Who I am & how I got here…
Libra Sun- Aries Moon-Taurus Rising |Human Design Projector | Life Path 6
If I had to describe myself in three parts, they would be:
Part Mystic - I believe in all things we can’t see. I believe in karma, reincarnation, astrology, numerology, meant-to-be’s, serendipity, Human Design, signs from the Universe, etc. There is no denying any of this for me, on a deep visceral level.
Part Themis - the goddess of law, order, and justice. I feel global human pain deeply. I don’t comprehend when people say they don’t watch/read the news. I will always ask the hard questions and share the difficult truth. I stand for equity, representation, and integrity.
And, part panda -It’s so hard to choose what animal I most relate to, but for now it’s a panda. Tender, playful, loves to eat and sleep, and loves being held. Simple.
Where I am…
I’m turning 40 next year. I believe that forty is an opportunity to be reborn and come home to ourselves in massive, life-altering ways. And I already feel it.
After two decades of suffering from chronic and unresolvable illness, I’m finally healing. I’ve spent the last two years completely dismantling my own life. I’ve interrogated long-standing beliefs, ways of being, relationships, business practices - all of it- and rebuilt my life from the ground up.
It was brutal at times. But as my favorite saying goes - you can’t put whipped cream on top of shit. So I took my life to the studs and am building it out of my dream materials.
“One of the big goals I had this year was to feel freedom, expression and love. I don’t give myself a lot of opportunities to do that, but I always felt that way after talking to you.”
Where I’m going…
I’ve been coaching in some capacity for 15 years! My first two (and only) corporate jobs were as a wellness director inside of organizations. This was my first exposure to seeing how alike all of us really are and that our struggles aren’t unique; we just need someone to actually see us and be willing to guide us forward.
Once I realized the corporate environment wasn’t where I’d thrive, I spent the next decade immersed in studying yoga pedagogy, communication courses, leadership and facilitation, and started two successful yoga-based businesses. I’ve had the privilege of teaching in prisons, women’s shelters, youth programs, schools, and even the slums of Nairobi, Kenya. These unique experiences shaped so much of who I am today and taught me how to be with anything and anyone.
In 2019, after over a decade of running a business with my husband, it was time to venture on my own. I wanted so deeply to work with women on an intimate and transformative level. And here we are. Holding space for, mirroring, guiding and asking the hard questions is my JAM.
Earlier this year I was officially certified through the Ethical Coaching Collective and acquired a whole new skillset in hypnosis and brain retraining. This has become the bedrock of my work along with deep embodiment practices, nervous system regulation techniques, and communication.
Writing is a balm for me. I’m obsessed with language, story-telling, crafting deep journal prompts and writing love letters to my inner circle. You’ll find my writing in everything I do, from the journal deck I created, my Substack page, and my book (in progress)!
Practice an emotional state until it becomes a neural trait.
“Holy moly - what a way to spend an hour and a half. Feeling such spaciousness after our session.”
Sometimes we just need someone else to witness our magic.
Let’s chat to see if we’re a hell yes fit for working together.
