🥳I’m taking a moment to celebrate today, because today is my birthday!

🔥With each year, I reflect on my truths. This year, here they are:

1. Time, health & mindset are gifts.

2. Most everything that feels like a problem is figure-out-able.

3. Gratitude + curiosity + kindness are ingredients to help with 1 and 2.

4. The Universe has my back ...and yours, if you let it!

5. Learning the skill of discernment and how to trust your intuition even though others try to tell you you're wrong is a gift. Refine it and you'll be successful at whatever success means to you.

🎂Fun fact: Did you know when I was a kid I hated birthdays? Still not fond of them. It's actually not because "I'm getting older" like most people think.

✅ Age is just a number.
✅ Mostly sensory, social, and anxiety related.
✅ But l've always been grateful for the wisdom age brought. And I always find a way to treat myself and honor how far l've come. s

Can you guess if I’m a sensory seeker or a sensory avoider based on this throwback photo of me!?

One of the many ways I’ve been thinking outside-the-box lately to support my sensory systems with an ongoing health issue! 😂

What’s one silly or ridiculous thing you’ve done to support your nervous system or sensory system!? (No need to add a picture for proof, lol, only if you feel called to).

I’m grateful for all the little things because they truly are the big things. ✨

For my health, family, friends, and clients- current, past and present. Taking a moment to brag here 👀👇

➡️ I work with some *incredible* moms who keep showing up in big ways in a million little unseen ways that no one else notices.

Thank you for the trust you put in me and the work you do for your family every single day. It is an honor to be a part of it. 🙏🏻

I’ve quietly navigated some health challenges this year and I am grateful it has finally started improving.

Thank you for being here, for every like, share, follow, and for your word of mouth referrals. It allows me to do what I love and help neurodivergent families transform obstacles into opportunities. 💫

It’s a BIG celebration today! 🥳 It’s my Health-iversary! 4 years ago today, I almost died from toxic shock syndrome from a tampon.

💔My body was giving me clues but I ignored them until my body shut down fast (like minutes and hours fast).

I am fortunate & grateful to still be here today! ❤️‍🩹

It’s common for those with TSS to lose limbs and lives. Thankfully, I only evicted my uterus, but it had its complications before it even got to that point. I was also escaping an abusive relationship that had gotten worse at a time when I was the most vulnerable I had ever been.

➡️ It took me a year to reset my nervous system with the same emotional regulation strategies I teach parents, therapists, teachers & kids.

✨I also learned new somatic & energy healing practices with 4 different mentors and 500+ hours of research + practice. This is still an active part of my personal life to maintain my health.

With the help of some incredible humans & community, I was able to recover and eventually thrive (Some days are still challenging - don’t get me wrong!)

💥This is a BIG reason why I advocate & teach parents and children to listen to their intuition and body signals, no matter what an “expert” says and find professionals, humans, and community that shares a piece of your unique lived experience.

It is life saving. 🩷

➡️➡️➡️ PS…. This is one of the WHYs behind DEN - a parenting community for parents of neurodivergent kids, looking for resources and clarity on emotional regulation and nervous system regulation for the whole family, not just your child.
