How The Belief Audit Works
The Belief Audit is one of Annie’s core clinical tools, applied in session and in coursework. It’s designed to translate, distinguish, or regulate where most frameworks generalize.
- Step 1: Surface. name the unconscious rules driving the pattern. ‘Relationships should feel intense from day one.’ ‘Quick texters are desperate.’ ‘Short men make me feel less feminine.’
- Step 2: Source. trace the rule to its origin. Family of origin, early relational template, cultural script.
- Step 3: Test. check whether the rule still applies to adult life. Most don’t.
- Step 4: Replace. build a new rule, written explicitly, used as a check-in until it becomes default.
Who The Belief Audit Serves
driven women working with the proverbial house of life. Specifically, leaders, physicians, entrepreneurs, executives, and the women who have built impressive external lives but feel a heaviness internally.
Where The Belief Audit Lives
The Belief Audit appears in the following places in Annie’s clinical work:
- Individual therapy with Annie
- Executive coaching with Annie
- Annie’s forthcoming book, The Everything Years (W.W. Norton, 2027)
