My Journey
HERE'S HOW IT ALL BEGAN
For years, I struggled with accepting myself as I truly was. I felt lost, disconnected, and consumed by fear—fear of judgment, of not fitting in, and the relentless belief that I was never enough for anyone or anything.
I kept people at arm’s length, terrified of letting them see the real me. And when someone got too close, I would sabotage the relationship before they could uncover the parts of me I was so ashamed of. Trapped in a cycle of emotional overwhelm and hopelessness, I couldn’t see a way out.
But that pain eventually became my catalyst for change.
I began exploring emotional expression, somatic healing, and embodiment practices—tools that slowly brought me back to myself. These became the foundation of my work today. But the biggest transformation came when I discovered Human Design.
HUMAN DESIGN: THE PERMISSION SLIP TO BE ME
Human Design gave me something I didn’t know I needed: permission to fully accept myself.
No longer looking to fix, change, heal or mend what I discovered wasn’t broken.
As a Manifesting Generator, I discovered that my multi-passionate nature is not a flaw but my superpower. When I follow what lights me up, I unlock a wellspring of energy and joy—and I’m here to share that with others.
With Emotional Authority, I learned to ride my emotional waves instead of fighting them. Feeling deeply is part of my design, and by embracing this, I began to see my emotions as guides, not burdens.
And as a 5/1 Profile, I uncovered my natural gift for leadership and problem-solving. I’m here to investigate, dig deep, uncover the wisdom others seek, and lead with integrity and purpose.
For the first time, I saw my sensitivity, my curiosity, and my need for depth not as things to fix but as the essence of who I am.
This changed everything.
SHARING THIS WISDOM WITH THE WORLD — As I embodied my design, my life began to transform:
I cultivated a deep, intimate relationship with myself, one built on trust, acceptance, and love.
I found my voice, something that had been shut down for many years to the point I struggled to hold a conversation, maintain eye contact, and even say “hello” without some liquid courage, today I have built my dream business and worked with thousands of people and held over 400 in person and online events.
I released the belief that I am not good enough, and have cultivated a deep sense of self-worth, self-love and a deep knowing of my value. And in doing so, I stopped settling for “good enough” and created a life of alignment, joy, and deep authenticity.
I rewrote my relationship patterns, shifting from cycles of disconnection to profound connection.
I began expressing my emotions, desires, needs and boundaries unapologetically.
I reconnected with my body, unlocking the pleasure, wisdom, and aliveness I had long buried.
I continue to deepen my capacity to hold space for big emotions, triggers, and the challenges of life, relationships, and motherhood… The wisdom, tools and practices I have received and developed have completely TRANSFORMED my entire life, as well as how I mother my children and support my family and community.
