Dessy Levinson - From Overwhelm To Flow

DESCRIPTION:

Dessy Levinson, author of From Overwhelm to Flow, is a strategist and coach whose work draws from neuroscience, psychology, and lived experience. She has spent over two decades helping leaders, founders, and thoughtful individuals navigate complexity and build genuine resilience.

In From Overwhelm to Flow, Levinson introduces the CRATE framework—Clarity, Regulation, Agency, Trust, and Energy—as a path to move from emotional chaos into grounded clarity. Whether you're a founder facing startup challenges, a leader fostering psychological safety, or someone seeking deeper understanding of your inner world, this book offers practical tools and strategic insights to help you transform how you relate to overwhelm.

With warmth, honesty, and powerful stories of transformation, Levinson shows how our moments of greatest struggle can become the gateway to flow. This is not just another self-help book—it’s a guide to remembering what we already know: that intensity, when met with curiosity and skill, can lead to meaning, creativity, and real change.
