In my early 30s, I had two seemingly unrelated but very painful experiences that changed the course of my life. In the first downfall that spanned about a year, I entered into a depressive state with suicidal ideation. It felt sudden and unwarranted. I was six years into my dream career living in a beautifulContinue reading “My Story”

The Wanderer Knows
I’ve never read A Course in Miracles, but I think I experienced one last week. The first day after I turned on my auto-email responder at work to “This email is no longer active”, I woke up in a state of pure euphoria. I felt a lightness that I hadn’t experienced in over 3, longContinue reading “The Wanderer Knows”
An Off-the-Map Journey
Conscious feminine energy is where the journey goes off the map–surrendering to the unknown and softening our resistance to change, discomfort, and risk. Leaving behind a job, relationship or other place of stuck comfort has an inherently feminine archetypal force behind it. It isn’t foolish or rash. When a womxn knows that it’s time forContinue reading “An Off-the-Map Journey”
Mindfucking My Way to Victory
Going on your journey–to grow beyond the limits of your ego and follow a path of your own development personally, psychologically, and professionally–requires a lot of courage, but it doesn’t come without a lot of fear, doubt, and even shame. This is about chasing after what you desire most, as opposed to fitting into aContinue reading “Mindfucking My Way to Victory”
Divine Timing
One year ago I initiated a Worker’s Compensation claim due to moderate, unrelenting pain in my right arm from a repetitive motion injury using the computer in my job. I had just returned from a romantic trip to Hawaii with my beloved sweetheart, and I was enjoying an excitement for life, opportunities, and abundance thatContinue reading “Divine Timing”
More Sensuality Please
I grew up in a conservative Christian home and school where girls were expected to save their virginity for marriage and be sweet as pie every waking moment. I attended a religious school from kindergarten through my senior year in a radically conservative environment. We were known for the catchphrase, “If you dance, you getContinue reading “More Sensuality Please”
Finding Pleasure in a World of Plight
Just as the pandemic was beginning to sink into a lull over here in the U.S., the weight of the world somehow got heavier. I don’t need to recount the tragedies we’re all reading about in the news each day—I’m here to remind you that our expansion of self and soul are still important. OurContinue reading “Finding Pleasure in a World of Plight”
Radiant Love From Head to Toe
Sometimes I am overcome with a feeling of such intensity that I don’t know how to express it in the moment. My initial response is to hold it in, while I assess how safe it is to disclose my state of mind. Growing up, I wasn’t taught or encouraged to be anything other than pleasantContinue reading “Radiant Love From Head to Toe”
A Dance to Express My PRBLMS
I have had the most powerful, jaw-dropping, embodied dance at the studio, and yes, I get to brag all up and down this post about it. It came about spontaneously on an unassuming day during what felt like (and continues to feel like) one of the most terrifying and exciting times of my life. TheContinue reading “A Dance to Express My PRBLMS”
This Squeaky Wheel Dances
I’m turning 35 this week! Five years ago, I would never have imagined that I would be where I am right now. It has been an incredible first half of my 30s. The opportunity to take a job and move to California came on my 30th birthday. I proudly walked in the 2017 Women’s MarchContinue reading “This Squeaky Wheel Dances”
