Practitioners are not here to fix you. They are here to guide you—gently, respectfully, lovingly.
Because the truth is… your body hasn’t given up on you.
It never has.

Every single day, your body shows up for you.
It breathes for you.
It adapts.
It protects.
It heals in ways you may not even realize.

You were born with that wisdom.
You were born with the innate ability to heal.
And sometimes, all that’s needed is the right support to help bring you back into balance.

That’s where practitioners come in—not to override your inner wisdom, but to walk beside you as you reconnect to it.
The right practitioners will gently guide your nervous system from survival back into safety.
They’ll help you restore gut health, reconnect mind and body, and support your return to ease, resilience, and wholeness.

But here’s the most important truth of all:
You are the healer.
You are the one showing up every day.
You are the one choosing new patterns, becoming more aware, and tending to the parts of you that once felt unseen or unheard.

You get to choose the tools that support you.
You get to ask:
💭 Is this serving me?
💭 Is this nourishing my body, my heart, and my soul?
💭 Is this helping me come home to myself?

If you’re feeling stuck—whether it’s in symptoms, behaviors, or repeating patterns—it may be time to invite in some extra support. You don’t have to do it all alone.

Ways to support your healing journey:
🌿 Find a practitioner who sees your wholeness, not just your symptoms.
🌿 Explore self-soothing tools that feel nourishing—breathwork, journaling, gentle movement, rest, time in nature.
🌿 Listen inward. Notice your body’s cues. Ask with compassion:
— Do I feel safe right now?
— Do I need to slow down?
— What is my body asking of me today?

There are no shortcuts to deep transformation.
But every small act of care you offer yourself is a step toward wholeness.

So tell me—what was one of the first steps you took on your healing journey?
Your story might be the encouragement someone else needs to begin theirs 💗

Surrender doesn’t always mean giving up.
It doesn’t mean letting go of your dreams, your desires, or your hopes. It doesn’t mean you’re weak or that you’re failing.

Surrender is a sacred invitation. It’s a gentle whisper from your soul asking you to soften your grip, to release the need to control every detail, and to trust in a wisdom deeper than your own mind.

To surrender is to detach from the outcome—not because you don’t care, but because you care enough to stop forcing, striving, and pushing against the natural flow.
It’s choosing to relax into the present moment, to breathe into the unknown, and to remember that your body, your heart, and your spirit heal best when they feel safe—when they feel supported, and when they feel held.

And in that space of surrender, something beautiful happens.
You begin to receive.
💫 You receive rest.
💫 You receive clarity.
💫 You receive guidance.
💫 You receive the very things you were trying so hard to grasp.

Surrender doesn’t take your power away—it returns it to you.
Because healing doesn’t come from force.
And receiving doesn’t come from tension.
They come from softness, from stillness, from letting go.

So if you’re tired…
If your soul is weary from trying to hold it all…
Maybe this is your permission to surrender.
To trust.
To let life meet you where you are.

You are worthy of rest.
You are safe to release.
And you are supported as you receive. 💕

Your Feelings Were Always Meant to Be Felt 💛

When a child hears “stop crying,” “calm down,” or “be tough,” they don’t just hear words—they receive a message: Your feelings are too much. Certain emotions aren’t safe. You must hold it all in.

So they do. They swallow their sadness, hide their anger, and silence their fear. But emotions don’t disappear just because we push them away. They stay within us, waiting to be seen, felt, and understood.

And as adults, those unprocessed emotions can surface in ways that feel overwhelming—through anxiety, people-pleasing, emotional outbursts, or even complete shutdown.

But here’s the beautiful truth: healing begins the moment we decide to break the cycle. The moment we give ourselves permission to feel the feelings we were once told to hide.

You are not “too much.” Your emotions are not something to suppress. They are a part of you, longing for love and understanding.

And as you learn to honor them, you become the safe space you always needed—the one who listens, who nurtures, who says, It’s okay to feel. I’m here with you. 💛✨

04/01/2025

You Are Not Broken, You Are Becoming ✨

Healing isn’t about fixing what is “wrong” with you. It isn’t about forcing change or trying to reshape yourself into something more acceptable, more worthy, more whole.

Because the truth is—you were never broken to begin with.

Your body is not something to be fixed. It is something to be witnessed, held, and honored. Healing happens when we stop seeing ourselves as a problem to solve and instead meet ourselves with compassion, curiosity, and care.

We cannot heal emotions we refuse to feel. We cannot soothe pain we ignore. When we suppress our truth—when we deny our sadness, silence our anger, or push away our grief—we don’t make it disappear. We only bury it deeper.

But when we allow ourselves to sit with what is, without judgment… when we gently witness our pain instead of trying to force it away… when we hold space for all parts of ourselves, even the messy and uncomfortable ones… that’s when healing begins.

Not through force, but through love.
Not through fixing, but through allowing.

Your healing is not about becoming someone new—it’s about remembering who you’ve always been. And that version of you? She is worthy of love exactly as she is. 💛✨

Grief: A Pathway to Healing & Wholeness 💛

Grief is not something to be feared or avoided—it is a tender and necessary unfolding of truth. It acknowledges our pain, our losses, our transitions, and the endings we never expected. And when we allow ourselves to grieve, something profound happens: we come home to ourselves.

Grief brings us into our bodies. It reconnects us with what we feel, with what is real. It is not a sign that something is broken, but rather a sign that something mattered.

That’s why grief is often present in healing. It is a bridge to wholeness, to closure, and—though it may seem unexpected—even to joy.

When we suppress our grief, we carry an invisible weight, a lingering sense of incompleteness. But when we create safety within ourselves to feel it—to let the tears fall, to allow the trembling, to ride the waves of loss and change—we find release. We find movement. We find our way back to peace.

Grief does not mean forgetting. It does not mean that what hurt us no longer does. It means we honor what was, we acknowledge what is, and we soften under the weight of it all, allowing love to make space for healing.

So yes, when we heal, we also grieve. And what a beautiful, sacred thing it is to do so. 💛

Redefining Honor with Love & Boundaries 💛

“Honor your father and mother.”

A verse, a teaching, a value passed down through generations. But too often, it’s misused to silence pain, dismiss boundaries, and demand blind obedience.

Here’s what true honor was never meant to be:

💛 Enduring mistreatment in the name of family.
💛 Sacrificing your peace to protect someone else’s pride.
💛 Silencing your truth just to keep the illusion of harmony.

Honor is built on love, mutual respect, and accountability—not control, fear, or guilt.

So if a parent expects ‘honor’ without reflection, without accountability, without regard for your well-being, ask yourself:

How can you be expected to honor a relationship that was never honored in the first place?

Setting boundaries is not dishonor—it’s wisdom.
Walking away from mistreatment is not betrayal—it’s self-preservation.

And if anyone tries to shame you for that, remember this:

You can honor your family by breaking the cycle—by choosing healing over harm, by refusing to pass down the same pain you had to survive.

That’s not rebellion. That’s redemption. 💫

03/27/2025

Breaking the Cycle is a Gift 💛

The patterns we carry are not set in stone. While they may have been passed down to us, we hold the power to change them—and in doing so, we give the next generation a beautiful gift: the freedom to grow without inheriting the same struggles.

Your children are always watching, learning from the way you navigate emotions, boundaries, and challenges. When they see you approach life with self-compassion and support, they begin to understand that they, too, are allowed to feel, process, and heal.

This doesn’t mean you need to be perfect. It’s not about never making mistakes—it’s about showing up with authenticity.

💛 Taking a deep breath before responding instead of reacting.
💛 Talking openly about emotions instead of bottling them up.
💛 Respecting your own limits so they learn to honor theirs.

Every time you choose presence over pressure, self-care over self-sacrifice, and connection over control, you create a home where emotions are safe to be felt, and healing is possible.

Your healing isn’t just for you—it’s for them, too. By doing this work, you are building a legacy of resilience, emotional well-being, and self-trust that will ripple through generations.

The cycle stops with you. And that is a gift beyond measure. 💫

Your Body is Not Just Pain—It is Wisdom, Too 💛

When we begin healing, we often see our body through the lens of trauma and pain. We notice its symptoms. Its discomfort. Its dysregulation. We see what feels broken, what needs fixing.

And yes, these experiences are real. Yes, they deserve care and attention. And… sometimes, in our focus on healing what hurts, we forget something essential:

✨ Beneath the pain, our body holds deep wisdom.
✨ Beneath the tension, there is an innate intelligence at work.
✨ Within us, there is a natural ability to repair, restore, and return to balance.

When the nervous system stays in a protective state, the body braces, tightens, numbs, or dissociates—not because it’s broken, but because it’s protecting you. These are layers of self-preservation, not permanent states.

Your body is not just a container for pain—it is a vessel for healing.

What if, instead of only noticing what feels out of balance, you also paid attention to how deeply your body supports you?

💛 The quiet messages it sends, inviting you to slow down and listen.
💛 The way it adapts, shifts, and finds its way—even through the hardest seasons.
💛 The miracle of how it repairs itself in your deepest sleep.

Your body knows how to heal. It was designed to.

So as you walk this path of self-connection, let this truth be at the center:
“I trust my body’s wisdom. I am listening. I am honoring its needs. And I am ready to heal.” 💫

Becoming the Anchor: Leading Your Family with Love & Calm 💛

Your child is overwhelmed. Your partner is on edge. The tension rises, and before you know it, you react—raising your voice, shutting down, or trying to control the moment.

You tell yourself you’re just trying to bring order back—but what’s really happening is this: everyone in the room is adjusting to your energy.

Parenthood and partnership invite us into a powerful truth: we are either the anchor our family steadies themselves around, or the storm they tiptoe around to keep the peace.

If staying calm in heated moments feels impossible, you are not alone. But here’s the good news: learning to regulate your nervous system gives you the ability to remain grounded, even when emotions are high. 🌿✨

When you master this, everything shifts:
💛 You stop feeling like the emotional wildcard and start becoming the steady, trusted presence your family needs.
💛 Your kids learn from you what safety, leadership, and emotional regulation look like.
💛 Your partner feels seen, supported, and connected rather than walking on eggshells.

Imagine stepping into a room and the energy settles instead of tightens. Imagine your family relaxing when they hear your voice instead of bracing for it.

This is the power of becoming the anchor. 💫 And it’s a journey worth taking.

Three Years Sober: What I’ve Learned

There is NO amount of alcohol that will add true value to your life.
No exceptions. No exemptions.

Alcohol is a revealer—it doesn’t numb pain, it exposes it. It brings to the surface everything we try so hard to bury: the suffering, the anger, the unresolved wounds.

If you feel like you need a drink after a long day… if you reach for alcohol when you’re feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or alone… don’t be fooled. You are using an addictive substance to avoid feeling uncomfortable emotions.

Yet, we live in a culture where not poisoning yourself raises more questions than doing so. Where people ask, “What’s wrong?” if you say no to a drink.
THIS = INSANITY.

I wasn’t afraid of putting down the booze.
I was afraid of losing friends.
I was afraid of being judged.
I was afraid of being left out.
And most of all… I was afraid of what I would feel if I had nothing to numb the pain of my past.

I wasn’t addicted to alcohol.
I was addicted to the thing that kept the pain, trauma, and hurt at bay—so I didn’t have to face the shadows in my own closet.

But here’s what I now know: true freedom is on the other side of bringing it all into the light.
Healing doesn’t come from avoidance—it comes from presence, from feeling, from deep self-trust.

If you’re on the path to sobriety, or you feel the pull to break free but don’t know where to start—I am here for you.

💛 I am now accepting new clients for trauma healing and sobriety coaching. If you’re ready to release what’s holding you back and step into a life of clarity, peace, and empowerment, let’s work together.

📩 DM me, TEXT me or book a session today. You don’t have to do this alone. 💛

Speak to Yourself with Love 💛

If you wouldn’t say it to a friend, don’t say it to yourself.

The voice in your head is more powerful than you realize—it’s shaping your reality, moment by moment. Every thought, every word you whisper to yourself is either nurturing your growth or holding you back.

Your mind doesn’t distinguish between what’s real and what you repeatedly tell it. So when you say, “I’m not good enough” or “I can’t do this,” your brain believes you. But when you shift to asking, “How can I grow through this?” or “What’s possible for me?”—your mind begins to seek solutions, expansion, and healing.

🌿 Pay attention to your self-talk.
🌿 Would you speak to a dear friend the way you speak to yourself?
🌿 If not, it’s time for a gentle shift.

Your future self is being shaped by the words you choose today. Let them be kind. Let them be encouraging. Let them be full of love. 💛✨

03/21/2025

As You Heal, Life Will Shift—And That’s Okay 💛

As you grow and evolve, not everything or everyone will stay aligned with the healed version of you—and that’s okay.

Some people may struggle with the new boundaries you set. Others may no longer meet your energy or support your growth. Some may continue to trigger old wounds, making it clear that it’s time to lovingly step forward without them.

Even the way you once lived may no longer support the life you are creating. Maybe you once thrived in a fast-paced environment, but now your body is calling for stillness. Maybe you once built a life around pleasing others, but now you’re learning to honor your own needs.

These changes aren’t always easy. In fact, they often come with grief—one of the most painful, yet necessary, parts of healing.

💛 We grieve the years spent in survival mode.
💛 We grieve the unmet needs we’ve finally recognized.
💛 We grieve the versions of ourselves that once felt like home.

It’s natural to feel lonely at first, to feel distant from relationships that once felt familiar, or even to feel unsure about this new chapter. But here’s the truth—grief transforms.

✨ Over time, the grief turns into deep self-compassion.
✨ The loneliness shifts into inner peace.
✨ The sensitivity becomes profound empathy.

A gentle way to move through this? Support your nervous system. 🌿

Commit to your healing by dedicating time each day—just 10 minutes—to a practice that brings you back to yourself.

✨ Journaling
✨ Meditation
✨ Mindful movement or stretching
✨ Walking in nature
✨ Somatic healing practices
✨ Breathwork

There are no quick fixes, only gentle steps forward. Healing is a process, and the slow, intentional work creates the most sustainable changes.

The Gentle Truth About Trauma Healing 💛

If you’ve ever wondered why you can’t just think your way out of trauma, please know this—it’s not because you’re failing or broken.

Your brain isn’t designed to process trauma immediately after it happens. This is because trauma temporarily disrupts your prefrontal cortex—the part of your brain responsible for logic, decision-making, and rational thinking. When this happens, your nervous system shifts into survival mode, making it difficult to fully process what you’ve been through.

This can lead to:
✨ Persistent overthinking and anxiety
✨ Difficulty focusing or making decisions
✨ Emotional numbness or disconnection
✨ Feeling detached from reality
✨ Recurring nightmares or flashbacks
✨ Increased irritability or unexplained anger
✨ Sleep disturbances and exhaustion

But here’s the beautiful part: Your body knows how to heal. 🌿

True trauma healing happens through the body—not just the mind. Somatic healing gently guides your nervous system out of survival mode, releasing stored stress and bringing your brain-body connection back into balance.

As you restore this connection, you’ll begin to:
💛 Feel a deep sense of calm and clarity
💛 Experience relief from overthinking and emotional overwhelm
💛 Rebuild trust in yourself and your intuition
💛 Sleep more peacefully and wake up with renewed energy

Healing is not about “fixing” yourself—it’s about returning home to yourself.

💫 If you’re ready to release what’s been weighing you down and step into true emotional freedom, I invite you to work with me in Trauma Alchemy & Somatic Healing. Let’s create a path to healing that feels safe, nurturing, and deeply transformative. 💛

When you tell me you have a high pain tolerance, what I truly hear is…

💔 You’ve learned to endure because you had to.
💔 You’ve trained yourself to suppress what was never safe to express.
💔 You’ve adapted by disconnecting from your body’s signals to keep moving forward.

Having a high pain tolerance isn’t always a badge of strength—it’s often a sign of survival.

A nervous system that’s learned to override discomfort, silence its own needs, and push through at all costs. And while this resilience may have helped you in the past, it often comes at a cost.

Many who have a high tolerance for pain also experience:

✨ Delaying help – You wait until the pain (physical or emotional) is unbearable before seeking support.
✨ Minimizing discomfort – You downplay your struggles, telling yourself, “It’s not that bad.”
✨ Pushing through exhaustion – You keep going, even when your body is pleading for rest.
✨ Disconnection from the body – You struggle to notice tension, aches, or emotional cues until they feel overwhelming.
✨ Difficulty expressing emotions – You suppress your feelings, believing vulnerability is unsafe.
✨ A history of endurance – You’ve had to tolerate discomfort for so long that it feels normal—whether physically, emotionally, or both.

But here’s the truth, love—your ability to endure pain doesn’t mean you have to.

🌿 Healing isn’t about pushing through more; it’s about learning to feel safe enough to soften. It’s about recognizing that you no longer have to carry everything alone, that you deserve rest, care, and gentleness, too.

Do any of these patterns resonate with you?

✨ If you’re on a healing journey, this space is for you. You are worthy of deep healing, and I’m here to support you. 💛

It’s long been understood that emotions don’t just exist in our minds—they are deeply felt in our bodies. Think about how your stomach flutters with nervousness, how your cheeks flush with embarrassment, or how your whole body tingles with excitement.

A 2014 study even found that people across all cultures experience emotions in the body in similar ways. This is proof that the mind-body connection isn’t just a concept—it’s biological. It’s wired into us for survival.

✨ Here are four common places we store emotional stress—and why:

1. The Jaw 💬
Have you ever clenched your teeth in frustration? Or felt tension in your jaw after holding back your true feelings? The jaw is a common place for stored stress, especially for those who have felt silenced or had to “bite their tongue” in life. Over time, this can lead to teeth grinding, tension headaches, and TMJ dysfunction.

2. The Diaphragm 🌬️
Our breath is a direct reflection of our nervous system. When emotions are suppressed, the diaphragm contracts and tightens, leading to shallow breathing. Over time, this can keep us stuck in a state of fight-or-flight, making it harder for the body to relax and feel safe.

3. The Psoas Muscle 🏃‍♀️
This deep muscle connects the upper and lower body and is heavily involved in our stress response. When we feel threatened or overwhelmed, the psoas contracts—helping us run, brace, or freeze. But when emotional stress is ongoing, this muscle stays tight, leading to chronic lower back and hip pain.

4. The Pelvic Floor & Womb 🌿
The female pelvis is a sacred space—one that carries life, creativity, and deep emotion. From a young age, women are often conditioned to “suck in,” “stand tall,” and hold tension in their bodies. Add in the stress of societal expectations, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, and childbirth, and it’s no wonder so many women carry trauma and stored emotions in this space.

💛 The good news? Your body isn’t working against you—it’s holding onto these patterns because it hasn’t yet felt safe enough to let them go.

03/15/2025

💛 Your Body is Speaking to You—Are You Listening? 💛

Pain isn’t always just physical. Your body holds onto unprocessed emotions, and when they aren’t acknowledged, they manifest as symptoms.

🌿 That persistent back pain? It could be unexpressed anger or the weight of responsibilities you’ve been carrying.
🌿 The tension in your shoulders? A sign of stress, overwhelm, and the pressure to hold everything together.
🌿 Digestive issues? Your body’s response to fear, anxiety, or emotions you’ve been trying to suppress.
🌿 Chronic fatigue? The exhaustion of carrying unspoken pain for too long.

These symptoms aren’t random. They’re invitations—gentle (or sometimes loud) messages from your body asking you to go deeper. To slow down. To listen. To heal.

Ignoring them won’t make them go away. True relief comes from understanding what your body is trying to tell you and allowing yourself to process what has been left unspoken.

Your body is not the enemy—it’s your greatest ally in healing. Listen with love. Respond with compassion. You are worthy of feeling whole, inside and out. 💛✨

03/13/2025

💛 Are You in a Relationship… or Just in a Pattern?

It looks like love. It checks the right boxes. But deep down, something still feels off.

Maybe you…
💔 Feel alone, even when they’re right beside you
💔 Keep giving more, hoping they’ll finally meet you halfway
💔 Crave a deeper connection but can’t seem to bridge the gap

This isn’t just about finding the “right” person—it’s about what your nervous system allows you to experience in love.

If your body has never truly felt safe in deep connection, it may:
🌀 Keep you drawn to emotionally unavailable partners
🌀 Make you overwork for love that should be mutual
🌀 Leave you feeling restless, never fully satisfied

This isn’t your fault. But it is something you can change.

Your nervous system was shaped by past experiences—but it can be rewired for love that feels safe, reciprocal, and deeply fulfilling. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

💛 Break Free from Relationship Patterns That No Longer Serve You

You are not bound to the same relationship patterns forever. The way you communicate, connect, and navigate conflict is not simply “who you are”—it’s a reflection of what you’ve learned, often from your earliest experiences with love, safety, and connection.

But here’s the beautiful truth: You are not your past.

With self-awareness comes the power to choose differently. When you recognize how your past has shaped your present, you give yourself the gift of transformation. You can release old cycles, retrain your nervous system, and step into relationships that feel safe, reciprocal, and deeply nourishing.

Healing in relationships begins with healing within yourself. And you don’t have to do it alone.

💛 Becoming Her is a 10-week healing journey designed for women ready to break free from old wounds, reconnect with themselves, and build relationships from a place of wholeness and self-worth.

✨ Inside Becoming Her, you’ll receive:
