I thought being an empath was a superpower.
It was actually my nervous system staying on high alert.

Reading the room. Predicting moods. Feeling everyone.
That wasn’t intuition — it was protection.

And it left me anxious, hypervigilant, exhausted, and disconnected from myself.

If this resonates, try the practice in the video.

That reaction wasn’t random.
And it wasn’t because you lack self-control.

When you’re triggered, your nervous system isn’t responding to the present —it’s responding from the past.

A younger part of you learned how to survive pain by reacting fast.

Anger. Shutdown. Anxiety. Self-sabotage.

Those were protection strategies once.That’s why later, when you’re regulated, you think:
“Why did I say that?”
“Why did I do that?”
“Why didn’t I do that?!”

It can feel like a memory gap because your body briefly went back in time and used an old survival pattern.

Healing isn’t about forcing yourself to react differently.And it’s not about more insight or willpower.

It’s about repairing the nervous system and helping the younger parts of you learn that now is different.

This is the work that ends the cycle.If you’re ready to stop fighting your reactions and start healing what’s underneath them,DM REGULATE or apply to work with me 1:1.

When children aren’t believed, corrected, or dismissed over and over,
their nervous system adapts.

Not by becoming confident,
but by becoming careful.

Careful with feelings.
Careful with memories.
Careful with the truth.

So if you question yourself now,
if you look to others for confirmation,
if you minimize what you feel. . .

𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒈 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒚𝒐𝒖.

These patterns came from a body that learned
it wasn’t safe to be fully honest and still stay connected.

Rebuilding self-trust doesn’t look like:
• forcing confidence
• positive affirmations that don’t land
• “just believing in yourself”

Rebuilding self-trust often looks like:
• pausing instead of overriding your body
• letting a feeling exist without correcting it or pushing it down
• noticing when you go to explain, justify, or doubt yourself
• learning and honoring your boundaries
• letting your inner experience count, even when no one else agrees

This isn’t mindset work.
It’s nervous system work.

And it happens slowly, in real time,
inside your relationships and your body.

When you’re in survival mode, your nervous system lies about time.

Everything feels urgent.
You feel behind.
Like if you don’t do it now, something bad will happen.

But survival mode collapses time. It creates false emergencies.

Today I’m sitting in my car, recovering from being sick.
I’m tired. I have a lot to do.
I’m waiting for a store to open.

The old pattern would’ve had me racing around for those extra 15 minutes—
checking things off, pushing through, ignoring my body.

Instead, I stayed.
I listened to music.
I looked around.
I let my system settle.

And when I did… the truth came back online.

I have time.
My body is healing.
And most things that feel urgent… aren’t.

Regulation doesn’t make you passive.
It gives you accuracy.

🤍

If your days constantly feel rushed and heavy, it might not be a time problem—it might be a nervous system one.

I have several open appointments the next few weeks that I would love to get filled. With the sickness going around and new year chaos, a good amount of my regulars are out, which makes it a perfect time for you to get in.

𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐬𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐭.

Chronic shame.
Feeling unseen, unheard, misunderstood.
People-pleasing.
Difficulty emotionally regulating.

These aren’t random.
They’re learned responses to being consistently unmet.

Misattunement is not being met where you are.

For many, it begins in childhood —
being laughed at when vulnerable,
worry met with “you’re fine,”
fear minimized or rationalized,
excitement met with shutdown,
emotions treated as inconvenient or “too much.”

Your system adapted by tracking others,
minimizing yourself,
and staying on guard.

Repair begins with attunement —
the kind you give yourself now.

Small check-ins throughout the day:
What am I feeling?
What do I need?

And then responding.

This includes the body too —
not holding it in when you need the restroom,
allowing yawns, burps, movement, rest.

These moments teach your system:
I am listening.

And that’s how misattunement begins to heal.

💛If this landed, pause today and ask yourself:
What do I need right now?
That’s attunement.
Follow for more.

𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 “𝐬𝐧𝐚𝐩.”
𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐰.

Most people think anger comes out of nowhere…
But it’s really just a cup filling drip by drip.

Every ignored need.
Every boundary you let slide.
Every “I’m fine” when you’re absolutely not.
Every time you regulate only when you’re already at a 10.

Then one day—something tiny happens…
and the whole cup spills.
Messy. Loud. Shame-filled.
A whole nervous system s**t show.

But here’s the part no one taught us:

Regulation isn’t what you do when you’re exploding.
Regulation is what keeps the cup from getting that full in the first place.

Those little daily practices?
A pet cuddle
Dance it out to a favorite song
Shaking out your shoulders.
Breathwork
A short walk
Orient to something that is pleasing to you

They’re not “small.”
They’re the exact things that keep you from drowning in your own buildup. 🌊

If you’re tired of living one spill away from losing it…
this is your sign to start tending to your cup before it’s overflowing.

Five years sober. 🖤

Not because I was strong.
Not because I had willpower.
I drank because I didn’t know another way to feel even a moment of relief.

All the stress, the anxiety, the shutdowns, the numbness…
those were trauma patterns living in my nervous system, patterns I didn’t even know how to name.

Alcohol was how I coped.
It just quieted the storm inside my body long enough to survive.

Sobriety didn’t magically make the pain disappear.
It gave me space to finally meet the parts of me I had been running from.

Healing now looks different:
✨ Feeling instead of numbing
✨ Regulating instead of reacting
✨ Believing I deserve a life that doesn’t require escape

If you’re reading this and thinking… “that’s me!”
I see you.
You’re not broken.
Your nervous system is just trying to survive — and it deserves care, not shame.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 #𝟏 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬:

𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.
Not perfection.
Not doing everything “right.”
Attunement — the ability to be aware of and present with another and their needs without jumping into it with them.

Because underneath everything we struggle with in relationships —
the shutdowns, the disconnect, the “why don’t they get me?” moments —
is one core human need:
to be seen, heard, and understood.

And here’s the beautiful part:
It’s never too late to learn this.
Even if your parents never modeled it.
Even if you grew up walking on eggshells.
Even if closeness feels overwhelming at times.

But here’s the truth most people skip…
You can’t attune to someone else if you’re dysregulated inside.

𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 —
the capacity to stay steady, grounded, and connected to yourself
while someone else is experiencing big emotions.
Not jumping in to fix.
Not shutting down because it’s too much.
Not mirroring their panic or pain.
Just staying with them.

That’s what creates safety.
That’s what breaks generational patterns.
That’s what repairs relationships — especially with kids and parents.

And if you’re reading this thinking,
“Ugh… no one ever did this for me,”
you’re not alone — and it’s not your fault.
You’re learning a skill you never received.

💛 This is exactly what I teach inside my 1:1 coaching.
I help women build the emotional regulation and nervous system capacity
to finally stay present with the people they love —
and to feel that same presence reflected back to them.

If you want to learn attunement in a way that feels embodied, gentle, and life-changing…
DM me “𝑨𝑻𝑻𝑼𝑵𝑬” and I’ll send you the details.

Can you believe no one taught us this?

That emotional regulation starts in the body, not the mind.That your overwhelm, shutdown, or irritability are your nervous system asking for support — not signs you’re broken.

We learned how to push through, perform, and please…but not how to soothe, regulate, or come back home to ourselves.

This is the real work of healing —learning the language of your body and creating safety from the inside out.

Pulling away when things feel good? You’re not self-sabotaging — you’re protecting.

Your nervous system remembers what once wasn’t safe.Even love, calm, or connection can feel threatening at first.

The work isn’t to push through it — it’s to gently teach your body that safety and connection can exist together. 💛
