You can love your life and still feel strangely disconnected inside it.

Or perhaps not disconnected… but not fully alive.

This is something I understand more personally than I sometimes say out loud. There was a time when I had created so many of the things I had wished for - meaningful work, growth, beauty, love.

And yet I remember moments of thinking: Why does my life look so full, but feel slightly muted from the inside?

I wasn’t unhappy. But I wasn’t deeply lit up either.

There was a subtle dullness, a constant holding, a body that rarely fully softened. Functional. Capable. Together. But not fully surrendered to joy, pleasure, rest, sensation.

No one really talks about this space. Because from the outside, life is “good.” And it is.

But internally it can feel like joy not landing all the way, pleasure requiring effort, rest not fully restoring, a quiet sense of “something is missing.”

Not because you’re ungrateful. Not because you’re doing anything wrong.

But because a body that learned to stay slightly guarded cannot fully open to aliveness.

Aliveness requires safety. It requires a nervous system that feels held enough to soften, to feel, to receive.

This is the place so many women arrive at quietly. Successful. Self-aware. Grateful. And still longing to feel more turned on by life. More present. More sensual. More alive inside their own experience.

The Temple of the Feminine Heart is for that space. Not for fixing. Not for pushing. But for slowly, safely returning to the body - to sensation, to pleasure, to the feeling of being fully here.

If this feels familiar, you’re exactly who this space was created for 🤍

We start tomorrow February 19th at 19:30.
Enrolment will stay open until March 18th.
Join the other 20 amazing women already inside!

A little late with this… ❤️

I wanted to write this on Valentine’s Day, but I was in the middle of teaching at a festival, missing you.

It hasn’t always been easy since becoming parents - finding time for us between our baby, our other baby Heal Play Love, our work, our projects, and doing it all without family nearby.

But I love the way you continue to choose us. To prioritize us. To show up, again and again.

You being so committed to growing together, even with everything on your plate, is one of the things that makes me feel safest with you.

Thank you for being the man, the partner, and the family anchor I could ever hope for.

📷 A few random photos I found and love of us and Kian…

I love you, my love ❤️

I’m never going to stop talking about the way a woman changes when she finally feels safe in herself.

Of course I love witnessing the breakthroughs. The tears. The realizations. The moments where something clicks.

What touches me even more are the messages I receive weeks later.

“I feel so different with my partner.”
“My children feel calmer around me.”
“I didn’t realize how tense I was until I actually softened.”

That’s when I know it’s real.

Because something shifts internally… and life begins to rearrange around that shift.

When you truly live from your feminine heart, your body softens.
From that softness, your relationships deepen.
Creativity starts moving again in ways you can’t force.

Magnetism isn’t something you try to create.
It happens naturally when you’re no longer performing.

Many women come to me thinking they need to be fixed.

But what they’re actually longing for is to be met.
To be witnessed.
To rest in a space where they don’t have to hold everything together.

Sisterhood changes something profound in the nervous system.
Consistent support reshapes how you show up everywhere else.

The world teaches us to cope alone.
Independence gets praised.
Strength gets rewarded.
Meanwhile, the body ACHES for connection.

Nothing is wrong with you.
Disconnection just isn’t your natural state.

Temple of the Feminine Heart was created for this remembering.

Not to make you better.
To bring you back to who you were before you learned to armor up.

I hear this all the time when women feel drawn to the Temple:

“I’d love to join… but I don’t have the time.” “My life is already so full.” “I can’t commit to something else.”

And honestly - these are often the exact women this space is for.

Not because you should add another thing to your to-do list. But because being busy without spaces to slow down is what creates more busyness.

More tension. More mental load. More disconnection from your body and your heart.

The Temple isn’t designed for women with endless free time. It’s designed for women who are holding a lot - work, relationships, family, responsibility - and who are tired of always being “on.”

Inside the Temple, you don’t have to think. You don’t have to plan. You don’t have to self-regulate everything alone.

There are three touch points a month. 90 minutes at a time. After work hours.

Spaces where you get to slow down, be held, receive, and come back into your body - instead of collapsing into scrolling or numbing at the end of the day.

That’s about 4.5 hours a month. Less time than most of us spend on Netflix or social media. And the return is more clarity, more groundedness, more presence in your actual life.

It’s the same reason I speak so much about daily rituals. 15 minutes a day doesn’t take time - it gives time back. Because when your nervous system is supported, everything becomes more efficient.

This work isn’t about doing more. It’s about stopping the constant self-abandonment that keeps you exhausted.

If your life feels full, fast, or overwhelming - this isn’t a reason to stay away.
It might be the invitation.

🌹 Temple of the Feminine Heart starts February 19 (recordings will be available).

When she came to me, she was convinced the relationship was the problem. She felt unseen, unmet, worn down from trying, and she believed the most self-respecting thing she could do was walk away. She didn’t come asking how to stay - she came wanting the strength to leave.

But as we slowed things down, something else revealed itself.

It wasn’t that she didn’t know what she wanted. It was that, in her body, it didn’t feel safe to want it out loud. Most of the time, she didn’t speak at all. And when she did, her words came wrapped in tension - fear disguised as communication. This wasn’t dysfunction. It was protection. A nervous system that had learned, long ago, that taking up space could cost her love.

So our work wasn’t about fixing the relationship or teaching better communication. It was about restoring safety - in her body, in her voice, in herself. About helping her feel grounded enough to stay present with her truth instead of bracing against it.

As that safety returned, something shifted. She no longer had to choose between herself and the relationship. From that steadier place, she chose to stay - not from fear, not from habit, but from clarity. And the relationship met her there.

Today, they are married and have a little baby girl!

I share this because so often what looks like a relationship problem is actually a safety problem. And when a woman feels safe enough to be fully herself, life can change in ways we never could have planned.

The is the kind of work held inside Temple of the Feminine Heart.

Temple of the Feminine Heart is a 9-month intimate online journey for women ready to stop managing themselves and begin listening to their bodies. The work centers nervous system safety and embodied feminine wisdom, creating the conditions for honest expression, clear boundaries, and deeper intimacy - within oneself and with others.
 We begin February 19.

This is the work I hold women in - not fixing, not forcing, but remembering what it feels like to come home to yourself.

Over the years, I’ve learned something about myself.

Whenever I truly commit to a space of growth - not just dipping in, but letting myself be held there - something shifts.

Every single time, another layer opens.�A truth I couldn’t access before.�A softening I didn’t even know I was ready for.

Growth doesn’t have an end point.
There’s no final version of us.
We don’t arrive.
We deepen.

That’s why spaces like this matter so much to me.

When you’re held in learning, reflection, embodiment, and community over time, you stop skimming the surface of your life.
You start living from somewhere deeper.

I know how easy it is to stagnate when nothing is gently stretching you.
When days repeat.
When inspiration fades.
When your inner world feels a little flat or distant.

And I also know what happens on the other side of that.

When you stay devoted to your own unfolding.�When you keep saying yes to growth - not because something is wrong, but because there’s more to feel, more to remember, more to embody.

This is why I care so deeply about long-term containers.

Spaces that walk with you while real life keeps moving.�While you’re in relationship.�In work.�In motherhood.�In change.

Temple of the Feminine Heart was created from this devotion.

A space where growth isn’t rushed or forced, but supported and cyclical.
Where you don’t have to pause your life to go deeper.�You simply learn how to live from a deeper place.

My love, if you sense that there’s another layer waiting, this may be your invitation to let yourself be held.

If stating your standards scares him, he was never meant for you.

So many women don’t state what they really want in a relationship - or they wait far too long to say it. Not because they don’t know… but because they’re afraid.

Afraid of being “too much.” Afraid of pushing him away. Afraid that if they name their standards, he’ll leave.

So they wait. They soften it. They adapt. They hope that with time clarity will just appear.

What I see over and over again is this: the longer you don’t say what matters to you, the more you abandon yourself - and anxiety is often the body’s response to that misalignment.

I saw this clearly with a client last week.

She was dating someone and felt constantly unsettled - unsure if he wanted commitment or wanted to keep things open. The anxiety was growing. The stories were getting louder. And part of her thought, “If I say what I want now, I might lose him.”

Instead of waiting, we worked on something different: how to communicate her standards early - calmly, clearly, without blame, without need.

Not: “You need to do this for me.”
But: “This is what matters to me. This is how I do relationships. If that aligns, beautiful. If not that’s ok, and I’ll step away.”

Here’s the truth: A healthy, emotionally available man is attracted to a woman who knows her worth and names her standards. He wants to rise to that.

And if a man doesn’t want commitment, clarity, or depth - you haven’t “scared him away.” You’ve saved yourself months (or years) of confusion and self-abandonment.

Queen energy isn’t about demanding. It’s about self-respect.

It says: “This is who I am.” “This is what I want.” “And I trust myself enough to walk away if it’s not met.”

That’s not risky. That’s powerful.

And it’s how anxiety dissolves - because you stop waiting to be chosen, and start choosing yourself.

PS: My client was nervous going into the conversation but it ended up going well. He didn’t shut down. He didn’t disappear. He confirmed that he wanted the same things she wanted.

And if he hadn’t? She would’ve saved herself months of question marks.

Either way, she would have won, because she didn’t abandon herself.

Everyone’s talking about 2016, and honestly when I think about it, it was such a pivotal year for me. 
When I look back at that year, it wasn’t shiny or clean or “figured out.” But it was a year I felt SO alive.

I was 25-26. Living in New York. Halfway through my master’s in health & wellness coaching and about to start my yoga teacher training. I was still very much in my relationship patterns, still carrying that deep sense of loneliness and emptiness I didn’t yet have language for.

And yet - something cracked open.

For the first time, I wasn’t trying so hard to be in a box.
I dated more freely. I said yes to life. A lot.

I discovered the underground electronic music scene and something in me woke up on those dance floors. I felt my body in a way I hadn’t before. At the same time, I was deepening spiritually - which sounds contradictory, but for me it wasn’t. Those worlds met in my body.

I traveled. Tulum. The Grand Canyon. London. Portugal. Late nights. Early mornings. So much fun.
I fell in love. I got my heart broken. And instead of closing, I learned.

That was also the year I knew I was done with New York. After five years of a love–hate relationship, something in me was ready to leave. Ready to go back to Lebanon. Ready to be closer to my grandmother. Ready for another chapter.

It was the year I started teaching yoga. The very beginning of the path that eventually became the work I do today - even though I had no idea where it would lead.

I wasn’t regulated. I wasn’t healed. I definitely wasn’t balanced.

But I was alive.

And sometimes, even now - with more grounding, more harmony, more stability - I miss that version of me. The one who felt everything so intensely. The one who didn’t have all the tools, but had a deep instinct to move, explore, say YES to life.

I don’t want to go back to 2016.

But I do want to remember her.
That aliveness. That openness. That willingness to let life move through me.

Maybe that’s what all this nostalgia is really about - not wanting the past back, but remembering a part of ourselves that felt free.
And finding ways to live that again, now - in a body that’s more grounded, more present, more home.

There was a theme that kept surfacing at my Rebirth Retreat last week, without anyone planning it - motherhood.

Some of the women there had very young children. One was pregnant, preparing to become a mother. And again and again, we landed in the same place: how deeply we love our children, and how quietly it can happen that we lose ourselves inside that love.

Motherhood asks for so much of us, especially in the early years. Our bodies, our time, our sleep, our nervous systems. We are needed constantly. And at the same time, there’s this unspoken expectation to be grateful, fulfilled, happy - as if love should cancel out exhaustion, loneliness, or grief for the parts of ourselves that feel far away.

What we don’t talk about enough is how isolating it can feel. How little space there is to truly rest. How rarely mothers are held in the way they hold everyone else.

What I witnessed were women who needed care too. Women who needed softness, grounding, and permission to receive - without having to justify it.

Motherhood doesn’t mean you stop being a woman. But so often, she’s the first one to disappear.

I know this place myself. The longing for a space where I can soften, exhale, and be met - not as a mother, not as a facilitator, but simply as me.

And even if you’re not a mother, or don’t plan to be, this still matters. Because as women, we’re conditioned to give before we receive. To hold before we’re held. To keep going instead of letting ourselves land.

And sometimes the bravest thing a woman can do is allow herself to be held.

11/01/2026

Community nourishes us in a way nothing else can replace.�
It reminds us of a truth we often forget: we don’t have to do everything alone.�
As life moves on and our worlds become busier, community is often the first thing we lose.
We live more separately, we handle more by ourselves and we learn to cope, independently and often in isolation.�
And I really believe this separation costs us more than we realize. It disconnects us from being seen. From being held. From being met in the places where life feels tender or uncertain.

There is something deeply regulating about moving in a shared rhythm. About knowing someone is there to witness you in your joy, your mess, and your becoming.

This is why community isn’t optional for me. It’s foundational.

Inside Temple of the Feminine Heart, community isn’t about conversation for the sake of it. It’s about intention, consistency, walking together over time.

When women gather with intention, something ancient awakens. We feel safer in our bodies, we soften. And we remember that we were never meant to carry life on our own.

If you’ve been missing that sense of belonging, that feeling of being surrounded, supported, and truly seen, this Temple was created with you in mind.

Since becoming a mother, I’ve had to get very honest about where I put my time and energy.

For the past couple of years, my work has lived mostly in retreats and 1:1 mentorships. As a mom running two businesses - and choosing not to have my little one in full-time daycare - working with fewer women, fewer events, and going deeper has become the most sustainable and aligned way for me to work.

At the same time, I’m deeply grateful for the years before that: leading yoga classes, workshops, and facilitating at Heal Play Love events (which I still do). Those spaces are where trust was built, where community formed, and where many of you first met my work.

Lately, I felt a clear pull to create something that sits in between.

Something deeper than a workshop or session - yet more accessible in time and investment than a retreat or 1-1 work.

So I’m really excited to share that I’m hosting a one-day retreat in Zurich on January 24th: Journey into the Feminine Heart.

A full day of feminine embodiment, breath, voice, dance, and sisterhood - held in the beautiful studio in the city.

If you’ve never experienced my work and want a taste of it, or if you’ve been part of this community and feel the call to return to the circle, I’d love to welcome you.
