Social Anxiety
Academic Anxiety
Workplace Anxiety...
Why is Anxiety is the most prevalent mental health condition in the world today both among adults as well as children and teenagers?
Deep conversations with our clients and extensive research led us to uncover the underlying reason: the pressure to conform.
-
The pressure to meet standardized benchmarks of the ideal high performer - to the exclusion of everyone else who doesn't fit that mould.
-
The pressure to mask our innate differences in sensory processing, sensitivity to the world around us, and social preferences.
-
The feeling of inadequateness that comes with trying to be someone you're not, and the social isolation that comes with failing to be that inauthentic self.
And why now in just the last few decades?
Because never before have social and financial incentives been so deeply coupled with the ideal benchmark. Especially in the age of instant judgement on social media and the threat of obsolescence with AI.
piRx empowers you...
to disregard the stereotypical ideal and embrace your brain's unique wiring and diversity.
to create learning and working pathways to achieve success as defined by you.
to unapologetically stop masking and self-advocate for an environment that fosters shared success.
