Hi 👋 I’m Janel & I’d love to be your relationship coach!

I help single women in your 30s and 40s heal anxious attachment to create and grow your dream relationship 🌿. I am here to help you live in your joy and playfulness, activate your sensual pleasure, communicate vulnerably, and feel secure in love 💖.

In my 1-1 coaching, I listen with an empathic and non-judgmental ear, help you get clarity on your goals and challenges in dating and relationship, and support you to take action in progress toward your goals 🙌🏽. With a focus on somatic attachment, I guide you in practices to regulate your nervous system and create emotional safety and connection in relationship 😌.

✨ Why work with me? I healed my anxious attachment to create and grow a safe, loving, and committed relationship. You can too! ✨

I am a certified coach with a clinical background, Master’s degrees from Columbia and Johns Hopkins Universities, and 14 years of experience working with women. I am not an expert or a therapist, nor am I a perfect partner. I am a woman with success and failure in relationship that have given me a touch of wisdom, a lot of humility, an undying desire to grow in my ability to love and be loved ❤️‍🔥, and a passion to support others on the journey.

In service to love 🙏🏻,

Janel

Breath of Love 🖤

I vividly remember my first experience with breathwork. I felt deep pain and sadness buried in my heart rising to the surface. Then a nurturing voice seemed to speak to me from inside, “I feel you, you’re safe, you’re loved.”

Over the past five years of practicing and facilitating breathwork as an practitioner, I’ve experienced and observed many times the breath as an intuitive knowing and loving witness to our hearts deepest pains.

The heart, it seems, is a deep, dark, vast cavern, where many tender and vulnerable parts of ourselves hide: children, angry, sad, ashamed, wounded, rejected, abandoned, and outcast parts.

The breath, it seems, shines a light and invites these tender parts of ourselves out of hiding, welcoming them to be seen.

To be seen, ironically, is just what these hiding parts want. Just to be seen, heard, felt, and held. Just to receive our attention and acknowledgment. This is what our hearts have been waiting for. This is love.

And so the breath comes in and loves us, all parts of us, just as we are.

🖤

Please join me for a Breath of Love guided journey , Ubud Yoga House, Monday, 3:30pm. DM for details.

Self love and sisterhood 🌸

It’s not always easy to love ourselves. Sometimes we need to help each other.

5 years ago, I met my dear friend in a naked photo shoot on the beach. We have been besties ever since. I remember looking at her and all of the other women and thinking how beautiful they were, and how unique. And then I thought, wow, maybe I am beautiful and unique too. Seeing the beauty in them, helped me see the beauty in me.

A few days ago I was not feeling very good about myself. I told her. She listened. Then she started to tell me all of the beautiful things she sees in me. And she kept going on and on until I was surprised, a little embarrassed, and then almost cried. She filled my heart with love and helped me to see the beauty in me again.

Self love is not a journey we have to do alone. We can help each other. Let’s remember to tell ourselves and each other just how beautiful you are, I am, we are.

🌸🌸

thank you for your friendship, i love you, you’re beautiful

📸 thank you for creating this naked photo shoot, such an empowering and bonding experience

Btw is hosting a sensual self love ritual tomorrow at my place in Ulu…join us! And check out her womens retreat later this month 💖

The power to choose 🌍

Twelve years ago, I made one of my first trips to Africa as a clinical specialist with a sexual health team working to increase access to birth control including long acting methods like IUDs.

Today I’m starting a new project working on updates to a training program for health workers on pre exposure prophylaxis for HIV. Just like birth control, PREP is now available in long acting forms too!

It’s inspiring to see how the field has advanced over the last decade with more options and a client-centered approach to empower more CHOICE in sexual health.

Health disparities around the world are overwhelming, work sometimes tedious, and progress slow. I got tired and didn’t care anymore and quit. But finding renewed inspiration and appreciation for those who choose to be in service to the global collective. It’s been an honor to know and work with you.

It’s 3am.

I wake up to that same frantic voice in my head again, demanding that I tell her where I am going.

I want to make something up to appease her. But this time I tell the truth.

I don’t know, I say calmly.

She looks at me with fire in her eyes like she is ready to attack.

Hear me out, I say to her,

Life has never been about the destination for me.

Im not much for goal setting and I don’t make New Years resolutions or 5 year plans. Those I tried failed to make way for others.

I don’t track my pace when I run, or try to beat my personal best, I just run however fast I want, however long I feel, in whatever direction calls.

Explorers always inspired me more than Queens. I didn’t come to rule or achieve. I came to experience and be free.

I’ve never stayed on one path long enough to make it from A to B. Straight lines never moved me like the swirly ones.

Im not easily defined and I don’t fit neatly into a box. I’m like an amorphous blob slipping and sliding in between, shape shifting and stretching out in all directions.

To be in movement and flow is to be alive. I’ve never really known where I was going or felt like I had somewhere to arrive. But oh the places I have been!

She softens a little and tears come to her eyes.

I know you’re scared.
I get scared too.
Sometimes I wonder if I’m doing it all wrong. I feel lost. I fear being left behind.

But how can we be lost if we belong everywhere?
How can we be left behind if we’re on a journey to nowhere?

Now I am the one asking her the questions.

She stares at me blankly.
I can’t tell if she’s convinced or confused.
But for now she is quiet.

You are safe, no matter where we go, I am here with you always, I whisper in her ear as I hold her in my arms. She gently closes her eyes and we drift back to sleep.
