Guiding humans to wrangling inner squirrels — Meet your Squirrel Wrangler

In my video, I introduce myself as Stacy Braiuca — the Squirrel Wrangler — and explain how I'm focused on Guiding humans to wrangling inner squirrels: those racing thoughts, limiting beliefs, and self-doubt that steal your peace. If you've ever felt pulled between a calm exterior and a frantic inner life, this article sums up what I shared, why it works, and how we can work together to quiet the noise for good.

Who I work with 🐿️

I mostly work with women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s who look like they have it all together — successful, reliable, people others turn to — yet lie awake at night second-guessing themselves. If you feel like you're running on a hamster wheel (or a squirrel wheel) of worry — replaying past mistakes, spiraling into "what ifs," or constantly asking for validation — you're exactly who I had in mind when I created this work.

What I call “inner squirrels” 🧠

Inner squirrels are the habitual thought patterns that jump from worry to worry: "Am I doing enough? Am I good enough? Did I make the right choice?" They sap energy, keep you stuck in survival mode, and make life feel smaller than it is. My job is to help you identify those patterns, trace them back to where they started, and then gently guide them back to calm.

"Those are your inner squirrels and they are exhausting you."

The Squirrel Wrangling Method 🛠️

My approach pairs a four-pillar foundation with targeted release work. The four pillars — body, mind, relationships, and spirit — create a systemic rotation to organize multi-passionate minds rather than trying to "fix" scattered thinking. From that foundation we choose one specific life area and use powerful tools like the ME (mental-emotional release) technique and NLP to reprogram the roots of anxious patterns.

We also use practical supports like the Ellie productivity app to help you launch goals and form memory anchors that reinforce your newfound clarity. The goal isn't band-aid solutions — it's transforming scattered shame into strategic celebration and rebuilding empowering structures that last.

Real results — sleep, trust, calm 😴

One of the most common outcomes my clients report is the return of sleep. Instead of lying awake at 2:00 a.m., checking your phone, or replaying conversations, clients begin to sleep through the night and make decisions from a place of trust rather than doubt. They move from asking three people what to do to trusting their own judgment.

My story — why I do this ❤️

For 20 years I worked as a clinical therapist, helping others with anxiety while privately struggling with generalized anxiety disorder myself. On November 17, 2022, I discovered NLP and ME methods that didn't just manage my anxiety — they put it into remission. Those techniques also helped my dad. The transformation was so profound that I knew I had to share them with my clients and the wider world.

How we work together 🔁

We begin by building the four-pillar foundation, then select one area of your life to focus on. Through a mix of ME processes, NLP, systems for organizing multiple interests, and concrete productivity tools, we reprogram the beliefs that created the anxiety in the first place. The work is practical, compassionate, and aimed at permanent change.

Everyday victories matter ✨

My favorite part is watching small victories stack up: sleeping through the night, trusting a decision, sending an email without rewriting it a dozen times. These quiet wins are the proof that your mind isn't your enemy — it can be a trusted ally.

FAQ ❓

Who benefits most from this work?

Women in their 30s–50s who are high-functioning on the outside but anxious on the inside—especially those with multiple interests who feel scattered and ashamed about it.

Does this replace therapy or medication?

These techniques complement therapy and can be powerful alongside or after clinical support. If you're on medication or in therapy, we'll coordinate to make sure your care stays safe and effective.

How long before I notice change?

Clients often notice improved sleep and reduced mental chatter within weeks, but deeper reprogramming depends on the roots of the pattern. The work is designed for lasting change, not quick fixes.

How can I get started?

If you're exhausted from pretending and ready to stop the inner chatter, reach out. I walk alongside you — a navigator who has been where you are and knows the way out.

Final note 🌟
