Sometimes we forget.

We are on autopilot for so long, we don’t even notice.
As family or friends, we stop asking meaningful questions.

“How are you?”
“Fine.”

Fine is not even an emotion!

Then our kids learn this unintentional but disconnected way and becomes their norm too.

Relationships can feel dangerous, unsafe and untrusting, especially with how the world has unfolded over the last few years.

Keeping people distant, staying quiet, suppressing the real feelings and emotions might feel more safe, “it’s better that way”.

Except it all catches up.

We are biologically wired for connection.

Meaningful relationships, the ones that ask those hard questions, the people that see you beyond what is in front of them…those safe, trusting and reliable relationships are important for survival.

We don’t need many, just a few, to help us through those dark times and share our celebrations.

Let us experience these relationships and let’s model this for our kids. Be that attuned friend or family member that feels comfortable going deeper.

Somatic therapy with IFS can be the work that makes all the difference.

I repeat this gently because I know how deep this runs.

We are biologically wired for connection - emotional, physical, mental and spiritual.
From within the womb, our nervous system begins to pick up signals of safety and danger. As an infant, it organizes around attachment, especially with parents, siblings, and later partners. Throw friends, coaches and teachers into the mix. Seeking closeness, belonging and repair isn’t a weakness. It’s survival.

If like me, you've found yourself over-explaining, over-giving, over-tolerating...hoping THIS TIME, it will feel different, that makes sense. Your system is trying to restore connection (remember biologically), and it's doing what it's designed to do.

Except when that moment in time arrives, when the chase stops being about connection and starts becoming self-abandonment.

When your body stays tense.
When boundaries disappear.
When you feel like you're shrinking, you're sensing more anxiety, and more unsure after every interaction.
When you’re working harder for the relationship than the relationship is working for you.

That's not failure, that's information.

What we can offer ourselves is the offer of a self-respecting pause, a pause in the pursuit. And not out of bitterness or anger, but out of care for the parts of us that have been trying so hard to be chosen.

This doesn’t mean you stop loving.
It means you stop chasing.

And when you stop chasing, something quiet and empowering can happen.
Your energy comes back to you.
Your system softens.
And you return to building relationships, including the one and most important, with yourself - the ones that don’t require you to disappear, stay small or silent.

If this lands, you’re not cold. You’re healing.

Hi, I’m Sabrina. 🤍

I work with thoughtful, loving, capable people who everyone would describe as having it all together and looking so happy.

Except inside, they feel overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, fearful, reactive, or just tired of holding it all together.

Life can get hard, confusing, and disappointing, often showing up as a challenge in our relationships with partners and family, and especially in parenting, where old patterns surface in the moments we least expect.

Through somatic work and parts (IFS), we build safety in the body, understand protective patterns, and shift from survival mode into more presence, steadiness, and relationships that feel more honest and connected.

You’re not broken. You’re protected.
And you don’t have to do this alone.

A lot has changed since I began serving clients. For those who have been with me from the start - thank you. And for new followers - thank you too.

More to come in 2026. Be sure you're following.

I’m annoyed and concerned!

I’m observing many one sided experiences being projected into this space as instructions to not pursue “fill in the blank”, whatever is “trending”.

This is upsetting me because therapy, counselling or coaching can be beneficial for individuals and some people contemplating reaching out end up not because the spell casted upon viewers creates fear or increases fear. This is irresponsible.

Are there unprofessional, misguided and even dangerous therapists, coaches, and counsellors? Yes, there are. Just like there are insensitive, thoughtless, inconsiderate, unsafe, dangerous people.

Remember that no person should tell you what to do, especially not the professional you’re seeking help from.
That includes every profession!

Yet, we have been conditioned from an early age to just do what people tell us so it’s hard for some people to know the difference (Sometimes this is the work in itself! :) ).

Support involves exploring and understanding why you’re feeling what you’re feeling. That doesn’t mean cut off and end any relationship (with the exception of physical safety) and yet it could…if YOU know the reason for your choice costs you more than what you gain.

It’s not easy to arrive here.
It’s not overnight.
It’s not a 6 week program.
It’s not self-help.

It is a safe place.
Without judgment.
It’s processing what’s going on beneath the layers with someone who has training to help YOU get there. If you’re feeling pulled, rather than invited, this could be risky.
If it feels safe, even if you’re being invited to perspectives that may challenge you, growth is meant to be uncomfortable but not impossible or unattainable.

Trusting yourself is key. Remember you can have free consultations, ask questions, trial it out and even change your mind! Just talk it out with someone.
Cause leaving it up to an algorithm to inform you by the same messages, could be the very thing keeping you stuck.

With care,
Sabrina

Well guys…I’ll be popping in some more but not because of any resolutions! 😆. More to come on this but for today:

If resolutions motivate you, great!
If they create more stress, drop them!

Let your personal promises be because YOU want it or them - because they align with your truth, your values.

No big set up, no big announcements (especially when you don’t want to listen to your accountability partners anyways) and not when you’re fully ready…or the guilt cycle will just layer.

Be motivated because you matter and because your family matters.

Take your time.

At this point in my life, I've learned what living well means. It is knowing when to hold on - and when to gently let go.

There is only so much one can do in relationships where the stories being told are narrated from an attacker, a denier, a judger, that person who is unwilling to witness you and actively listen to how their actions or behaviours have harmed you.

It's natural and so instinctive to sway.
There’s wisdom in staying and there’s wisdom in walking away.
Sometimes we cling because it’s familiar, it feels safe and comfortable.
Other times, we release because we’ve grown.

Holding on can be an act of love.
Letting go can be, too.

The art is in learning to pause long enough to ask:
🪾 Is this still serving me?
🌳 Am I holding from fear or from love?
🌱 What would my nervous system choose if it felt safe?

Whether it’s a belief, a boundary, a relationship, or a version of yourself, know you don’t need to rush any decision.
What you do need, though, is a space to explore it.

Living well isn’t about having it all figured out.
It’s about feeling your way through with honesty, gently, and with your whole heart.

It’s been a week.

When parents or humans in general, are moving through their day to day lives with fear,
you are creating disorder from stress within your body,
which effects your brain,
which effects your behaviour,
which effects your relationships
and affects how you are perceived including those who love you or want to love you the most.

And yeah, it affects your physical health too.

Think about this message for a moment.

If you’re ready, reach out.

Trained in somatic therapy, trauma and grief to support parents or adult children who want relationships in their life to improve.

Don’t forget, I have a group starting September 23. Maybe that’s where you start.
It doesn’t matter. As long as you start somewhere.

09/09/2025

Some signs are loud.
Some are quiet, subtle.

They can look like:
👉🏻 Overthink texts (then don’t send them)
👉🏻 Say yes and within seconds feel regret
👉🏻 Carry guilt for simply needing space
👉🏻 Can’t remember the last time you spoke freely without inhibition

If this sounds like you - you’re not alone or “crazy”.
You’re aware.
Lean into the in-between.

✨Learn about your nervous system and how it plays a role in the way you perceive your experiences and relationships.

✨Become comfortable with speaking up, or creating boundaries from a place of truth not anger.

✨ Take space to respond and honour what is meaningful to you vs reacting to please or protect.

Permission To Be is a 10-week small group for women who are ready to explore, unveil and become curious about values and fulfillment. No rushing.

You don’t need a plan. Just a place to begin.

We start soon. Link in bio to register.
DM your questions.

08/26/2025

So let’s clear this up.

Permission to Be is not: ❌A fix-yourself program ❌Another goal-setting challenge ❌A space to hustle your healing

You’re not here to perform. You’re not here to push past your limits. You’re here because you’re already aware, you’re just not sure what comes next - it happens.

✅ This group is about slowing down, tuning in, and exploring what’s true for you without pressure, without performance.

You don’t have to feel ready. You just have to feel the pull and listen.

We start soon. Link in bio to learn more.

An invitation to read my latest blog on the various ways cancel culture is manifesting in relationships.
Learn 5 strategies to support dealing with judgment, comparison and cancel culture.

Helpful advice for teens, too, if you're a parent!

Listening is not the same as hearing. It's not over-talking or just agreeing. Listening is expanding not only your ears, but also your eyes. Listen to see more.

If you behaved in a way that separated you from your values (or who you want to be remembered as, known for, how you sincerely want them to feel), then your actions were a mistake. You can choose differently!

Your style of communication will change with each child, sure, we are all unique individuals. When you parent in alignment with your values, the message doesn't.

Easy does it. Your best ten years ago was far different than your best yesterday. Keep learning and growing to foster healthy connections with yourself and the people most important to you.

08/23/2025

How did I get here?

This was the life I signed up for.
The one I worked hard to build.
The one I thought I wanted.
The one I dreamed of, once.

And yet... something feels off.

You’re doing all the things - showing up for others, holding it all together, keeping up - but inside, there’s a quiet ache you can’t ignore.

You ask yourself:

Why does it still feel like something's missing?

Why do I feel disconnected when everything looks fine?

What happened to me in all of this?

If you’ve ever whispered “Is this it?” while smiling on the outside — you’re not alone.

This is often the moment where real healing begins. Not because something is broken — but because something inside you is stirring.

Longing.
Questioning.
Ready.

Ready to come home to yourself.

✨

If this resonates, it might be time to pause and listen in. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
