2025.
Year of the Snake.

The year that, I thought, was meant to be mine.
And in many ways, it was.
It just wasn’t easy.

This season is loud with new year, new me energy and reminders not to burn out. I’m not here for any of that. I’m here to say: we made it.

2025 was polarizing—inside and out. There were distractions, grief, exhaustion, and moments it felt easier to let go than to keep going. But if you’re here reading this, then we didn’t disappear. We stayed. And that matters.

This year showed me how resilient we actually are.

I’ve moved through a lot personally, and I’ve been deeply honored to witness what so many of you have been carrying. Thank you for trusting me with your stories, even in small, unplanned moments. I’ve been held by community more than I can say, and I hope to return that care many times over.

I believe the skin we shed this year is making room for something beautiful. I’m stepping into 2026 with clear eyes—no illusions that it will be easy, but a renewed commitment to stop bargaining with my own excuses. I’m getting crystal clear on what I want and how I show up for it.

I’m excited to see where this work lands—in my relationships, in my practice, and in how I serve. In the coming months, I’ll be offering goal-setting sessions to help us get clear, stay supported, and move toward the lives we’re actually trying to build.

Here’s to shedding, grounding, and becoming.

Thank you so much to each and everyone of you for showing up as you are everyday. 🖤

Wellness… or wholeness?

It’s a gentle question.
Especially right now, as many of us are moving more carefully with our time, energy, and money.

Wellness is a big word. A beautiful one.
It’s also become an enormous industry—full of offerings, promises, and things to buy in the name of feeling better.

But when I ask about wellness versus wholeness, this is what I mean:

Wholeness isn’t something you purchase.
It’s something you slowly return to.

Most of the people who come to my table aren’t looking for perfection or trends. They’re longing to move with less pain, pick up their grandkids, recover with more ease, delay surgery, or simply feel back inside their own body again.

Many of us learned to hover just outside ourselves as a form of protection. There’s no shame in that. But healing often begins when we gently come home.

That’s why, after most sessions, I share free resources—to help the work keep unfolding. When you use them, the effects don’t fade. They deepen, layer, and support a fuller way of living.

If this speaks to you, you’re welcome to message me or book with me at Elements Wellness Spa in Brevard, NC.

Thank you for trusting me, for showing up, and for walking this path with me 🤍

Hello friends! I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude to every single one of you who gets on my table, follows my content, or sends someone my way. I literally couldn’t do this work without you. This path has brought me so many beautiful experiences, friendships, and moments of deep connection — I feel honored every time I get to work with you.

I also want to share a little bit about my name change.
I’m still working at Elements Wellness Spa in Brevard — no changes there!
I simply wanted my page to better reflect the kind of work I’m passionate about and to create a space where I can start sharing regularly — tips, education, and any offers happening at the spa.

As many of you know, I take a lot of classes. Clients always ask, “What are you learning now?” And honestly…fair question. Each class has added something beautiful to my practice, but there has always been a bigger question under it all: How do all these modalities come together? What’s the thread?

That’s where Niazai work entered my life. (I promise I’ll explain this modality soon.)
Niazai helped me understand the way I naturally track the body — emotionally, energetically, physically — and how the “map” of a person unfolds during a session.

So that’s how the new name was born.

Mapped Bodywork reflects the way we follow the body’s story — the feelings, old injuries, patterns, and holding that show up and ask to be released. Sometimes the work is silent. Sometimes it brings tears. Often it brings laughter. Sometimes your left shoulder hurts, yet we find ourselves working on your right hip — and you trust the process — and somehow your shoulder feels better.

That’s the mapping.

This work isn’t always easy. Sometimes your brain spirals or unearths things you thought you had moved on from. But for clients who allow the magic, the wandering, and the release… the results are powerful. Whether we have one session or ten, I deeply appreciate the trust you place in me.

Thank you for being here as this next layer unfolds.
I’m excited to share more with you — and excited for this new chapter as Mapped Bodywork. 💛

Hey friends! I wrestled this week with even posting this, but I ultimately decided that I should share it. With all that is going on in the world I struggle to see a way to help after I get home from work. Sometimes it is just a heavy day, or existence, however I’m so grateful I am in this line of works #. With all that is going on in the world I have decided to take 50% of my cash and venmo tips for the month of November (that’s all I can commit to at this moment) and donate it to our local pantry that houses and truly takes care of our community.

Why just cash and Venmo? Honestly because my ADHD self is terrible at looking at the details of my check, those are money sources that are more tangible for my brain.

Thank you all for doing your part for your community and thank you for keeping me in the massage world. I truly have the best clients.

Don’t forget to check in on your friends. Social media is cool, and I think we can almost all agree that in person beats online relationships. I mean can you truly enjoy a cup of coffee over text? Going on a walk while on the phone is cool, but trust me when. I say that people don’t live to just listen to you describe the weird stuff you see, the mushrooms or flowers or white squirrels. They would probably much rather be there with you.
So in a time of constant connectivity, what if we left our phone in our bags and spent time with one person for an hour a week? What does that look like? A massage? A cup of coffee? Just showing up unannounced to someone who would appreciate that?
There are big things coming this year in my life that I believe I will need a strong community in order to see them through. This ain’t a call to “find your tribe”. It is simply a call to interact with humans so that in the days ahead, we can remember peoples humanity, even when it is inconvenient and doesn’t support our agenda.

I hope this year brings beauty into your lives. Be generous. Romanticize your life. Find a friend.

“just because they are able to carry so much doesn’t mean each step isn’t a struggle.”-The forager’s Daughter Tarot

For my 33rd birthday I pulled some tarot, and the last card I pulled was the 10 of wands. This particular set shows an ant with 10 wands and a rock with a fossilized plant on top.
My life has been full of holding other people’s truths, shame, hurt, pain, fears. But on the other side, I’ve also been able to hold joys, celebrations, love, and more. These days I find myself drawing in more and asking “Is this even mine to hold?” The answer more often than not is, NO! Not a small no, but a big NO! That’s not to say that I can’t or won’t hold space for people, but the interaction has to be different. I can listen, hold, and let go. To have peace. There is so much going on that some of us can feel so overburdened, but there’s so much good as well. What is something YOU can let go? What is something maybe we could leave on the table after a massage or energy session, that doesn’t have to be picked up again?
How are YOU changing your story?

Hey. It’s been a while. A lot has happened since I posted on here.
So let’s start with some honesty.
The last 5 years have been more challenging than I can even put words to. But it’s also opened so many door for growth. This first picture is what my breakfast table looked like almost everyday day last spring. Beautiful but chaotic. I could barely get out of bed most days, the house we lived in was honestly a nightmare and got worse everyday. We were constantly in the car, falling out with family members, rescued a dog, only to have her be extremely aggressive to our sweet Roo. I could go on and on. But I don’t want to focus on the negative, and I don’t want to ignore it either. There is no appreciation for light without shadow.

Hey all! It's been a while so let's catch up!

Living in Western North Carolina is full of uncertainty and more stress on hearts than previously. My focus has been on making sure that myself and my family are taken care of emotionally as well as physically. (Where we are located we did not actually occur storm damage, and are fine.) We have been teaming up with a neighbor to crowd source needs as they come up and to just be a safe space for people to escape to if needed.

In all of this, I have decided to step back from my practice under Lighten Up. I love all of those humans dearly, but with all the roads closures it was almost two hours one way, plus with all the unannounced road fixings, I would drive there only to have a client unable to leave their house. I have learned much, and miss those humans immensely.

On top of this, I have started a 7-year program to continue the work on myself in order to create an even more unique experience for each client. As well as continuing my sound healing courses. (Don't worry guys, I talked myself out of acupuncture school, lol.)

Foster pups, our own pup, crowd sourcing, communicating into the night about new needs, cold weather, rain, and life. I just needed to step back and do less. So with that catch me at Elements wellness spa in Brevard for bodywork, or at home for sound healing work.

I hope you all are finding space for the greatness of you this season!

Hello friends! Just popping in to update you on my hours!
For the foreseeable future, my Lake Lure office hours will be sparse and ONLY Wednesday.
For the next 4 weeks my Brevard hours are also changing, with very limited availability Fridays and Saturdays, as in only two late afternoon appointments.

Thank you all for your understanding and support!
Come get some unwind time in Lake Lure at Lighten Up or in Brevard at Elements Wellness Spa.

Another year older. As I said goodby to 31, Zach, Roo and I decided to hike to a ghost town with little research, baked goods, cheese, and some water. We picked the most appropriate way in to say goodbye to the past year and hello to spring. We walked a total of 19 miles, most of which was straight up or straight down 3,000 feet. We were almost there when the Homer in front of us turned around because he thought we were only halfway there, that was at mile 9 1/2. Mile 9 3/4 we found the ghost town.
The hike was hard. The hike was beautiful. And we couldn't have had better weather. But the amount of effort this hike took seemed like a good summary of the year we were leaving behind. Uncomfortable, hard, and beautiful.

Here's to 32. Hopefully it continues on with grace and beauty.

Why does your therapist recommend multiple sessions?

Consistency isn't just a cool word, it's the secret to supercharged massages! Here's the scoop: the more consistent you are with your sessions, the more your body tunes into the relaxation groove.

It's like training for a big event but way more relaxing! With each session, your muscles get into the rhythm, making it easier to unwind those stuck places, destress and clear your mind.

So, let's keep those massage dates regular! Your body will be shouting "Thank you!" with every knead and stroke.

When I first started massage, I actually hated receiving massage, and even being touched. But that's a different story. Now if I go two weeks without a session, my body and mind let me know. It may seem like a lot to get 12 or more massages a year, but I have noticed I don't have the aches and pains my friends that don't receive regular sessions have. I find massage to be preventative work as well as treating acute and chronic life aches.
