I know what it means to feel like too much and not enough at the same time. To long for belonging, yet feel like no one ever handed you the manual for life everyone else seemed to get. What I didn’t know then was that these sensitivities, my experiences, my pain were the portal keys to reclaiming my power. I just needed to learn how to use them to aid in my self evolution, and believe another way was possible.

I’ve lived through narcissistic abuse, navigated codependency, and walked through the fires of grief, rage, and deep loneliness. I’ve self-abandoned, indulged in relationships that didn’t honor my true value, and spent countless hours beating myself for not being good enough.

Learning how to feel again without drowning, how to transform my mind from a prison to a space of refuge, and learning how to alchemize my pain into meaningful learnings, to own my experience and take responsibility for growing myself up. Which meant letting go of everything I thought I needed to be well, and the person I thought I needed to be, to get there.

I learned how to stay with myself, trust in my direct experience, and reclaim my agency to self-author the person I actually wanted to be, into existence. I learned to fall in love with the shameful parts and stop seeing my body as a problem but as a portal delivering me to my truth. This is what I teach, to help others get out of their incessant thinking and ground in the brilliance of their being, guiding them out of survival mode into meaningful connection with all that life has to offer.

I’m not here to save you—I’m here to see you. To challenge you. To remind you of what’s true when you forget. To honor your complexity. And to trust you until you can trust yourself.
