This year’s Women’s Camino Pilgrimage Retreat is officially full. 🤍

I’m so looking forward to walking alongside these incredible women in September. There’s something really special about this kind of experience…
intentional, supportive, and deeply meaningful.

If you’ve been feeling the pull toward this journey, I’ll be opening another retreat in May 2027 (Sarria to Santiago).

Dates coming soon.

If you’d like to be the first to hear when details are released send me a message

You can also explore details on my website (link in bio).

Buen Camino ✨

This is more than a pilgrimage. It’s a supported return to self.

As we walk the Camino de Santiago, we also tend to what’s unfolding within; transitions, clarity, boundaries, and next steps are quietly waiting to emerge.

This is where coaching and pilgrimage meet.

Inside this small intentional circle, you’ll find reflection, real conversation, and genuine sisterhood. You don’t have to carry it all alone here.

Only 2 spaces remain for September.

If you’re ready for movement, internally and externally, this journey is here for you.

Even though I’m sad to leave the Pleasant Street space of 12.5 years, it has served me well. And I’m excited for this new chapter.

In 2012, I moved my home and business on the same day to Newburyport just before the first snow storm of the season. I didn’t know it at the time, but that would soon prove to be one of the best decisions.

It was in this space that I grew my client base and found my niche. I expanded as a person and business owner.

After 20 years of coaching and mentoring, I obtained my certifications in Life Coaching, Neurolinguistic Programming and Trauma-Informed Coaching.

Intentionally blending all of the many hats I’d been wearing. I gained clarity on how I wanted to incorporate holistic nursing, coaching and bodywork.

With the brand refresh and an updated name, Sankofa Massage & Coaching became a practice integrating pain and injury based bodywork with the option of life and trauma recovery coaching.

And there is more to come..

See you at our new location:

I’m a couple of weeks late but WOW! I can’t believe it’s been 17 years since opening Sankofa Massage & Coaching (formally Sankofa Massage & Bodywork).

It’s been an incredible journey to see how my practice has evolved into what it is today.

I am so grateful for all of your support and commitment to yourselves to better your health in every aspect. Some of you have been with me since the very beginning and for some, not as long. No matter the length, I thank you for trusting and choosing me to be apart of that change.

Reflecting on 2021:
Before you begin making resolutions for the new year, I invite you to take some time to reflect on your accomplishments throughout 2021. They need not be big achievements. Small moments that made you proud are just as important as the big ones!

This week, I sat down and did some reflecting of the past year. Here are some questions that I asked myself and answered:

1. What was my biggest challenge in 2021 and how did I
overcome it?
2. How did I grow as a person over this past year?
3. What am I most proud of myself for in 2021? What was my
biggest accomplishment or milestone?

If you're open to sharing, I'd love to read your responses. Post below or message me your answers.

Celebrating 14 years in Business with a Brand Refresh

I know I’ve been absent over the past few months. I was in the mists of a brand refresh to reflect the Life and Trauma Coaching services that I offer.

September marked 14 years in business and a brand refresh was well overdue. This comes with an updated business name and a new website.

Sankofa Massage & Bodywork is now officially Sankofa Massage & Coaching

My inspiration for the website palette is the feedback from all of you. Throughout the years, many of you have commented on how you felt when you walked into the studio or how you felt after your sessions. So, I wanted my website to reflect that feeling…warm, non-judged, comfortable, safe and relaxed.

Take a peek around the new website and let me know what you think!

Happy International Women’s Day!

This photo was taken 2 years ago in Arizona. One day, I will tell the story behind this picture. For now, I will say that it was ME stepping into my POWER!
