CrackFinder™

A 15-minute identity diagnostic built on Narrative Systems Engineering. It maps the crack between who you are and who you learned to be through three patterns: Threat → Mask → Cost.

How it works

A structural clarity session.

CrackFinder™ uses three identity patterns to map the protective system running underneath your story.

Threat
What feels at risk when you’re fully seen. The part your system tries to protect.
Mask
The version of you that steps in to survive the moment — to keep the peace, perform, or disappear.
Cost
The emotional, physical, and relational cost your system keeps paying in the background.

After finishing, you receive a personalized Discovery Report in your inbox.
