Exciting news!! You know how last episode we dove deep into the importance of feeling anger and accepting what is?? Well... my world has completely shifted after I allowed myself to embody those two aspects again as this chapter of life was trying to come to a close. It's aways so funny to me how quickly things get to change when we remember the simplicity of feeling our feelings and being grateful for the present moment. I obviously still have my phases when I struggle with such things,...

On this episode, I share how anger and acceptance go hand in hand with healing. That once we allow ourselves to feel angry, we create space to embody acceptance about a situation; once we accept a situation without trying to control its natural cycle, we create space to allow anger to flow through. We cannot have one without the other. I share how I have been suppressing anger to the point that it has mirrored stagnation in my exterior world with the struggles I’ve been experiencing in...

I experienced a whole ass breakthrough in the midst of recording this episode. I had been feeling lost and confused for a while, but did not quite understand the extent of it. I was doing my best to trust the process. Then a few weeks ago multiple healers that I had crossed paths with were telling me, "Remember who you are." That statement definitely triggered me! My immediate thought was, "Uhhh pretty sure I remember who tf I am..." But obviously, there were some things I needed to remember...

Whaddup, I'm back after a little bit of a break! Not going to lie, perfectionsim got the best of me there. The way I was editing each episode's audio and visual was taking up so much time with how I was recording because I was fairly particular over what I was saying. Now I have decided to show up, speak, and not edit, which gives me back SO MUCH TIME!  Since it's been a little over two months, I wanted to give you all an update of what has occurred in my life! I go over the topics of my...

Sounds like a cruel joke, right? That the way to get free is to own the thing that has us feeling imprisoned. I get it. In this episode, I discuss the first time I owned my suffering, accepted my darkness (vs just facing it), and as a result, each time I continue to feel my pain, feelings of liberation follow. That's the dance. Darkness and liberation leading the way on this earth game, but we DO have control of which one takes the lead... darkness or liberation. It is time for you to...

Welcome to the inception episode of my spiritual awakenings!! This is a juicy one. In this episode, I reflect on a previous episode I released back in 2021 that discussed my first ever spiritual awakening that happened back in 2018. So, this is JAM PACKED with past versions of self, differing persepctives, and evidence of evolution. Spiritual awakenings are powerful shifts in our existence that shake up our healing journeys. When we decide to surrender to the transformation our soul is asking...

In this episode, I discuss what the difference is between Self-Development and the Healing Journey, why it's important to incorporate both, and how to be minful of when we start to use self-development practices as a means of distraction. I share the importance of establishing a baseline before diving into the depths of the healing journey. From my experience, I reveal how I spiraled into maladaptive coping mechanisms for nearly a year as a result of facing my darkness for the first time...

What a journey i have been experiencing in finding my footing as a podcast host. It's such an odd phenomenon knowing that I'm meant to show up on this platform, experiencing resistance, yet figuring out a way to show up anyway. This process has been teaching me presence at a new layer and an appreciation for enjoying the journey. I truly feel grateful for this present moment and I am grateful for you all that are witnessing the process :) Get access to my virtual FREE Somatic Activated...

I did not plan on publicly talking about my week, but the message behind the swirly events that unfolded were too potent to not share. I experienced multiple shocks to my nervous system and it's because of my somatic practice that I had the capacity to exist in the multitude of it all, remain present, and not slip into victim mentality or the freeze response. This felt like a pivotal moment for the internal feelings of abandonment that I can experience because it would have been real easy to...

We all start somewhere, right? I am doing my best to lead by example in showing up with what I have, with the understanding that it will get better and better the more consistent I am. Since June, it's been a constant evolution of figuring it out after restarting, letting it be messy, and making shit happen. In this episode, I speak to what mindset shifts I've been embodying along with landing in gratitude for this present moment.  Get on my email list, here, to have access to the virtual...

Last week I provided guidance on when it could be time to face your darkness. Revealing 4 different ways of existing for you to get curious about, and if you related to any of it, that would be your indicator to start diving deeper within yourself. This week, I shared my process. How it started for me in facing my darkness, what I immediately did to express myself, and the seed planting of awareness that was able to occur.  Key points: Making something beautiful out of something terrible...

Living in a society that glorifies disconnection, it can be tricky to recognize when it's time to face our darkness. So many disharmonious things have been normalized that we have been conditioned to turn a blind eye on tending to our internal world. In this episode, I break down 4 talking points to get curious about. That if you experience these 4 things, it is time to face your darkness. It is your body signaling you to pay attention. How present do you feel throughout your day? Do you...

Consistency is difficult, my friends. That's really all I have for you in this moment. I feel resistance residing right in the middle of my chest currently. It's as if I'm on the brink of something and I'm being asked to break through the threshold. I know this feeling well as an athlete, but as an entrepreneur, this is new. So, with this awareness, I continue to show up, and trust the unfolding. I will be hosting virtual based Somatic Activated Healing classes on a regular basis starting in...

In this episode, I briefly talk about what generational trauma is and then go into depth about the harsh reality of why it still continues. The topic of joy is something I have been focusing on with bringing awareness to what is waiting for us on the other side of diving into our darkness. But what if we do all of this hard work and this life we thought would be here never shows up for us? THIS is what I address today. I also share how I have created a course that can shorten the gap when...

7 seems to be quite the number! Did you know that it only takes 7 years for the body to create all new cells? Did you know that it can take an orange seed 7 years of growth before it bears fruit? Did you know that it can take at least 7 years after a traumatic incident before the psyche is ready to face the past and heal? This intricate time frame of 7 years had me thinking... I have been facing my darkness for going on 7 years, so what the f**k happens now? Tune in to hear all the...

The paradox of grief... Have you heard of it? Grief and love coexist, and as you allow yourself to feel grief to its fullest capacity, it strengthens your capacity to emobdy love. One cannot exist without the other. In this episode, I talk about what I experienced somatically AFTER I chose to drop into my body the day before my aunt's funeral. (vs last week when I shared what happened at the funeral which is when the universe served me some humble pie) And let me tell ya... choosing to drop...

I've discovered that family always seems to be the barometer of how integrated your healing is that you've been working on. If you consider yourself the black sheep of your family and that you're so "woke" now, but cannot fathom the idea of being around family or your "woke-ness" completely unravels when you're around family... you're not as woke as you think your are. Family will quickly serve you a piece of humble pie because your lineage naturally mirrors back the programmed behaviors...

Grief is a lovely teacher that shows no mercy because when you peel back the initial layers of pain, you are able to recognize the beauty that she offers. In this episode, I share how it was grief that shoved me back into alignment with work. It can be so easy to get caught up in the matrix responsibilities we put on ourselves, slowly forgetting what truly matters in life. Grief will remind you that life is fleeting, and we only have so much time before we die. So, if your life is made up of...

In this episode I shared a way that a somatic release can surface during a Somatic Activated Healing segment. This type of release can be difficult to explain, but with my training I am able to break it down for you so you can logically understand the miracle that takes place. The important thing is to not judge what is surfacing. To welcome it with an open heart, ask what it is trying to show you, and allow yourself to feel through what follows while you are being lead through a SAH Method...

In this episode, I share how it is more important to show up and be seen in the now than it is to have it all figured out or to perfect your delivery before you decide to show up. I am quite literally showing up with a s****y microphone and sitting cris cross applesauce on the floor of my new studio space that has zero furniture. If I were to have waited to create podcast episodes again or creating instagram content as a Movement Healer until everything was perfectly set up it would have been...

Well, just 3 months after receiving my Akashic Record reading that put a big ass mirror in front of my face, I decided to completely change my life. It was becoming blantantly obvious how the career path that I was still on was pulling me out of alignment, so I finally let it all go. I let go of being an Art Therapist and diving into my calling of being a Movement Healer. My soul was screaming at me to stop making myself small, to utilize my gifts of healing through connection with the body....
