I’m shifting my business away from traditional talk therapy.
And the reason is personal.

For years, I tried to heal what had happened to me through words.
Talk therapy helped — it gave me insight, language, and a sense of being seen.

But my body was still holding so much.

I hated how I looked.
I felt disconnected from my s*xuality and my pleasure.
I carried a belief that I didn’t deserve to feel good in my body.

I couldn’t always find words for what my nervous system was holding — the grief, the fear, the darkness.

Then I found movement.

Through dance therapy, I discovered a way to express what my mouth never could and process what had been frozen in place for years.

That experience changed how I practice.

Now I work with women who’ve done the talking, who understand their trauma intellectually, but still feel stuck in their bodies.

I now offer trauma-informed online dance therapy — safe, body-led spaces for embodied change.

This work changed my life.
And it’s the foundation of how I now support other women.

We suffer collectively when girls are taught to abandon their wild, embodied selves.
We grow into women who have forgotten the wisdom of our cycles, the intelligence of our bodies, the quiet power that lives in our hips, our breath, our presence.

And then we wonder why our daughters struggle to see their own brilliance.

When we liberate the mother, we free the girl.
When we come home to our bodies, we change the future for the next generation.

Trauma-informed practice is essential in any healing or therapeutic space — particularly those serving women.

At its core, trauma-informed care recognises that behaviours, emotions and nervous system responses are not pathologies to be corrected, but adaptations to lived experience.

This approach prioritises:
• Psychological and emotional safety
• Choice and consent
• Agency and pacing
• Respect for the body’s wisdom

In trauma-informed spaces, clients are not asked to “push through” distress or retraumatise themselves in the name of healing. Instead, practitioners work with the nervous system, not against it.

Importantly, trauma-informed practice communicates a powerful message:
Nothing about you is too much.

Not your history.
Not your stress.
Not the ways your body learned to survive.

Healing becomes possible when women are met with respect, patience and safety — rather than urgency or judgement.

This is not optional best practice.
It is ethical, embodied, and necessary.

My professional path into somatic therapy and movement-based healing began in the early 2000s, when I joined a Women’s Dance Therapy group during my university studies.

That experience fundamentally reshaped how I understand healing, leadership and embodiment — not as something imposed on the body, but something that emerges through it.

Twenty years on, I now teach body-based tools for nervous system regulation, body autonomy and radical self-respect to women globally, with a particular focus on supporting women through the peri-menopause transition.

This stage of life is often framed as decline.
In my work, it is a powerful initiation — when women are invited to listen more deeply and lead more truthfully from the body.

I’m currently opening an online women’s circle starting February 24, designed to support embodied change during this transition.

If this aligns with your work, values, or personal journey, feel free to reach out.

Over the years, working as a psychotherapist and educator, I’ve noticed the same threads in many women’s stories.

Are these our collective wounds?
Are trauma, grief, abandonment, abuse truly ours alone —
or something we feel and understand together, in our bodies and our hearts?

And if healing is the answer, is it something we do quietly, alone,
or something that grows stronger when shared?

This is why I started my podcast, What Would the Matriarchy Do?

A space to speak, to listen, to ponder — to explore how we evolve together,
and how curiosity, reflection, and honest inquiry are the quiet work of building a new system.

A place to sit with complexity, honour our experiences,
and imagine what it looks like when women lead with care, wisdom, and presence.

Listen, reflect, and share if this feels like something you’ve been waiting for

💋 The Secrets to Enjoying Yourself as a Peri-Meno Baddie

1. Stop apologising for needing rest.
You’re not lazy — you’re cyclical. Honour the slowdown and you’ll find the spark again faster.

2. Ditch the “anti-ageing” mindset.
You’re not against ageing — you’re for evolving
Swap “youthful” for “powerful.”

3. Eat, move, and dress for joy — not control.
No more punishment workouts or guilt pilates
Pleasure is a hormone-balancing act.

4. Say no like a woman who trusts her own wisdom.
Peri-Meno boundaries hit different. You’ve earned your “no.” Use it.

5. Stay turned on — to life.
Pleasure doesn’t always mean s*x. It’s warmth, rhythm, creativity, curiosity. Keep following what lights your cells up.

6. Find your coven.
Your friends are medicine. Coffee dates, dance floors, or voice notes — community regulates the nervous system.

7. Upgrade your self-talk.
Replace “I’m losing it” with “I’m recalibrating.” Your hormones aren’t betraying you — they’re refining your truth.

8. Reclaim ritual.
Hot bath? Moon walk? Burning old journals? Make transition sacred again.

9. Laugh at the chaos.
Mood swings, flushes, brain fog — yep, they’re wild. But humour keeps you sovereign.

10. Remember who you are.
You’re not fading. You’re distilling. Becoming more potent, not less.

🔥 10 symptoms of peri-menopause you might have missed

Peri isn’t just hot flushes and skipped periods.
It’s the quiet unraveling, the slow rebuild, and the daily “WTF is happening to me?”

Here are 10 signs that might not make the pamphlet:
1. Crying at dog ads (again).
2. Rage that comes from somewhere deep.
3. Sleep that used to be easy — now gone rogue.
4. Forgetting the word for… what’s it called again?
5. A bone-deep tired that no nap fixes.
6. Anxiety that wasn’t there before.
7. Feeling invisible and untamed at the same time.
8. Skin that suddenly hates your favourite serum.
9. A sudden need for solitude — or to burn it all down.
10. Realising your body is asking for a new kind of relationship.

This is not decline.
It’s initiation.
The patriarchy calls it a crisis — the matriarchy calls it a becoming.
