Self Construct: Foundations
A 12-week online guided coaching program for women who are done living by accident.
You’re the architect now.
The life and identity you're inhabiting was largely drawn up by someone else: other people's needs, default choices, or who you were at thirty. Your life has good bones, but the layout needs a remodel.
Foundations is where you pick up the pencil.
Twelve weeks to survey your current life and sense of self, get honest about what's working and what’s not, and draw a new Blueprint. In this guided group coaching program, you’ll have the dedicated support of both founder-coaches as you imagine the new layout of what an aligned life could look like.
Time is going to pass either way. You can spend the next few months reacting to your life, or designing it.
Are you ready to Self Construct ™?
Self Construct™: Foundations is for the accomplished, self-directed woman who is ready for what’s next, whether she's in the thick of a major transition or just clocking that something needs to change.
You want something different but can't yet name your next move
You've spent a long time building lives for everyone else and want authorship of your own
You want support that's warm and direct, and holds you to what you said you want
No prior coaching or inner work experience required. You just have to be willing to show up for yourself.
You've been high-functioning for years and want a more honest relationship with yourself
You want conversations with depth, intelligence and the occasional well-placed swear word

The Structure
You'll move between work you do on your own and live sessions where you bring what surfaced and work it through together, guided by Roya and Shannon. Witnessing and being witnessed is part of what makes it stick. Also, this shit is more fun when you're not doing it alone.
Weeks 1-4: Survey the ground.
Honest stock-taking, a structured life assessment, and a professional Enneagram report that shows you how you're wired and where you get in your own way. Future self mapping, visualization techniques and personal branding tools help you put language to a clearer sense of self.
Weeks 5-8: Draw the blueprint.
Audit every role you're carrying and sort what still fits from what you've outgrown. Design the shape of the life you want, your days, your weeks, your seasons, and claim the language for it.
Weeks 9-12: Take it into real life.
Test the design against your current schedule and find where it holds and where it wobbles. Learn the frameworks for the harder conversations, and how to hold a boundary once you’ve set one. Leave with a clear plan for what you’re building.

Foundations gives you a structured space for looking honestly at your life. Some women choose to pair that with a microdosing practice for deeper nervous system and mindset shifts, or because they are curious what it involves. Roya is a certified psychedelic integration coach, and this optional course is for both. It covers what microdosing is, what the research does and doesn't say, how people integrate the insights, and how a practice like this sits alongside structured coaching.
To be clear on what this is: an educational course and integration coaching. It does not include, provide, or source any substances, and it isn't medical advice. Whether and how to pursue a microdosing practice is your call to make with appropriate guidance, and legality varies by location.

Meet Roya and Shannon
Ladyculture was founded by Shannon DeJong and Roya Platsis, friends and collaborators since they were twelve, with decades of work between them across identity, leadership, and reinvention inside corporations, cultural institutions, startups and executive leadership rooms. Shannon brings identity architecture, brand strategy, formal arts training and years of Zen. Roya brings organizational change, transformation engineering, executive coaching, and psychedelic integration.
They built Self Construct after realizing the tools they'd used to help companies rebuild their identities work just as well on a person. And they kept meeting capable women flattened by a life that worked on the outside but no longer fit, with no framework built for that threshold. So they built one: decades of professional and personal experience turned into a serious process for life redesign, with a smidge of sparkle, from two people who still like each other after all these years, which turns out to be excellent qualification for the work.

We’ll help you catch up. Recordings are sent out to your cohort after every group session, you’ll have an accountability buddy to meet with if you choose, and Roya and Shannon are always available for a DM. You’ll also have the whole cohort and Ladyculture community behind you, so you’ll have lots of support to lean into. Remember that growth happens when you say yes to yourself and show up as best you can, not by being “perfect.”
