We're always in such a hurry.

Hurry to get through the workday.
Hurry to answer the text.
Hurry to get to the next thing.

Somewhere along the way, we forgot that slowing down is part of living.

Tea & Tarot is an invitation to do just that.

To sit with a warm cup of tea.
To meet new people.
To have conversations that actually matter.
To slow down long enough to notice what's happening inside of you.

Tarot has never been about predicting your future to me.

It's about reflection.

The cards have a beautiful way of asking the questions we often avoid asking ourselves. They invite curiosity instead of certainty and remind us that we already carry so much wisdom—we just don't always make time to listen.

If you've ever been curious about tarot but felt intimidated, this gathering is for you. No experience needed. Just come as you are.

Tickets are officially live.
You can grab yours through the link in my bio.

I hope you'll join us for an afternoon of tea, conversation, community, and a little bit of mystery.

Every now and then, we need a reason to slow down.

To put our phones away.
To wrap our hands around a warm cup of tea.
To sit across from people who are willing to have real conversations.

Tea & Tarot was born from that desire.

Not to predict the future, but to create space for reflection.

Tarot has a beautiful way of inviting us inward. The cards don't tell us who we are—they help us ask better questions, notice what we've been overlooking, and reconnect with the wisdom we've always carried within us.

Whether you're completely new to tarot or simply craving an afternoon that feels a little slower, a little more intentional, and a lot more connected, I'd love for you to join us.

08/11/2026

I spent most of my life making sure no one felt left out.

I’d invite the person standing alone.
I’d listen when no one else would.
I’d make space at the table.
I’d remember birthdays, check in, and carry the emotional weight because I knew what it felt like to be forgotten.

Then one day, I realized something.

I was so busy making sure everyone else belonged… I never noticed I was the one being left out.

That realization stung.

Not because people owed me anything, but because I had spent years abandoning myself in hopes that someone else would choose me.

Healing asked me to do something different.

To become the person I’d been waiting for.

To include myself.
To comfort myself.
To celebrate myself.
To protect myself.
To love myself without needing permission from anyone else.

That’s what reparenting has looked like for me.

Not becoming someone new.

Becoming the person I needed when I was little.

And if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this:

The love you’ve spent your whole life giving away was never meant to bypass you.

08/11/2026

When you’ve spent your life learning that asking for help comes with disappointment, rejection, guilt, or having your needs used against you… you learn to stop needing.

You become the one who figures it out.
The one who carries everything.
The one who says, “I got it,” even when you’re exhausted.
The one who would rather struggle alone than risk being let down.

And for a long time, you might even call that strength.

But healing has a funny way of showing you that doing everything alone isn’t always independence.

Sometimes it’s protection.

Sometimes it’s the part of you that learned, “If I don’t depend on anyone, no one can disappoint me.”

But slowly, you’ll begin to learn something different.

You can be capable and supported.
You can be strong and allow someone to show up for you.
You can have your own back without believing you have to carry everything by yourself.

Because maybe the goal was never to need no one.

Maybe the goal was to finally feel safe enough to let the RIGHT people in.

People often ask me how I became an intuitive healer. The truth is, this work found me long before I ever chose it.

It was born from my own journey of learning to live with the effects of Complex PTSD, anxiety, and depression. When you’ve spent years surviving, it’s natural to want healing to happen overnight. We want to fix the pain, silence the thoughts, and finally feel free.

But healing doesn’t work that way.

It asks for courage to sit with the parts of yourself you’ve spent a lifetime avoiding. It asks for patience to gently peel back the layers that once protected you but eventually became the walls that kept you disconnected from yourself. Layer by layer, you begin to understand that those patterns weren’t who you were…..they were how you survived.

Today, I don’t hold space because I have all the answers. I hold space because I’ve walked through the darkness myself. I know what it feels like to believe you’ll never find your way out. And I also know that healing isn’t about becoming someone new…it’s about slowly remembering who you were before the world taught you to survive.

If my journey has taught me anything, it’s this-healing isn’t a race. It’s a lifelong relationship with yourself. And every layer you have the courage to uncover is one step closer to coming home.

We spend so much of our lives rushing from one responsibility to the next that we rarely give ourselves permission to simply pause.

To breathe.
To reflect.
To gather with people who remind us that we were never meant to navigate life alone.

Tea & Tarot was created as an invitation to do exactly that.

This isn't about predicting the future.

It's about learning the language and mystery of tarot as a tool for self-reflection. It's about asking meaningful questions, seeing yourself from a different perspective, and discovering the wisdom that already lives within you.

We'll sip tea, slow down, share conversation, and explore the cards together in a welcoming, judgment-free space where curiosity is celebrated and connection comes naturally.

Every now and then, our bodies ask for what our minds have been too busy to notice.

A chance to slow down.

A chance to exhale.

A chance to simply be held.

I'm so excited to invite you back for another afternoon of AcuDetox & Sound Healing at North of Ordinary Collective.

This gathering was created for anyone feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or simply longing to reconnect with themselves in a gentle, supportive space.

AcuDetox, also known as the NADA protocol, uses five small acupuncture points in the ear to help regulate the nervous system. Many people experience a greater sense of calm, improved sleep, reduced anxiety, emotional balance, and a renewed ability to simply be present.

As your body begins to soften, you'll be immersed in the healing vibrations of crystal singing bowls during a restorative sound bath. Sound healing invites the mind to quiet, the body to rest, and creates space for emotions that words sometimes cannot reach.

There is something incredibly brave about choosing yourself.

About carving two hours out of your week to say, "My well-being matters, too."

Healing doesn't always happen through doing more. Sometimes it begins the moment we give ourselves permission to receive.

Healing isn't always loud.

Sometimes it looks like making the decision to stop running from yourself.

To step into a room where no one expects you to have it all together. To soften your armor. To breathe a little deeper. To finally give your nervous system permission to exhale.

There is something incredibly brave about choosing yourself in a world that constantly asks you to keep pushing through.

Join me on Sunday, August 2nd | 1:00–3:00 PM at North of Ordinary Collective for an afternoon of AcuDetox & Sound Healing—two gentle yet powerful modalities that work together to support healing from the inside out.

✨ AcuDetox (NADA Ear Acupuncture) may help:
• Calm the nervous system
• Reduce stress and anxiety
• Improve sleep
• Ease emotional overwhelm
• Support the body's natural ability to restore balance

✨ Sound Bath using various instruments like Gong, Chimes, Ocean Drum, Rainstick, and 7 chakra tuned Crystal Sound Bowls invites your body into deep rest through vibration and frequency, helping quiet the mind, release stored tension, and create space for emotional processing without needing to find the words.

You don't need to be "good at meditating."
You don't need to be healed.
You don't need to have anything figured out.

You only have to be willing to show up.

Because every act of healing begins with one quiet decision:
I am worthy of my own care.

07/21/2026

I stopped chasing people.

Not as a test.
Not to see who would notice.

I was just tired.

Tired of carrying relationships that only existed because I kept carrying them.

Tired of always being the one to text first.
The one to check in.
The one to remember birthdays.
The one making excuses for why people couldn’t show up for me the way I showed up for them.

When I stopped…

The silence was deafening.

At first, I was angry.

Angry that I had poured so much of myself into people who never seemed to notice when I was drowning.

Angry that I had spent years making everyone else feel loved while quietly wondering why I still felt so alone.

But underneath the anger was grief.

Because it wasn’t really about them.

It was about the little girl inside me who learned that love wasn’t freely given.

Love had to be earned.

Be helpful.
Be easy.
Don’t ask for too much.
Don’t make anyone uncomfortable.
Take care of everyone else first.

If you become indispensable…
they won’t leave.

So I spent decades confusing self-sacrifice with love.

I didn’t know I was abandoning myself because it felt so familiar.

It felt like home.

Healing wasn’t learning how to make people choose me.

It was realizing I had spent my entire life waiting for someone else to give me the love I kept refusing to give myself.

No amount of overgiving will convince someone to love you.

No amount of shrinking yourself will make someone choose you.

And the people who only loved the version of you that abandoned herself…

Will almost always disappear when you stop.

That’s not your loss.

That’s your evidence that healing is working!

Keep F*cking Going!!

There are moments that remind me exactly why I do this work.

This past week, I had the honor of facilitating a sound bath for participants through a nonprofit dedicated to ending sexual assault. It was a privilege to hold space alongside an organization that is committed to supporting survivors with such compassion and care.

Healing doesn’t always happen through words. Sometimes what we’ve carried lives in the body, beyond language, waiting for a space that feels safe enough to soften. While every person’s journey is different, sound can offer an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and simply be present with ourselves.

Witnessing people give themselves permission to rest, breathe, and receive is one of the greatest gifts of this work. I’m continually humbled by the courage it takes to show up for your own healing, and grateful to play even a small role in that journey.

Thank you to this incredible organization for trusting me to be part of your mission. It is an honor I don’t take lightly. 🤍✨
