Today I’m sitting in deep gratitude for the work that I do—for the privilege of walking with people at some of the most difficult moments of their lives, and for the opportunity to carry forward the wisdom each person shares with me about what truly matters… how to live, how to love deeply, and sometimes, how to die.

Every day of my life is shaped by the profound conversations I have with people about what matters most. Over the course of my career in medicine, I have had the privilege of talking to thousands of people about their lives, their health, their deep regrets, their love, and what matters most to them—especially when they are facing their own mortality.

I don’t know what my life would look like, or who I would be, without these conversations. Each one has shaped the choices I make about what to prioritize, the way I care for my own body, and the way I choose to show up in the world. They have shaped the physician and healer and woman that I am today.

My medicine—my offering—is rooted in the wisdom of my teachers and mentors, the ones who have gone before me, and in the sacred trust of the patients who have allowed me to walk alongside them.
I carry both with deep reverence.

I feel profoundly grateful for the journey I’ve been given the opportunity to walk in this life…
and it is this lineage of wisdom that I carry forward - gathered over thousands of hours and conversations - to help others live what matters most and journey toward better health.

If you’re a professional healer, a caretaker, the "strong friend," or an empathic human, your nervous system needs more than just a yoga class. 🛑 It needs a release. This week, we’re talking about nervous system regulation and the practice of "swamping."
Understand the difference between being "upregulated" (anxious) and "hypo-aroused" (shut down).

Learn how to move stagnant rage and grief out of your body so you can stay centered.
I discuss why "busyness" is a cultural disease and how to start your own cure.

Today is the new moon in Aries, a time that carries the energy of bold new beginnings.
In many ways, I feel like I am beginning again—becoming the next version of myself and bringing into existence the next version of my work.

What I find most beautiful to witness in my work is the courage with which women journey and grow when faced with life and health challenges.

I know this journey is often incredibly painful and grief-filled.
There is loss, uncertainty, and moments when the ground beneath us feels unsteady.

And yet, through the journey, something remarkable happens.
In some way, we are birthed again.
We begin again.

Illness is often an initiation—
a time filled with deep pain, grief, and uncertainty,
a time when our foundation becomes unstable.

And it is also a time of profound transformation and growth.
A time capable of breaking us apart
and putting us back together
into a more honest, more grounded, more alive version of ourselves.

This is the work I have devoted my life to—walking alongside women through illness, uncertainty, and transformation, helping them find their footing and their meaning again.
If you are ready for support on your own journey, I’m here.

Self-care isn’t just a reward for surviving a hard week—it’s the intentional act of building a life that actually meets your needs. 🌿 As healers and space-holders, we often give until our "grief bucket" is overflowing. In this episode, I’m sharing how I moved from burnout to holistic healing.
Learn why I stopped using self-care as a "Band-Aid" and started using it as a life structure.
Discover the "check-in" practice to distinguish between your mind’s "shoulds" and your body wisdom.
I share how to "give yourself back to you" after a heavy day of holding space for others.

Happy Spring! 🌿 We are officially past the Equinox, moving from the dark into the light. In this episode, I’m exploring the "art of emergence"—how to reach forward into new growth while staying deeply anchored in your roots.
Learn why rhythmic living and the cycles of the moon are the ultimate anchors when the world feels chaotic.

Discover the balance between the "reaching" energy of spring and the grounding you need to stay stable.

I didn’t become an integrative physician because I had it all figured out.
I became one because I saw strong, competent women lose themselves in the busyness of the world.
And I recognized it… because I had been there too.

I also became one because I knew there was more to healing than conventional medicine alone.

Don’t get me wrong—conventional medicine is a powerful tool.
It saves lives every day.
But it was never designed to carry the full weight of women’s healing.

So many of the symptoms I see in women aren’t just medical.
They are the imprint of expectations.
Of constant giving.
Of productivity.
Of living in a society—and a healthcare system—that wasn’t built with women’s bodies in mind.

Healing becomes more powerful when we combine the best of conventional medicine
with deep work—
understanding what your body needs,
listening to your nervous system,
and supporting your healing with complementary modalities that honor the whole of you.

That’s the work I do.

Ways to work with me:
• personalized, boutique integrative medicine for women in Colorado (in person or via telehealth) through my practice Healing with Intention Integrative Medicine
• Women’s circles & retreats through Honoring the Wisdom Within

Because the vibrant, alive version of you is still there.
She’s not broken.
She’s been carrying too much.

Conventional medicine is powerful.
I practice it. I believe in it. I use it every day.

It has a time and a place.
And it has saved countless lives.

And… it has not always focused on women.
For generations, women’s symptoms were dismissed.
Our pain was minimized.
Our bodies were studied less.
Our concerns were labeled emotional, hormonal, or stress.

So while conventional medicine is essential,
a lot is still missing.

Because healing requires more than treating disease.
It requires relationship—
with your body, your story, your rhythms, and your life.

The missing piece is the plus.

The plus is listening to symptoms as communication.
The plus is honoring the unique experience of being a woman in the world—
the invisible labor, the caregiving, the expectations, the constant holding.
The plus is creating care that sees the whole of you.

Spring invites us to tend to the body—
this remarkable vessel that carries us through everything.

This is medicine for women.
Medicine that takes women seriously.
Medicine that listens.
