Anger: what’s your relationship with it?

I often have clients tell me: “I’m not an angry person.”
I get the fear of expressing toxic anger (anger that hurts others and blows up bridges.) The problem is that suppressed anger does just that: explodes in an unmanageable way that creates pain OR you turn your anger towards yourself (negative self-talk, drinking/eating addiction/drugs/even physical illness).

Think of anger as an essential color in your rainbow that needs to be expressed. What would your world be like if red didn’t exist? It’s a current to your life force. When you’ve got it online, you’ve got more power, self-respect and you own your boundaries. 💥

What about frustration or irritation? This last month I found myself eating handfuls of cashews out of frustration. I thought, “What’s really going on?” I realized I was trying to distract myself not just from my frustration but also from what was no longer working from me. 🔥

Irritation, frustration: those are signals that something needs to shift. 💫
It’s might be a boundary that’s being crossed (either you with yourself or someone else with you).
It might be you need alone time to clear out and recalibrate and return to your magic (with my system, I need space to myself or I get grumpy as F$CK).

Or it can be an indication that something’s off and needs a tweak (or a cut). ✂️
Consider all of these emotions as a fire that’s white hot in the center: their purpose are to create clarity. If you attune to these sensations as truths of what keeps you on YOUR path, then anger, frustration, and irritation aren’t feelings to be fixed or hidden - they’re to be listened to.
There’s more I can say about what to do if you’ve got chronic anger/frustration and how to healthily express anger. But this is my love note to you right now. ❤️

I’m curious what your relationship is with anger?

Do you know how powerful the theta state is?

We usually access theta in dreamtime — but there’s a way to cultivate it while you’re awake. 💤✨
Meditation, energy work, and deep rest practices can drop you in… and you can also learn how to self-hypnotize so you stay conscious while in this deeper brainwave state.

💫 Benefits of the Theta State

🌿 Calms + resets your nervous system: cortisol drops, your parasympathetic leads — the frequency of safety.
🌀 Connects you to your subconscious: the part of you that actually runs the show — habits, identity, intuition — becomes accessible and re-programmable.
⚡ Potent rewiring space: introduce new patterns + beliefs directly into your operating system instead of forcing change through willpower.
💗 Transforms pain without re-traumatizing: theta opens the healing channel through softness, not struggle.
🌙 Heightens intuition + inner vision
🎨 Deepens creativity + imagination
🌸 Rebalances hormones + supports cellular repair: studies link theta with growth hormone release + immune regulation — your body’s natural regeneration mode.
💞 Creates coherence between heart + brain
🔮 Invites spiritual integration: you remember — I am the dreamer, not the dream.

🌺 In my online course (Nov 3 – 17) Spellcast in Theta

You’ll learn:

✨ How to access the theta state consciously
☀️ A fun, powerful morning practice to help you connect to your true desires + manifest from your creative core
🌙 A pre-sleep (or in-sleep) practice to calm your nervous system, rewire limiting beliefs + imprint new realities

The best part? It’s fun — a playful way to reclaim your inner scriptwriter and design your life from delight. 🎬💫

I’ve got one spot left — we meet for 3 live calls, and you keep all the recordings + materials forever.
DM me for the special magical offer.

Have a beautiful day✨💖

I used to have emergency sessions with my therapist the day before my period. Never failed. When I finally saw the pattern, I started tracking it.

Today was one of those days. Everything was ending inside; everything was wrong. I was wrong. You’re wrong. I need to leave Bali. I don’t even know where to go. I just wanted everything to stop, implode, explode—just PLODE, damnit.

Maybe it’s Pluto. (I learned about Pluto from ChatGPT and late-night IG searches.) Pluto’s doing something fierce, so I can blame it on that.
Or maybe it’s because the world is burning—inside and out—and we’re all hurting each other and not even aware. We are in a crazy massive quantum shift.

Or maybe it’s my clients. I spend my days listening to people in their excruciating pain; and they hope (& I wish!) my magic wand can make these lifetimes of theirs just… go away.

Is it my hormones? That dreaded word midlife—which I don’t even feel I’ve earned because I never got married, had kids, lived in suburbia, or did anything “normal.”
I’m in this weird jungle full of construction, creating the most strange, exquisite, dreamlike world.
Am I in midlife? Did it come to that?
Maybe I’m still grieving my ex (I still miss you every day, you stupid man). Or maybe it’s all those deaths, all the loss these past years
I can blame it on…

And then of course—does the “why” even matter?
I’m a highly sensitive, moody motherf*cker who lives the high waves, the low waves, and the textures in between.
What I do with this—that’s what matters. How I meet this, how I dance with these mad waves 🌊

“Don’t buy into your thoughts,” I tell myself.
“Hang tight, Chickee,” I also say.

There’s a storm inside, a storm outside.
And if I just start breathing again, if I pull myself back a little… it’s a little okay.
Give it some time. It’s all okay.

Sending you love under massive starry skies.
I’m hiding out in a quiet place, just listening. 🌙

It’s not my job to save everyone—and no one can save me.
If you do work like mine, you know how sticky the savior matrix can be. It runs under the field.

When a client puts me on a pedestal or expects me to wipe their pain and problems away magically, here’s my truth + boundary:
I can walk with you. I can’t walk for you. You need to learn to meet yourself (and I can show you how).

Miracles happen in my sessions—pain can drop, stories can rewire. You can live your best life. And know this: your power lands when you choose, practice, and keep showing up for yourself. When you choose to own yourself. When you don’t fall into the tempting victim archetype (we all have one) or child wounds. No one is your magic fix- YOU are the magic.⚡️

There are times when I have to watch when my own insecurities step in, which can blur my boundaries (it’s so tempting!) You want me to fix it or save you & you’re paying me $ and my own lil’ fear or old stories of low self-worth could step in…or maybe the overcaring part of me. This just makes it messy- I get sick and take on pain that’s not mine (& get grumpy) and you never move forward.

In all my choices & actions, I need to make sure that Love drives my energy, not fear or old insecurities.

How about the “Cinderella Spell”? The story we’ve given that someone else - a partner, friend, child will save us. Time to realize that we’re here to save ourselves. That’s when our true power begins - that we are the creator and the destroyer and the greatest Dreamer. We’re sovereign and there isn’t someone we need to wait for to save us. You’ve got this. I’ve got this. We’ve got this. 🔥

Do you feel this? What resonates? Tell me below. ✨

We’re taught to meet trauma by becoming the witness—the grown one who can see it without re-living it. Necessary. Otherwise we mistake re-enactment for healing and fragment more.

But pleasure is different. Pleasure doesn’t want an observer; it wants you in it. The body only knows now. We’re layered beings (physical, emotional, mental, astral, karmic), and unprocessed pain quietly writes code in the background. Most of us eventually find our way feel anger and sadness—we can identify them, move them, even express them. Pleasure is the tricky one. I find most of us are more awkward and even terrified when it comes to that. How good are you at feeling, allowing and staying with pleasure? Do you even notice it? Do you move on quickly? Or do you let yourself absorb it? You might even have a negative core belief where you feel like you don’t deserve it. We’re so tricky in our subconscious and unconscious.

This is one of my top tips in how to ground/be present/be more in your body. Pleasure IS the game changer. How can you orient towards pleasure? Some of us, without realizing it, still orient towards the pain, what’s not working, or obsessive improvement. I’m not talking suppressing uncomfortable emotions or avoiding painful situations - but learning how to orient towards the tones and notes that feel good, are interesting, smell and taste good. As Ruiz says, “The victim represses, the warrior refrains.” There’s an elegance in our sensing our human complexity.
Let that be your experiment this week: Can you notice pleasure (or interesting/curious things) internally or externally? And when you do, what do you with it? Can you let it stay a little longer?

Quantum shifts are ON. No plant medicine needed. 🌙🧠
You are the medicine.

I’m opening Vision Quest (Yoga Nidra++) — a live training to access & work in the theta state with clarity (and joy). We start on the New Moon, Sept 23–Oct 5.

In this container you’ll learn to:
✅ Drop into theta consciously (and know you’re there)
✅ Use embodied imagination to heal + create new patterns
✅ Practice astral hygiene + safe “travel” while staying in your body
✅ Hold space without scripts (trauma-informed, intuitive, real)
✅ Apply this in privates, groups, online & in-person (great for therapists, coaches, facilitators, yoga teachers)

I’m also running Spellcast in Theta (Self-Hypnotherapy) in November — how to recode the subconscious so your nervous system and life actually change.

Early-bird & bundle savings are live.
DM for more info🚀

Save this if you’re feeling the call. Share with a friend who’s ready to journey within. 🌀✨

Do you try to tolerate what’s actually intolerable? 🚫

If you’re an empath ✨, you probably know what I’m talking about—taking on pain, emotions, or thoughts that aren’t yours 🌀. Overriding your system’s truth because you were taught to “be nice” 🙃, “be polite” 🤝, or “give them a chance” 🌸.

Maybe as a kid, you had that creepy uncle 😬 or the “off” kid at school 🎒, but your mom told you to hang out with them. You learned to ignore your body’s instant feedback—that internal no ❌—and instead collude with someone else’s version of reality.

And now? You wonder why you feel drained 😮‍💨. Why you take on people’s energy ⚡. Why you override what’s true for you 💔.

Here’s the truth: saying no isn’t mean, it’s maintenance 🛡️. You don’t need to explain or justify it. You get to protect your field without guilt 💎.

✨ Ready to rewire the part of you that tries to tolerate the intolerable?

Yesterday I climbed a really high peak.⛰️
It was tougher than I expected—real mountaineering skills required. I’m in great shape and made it up there, but rehabbing two torn hamstrings made it…less fun.

Despite the summit being known for epic views, it was all fog and mist. I could barely see beyond the next step.

And still—despite the desire to turn around more than once—I’m glad I did it.

I’m in a big shift right now. Maybe you are too.
Just like this hike, there’s a lot of unknowns. All I had was my inner confidence and the one step lit up in front of me.

I’ve always been good at pushing myself. Not so good at honoring my limits.
Right now, my hammies want me to chill.
And my inner Artist? She’s ready to smother the Athlete—because she has some serious creations to birth. 🔥
She needs space. Chill time. Blank canvasses.

Honestly, I feel like I’ve already lived a thousand lifetimes—and the next one’s brewing.

I bet you’re being asked to surrender too—to the brilliant, unexpected you that’s trying to erupt.

So what’s stopping you?

Let’s do this together.
Consciousness has some big evolutions for us to embody.

Sending you love from a secret mountain town 💙 PS Happy Mercury Retrograde and Lion’s Gate & almost Full Moon. She’s full of so many cosmic plot twists & divine timings. But we’re going to a good place 😘
