What if your habits are not a discipline problem?

What if they are a memory?

So many of the patterns we struggle with such as procrastination, emotional eating, overworking, or shutting down did not appear out of nowhere. At some point, they helped us feel safe, accepted, or in control.

Your body remembers what your mind may have minimized.

In my newest blog post, I explore how past experiences shape present habits and why awareness, not willpower, is where real change begins.

If you have ever thought, “I know what to do, so why can’t I just do it?” this is for you.

Read the full post and see what shifts when you approach your patterns with curiosity instead of criticism.

Most of us think our habits are about discipline.We believe we just need more willpower.More structure.A better plan.But what if your habits are not a motivation problem at all?What if they are a memory?Not a conscious memory.A nervous system memory.The truth is that our past experiences shape our p...

We're almost through the shedding of the snake. And stepping into the energy of the fire horse.
The snake taught us to release old stories, old patterns, old ways of shrinking or surviving that no longer for who we became. This season has asked us to slow down, feel deeply, heal quietly, and rebuild from the inside out. Even when it felt uncomfortable.
And now comes the fire horse- movement, courage confidence, abs forward momentum. Not rushed. But rooted. Not chaotic but aligned. This is about raising with clarity, purpose, and heart. You didn't come this far to stay small.

You don’t need another diet.
You don’t need another reset.
You don’t need more rules.

What you might need… is a different approach entirely.

Join us February 18th from 7:00–8:30 PM on Zoom for a 90-minute, fun and grounding workshop where you’ll be introduced to the 9 Essential Ingredients for Nourishing Your Wellbeing — a realistic, human approach to health that goes far beyond food.

This is not a detox.
This is not about perfection.

It’s about small, intentional shifts in how you eat, move, rest, think, and care for yourself that can completely change how you feel.

Together, we’ll explore:
✨ Why nutrition alone doesn’t fix burnout
✨ How stress quietly sabotages digestion, sleep, and energy
✨ What your body is actually asking for
✨ How to reconnect with food and self-care without guilt

If you’re tired of feeling exhausted, frustrated, or stuck in cycles that don’t actually support you — this is your invitation to do things differently.

What if this season isn’t about setting new goals, but about noticing what keeps repeating?

So many goals don’t fail because we lack motivation.
They fail because we never slow down long enough to see our patterns.

Patterns show us where our energy leaks.
What triggers our stress.
What quietly pulls us back into the same cycles year after year.

When you start noticing instead of forcing, change becomes more natural.
Awareness does the heavy lifting.

If you’re tired of starting over, maybe this is your invitation to simply begin noticing.

People ask me all the time what drew me to mindfulness.
And the truth is, I didn’t find it.
It found me.

After years of carrying other people’s trauma as a social worker and telling myself “I’m fine” over and over, I didn’t realize how much of that weight was living in my body.
I was grieving, disconnected, and far from my purpose.

Everything shifted when I took the Clarity Catalyst course.
It didn’t just teach me mindfulness.
It brought me back to life.
It brought me back to myself.

It showed me that healing doesn’t mean leaving your work.
It means learning how to stay whole while you are doing it.

If you are helping everyone else but quietly losing yourself, this work might be for you too.

We were taught that slowing down means falling behind.
But constant pushing leads to burnout, breakdown, or illness.
Slowing down is how we stay in this game.
Sustainability over survival.
If you’re learning to move forward without burning out, that’s not weakness......that’s wisdom.

What did you do to slow down today? Let me know in the comments.
