Cone Self-Exploration Program
Knowing yourself and reclaiming your freedom from those who control you
Online program now live!
What is it?
The Cone Self-Exploration Program is based on the Cone Model© I have developed and described in my book CONEtrolled: How we’ve lost our freedom and how to reclaim it.
A "Cone" can be a person, a group, an organization, or a system thas has power over you, and uses it to control, exploit, and punish you.

Each of us contains all the Cones to which we subscribe, such as our cultures, religions, community norms, nationalities, educational systems, economic and political systems, hyper-controlling communities, authoritarian families or partners, and almost everything else.
The more Cones we internalize, the harsher we become with ourselves without realizing it’s not us, it’s them. We measure our appearance, thoughts, successes, and actions against our many Cone yardsticks and we punish ourselves for failing unrealistic and harmful expectations.
How will the Cone Self-Exploration Program help you?
Throughout this self-analysis and reflection, you will
-
discover your strongly held beliefs and values
-
reflect on their origins and question their validity and their impact on your, and other people’s lives
-
find out how vulnerable you are to manipulative people and systems and how to protect yourself from manipulators
-
uncover at least a few of the people and/or systems that control you against your best interest
-
explore ways to rescue yourself from their grip
-
start your journey toward a better and more sustainable life as an individual, a member of your communities, a resident of our planet, and an integral element of our universe.

Note:
The Cone Self-Exploration Program is a structured reflection guide that initiates a deeper self-examination. It is not a validated, scientific tool with cut-and-dried thresholds and categories, and in no way should it be used for any form of clinical or psychological diagnosis.

More about the Program
Part 1: Who I am and what I believe
Before you can spot who controls you, you need to know yourself. In Part 1, you'll uncover the core beliefs and values that define you, where they came from, which ones you truly chose and which were imposed on you, and what these beliefs actually mean for you and for others. Then you will go through a vulnerability assessment that will help you identify the specific vulnerabilities that could make you open to manipulation, and the strengths you already have working in your favour. It's a powerful starting point that changes how you see everything that follows.
Part 2: The Cones that govern my life
BThis is where the targeted work begins. You'll start by identifying the specific people and systems shaping your choices. You will then put each one under the lens of the CONE framework, examining eleven key factors: unmet needs, unbalanced gains, unbalanced losses, demands for obedience, demands for loyalty, divisive tactics, toxic patterns, information control, denial of the right to question, harsh punishments, and lack of accountability. The insights can be surprising, uncomfortable, and ultimately liberating. Eventually, with all the pieces of Part 1 and Part 2 in place, you'll step back and see and reflect on the full landscape of your life.
Part 3: My action plan
Awareness without action is just information. Part 3 is where you build your roadmap—realistic, supported, and uniquely yours. You'll weigh your options, revisit your sense of personal power, and begin imagining what freedom actually looks like for you; concretely, not just in theory. The program closes with a celebration of the courage it takes to face hard truths and choose differently.
This program is not limited to a single iteration. Go back to it once in a while and re-examine your beliefs, vulnerabilities, and relationships to help you appreciate your progress and plan your next steps.
