Fulfilled Life. 

Free Resources for busy professionals

You’re ready to build success that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.

Maybe you’re making great money but feeling trapped in a
work-eat-sleep cycle you can't escape? 

You’re ready to replace fatigue with fulfillment and
carve a path to success that allows you to ENJOY life every day.

You’re ready to:

  • Learn to leave work at work and show up for the things you keep saying are important to you, like date night with your partner, dinner time with the kids, a relaxing family trip, or finally catching up with your friends for brunch. No more slacks at 11 pm. No more emails once the laptop is closed. Phone on silent once you walk through the front door.

  • Have a life and career that allows flexibility to LIVE and be human, to take two weeks off to be there for a loved one, or to take a spontaneous trip. There is no guilt and no backlash when you return.

  • Build a career where work no longer feels like it’s soul sucking, knowing you’re building a legacy that’s deeply meaningful for you because it’s intentionally designed around what genuinely excites you.

  • Make clear decisions whenever you’re feeling stuck and know how to find clarity and make confident moves that result in a life and career you love. No more indecision. No more waiting to LIVE YOUR LIFE!  

  • Identify clear options to walk away from a toxic job or take a career break if that’s the right move for you. Or discover ways you can evolve your current role to get rid of the stuff you hate, and create space for more of what you love.

  • You’re ready to truly value your expertise and learn to articulate what you bring to the table in powerful ways that open doors to dream-come-true roles. 

Hi, I’m Elizabeth. 

I’ve been exactly where you are - “successful on paper,” but exhausted in reality.

After 20 years of traditional success at high-profile tech companies in San Francisco, Boston, and London, leading teams across 100+ countries, managing $100 M+ in products, and building global communities and companies for more than 17 years… I hit my own breaking point. 

I worked 60+ hour weeks for years (I even slept under my desk at work during big product launches). I found myself struggling with chronic illness, burnout, and a growing sense that there had to be more to life than pushing through exhaustion.  

I was tired of feeling like I could never say yes to that picnic in Alamo Square with my girlfriends or that fun run through Golden Gate Park on the weekends. 

On my first vacation in four years to Hawaii, I dropped my phone in the ocean. I gave my team a friend’s phone number for emergencies only. One day, I got 10 text messages asking me to approve a copy of a marketing email. 

That’s when I knew this was no longer sustainable and something had to change.

At a certain point in my career, I started to wonder -  What has this all been for? What will my legacy be? 

I was working at a company that claimed to share my values, but they weren’t living them in practice.

It was great to see the promise of stock one day going up and up, but it became part of the reason I stayed in jobs that were taking over my life for so long. 

It was hard to imagine myself ever leaving my job. I worried that I might not be able to secure such a high-paying role again. I wasn’t sure my skills would be transferable beyond the type of role I was in.

I felt chained into a career that was sucking the life out of me by the golden handcuffs of stock options, perks, and travel points. 

When I started winding up in the hospital from exhaustion on the weekends … then trying to work through a concussion from a car accident…. I started to realize my life and priorities were deeply out of whack.

I was tired of living in the beautiful city of San Francisco, but never getting to enjoy it like everyone else. 

I always put off that opportunity for a date because work was piling up, and I started asking questions about what my future would look like if I continued this way…

I craved to make a more positive impact in the world, to do work that aligned with my values, and to stop making money for faceless big tech.

I wanted space and time to go to that doctor's appointment
instead of fearing I had to rush back to the office.

I kept trying to work even when my body was screaming at me to stop and take a break.

I had everything I was taught to want growing up. A respected title, huge job, a full calendar (that meant you were important!) until my body made the decision for me and made it impossible to continue down that path, thanks to illness, hospital visits, and burnout. 

Success without sustainability isn’t success…

What followed was a full-body, full-soul transformation that finally gave me the life of freedom and fulfillment I had been dreaming about.

I took 9 months off between jobs and moved onto a job making almost 100k more because I could confidently tell my story, communicate my value, and capabilities. Taking time out gave me my creative spark back, which allowed me to share my vision for my career with confidence and conviction, which got me the job.

My new job was an improvement… but as I continued to challenge my beliefs about what was really possible, I grew clearer and more driven to create a life of even more freedom and alignment with my values, which led me to an exciting idea to start my own business. 

In my current business, I finally cracked the code to bring my vision of sustainable success to life, where my body, well-being, and fulfillment ALWAYS come first. 

I’ve built a life that allows me to flex and flow as needed… 

… No more feeling like I could never put myself and my needs first.

Now I love the life and career I built as a Sustainable Success Strategist, Burnout Recovery Coach, and Startup Advisor, where I get to share the research-backed approaches that have helped me and hundreds of other high-achieving professionals create success that honors their ambitions and feels as good as it looks.

I’m a proud founder of two companies: 2122 Coaching & Consulting and The 2122 Fund (my angel investing vehicle).

Today, I help mid-to-late career professionals - especially women in leadership - transition into aligned, purpose-driven work using a practical and trauma-aware approach. 

I spent three years learning science-backed methodologies and traveling to places like Harvard’s teaching hospital and the Cleveland Clinic. I worked with coaches, guides, and doctors learning a blend of techniques that would become my signature methodology, integrating business and career strategy with nervous system science, energy optimization, and holistic planning to create real, sustainable success.

Imagine feeling so purposeful in the work you do each day (and having the energy actually to ENJOY it!)  Being able to realize your most exciting dreams in every aspect of life, whether as a leader, community member, friend, or family member. Being able to say YES to that once-in-a-lifetime trip, or taking weekends off to curl up in bed with a good book, or going for brunch. 

The world needs people who can function optimally and bring their unique strengths and perspectives without sacrificing their well-being. It’s all possible!

  • I am more calmly confident in my career path, when before I was stuck and unfulfilled. I am in a new role that I enjoy and value, and I am not second-guessing it. I’m able to articulate what I value and can gather that fulfillment from more than one source. She has a process that works. Do the work and trust it. You won’t regret taking the leap.

My signature methodology combines:

Neuroplasticity Work: Rewiring the neural pathways that were keeping me stuck in burnout cycles

Nervous System Regulation: Evidence-based techniques that helped me shift from a state of chronic stress to a state where healing and strategic thinking became possible

Values Clarification: I took the time and space to discover what truly mattered to me beneath layers of "shoulds" and external expectations

I learned how to align my workflow and work with my natural energy cycles instead of fighting against them

I worked with coaches to create my own productivity Systems, Mind, and Time Management for an overstimulated world after discovering I was neurodiverse.  

Breath work, Emotional Freedom Technique, and mindset work helped me release stress and limiting beliefs at both conscious and subconscious levels.

I've helped hundreds of discerning clients reclaim their energy, rebuild their confidence, and launch fulfilling next chapters as consultants, founders, or conscious leaders inside organizations. My clients appreciate my thoughtful, quality-focused approach, which addresses the entire transformation journey rather than just surface-level issues.

When I'm not helping clients transform their relationship with work and success, you might find me:

  • Hiking trails with my dog (proud dog mom here!)

  • Volunteering with local nonprofits

  • Experimenting with gluten-free baking recipes (with varying degrees of success!)

  • Training my own LLMs (the technology behind AI tools like Claude)

  • Adding to my self-development book collection

For the personality-type curious: I'm a double Taurus, Type 5 Enneagram, and INFJ (The Advocate). These traits show up in my coaching through my grounded persistence, analytical approach, and intuitive understanding of complex human dynamics.

As someone who struggles with entrepreneurial energy fluctuations and overwhelm, Elizabeth has helped me find my passion and sustain it holistically through mindfulness and wellness practices. I am incredibly grateful to have someone in my life who can offer solutions across my personal life, professional life, and the intersection between the two."

    Kaila M.

  • My favorite thing about working with Elizabeth was her ability to listen and see the whole picture. Elizabeth is so good at picking up on nuance, both within an individual and within complicated situations. She then can lay bare the challenges in a way that then seem so obvious, even though you never would have caught them yourself. The biggest change I’ve experienced since working with Elizabeth was a complicated job transition. It had implications for me professionally, practically, morally, emotionally, and psychologically. Elizabeth helped me navigate that career path change seamlessly and with less turmoil than what otherwise may have been.

  • “I had the pleasure of working with 2122 Coaching and Liz Ruscitto during an extended period in 2023. As a young professional, it can be difficult to make time to take a look at your career, to evaluate what works and what doesn't and to implement changes where necessary. Asking hard questions and asking for help can be downright scary. Working with 2122 and Liz was a fantastic and rewarding experience, one I would recommend to anyone. If you are nervous about becoming an entrepreneur, want to change career focus, want to change jobs, want to start a company, or want to change the impact that you are making in your current position, Liz will help you to do better.”

    Chris B.

  • “l worked with 2122 because I was, quite frankly, stuck. I was weighing a career change, exploring the purchase of a business or just looking for ways to make me happier in my current position. Liz helped me to evaluate my professional aspirations through exercises that held up a mirror to things I was unable to see on my own. She provided support and guidance in a way that helped me answer my own questions. Liz was patient, knowledgeable, and unafraid to dig further into uncomfortable places. Liz has helped me to understand the value of planning my next career moves in advance in a way that has reduced my anxiety and made me feel better prepared for hard decisions. I appreciate all that she has done for me and I am sure that anyone else considering her services will feel the same way.”
