My Story

A woman wearing black and white leggings leaps into the air, demonstrating energy and grace in her athletic pose.

For years, I lived on autopilot — ruled by “shoulds,” "have to," "need to," chasing someone else’s dream.

When a huge life decision hit, I thought I had no choice but to keep going. Too far in to turn back.

Wrong.

The truth smacked me in the face: I did have a choice. I just couldn’t see it.

A paradigm shift and the beginning of my homecoming journey— unlearning what wasn’t mine, reclaiming what was, and living from truth instead of survival and old programming.

Before that? I was stuck in the invisible prison of “I don’t have a choice” — a massive blind spot I didn’t know I had.

Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.
— Carl Jung

With the help of brilliant teachers like Marisa Peer and Peter Crone, I started uncovering the false identities running my life: I’m a disappointment. It’s not safe to be me. I’m misunderstood. I’m bad.

Heavy stuff — and all untrue based on my limited perception as a child.

Those lenses birthed coping patterns: people-pleasing, perfectionism, self-abandonment — all just strategies for safety based on the illusion of separation and my best attempt to find solutions. Once I saw them for what they were, everything shifted.

Processing and integrating meant facing the depths of the dark shadows, tending to my hurt inner child, loving these parts of myself, allowing myself to really feel — fully embracing it all.  And that changed my relationship to my past, myself, and my story.

I still find myself in the muck sometimes, however now, I don’t get stuck. I pivot. I grow with curiosity instead of shame and judgment.

I have a whole perspective of life that orients and anchors any challenge.

This journey shaped how I support others — blending professional tools with lived wisdom. I’ve created a space where transformation is soul-led, deep and lasting.

My offerings are for those who resonate with this. For those who can see a bit of themselves in my story. For those who want to shift out of victim consciousness into living powerfully and are not sure how, yet. For those who feel stuck and frustrated by not having answers.

I see you, I get you.

In addition to 1:1 support, I host women’s circles, lead song and dance circles, facilitate rites of passage ceremonies and other seasonal events.
