to stop…
That’s your nervous system calling the shots.
In The UNKAGED™ Year, we don’t just talk about goals—we train your nervous system to feel safe enough to actually rest, receive, speak up, say no, slow down, speed up, and finally live your life without constant burnout.
Because if your nervous system isn’t on board, no plan will stick. PERIODT!!!
❓Do I need to have my whole life together before I start?
If you did, UNKAGED™ wouldn’t exist. Come as you are boo!
I GOT YA!
🖤 Your Next Season Doesn’t Require Sacrifice.
It just requires that you say yes to you.
You’ve done the pushing. The surviving. The overfunctioning.
But you—your body, your boundaries, your brilliance—deserve better.
The UNKAGED™ Year isn’t about adding more to your plate.
It’s about helping you feel safe enough to take some shyt off.
And still lead. Still show up. Still soar.
So if your nervous system whispered,
"This is what I’ve been needing..."
Don’t ignore that sacred nudge.
✨ Let’s talk. Let’s find your flow. Let’s get you UNKAGED.™
No pressure. Just a convo to see if this feels aligned.
