Meet Kathryn Fredrickson
I built a successful marketing career, driving growth for global brands. But masking CPTSD looked like achievement at all costs—and ignoring my own boundaries. It eventually led to burnout and a secondary case of PTSD.
My healing sabbatical became a turning point. Through Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG), I learned that strength doesn’t come from perfection—it comes from rewriting the story you’ve been told.
I know the cost of betrayal at the hands of the Dark Triad—manipulation, exploitation, discard—and I know how to turn that betrayal into clarity and strategy.
I rose like a Phoenix through building creative writing, art-as-therapy, and trauma-informed leadership tools. Reframing my story cut through old paradigms and opened space for new possibilities.
That’s why I created Fredhappy: a movement offering self-leadership workbooks, resilience playbooks, and storytelling frameworks that help people build sustainable, full-spectrum lives.
Fredhappy blends psychology, resilience science, and mythic storytelling into practical personal growth tools for burnout recovery, boundary-setting, and long-term success.

Why I Built This
I built a successful career leading global brand growth—but I lost myself along the way. Chronic stress, boundary collapse, and emotional betrayal led to burnout and PTSD.
My healing sabbatical became a turning point. Through post-traumatic growth, I learned that strength doesn’t come from pretending everything’s fine.
It comes from learning how to rewrite the story you’ve been told.
Fredhappy was born from that awakening.
A movement rooted in storytelling, emotional clarity, and nervous system truth.
Healer.space is its softest place—a channel for repair, gentleness, and realignment.
