hi hi hi <3 in case you are new to me or this space or this journey, let me share a baby bit on why my work spills from my marrow and into the world. the last 15 years have been a slow roll back to myself and this bod and a trip of embodying a life of authenticity, alignment and heart. my road and path of rediscovering, reinhabiting, reclaiming has taken time and a continuous learning to navigate and heal sexual trauma, people pleasing, perfectionism, parenthood and most recent, sobriety. this open hearted, raw nerved living has truly brought me to life and is 100% made possible by the daily work of meditation, movement, breath practice and good honest connections. and hot damn, i know deep in muh bones my purpose in this world is to share what i’ve learned.
