If you’re carrying stress in your shoulders, tension in your jaw, or the weight of the world in your mind — this is your invitation to soften, receive and reset.

🌿 45 minutes of pure nervous-system calm
🌿 Perfect for burnout, stress, headaches & emotional overload

You get ONE life! Your soul didn’t come here to play small.

You came here to LIVE!

This isn’t a new year - new me post. This is what I am all about each and every day and year. I support women to:

💫Reconnect with who they really are
💫Shake off the conditioning and layers of trauma hiding who they really are
💫Step into their self-worth and renewed confidence
💫Shut down self-limiting beliefs
💫Live a conscious life, one they own, one where they’re no longer a passenger, one where they’re the driver!
💫One where they’re able to freely and confidently express their true self in what ever way they choose
💫One where they finally love and prioritise themselves

But here’s the thing:

❗️You can’t heal in the environment that broke you
❗️There’ll be no changes until we regulate your nervous system
❗️You need to commit to change
❗️Change is uncomfortable but beautiful
❗️You are the only person that can do this. (As your coach I will be your greatest cheer leader and support 👏🏻)

Has life has got you living small, tired, anxious, overwhelmed or disconnected from your true self?

It’s never too late to start living.
It’s your time now.

✨ The EmpowerHER Programme is a unique experience where we heal the nervous system, reclaim the soul,
restore the woman.

Why work with me?

I’ve walked through trauma.
Through life-threatening illness.
Through loss.
Through nervous-system collapse.
Through fear, survival mode, and the slow rebuilding of self.

I know what it feels like to look “fine” on the outside while your inner world is exhausted, anxious, overwhelmed or disconnected.

I know what it takes to heal.

EmpowerHER was created from my own healing journey — and from years of supporting women who were quietly surviving instead of truly living.

I bring together:
✨ trauma-informed coaching
✨ nervous system regulation
✨ breathwork & somatic healing
✨ deep emotional and subconscious release
✨ intuitive, heart-led guidance

This isn’t surface-level mindset work.
This is root-level healing.

You get ONE life! Are you ready to start living yours? DM me ONE LIFE to learn more.

A client left me this feedback this week 💚 I’m always grateful when my clients leave me kind words but this one stuck with me…

That floaty, light, dreamy feeling isn’t random — and it isn’t “just relaxation.”

It’s your nervous system switching state ❣️

When you live in stress, your body sits in sympathetic mode — fight, flight, brace, protect.

Blood is redirected to survival muscles, breathing is shallow, the jaw clenches, the fascia tightens and your tissues become guarded.

During your massage, something powerful happens:

• Your vagus nerve is activated
• Your parasympathetic “rest & digest” system comes online
• Stress hormones like cortisol reduce
• Breathing deepens
• Blood flow returns to the skin, organs & connective tissue
• Muscle spindles (your tension sensors) down-regulate
• Fascia begins to soften and hydrate
• And your brain shifts into a slower, calmer state

This neurological downshift is what creates that floaty, spacious, light, safe, dreamy feeling.

Your body is no longer bracing.
It’s no longer guarding.
It’s receiving.

This is why it’s rarely about the pressure I apply. A calm nervous system allows muscles to let go from the inside out.

Massage becomes effective because your system feels safe enough to soften.

And this is also why you might experience me gently guiding you through specific breathing techniques during your treatment.

Your breath is one of the fastest ways to speak directly to your nervous system.

This isn’t “just a massage.”
This is mind-body healing in action.

💚

We do not experience the world as it is.
We experience it as our nervous system remembers it.

Our childhood experiences, emotional safety (or lack of it), the way love, conflict, praise, abandonment, criticism or unpredictability showed up — all quietly shape the lens through which we see people, situations and even ourselves.

Two people can live the same moment.
One feels safe.
One feels threatened.
Not because of what’s happening — but because of what’s stored.

If you grew up having to be “good”, quiet, responsible, emotionally aware, invisible, perfect, or hyper-independent… your body learned survival patterns long before your mind could question them.

So now:
• You may read rejection where there is none
• You may feel responsible for everyone
• You may over-give, over-think, over-try
• You may feel unsafe even when life is calm

Not because you are broken — but because your nervous system adapted to keep you safe once upon a time.

✨ This is where EmpowerHER begins.
Not with “fixing” you — but with gently unravelling what you were taught to become in order to survive… so you can finally meet who you really are underneath it all.

Because healing isn’t about changing who you are.
It’s about releasing what you were never meant to carry.

And when the lens changes…
your world changes too.

If you’re ready to change the lens you’re looking through DM me today.

ARE YOU READY? 🌕🐺

Tonight’s Wolf Moon in Cancer is not gentle by accident. She arrives as our first full moon of 2026 to ask one simple, life-changing question:

Are you ready to stop carrying what was never meant to be yours?

This moon is about coming home to yourself.

Your body.
Your nervous system.
Your worth.

She shines a light on the emotional weight, old roles, trauma patterns, people-pleasing, burnout and survival strategies that may have kept you safe once — but are quietly draining you now.

Cancer is the guardian of the inner world. She doesn’t ask you to push harder. She asks you to soften, feel, clear, and finally choose yourself.

This is the moon of:
• emotional release
• nervous system recalibration
• reclaiming your needs
• returning to your truth
• setting new standards for how you are treated — by others and by yourself

And this is exactly the energy that birthed EmpowerHER.

EmpowerHER is not “more self-care.”
It is a deep nervous-system, trauma-informed, mind-body healing journey for women who are done surviving…
and are ready to come home to who they truly are.

So I’ll ask you the same question this moon is asking:

✨ Are you ready to stop living in coping mode?
✨ Are you ready to feel safe in your body again?
✨ Are you ready to release what’s heavy, outdated and no longer aligned?
✨ Are you ready to step into your worth — fully, calmly, confidently?

EmpowerHER 2026 is now open.
This is your invitation to begin the year in alignment, truth, softness and strength — not burnout, pressure and survival.

You are not here to carry it all.
You are here to rise in your fullness.

🌕🐺
Are you ready? DM ‘I’m ready’ to learn more.

As this year draws to a close, I’ve found myself quietly reflecting… and honestly — my heart is full.

This year has stretched me, grown me, softened me and strengthened me in equal measure. And it has reminded me exactly why Sage Therapies & Coaching exists.

✨ This year I’ve…

• Completed over 400 hours of breathwork training and certification — bringing deeper nervous-system healing into everything I offer. This qualification has changed my own life and health in so many ways! I can’t wait to see it change yours too!

• Reached 416 five-star reviews — still blows my mind that so many of you have taken the time to share your experiences and be so kind and generous

• Co-created a beautiful Healing & Transformation Retreat at Ouseburn Farm with Kate from and Dr. Kelly Rose from .kelly.nourish

• Had my work on Intergenerational Trauma published in Coaching Perspectives magazine.

• Lost two stone and made real, lasting changes to my own health — choosing to walk the walk, not just talk the talk

• Welcomed the wonderful Laura into Sage Therapies, bringing her magic massage hands and beautiful energy to our space

• Supported so many women through EmpowerHER, helping to untangle trauma, rebuild confidence, regulate nervous systems and create real change — ripples that extend far beyond the therapy room

• Held space for hundreds of your stories — your healing journeys, your challenges, your breakthroughs, your bravery

And then there’s the messages that quietly land in my inbox that remind me why I do this:

“Sam has genuinely changed my life.”

“I feel calmer, stronger, more confident and finally like myself again.”

“You created a space where I felt safe enough to heal.”

“I’ve reconnected with parts of me I thought were lost forever.”

These words never get taken lightly. They are deeply humbling.

Thank you for trusting me with your healing.

Thank you for supporting my small business.

Thank you for walking this journey with me.

Here’s to softer nervous systems, braver hearts, deeper healing and even more transformation in the year ahead 🤍✨

🎄 Things to consider this Christmas (from a therapist who sees what the body’s doing…)

• If your jaw is tight before you’ve even wrapped a present… That’s not festive spirit — that’s pressure.

• If rest feels uncomfortable, not indulgent…Your nervous system has been on duty all year.

• If your shoulders rise every time you think about family gatherings…Your body remembers more than your polite smile does.

• If you’re breath-holding your way through December…You’re not failing Christmas — Christmas might be asking too much.

• If your digestion goes rogue this time of year…Stress eats before you do.

• If you’re exhausted by “being fine”…
Maybe this is the year you stop performing wellness.

• If slowing down feels selfish…That belief didn’t come from your body.

• If stillness feels louder than the chaos…There’s something there worth listening to.

• If your feet are aching, dry, tense or tender…They’ve been carrying more than shopping bags.

• And if this post made you laugh and wince slightly…Your nervous system might be asking for care, not another commitment.

⸻

This Christmas doesn’t need a new you.

It needs a softer one.
A more regulated one.
A more honest one.

Save this.

Revisit it between the mince pies and the boundaries 😌🎄
