Over the last year, I’ve provided insights and ideas on how to become a MeEO™.
The structures and activities may seem disconnected in a blog format.
However, I’ve developed frameworks and formulas to guide you on the path.
I want to introduce you to one of those frameworks today.
The MeEO™ Hierarchy
This roadmap supports you in reclaiming your career, confidence, and control.
One level at a time.
It guides your journey from burnout or career uncertainty to full ownership of life and work.
Helping you stabilize your foundation.
Organizing your life/
Recognizing your strengths.
And much more.
Ultimately, the goal is to rise into leadership of your own path.
Below is a summary of each of the 5 levels.
Level 1: RESET – Stabilize Your Foundation
Theme: Career Insurance & Personal Sustainability
Keywords: Stability, stress relief, baseline energy, emotional clarity, safety
Description:
Before you can rise, you must feel safe. RESET is about regaining your footing—financially, mentally, and emotionally. This level is focused on reducing stress, securing income, and creating enough mental clarity to move forward. You begin shifting from survival mode into a more grounded space.
Goal:
Move from overwhelm to stability so you can make decisions from a place of calm and strength.
Level 2: RECLAIM – Take Back Time & Space
Theme: Organization and Ownership
Keywords: Boundaries, priorities, systems, simplification, control
Description:
At this stage, you begin to clear the clutter—physically, mentally, and digitally. You build structure in your calendar, inbox, routines, and home. You set clearer boundaries, reclaim your time, and begin designing your life to serve you, not just your responsibilities.
Goal:
Clear the chaos and regain control of your day-to-day environment.
Level 3: REFLECT – Define Your Direction
Theme: Vision and Self-Discovery
Keywords: Self-awareness, values, clarity, goals, decision-making
Description:
Now that the noise has died down, you can turn inward. REFLECT is your opportunity to ask big, bold questions: Who am I now? What matters most to me? Where do I want to go next? This stage is about reconnecting with your values, strengths, desires, and sense of purpose.
Goal:
Create a personal vision and redefine success on your terms.
Level 4: REALIGN – Clarify & Communicate Your Brand
Theme: Personal Brand & Visibility
Keywords: Identity, voice, story, alignment, reputation
Description:
With clarity comes confidence. REALIGN is where you align your outer presence with your inner truth. You update your LinkedIn, resume, and digital presence. You begin to tell your story with authenticity. You become known not just for your job title, but for your unique strengths and impact.
Goal:
Step into visibility and shape how others experience your value.
Level 5: RISE – Lead Your Career & Life Like a MeEO™
Theme: Self-Leadership & Autonomy
Keywords: Empowerment, ownership, influence, intentionality, impact
Description:
RISE is the top level of MeEO™. You lead your life and career from a place of intention and alignment. You might be building a business, thriving in a new role, mentoring others, or creating change in your industry. No matter what the choice, you’ve stepped into self-leadership. You are no longer at the mercy of external forces. You’re leading your own path. The work continues here as you can’t become complacent. Continue to work and stay in the lead.
Goal:
Live and lead with confidence, alignment, and purpose.
