For a long time I could not find my purpose and I could not figure out why.

I had spent years holding onto two versions of myself that were quietly clashing. The woman I was before motherhood and the mother I had become. I was trying to keep all the old pieces of me alive while living a completely different life, and the friction of that was taking up so much space inside me that I genuinely could not see clearly.

Looking back I think I was downplaying the mother identity because I was so busy trying to fit everything else in alongside it. And that meant I was never fully landing in either place.

When I finally let myself feel through all of it, the grief of what I was leaving behind, the resistance, the identity confusion, something started to shift. Gradually. Not all at once. It felt like weights lifting off me, one by one.

And as they lifted, something became visible that had been there the whole time. A path. A sense of purpose so clear and so lit up that I could not believe I had not been able to see it before.

It completely changed everything. My work, my relationships, my friendships, the way I make decisions, the way I think. My husband now refers to me as calm, which is honestly not something anyone would have said about me before. My parenting feels grounded and steady in a way that used to feel impossible when I was pulled in every direction by thoughts and feelings I had not dealt with.

I am actually present now. Not performing presence while my brain is somewhere else entirely.

When I was at capacity, desire felt so far away. Flat. Hard to even vision anything. Once I faced what I had been avoiding and felt what needed to be felt, I eventually found myself able to want things again. Real things. Not what I thought I should want. The actual felt pull toward a life that fits who I actually am now.

All of that was always available to me. It was just crowded out.

Have you ever had the sense that you are somehow missing things that are right in front of you?

You’re trying.

You’re smart and capable.

But you feel like you are living in a kind of tunnel. Functional, getting through it, but narrow. Uts like your vision has shrunk without you noticing.

That is what happens in a body that is carrying too much.

When you are at capacity, your brain quite literally filters out anything that does not feel immediately relevant to managing the load. Opportunities that were always there become invisible. Your own instincts go quiet. Desire gets muffled. You might know what you think you should want but the actual felt pull toward it has gone somewhere you cannot quite reach.

You are missing them because your system is too full to register them. Its got nothing to do with whether you were ready or not.

And when that load starts to lift, even a little, what becomes available is kind of extraordinary. It’s amazing to see what happens when that space to receive becomes available.

That is what this week’s episode is about.

So head on over to the Feel It First podcast, get cozy, and have a listen…and if it lands, please come back and find me and tell me! I love hearing from you ❤️

You have heard the words. Nervous system. Regulation. Capacity. Window of tolerance.

And intellectually you get it. But it has stayed kind of abstract, like something you understand in theory but have never actually been able to locate in your own body.

Nobody really describes what it feels like. What you are actually working toward. What the other side of all this work is supposed to feel like when you get there.

So let me try.

It does not feel like achieving a state. It does not feel like performing calm or holding yourself together really well. It feels more like something lifting. A soft inner exhale that does not immediately reverse itself. Thoughts slowing down enough that you can actually hear yourself think. Being able to sit with something without immediately needing to fix it or move away from it.

And if that sounds completely foreign to you right now, if you genuinely cannot remember the last time you felt anything close to that, that is not a you problem. That is what living at capacity for a long time does. It becomes so familiar it just starts to feel like normal life.

This week’s episode is about what you are actually working toward. And for the first time it might feel like a real possibility rather than just a concept.

Gooooo, jump over to The Feel It First podcast, and have a listen. I promise it’ll feel like a big old exhale and sigh of relief ❤️

I am not saying you have to be in it forever…

I’m not saying you can never do something about it…

But I am saying wait a sec. See how you feel when the acceptance settles in.

Notice how different you feel.
Notice your energy levels.
Notice the mental narrative.
Notice your emotional capacity.

It’s so wild to FEEL what happens when you accept something and lean in, instead of jumping right in to fix it immediately.

I hope this serves as the permission slip you didn’t know you needed today.

❤️

PS: I think it’s time for a breathwork session together, don’t you? Send me a msg to organize your 1:1 session 😍

A little project for you this week…

Write the goals. Get detailed in every way.

Notice how your body feels in response to those goals.

Is there attunment or is there resistance?

Probably resistance, isn’t it?

Can you get dig a bit deeper, breathe a bit deeper, and find out what’s being stored in your body that’s making your goals feel jarring?

Fear? Why?
Anxiety? Why?
Hopelessness? Why?
Worry? Why?

Let the feelings surface, stay with them, meaning don’t force yourself to “fix them” right away.

With every deep breath, allow the feeling to take up more space, really feel it. Move with it how ever your body chooses.

And see what happens.

After a few days come back to the goals you wrote down, and see how your body responds.

What if there’s still resistance? Do that practice again (takes a few mins)

What if there’s attunement? Well, then you’re ready to receive ❤️

I talk about how much your body runs the show on the Feel It First podcast. Go have a listen. 🎧

You have been here before.

New goal, real motivation, genuine effort. You make the plan, you take the steps, you do the work. And for a while it feels like it is working.

And then slowly, you find yourself back in the same feeling.

Same pressure, same doubt, same felling of not quite getting there. And you cannot figure out what you are doing wrong.

So you go back to the strategy. Maybe that needs adjusting. You go back to the mindset work. Maybe you need to believe harder. You look at your habits, your routines, your commitment level. Msybe it could be better.

You interrogate all of it.

But here is the thing. The goal was never the problem.
The emotional environment you have been setting the goal from, that is what keeps recreating the same experience.

Because the nervous system organises around what feels familiar, even when familiar is uncomfortable. Even when you are actively trying to change it.

This week’s episode is about why that happens and what actually shifts it. And it’s not more strategy or better mindset work, it’s Something waaaay deeper.

Head to the Feel It First podcast ❤️

Stop saying we all have the same 24 hours in a day. We don’t.

When I became a mother, the idea of creating a life I wanted, manifesting, whatever you want to call it, felt almost laughable.

Everything I had been taught required time and capacity I simply did not have anymore. Big rituals. Long journaling sessions. Morning routines. Absorption and experimentation and intentional creation.

I was stretched so thin I had nothing left over for any of it.

And then I would come across mainstream manifestation advice and just feel myself close off. Do this, focus on that, protect your energy. From people I genuinely looked up to, who did not have children, who had never had to pour themselves completely into another human being before they had anything left for themselves. When someone said “we all have the same 24 hours in a day” I wanted to throw my phone across the room.

We do not all have the same 24 hours. Not even close.

The world I loved, the woo, the manifestation, the personal growth space, it just did not hold space for mothers. Or for anyone who was at capacity and stretched thin and running on whatever was left at the end of a very long day.

And I kept thinking about how many women had quietly given up on their desires because of this. All because every path they were handed required more than they had to give.

That is why I built what I built. Because wanting things does not stop when you become a mother. And you should not have to wait until you have more time, more energy, or more bandwidth to start creating them. The approach just has to meet you where you actually are.

And that’s what we can do together ❤️

YOU CANT CHEAT THE UNIVERSE.

Your feelings and internal state are heard way before the words you speak.

Master your internal state, match your feelings to the life/experiences you desire to have…

…and that’s when the real change, the real transformation happens.

I go on maternity leave at the end of this month (whaaaaat?!), and I highly recommend booking your breathwork sessions in, so we can start calibrating your body to call in, receive and hold all that you desire!

Message me “Breathwork” for more details ❤️
