Somatically Us.

Something is being rewritten—inside me, inside you, and in the space that is Us. Learning to live in the dash with intention. To make safety in our bodies stronger than the currents around us.

My partner and I gathered with 9 other couples from across the U.S. in Phoenix for four days, guided through the four seasons of marriage. An experience we deeply needed.

Somewhere between healing lifelong wounds, ending generational trauma, building a trauma-focused practice, and creating a home for our Somatic Experiencing work… the space to love fully got stranded.

The world pulls us toward disconnection. But my determination to choose joy in connection is stronger.

Being seen has been hard—once, it meant danger. Old survival codes can become dysfunction inside attachment. For both of us, differently and the same.

We were shown how to connect inside pain, and how joy can heal. Humor softens the edges. Love isn’t our demise—love finds the sweet spot where tenderness can return.

I’m deeply grateful to witness healing in real time, within ourselves and collectively. Challenging the codes, together.

February can feel like the final stretch of emotional winter
•
•
Not quite the new year anymore,
Not quite spring yet,
Just… in-between.

The days are cold, your motivation might be low,
And maybe you’re wondering why everything still feels so hard.

Let’s normalize this:

✨ It’s okay if your energy hasn’t bounced back.
✨ It’s okay if your nervous system still feels tired.
✨ It’s okay if you’re just moving through the motions right now.

This is a weird season.
But it’s also a sacred one — where your roots are still doing the deep work,
even if it doesn’t look like growth from the outside.

If all you can do right now is take care of your basic needs,
That’s not failure. That’s resilience.

You don’t have to be blooming yet.
You just have to keep going.

The light is coming.
The shift is coming.
You are not behind.
You are becoming.

You are not responsible for making everyone else comfortable.

You’re allowed to take up space.
You’re allowed to say no without explaining yourself.
You’re allowed to have boundaries that disappoint people.

If someone feels uneasy because you’re honest, healing, changing, or protecting your peace. That discomfort is theirs to work through, not yours to carry.

Shrinking yourself to keep the peace only teaches your nervous system that your needs come last. And that’s not selflessness - that’s self-abandonment.

You don’t owe anyone access to you at the cost of your mental health.

Your comfort matters too. 💛

How do you fill your cup?! ☕️
•
•
If you know me, you know that reading is a HUGE passion of mine. During this chilly season, I’ve been finding so much comfort in slowing down and taking the time to read.

There’s something about curling up with a good book that genuinely fills my cup and helps me come back into my body. It feels regulating, grounding, and like a quiet form of self-trust.

Right now, I’m reading Body First Healing by Brittany Piper, and it’s been such a beautiful reminder healing doesn’t always start with insight - it starts with sensation, safety, and listening to what the body needs.

As a clinical therapist continuing to expand my lens into Somatic Experiencing, this work has been deeply affirming and inspiring.

I’m curious - what are you feeling pulled toward lately that helps you get grounded or refill your cup?

A walk?
Stillness?
Baking?
Movement?
Creativity?
Or even rest?

Would love to hear what’s supporting you right now 🙏🏻❤️

We hear a lot about fight, flight, or freeze…

but there’s a fourth trauma response we don’t talk about enough: Fawning.

Fawning is when your nervous system decides the safest thing to do is to please, appease, or over-accommodate — often at the expense of your own needs.

It sounds like:
• “It’s fine, really.”
• “I don’t want to make it a big deal.”
• “As long as everyone else is okay, I’m okay.”

But here’s the truth:
Fawning isn’t peace. It’s self-protection.
It’s the way some of us learned to stay safe in environments where conflict, rejection, or punishment felt dangerous.

Real-life example:
You’re in a conversation with a friend or partner who says something that hurts you…
But instead of speaking up, you nod, laugh, and say, “It’s okay — I know you didn’t mean it.”
Later, you feel resentful, anxious, and disconnected — but you blame yourself for being “too sensitive.”

That’s fawning.

Your nervous system chose appease to avoid discomfort, instead of authenticity that might create conflict.

Fawning isn’t weakness. It’s a survival strategy.
But the more safety you create in your body and relationships,
the less you’ll need to abandon yourself to keep the peace.

The new year often starts with intention…

and then life hits the fast lane.

If you’re feeling disconnected from your goals, this grounding exercise can help you pause, breathe, and reconnect with your “why.”

Sometimes slowing down is the most powerful way forward.

Healing doesn’t expire.
Growth doesn’t have a deadline.

And transformation isn’t reserved for people in their twenties with wide-open calendars and no baggage.

In fact — most people will tell you…
the biggest personal growth happens between 35 and 45.

Why?
Because by then, life has lived you a little.
You’ve collected heartbreak, identity shifts, family dynamics, career changes, and moments that cracked you open.
And somewhere along the way, you realize:
What’s not working can’t come with you.

You’re not too old to:
• Start therapy
• Leave what’s draining you
• Change careers
• Rewrite your story
• Heal old wounds
• Build something entirely new
• Become softer, stronger, and more you than ever before

This isn’t just about your mental health.
It’s about the whole you — your family, your career, your joy, your nervous system, your relationships.

The life you want is still available.
And you’re not behind. You’re just beginning… again, and again, and again — as many times as it takes.

You’re not too old.
You’re right on time.
And the next version of you is waiting on the other side of letting go.

💭 What’s one thing you’re ready to grow through or release this year? I’d love to hold space for it in the comments.

01/07/2026

New Year’s resolutions don’t have to be about shrinking, fixing, or hustling your way to “better.”

They can be about getting closer to the real you.

Too often, we see the same recycled goals:
“Lose weight. Work more. Do better. Be more.”

But what if your resolutions didn’t come from a place of pressure — and instead came from a place of curiosity?

✨ What actually felt good in 2025?
✨ What drained you?
✨ Where did you grow — and what still feels stuck?

Instead of setting goals out of guilt, set intentions from reflection.
• Protect your peace
• Build deeper relationships
• Learn to rest without guilt
• Regulate your nervous system
• Speak to yourself with more kindness
• Create space for joy — not just survival

You’re not a problem to be solved in January.
You’re a person who gets to keep growing — gently, intentionally, and with your whole self in mind.

Your resolutions don’t have to impress anyone.
They just have to support who you’re becoming.

It’s Monday… Take it easy on yourself.

January 1st, 2026

This morning, after a grocery run and the second Starbucks of the year (some habits carry over), I said to my partner,
“By 2026, I thought we’d be driving Jetson-like cars.”
Then I waved my hand in the air to change the music on my screen and added,
“I guess I never imagined I could do this.”

I never imagined this life — the home, the partner, the work, the healing.
But more than anything, I never imagined having direction.

2025 taught me that.

Through darkness, through deep personal battles, through recovery and pause, I found a way forward — not by forcing it, but by learning how to stay connected to my light, even when everything else felt unclear.

This year reshaped me.

I closed out a two-year Somatic Experiencing training, worked with a gifted practitioner, navigated ongoing trauma, and began watching my children step into their own healing work.
It’s been humbling. Transformational. And deeply human.

There was a forced pause — medical recovery that demanded I trust my body, something I used to be afraid to do. I returned to yoga and began re-embodying what was once frozen. I re-entered the trauma learning space with new capacity, learning how to process without narrative — letting the body lead.

And now… 2026.
A year of growth. A year of building.

I’m opening a new business and wellness space with a colleague and fellow SE Practitioner: Verity Health and Wellness — rooted in truth, grounded in community, and inspired by the kind of healing that changes lives.

This is a new year.
These are new reflections.
And the direction continues — toward clarity.
