Come Home to Your Body, Your Truth & Your Power
Somatic healing, feminine embodiment, conscious relationships, and nervous system regulation — woven into one integrated pathway back to love, safety, and deeper connection.
Welcome Love, I’m Monique Carmela
A feminine embodiment mentor, somatic guide, and relationship & nervous system coach for women and couples who are ready to unravel old conditioning, release shame, heal deeper emotional imprints, and rise rooted in love, truth, and authentic expression.
My work brings together the body, the heart, the nervous system, the feminine, and your relational patterns — because true transformation isn’t one-dimensional.
It happens when your whole system is met with safety, presence, and truth.
The Sacred Pathway: My 3-Phase Process
This is the integrated journey that underpins all of my work — grounded in somatics, nervous system healing, emotional liberation, and embodied feminine leadership.
Regulate
You reconnect with inner safety — learning to regulate your nervous system, soothe old survival patterns, and build foundations of self-love, self-worth, and self-trust.
This is where your body exhale, softens, and opens.
Integrate
We dive into the deeper layers — inner child work, shame healing, shadow work, belief systems, attachment wounds, and feminine + masculine integration.
This is where the “good girl” conditioning dissolves and your true voice emerges.
Embody
Your transformation becomes a lifestyle.
You anchor into a new way of being — where authenticity, expression, intimacy, boundaries, and self-honouring become your natural state. You don’t have to “try.” You simply are.

The Devotional Woman Podcast
The Devotional Woman is a podcast for the woman returning to herself. For the woman who is done abandoning her truth, her needs, her softness, and her power.
Hosted by feminine mentor and embodiment guide Monique Carmela, these conversations weave self-devotion, emotional intimacy, nervous system wisdom, motherhood, relationships, and the art of becoming your most authentic, embodied self.
This is a space for the woman who feels the pull to soften, open, remember, and rise. A homecoming into your heart, your truth, and the life you were always meant to live.
