Reconnecting Through Reflection and Support

I’ve been taking this time to step back, recenter, support myself, my family, my clients, my community.

Observing the World with Compassion and Grounded Energy

I’m still observing, feeling, processing what’s happening in our external environment and world with compassion. I’ve been rebuilding my own capacity the last several months holding both unity and prayer for the collective while grounding myself, my energy firmly in what’s mine to hold. 25 years of doing this work and I’m happy to share it is ongoing because it’s supposed to be. Being “regulated” doesn’t mean you are Zen. It means you have the capacity to hold the charge of what life throws at you with presence and flexibility. The stress and triggers will never go away yet I promise you the impact it holds on you shifts.

Understanding Neurodivergence as a Holistic Experience

You see, being Neurodivergent can be explained in a variety of ways. At least, that’s how I see it for myself. My sensitivities are lineage, they are genetic (or modification thereof), they are environmental, they reside in the stars, in ancient philosophies, in current research. Is all this external information helpful? The testing, the podcasts, etc. Does it confirm what I already know? Yes AND it was my KNOWING my entire life.

Embracing a Non-Linear Path to Purpose

As “they” say the path is never linear. While it’s taken me 49 years to get clear on my purpose..... all roads, all experiences, all jobs, all lessons, all losses are a beautiful synthesis to this moment.

Integrative Client Work: Mind, Body, Spirit, and Community

In my work with clients, my method focuses on foundational needs - physical wellbeing, mental and emotional flourishing, spiritual growth, and community. I draw from indigenous practices and other deep rooted philosophies for wellbeing.....mind, body, spirit....along with cutting edge research in Neuroscience and metabolic health. Whether you come to me with past trauma, or chronic dysregulation or stress the way forward is integration of all parts. Chronic overwhelm or burnout at its core is disconnection.......disconnection from self, others, community. It’s multidimensional because we are complex beings.

Rooted in Legacy: Why This Work Matters Now

Why the shift in my work the last several years....why now?

Honoring the Women Who Came Before Us

I’m doing this for myself, for my daughter, for my mother, first and foremost.

For my Mom who left us too soon and other women who have been gaslighted by the medical community, who have been told their conditions were "psychosomatic", who were pushed pharmaceuticals for pain instead of witnessing, honoring and dealing with the pain. The physical pain that we know is deeply rooted in the emotional body.

Empowering the Intuitive and Isolated Caregivers

For those of you who know and trust your intuition, your inner guidance, and stand firmly in making seismic and systemic shifts to what we've historically called "healthcare".

I’m doing it for those of you who don't have your village, who are single parents or grandparents caring of young children, or who are running businesses and households at the same time, who are wedged between caring for elderly parents and your own kids, who are isolated because you are breaking family patterns and navigating all these dynamics alone.
