Discover and familiarise yourself with the HARDWIRES™ that have formed inside your brain and understand how to master them.

You DON't know

what you don't know,

until you know it.

Discovering the truth about ourselves isn’t always easy. You might think you know yourself—perhaps you’ve done personality tests, reflected on your virtues, and admitted your vices or “sins.” Yet it’s mind‑boggling to accurately see the inner neural patterns that shape your present character: some inherited, some conditioned, and some formed by your environment.

"Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value."

-Albert Einstein

The human brain can feel mysterious, and many of us carry fears of failure, guilt, or shame when facing our imperfections. You’re not alone in this—everyone is “under construction.” If you’ve chosen to explore here, you’ve already taken a big step forward.

From childhood, our brains built protective pathways to help us cope. But those same patterns can hold us back in adulthood. The Hardwires Assessment was created to help you name and understand these patterns—so you can see clearly what’s been shaping your choices and responses.

This journey of rewiring reveals the hardwires that keep us stuck in dependency, victimhood, self‑centeredness, or instant gratification. By identifying them, you gain the tools for real autonomy and self‑awareness.

That shift allows you to “zoom out,” reflect, and transform the areas of life that have been limiting your growth.

If you don’t take charge of your hardwires, they will forever take charge of you!

The assessment is your first step toward being “liberated from mental slavery,” like the Bob Marley song.

What is a Hardwires™ Assessment?

A Hardwires™ Assessment is an in-depth, non-threatening prognostic tool for assessing the factors limiting and/or obstructing change that have developed from early childhood days in our minds, often without us even being aware of this happening.

In understanding the cause and effect of these HARDWIRES™, we are able to re-wire, because of the remarkable neuroplasticity of our brains.

"Hardwire Assessment was phenomenal. The enrolling process was easy and quick and I could do the questionnaire without hesitation. The questions made me think a lot, allowed me to introspect and be deeply honest with myself, as I felt the only way to get an accurate outcome was to be fully honest. The Hardwire team got back to me quickly, and I could get feedback from Viv. She was Excellent in the feedback. It was thorough and thought-provoking, challenging yet informative. It revealed things I didn't think could be picked up in an online assessment. My attitudes, my state of mind, my anxieties and reasons for behavior, my inclinations in behavior and thinking.. was really good. I left feeling empowered, knowing there is work to be done and that I could grow as a person. I would recommend Hardwire Assessment to anyone."

"Hardwires assessment and coaching session has been an eye-opening experience. It came at a time in my life when even I was so confused at the decision I was making, I often explain it as an out-of-body experience, as I watch myself going about my daily routine, I was exhausted mentally. Yet I couldn't explain it to anyone else or even myself; I knew that I was acting out of character. After taking this assessment, not thinking too much about it, I received my graph and when Vivienne started to explain it and asked me some very personal questions, it was eye-opening as the session pinpointed exactly what I was feeling, why I was not coping with doing the same things I had been doing for the past 10 years, and how I was no longer happy, even though life was fine."

"The session was very informative, the coach was patient, kind, empathetic, a clear communicator who explained every section well. It was a relief to realise that I can change and that I am not stuck. The coach provided me with practical advice and tools to help me start my re-wiring journey. I would recommend this assessment to anyone who feels stuck and would want to reach their full potential but aren’t able to identify their blockages. Through the coaching session, I was able to realise what has been holding me back and what I can do to change it."

"Thank you very much for the call. I feel like I have been conscious of these hardwires, and it felt great to get the reassurance that my thoughts are in the right direction. It’s time now to stop doing this all by myself and start getting practical steps to change my patterns. I’m honestly sick of hurting myself and picking myself up again. It’s so tiring!"

"I would like to thank HARDWIRES for the worthwhile gift of having been able to discover my hard wires. The results coming so soon after completion helped in keeping momentum and increased the expectancy to understand it all. The new terminology and language open an unknown world to see obstacles that are silent saboteurs waiting to be triggered.
Great user-friendly program followed up by excellent coaching guidance! Thank you. I want more of this."
