Go love on yourself like you were a charming child.
Next time you’re feeling like a bitch, maybe think about it this way instead: “My inner child is having a tantrum right now.”

And then do what you do for a tantruming child. You don’t reason with them. You validate, set boundaries, and nurture them.

Start with the easy stuff like mentally taking your inner child’s hand and saying “I see how upset you are babe, that makes sense.” And then nurture yourself with a few deep breaths, a couple minutes laying down, or a big glass of water.

Once your nervous system has calmed down, THEN you can try to understand what happened, but the first step is always care.

It’s time we stop abandoning ourselves for others. Care for yourself first.

Before I started doing this I would get so swept away when my kids were dysregulated, but because I practice nurturing myself I don’t snap so much when they are struggling.

We’ll be talking about all things Inner Child Healing related.
I’ll guide you through identifying some of the things the critic living in your head says like:

🚩 “I don’t want to bother anyone. I should be able to figure it out on my own”
🚩 "I can’t do that! It would be selfish”
🚩 and even, “I’m not good with money”

We’ll explore where those voices came from and whether they’re even still helpful. Ultimately, we’ll talk about how to work with these parts to create more confidence, joy, and connection in your life.

This discussion is for you if you’re a woman, femme, or q***r identified person and you’re looking to connect with others around personal growth.
I’m always delighted to see what emerges from these events.
I learn so much from you all!
I can’t wait to see you there!

💡"You have to grapple with them that brung ya." Inner child healing, what is it and why does it improve shame resilience? (inspired by the work of Brene Brown)

💬 What's that voice in your head telling you today?
"I'm not good at art." "I can't do that — it's selfish!" "I LOVE that dress but I can't pull it off."

Sound familiar? These sneaky one-liners keep so many of us playing small — and most of them aren't even originally ours. They're echoes. Borrowed beliefs from childhood, from watching the adults around us, from wounds we didn't know we were carrying.

At this month's Devyne Women+ Discussion Event, we're diving into a prompt from Brené Brown's Rising Strong:

"You have to grapple with them that brung ya."

We'll explore where these inner critics come from, how they keep you stuck, and how working with your Inner Child can help you step into a more empowered, Heck Yes! kind of life. 🙌

No need to have read the book — most people haven't, and you'll fit right in.

Why is it so important to set boundaries anyway?

Boundaries are the distance from which you can love yourself and someone else at the same time.
They keep you from feeling pi**ed off and resentful.
They help you feel connected and trust yourself and others.
And they protect your time and energy for what truly feeds you.

Healing from trauma, chronic illness, and anxiety requires stepping into the role of parent in your own life, and boundaries are the ground rules.

But making a boundary enforceable can feel really yucky if that’s new for you. Creating low-drama, empowering boundaries can take some practice, but trust me it is so worth it!
My clients are often surprised by how easy it is once they finally work up the courage to do it, because all safe people respect your clear & enforceable boundaries, either immediately or after a little practice*.

Boundaries are a critical part of the work we do in the Embodied Confidence Method as my clients grow into their healthier, more confident, and empowered selves.

If you’re curious about how help with your boundaries could radically shift your confidence, health, and relationships, schedule a free Embodiment Consultation to learn more about my 6 week and 4 month coaching containers.

*Quick note on safety: If you feel genuinely unsafe setting a boundary with someone, this is important to discuss with a trained professional like a coach or therapist to assess whether this is your past conditioning limiting you or if there may be dangerous backlash. All safe people will respect your boundaries after some practice, without pouting, silent treatment, or retaliation. If those behaviors or violence are present, it’s important to talk to a professional to make sure you are supported.

True apologies include a plan for better harmony in the future AND are followed by changed behavior.

This is true between people and it's true with yourself.

Making amends is important but if you don't follow it with a plan for change, then you're essentially agreeing to be upset about it again next time (YUCK!).

That part can be hard and too often we settle for metaphorically "kicking the can down the road." Learning to take accountability with yourself and with your loved ones creates more closeness and trust but it's a skill many of us never learned.

Tomorrow is the next DWSG event!🎉

Mar 5 | 7–8pm — Discussion Circle
“Navigating the In-Between: Growing Between Who I Was and Who I’m Becoming.”

Painted egg seed bombs

It would be wonderful if transitions were clean, uncomplicated affairs:
I’m done with sweets ✅ *cravings gone*
I’m totally done second-guessing myself and able to authentically express myself ✅
We elected new people who will instantly implement all their campaign promises ✅

But it doesn’t work like that does it?

Instead, it’s messy. This happens because our lives are interwoven with habits, beliefs, and the systems we’ve built around us (i.e. community, work, governance, family).

When you have an epiphany, your beliefs change, but all your habits and systems stay the same, there’s a lot of friction pushing you back into the old beliefs. And when you change your habits without updating your beliefs and systems the new habits don't stick

So what do you do when the will to change is there—when the old way has overstayed its welcome—but the new way isn’t solid yet?

That’s what we’ll be discussing Thursday, March 5th at the next Devyne Women+ Social Group gathering. We’ll share our lived experiences, glean gems of wisdom together, and I’ll share some of my favorite tips and tools for creating change that sticks without judging ourselves for the pace of change.

Then on March 14th we’ll be decorating egg-seed bombs. These beautifully decorated eggs will contain herb and flower seeds that you could crack open in your own garden or plant somewhere else (gorilla gardening anyone?).

The sneaky mindset problem behind “I deserve this.”

Oftentimes when we justify behavior we think is a treat, like buying ice cream, a new expensive sweater, or an extra hour of TV at night, it’s because part of us is rebelling against responsibility.

There’s nothing wrong with treating yourself, but we have to be aware of our motives. I use the phrase “I deserve this” as a little yellow flag to get curious. I ask myself 3 questions:

💫Based on previous experiences, how will my body feel?
💫Will I judge myself for this later (aka does it hurt my self relationship)?
💫What excites me about this treat?

These questions help you identify what need is actually underneath the urge to splurge.

ALL of us need a little break sometimes, in fact my inner child frequently throws tantrums about all the work she has to do. When she’s craving ice cream, (re)Heated Rivalry, and staying up late scrolling on socials I know she’s got some need I’m not meeting.

This is an invitation to pay attention to yourself because the truth is what feels like a treat is completely unique to you in each moment. Sometimes it feels like a treat that I have 2 hours free to write for my business. Other times it feels like a treat to take a nap. Sometimes it feels like a treat to go for a run. And other times it feels like a treat to sleep in an extra hour.

The name of the game is really to trust yourself and get really good at hearing the signals your body and inner child are sending you. Because you need play, just like you need everything else. And you deserve to have it. Now you just have to learn to give it to yourself.

That’s exactly what we do around here. So if you are trying to up-level your self-care and deepen your intuition you’re in the right place! Sign up for my newsletter for more tools and insights to live bravely as your authentic self.

Autoimmune disease isn’t just about inflammation—it’s about what your body has been holding for too long.

Many women are conditioned to suppress needs, smooth conflict, and carry emotional labor without rest. Over time, that suppression shows up in the body.

From a Chinese Medicine lens, chronic over-giving disrupts healthy flow and boundaries—eventually turning the immune system inward.

✨ The good news? These patterns are learned.
✨ And they can be unlearned.

This is why my work focuses on acupuncture, nervous system regulation, and boundaries—not just symptom management. That’s how I’ve helped myself and many other women manage or even resolve autoimmune symptoms.

If this resonates, I’d love to support you. DM me or schedule a free Embodiment Consultation to get started.
