I do not want to be remembered as a woman who was always exhausted. I do not want to be remembered as a woman who was always stressed, always busy, always rushing, always holding herself together and pushing through.

I would like to be remembered as a relaxed woman, a compassionate woman, a curious, joyful, pleasure-loving woman. A woman who works hard and rests deeply, who loves fiercely and lives peacefully.

A woman who knows her worth and her power, who accepts her imperfections and her vulnerabilities, who embraces her limitations and her possibilities.

A woman who laughs and cries and aches and loves and is enchanted by the mess and magic and mundaneness of this beautiful, shimmering life.

Most of my life I struggled in relationships. I was a chameleon and knew how to behave to fit in anywhere.

I had a great social life and was always in a relationship. It all looked great on the outside but on the inside I felt resentful, angry lonely and disconnected from myself and others.

I was sure that the problem was my current partner, or being in the wrong job or the wrong city, country.

Eventually I realised that I was the common denominator in all these unhappy experiences and started many years of coaching and talk therapy. This really helped me understand why I felt this way and things did get a little better.

Even though I understood WHY it was hard to express my upset or ask for what I needed in my relationships, it still didn’t help me change my withholding behaviour.

Somatic Therapy was the missing piece for me. I learned how my body and nervous system carried messages from the past that kept me from getting the love and intimacy I wanted.

Updating my nervous system to match my altered mindset was a game changer.

I learned to listen to my body, trust my intuition and communicate from my heart. I became less reactive and more responsive to what was happening around me.

My relationships became a place for me to grow and experience deeper connection.

I finally had permission to feel free to be ME!!!

It’s my passion to share what I have learned over the last 35 years and support people to feel free in life and love.

If you want to learn more please join me and my dear friend Armand Botha for this upcoming workshop.

Does this ever happen to you?
You know it’s time to have a difficult conversation with your partner. ❤️

In your mind you have rehearsed a thousand times exactly what to say. Then when the moment comes you feel like a deer in headlights and can’t get your words out.

It feels so frustrating because you’re confident at work and with your friends yet in your romantic relationship that all seems to disappear.

Even though you know better, in these difficult situations you become a nice, people pleasing, “don’t rock the boat” kind of person. Although your partner walks away seemingly ok you feel awful inside and there is a constant tightness in your jaw and tension in your throat.

Maybe you are wondering why am I so worried about keeping them happy? It’s so exhausting. Why can’t I just say what I want to say?

At the same time you don’t want to be considered selfish or difficult. It feels like a no win situation. So you keep things light, stay smiling and practice more positive affirmations and meditations. But things stay pretty much the same.

You want to be honest and free to express your feelings, but somewhere deep down inside you feel terrified of rejection and being abandoned again.

At the same time there is a longing for a deeper connection with yourself and your partner and the possibility of a more intimate relationship. It feels like being stuck between a rock and hard place.

Can you relate to this?

Win a FREE one hour virtual private session with me! 🏆

To celebrate YOU end thank for you being a member of my community, I’m offering a contest to win a completely FREE one hour

Somatic Solutions for Dating and Relating session. 💖

In this 60 minutes together, we'll look at your current dating and/or relationship struggles and how a body oriented approach can give you new insights and understanding of your attraction blueprint.

My area of expertise is using embodiment and somatic tools to help uncover the blocks that keep you from having the relationship you want. We can then look at how an embodied approach can shift your experience of dating and relating.

Only one person can be the winner - and it could be you!

My only ask is that you fill out a short survey (just a few multiple choice questions - less than 5 minutes) and that will give you an entry into the draw.

We’ll draw a random number from the respondents - and hope YOURS is the lucky one.

Link is in the comments below.

Remember you don’t get an entry unless you click the link above.

👉The contest ends Friday April 26th though, so don't delay in filling out this short survey.

Thanks for your participation!
