WHY MY APPROACH IS DIFFERENT
I assign soulwork/homework to every client that is intuitively channeled during session AND believe in the healing power of a therapeutic relationship that flows two ways. I have cried with clients, I hug my clients, and make sure they feel deeply seen and loved.

Most of our wounds happen in relationships, and MUST be healed in relationships that finally feel safe enough for you to be authentically free.

Why managing your inner world is exhausting and limits your fulfillment. Almost every reason people overfuntion, expend a lot of energy managing their inner world and can at times be reactive is because of PROTECTION. On the outside it appears as if this person has their s**t together, or they are perceived as overly controlling.
Behind the scenes though, this is someone who is exhausted by having to control as many variables as possible because that was once what was required to feel safe. So it’s not that they’re a control freak, it’s that they’re AVOIDING UNCERTAINTY.
Historically uncertainty = fear/volatility/survival instincts. Much of what I do with clients during the early stages of working together is unlearning and rewiring their brain and nervous system to tolerate uncertainty. Over time, uncertainty starts looking like curiosity about being fully alive.

✨Intuitive Readings✨ are back! My intuition has shifted over the years. Before my divorce I had strong psychic abilities to relay messages from deceased love ones (including belove animals), and most of those sessions brought comfort and closure to people.
During my divorce my intuition all but disappeared due to a hijacked nervous system and too high cortisol levels. In survival mode, we disconnect fro softness and receptivity.
Now, two years post-divorce my ✨intuition✨ has revealed itself as channeling people’s imprints in terms of soul path, purpose, decision making, and seeing what’s possible. It’s super juicy!
Every reading, clients leave feeling a renewed sense of direction, clarity, confirmation one way or another, and are tapped into the high level manifestations that their soul came to take inspired action on this lifetime.
Intuitive Readings are 60 minutes via Zoom. Book here or link in bio.

Are you a HUMAN DOING or a HUMAN BEING? By midlife, many of is are so deeply entrenched in the doing of managing and maintaining that we have forgotten to even recognize any value in the being.
You recognize you’re sleepwalking through midlife because that knowing voice inside of you is talking (or screaming) at you daily! You know what you need to do, and you’re not doing it.
It’s never too late and you have not missed the boat! Midlife asks us “What do you really want? Are you willing to wake up to the TRUTH OF YOUR BEING and claim it?”

See the tests! And pass them! There are two kinds of people, imo.
CATALYSTS who are here serving because they are NOT consciously growing, improving or able to take accountability. Catalysts acan be triggering and often present tests for for the other type of people who are what I call EVOLVERS. These are people deeply committed to growth, change, responsibility, and raising their consciousness.

Without the CATALYSTS the EVOLVERS wouldn’t get the opportunities to evolve. The next time you’re triggered by, upset, disappointed, angry, stuck in a quagmire with someone, can you recognize it as a test?
The practice for EVOLVERS is to see the CATALYST presenting the test. To receive it as a gift, as an opportunity to deepen and expand their light. To not go low vibe or take the bait. What’s rad about this clear seeing practice is that TESTS turn into OPPORTUNITIES!

2 QUESTIONS THAT CHANGE EVERYTHING
Asking yourself these two questions ALL DAY LONG is an absolute game changer in terms of practicing energetic alignment and mindset which are ALL WE HAVE CONTROL OVER. The more frequently you practice re-directing what’s out of alignment back into elevated alignment, the FASTER YOU HEAL AND MANIFEST what’s meant for you.

How To Dissolve Lack, Fear, and Scarcity. Practically everything is beyond our control, especially other people’s behavior. It serves us not when we stay in judgment, fixing, micromanaging. The only things we have any control over are our energy and mindset. Instead of constantly tracking for lack from your outmoded place of hyper-vigilance, can you instead practice being in the wholeness of your light? Can you practice trusting that you absolutely cannot miss what’s meant for you?

Words have ✨vibrational frequency✨ and are energetic anchor points in manifestation. Every year I choose a POWER WORD or SEED WORD to encapsulate my vision for the year ahead.


⌲ Choose Your SEED WORD ⌲
⌲ Outline Your Core Areas with the Vision and Inspired Consistent Action You Intend To Take in…
1) spirituality
2) mental/emotional/mindset
3) physical/tangible/3D

⌲ Check your BELIEFS related to each goal/intention. Is any part of you carrying old patterns or outmoded beliefs that have been blocking you until now? If so, those need to SHIFT FIRST before attempting new goals and manifesting.

⌲ Keep your SEED WORD sprinkled around your home, reminders on your phone, talk about it with friends, journal about it, fantasize about it, take consistent action on it. Just like a gardener has to be consistently devotional and patient trusting the process while tending to the garden long before they reap the rewards, your commitment is the same. I guarantee you, you will see results if you TAKE CARE OF YOUR SEED WORD THE WAY YOU WOULD A LOVER. ♥️

The power of a woman’s regulated nervous system that is also heart ♥️ connected to her self-worth. Most women are natural caregivers. A woman that says “YES” to her midlife reclamation is a powerful woman. The work is never just for her.

So many women I work with report back with 💥surprise and delight💥 about the impact their more connected, less rigid energy has on everyone closest to them.

Second guessing yourself? Feeling unsure? Here’s a snippet of my story about second guessing and not trusting myself, and what I learned.
May you know that you’re always right where you need to be in your process. Sometimes, to be able to proceed with complete knowingness requires a couple of attempts. And sometimes confirmation that you’re on the right aligned path looks hella messy. I thought many times during my second divorce filing, “this is soooo fu***ng hard and excruciatingly painful, but I have no doubt that this is right now.” I needed ALL OF ME to more deeply understand and trust myself and my decision.
While I still experience grief some days and have to practice forgiveness, I (and my kids) finally have peace. And peace is priceless.

The River and the River Banks. Many women in Midlife find themselves operating and over functioning as the banks of the river, holding EVERYTHING so that everyone around them can flow. Holding, managing, maintaining, directing, carrying is eventually exhausting for women as we do not thrive in such RIGID states.
By the time I meet women in my practice they are often close to the end of their capacity to continue being the river banks. Together, we embark on a journey of unlearning, clearing out, and claiming or re-claiming the essence of their unique flow.
Does this sound familiar? Have you become too much of the river banks and not enough of the river?
