Have you tried Google Ads but it didn't work for you? Hard truth. It's not Google Ads it's you. I know because it happened to me. Everything changed when I worked with Jamie. And I'm really bad at keeping secrets so I'm sharing him with you.

I teamed up with Jamie Reutershan of .marketing to talk all things digital marketing for therapists in this webinar.

If you want the link to this interview comment "SHARE" below and I will get it to you.

There is a trend right now of people posting their "betrayal" list online. It is all tongue-in-cheek and seems like it is all in good fun. But I'm not doing it. I'm starting a Loyalty List Here's why...

1. I'm a trauma therapist. Look up who started the trend.
2. I'm a trauma therapist. I want to talk about and promote safety and trust.
3. I'm a trauma therapist and law of attraction nerd. Even tongue-in-cheek negativity attracts more negativity. I want to focus on the things I love so I can get more things I love in my life.
4. I'm a trauma therapist. I try to lead with an open heart so I can create a safe space for the people who need it the most.

Thank you to everyone who commented and messaged after my post about stress responses—it’s clear so many of us are craving calmer days and a little more nervous system support.

If you're a mom who often feels reactive, shut down, or just exhausted from trying to stay “regulated” while juggling everything, I’m hosting a live workshop on Friday, August 22nd:

🌀 The Body Knows: A Somatic Skills Workshop for Stressed-Out Moms
📍 90 minutes on Zoom
📚 Hands-on practices to help you feel less triggered + more grounded
❌ Not therapy—just real tools for real-life mom moments

If that sounds like something you’d want in your back pocket, I’d love for you to join me. Just comment or DM me and I’ll send you the link 💛

Moms, can we normalize something?

You’re not broken because you get overwhelmed.
You’re not failing because your toddler’s meltdown makes you want to scream too.

Often, what we think is a “parenting issue” is actually a nervous system issue.
Your body is responding to pressure, noise, and chaos in the way it was wired to—especially if no one taught you how to reset it.

We can’t always control what our kids do…
But we can learn to work with our own nervous system so we show up the way we want to.

If this hits home, I have something beautiful I’m offering soon (specifically for moms who feel this). Let me know if you’d like me to tag you when I share more 💛

One of my favorite “in-the-moment” resets when mom life gets loud:

🌬️ Inhale slowly through your nose for 4 counts
🫁 Exhale longer through your mouth for 6 counts
👣 Press your feet into the floor
🧠 Name 3 things you see in the room

That’s it.
Nothing fancy, no crystals or yoga pants required. Just a tiny check-in to let your body know: You’re here. You’re safe.

We talk so much about staying calm—but most of us were never taught how.
Want more tips like this? I’ve been putting together some ideas to share soon. Let me know if you’d want them!

I love this quote. I believe in the drive we each have to move toward healing and flourishing. You are not your symptoms. You are wired for self-righting. This is the place to begin. Knowing this is at the heart of the work I do with my clients.

I am so excited to share this online experiential workshop for stressed-out moms so they can stop reacting and living with regret and can still show up for everyone else.

You hold space for everyone else and everything gets stuffed down inside of you all day. All the worry, anger, pressure, non-stop motion...and then something happens. It feels like you just snap. Then you fall into deep regret. You don't want to be triggered and react but it feels like your head is going to explode and you can't stop it.

I created something I wish I had as a mom of little ones. I will guide you through understanding what is happening to your nervous system and share the small things you can do for yourself to get relief, feel more present and help you respond instead of react to the chaos. These are things I learned as a mom and as a therapist and I want to share it with you. I will guide you through new skills and then help you learn how to incorporate it into your life.

I am hosting this workshop on Eventbrite on August 22nd, 12-1:30pm EST. Click on the link to get more information and to register. Please share this with another mama who can use this.

Hey, mama. Stressed and stretched thin? Learn body-based tools to regulate your nervous system and feel more in control.
