This follower was so encouraging to me. It’s hard to not get in your head that the message you hope to share with your clients and followers in this space is just hitting a brick wall.

I see hustle and shameful posts go viral while these posts stay silent, and it makes me wonder, do people not believe they are allowed to slow down?

Even without being told I had to do everything under the sun growing up, it was the norm.

My nervous system finally said it was enough.

And although “doing it all” will always be a battle for a high achiever like myself, I now KNOW that rest is a NECESSITY.

That slowness is a luxury and true privilege.

You won’t hear me tell you to keep pushing in this space.

If you ever hear me actually tell you anything it will always be to slow down, tune in, and honor what your body needs.

In my experience, 99% of clients on my table desperately need to slow down, prioritize sleep and rest, hydrate, eat Whole Foods, BREATHE, and log OFF line.

This is my mission and passion.

Because I have been where you are. And my body said no.

You are allowed to rest.

It is in the rest, that healing begins. 🫶🏼

You’ve heard of muscles and bones—but fascia?

It’s the most overlooked yet most important tissue in your body.

Fascia is a full-body web of connective tissue that surrounds and supports everything inside you—muscles, organs, nerves, even blood vessels.

✨ It’s your largest sensory organ.

Fascia communicates with your brain at 750mph while nerves communicate at only 150mph.

Ever wonder how you dodged getting hit by that ball? Or how you caught yourself before you fell? It’s because of your fascia.

Which is why it’s responsible for:
🧠 Muscle memory
💃 Your sense of balance
🛡 How you brace for injury
😮‍💨 Emotional holding patterns in the body

The problem? When fascia gets tight, dehydrated, or restricted (from stress, trauma, injury, or even sitting too long), it starts to lock down your movement, flexibility, and even your energy.

And because it doesn’t show up on scans, most people go years treating symptoms instead of the source. (Think cortisone shots, epidurals, endless months of PT with no real change, and even surgery)

It’s time to start paying attention to your fascia.

Your pain might not be just in your muscles—why? Because the fascia is in the connective fabric that holds your muscles together.

📲 Check the slides to learn what fascia is, why it’s often ignored, and how to keep it healthy.

Seeing emotions released on the table will always amaze me.

I’ve witnessed this time and time again

And every time, it’s a reminder of how powerful the fascial system truly is.

In my own personal experiences, I’ve felt my body internalize deep emotions. Pain that felt too big for my brain to process.

And so…

It took root in my body. 👇🏼

Headaches

Nausea

Loss of appetite

Stomach cramps

Fatigue

Loss of vision

The list goes on…

Fascia has memory. The singular cells that make up fascia are THE structures that communicate with your brain and learn/grow and build out physical patterns and strength.

This is what we know as “muscle memory”.

It’s ALL because of the fascia.

In our newsletter today, we’re talking all things fascia and emotional storage - how this impacts your fascia, meridians, nervous system and more.

If you’re on our list, you should see it in your inbox, and if you’re not, drop a “me” in the comments and I’ll send you our link to subscribe.

Taking time away from socials the last almost 6 months has brought a lot of perspective and mindset shifts.

What do I want to add to this space?

Do I still want to add to this space?

IG is so loud. Filled with so many “I have the answer. Do this” and back handed statements towards other big influencers to sell their own products, etc etc.

This space has always been, for me, a space for healing, and to share with you the answer I found for myself that profoundly changed my life and my body.

I don’t often feel I need to even “sell it” because it sells itself once you’ve experienced its magic.

Fascial work is healing work. It is deeply impactful in ways I can’t describe because I’d otherwise be here all week sharing the countless success stories of my own and the clients I’ve had the privilege to help along the way.

Pregnancy always pulls me inward. To protect my space, my mind and my body.

Navigating HG (chronic vomiting) while also having a physical job is a tough balance, but I’m simultaneously grateful for it pulling me out of the trenches.

So… all to say, HELLO!

I’m here. I’m resurfacing. Gently.

And I have so much to share.

If you’d like to walk with me, learn more about fascia, how it benefits every single person on the planet, how it’s helps me in my pregnancy, and some little life things here and there, you’re in the right place.

My hope is to equip all my clients and followers, like you, to be able to live life on YOUR terms.

Because we’re not meant to be chained to a hopeless life of “this is just aging. I can’t do that anymore”.

This space is here to give you hope. Because we’re all need it in one way or another.

Talk soon,

To the mothers 🫶🏼

Whether today is a tidal wave of emotions, a joy filled day, a balancing act of loving the ones infront of you while grieving the ones in heaven, a reflection of your journey to becoming who you’ve longed to be, taking today to remember what you may have had or never got to have…

You are seen, lifted up, and celebrated today.

May today be a day that meets you right where you are. 🩵

Celebrating our savior’s resurrection this Easter and the promise we have in eternity.
Happy Easter! 🌷✝️

If you’ve been wondering where I’ve been the last couple months, I’ve been busy growing this precious baby #2. Spending most of my days with my head over the toilet with HG (chronic vomiting). Something I experienced with our Vienna as well. I did not talk much on the subject during my first pregnancy, but as I am still in it with this one, I will be sharing as I have the energy to. HG is something that should be talked about more, and I hope to bring light to it as best I can.

For now, we are just rejoicing over this baby and praying for some ease in symptoms soon. 🤎🥰

It’s easier than ever to get clouded by the noise and stimulation of the world and social media around us that we forget how simple things can really be.

As much as I strive for simplicity, I’m victim to the noise, too. We’re human. It’s hard not to get sucked in. To compare. To feel inferior. To question whether or not your body is really working FOR you…

But, it’s in those moments that my body reminds me in the loudest way that it’s for me.

It knows what I need. And it’s working for me.

There is always a reason for the way the body responds to stressors - physical, emotional, mental, spiritual.

Trust your body.

It is working FOR you. 🤎

Releasing emotions is not only regulating to the nervous system, it also aids in healthy fluid flow (blood and lymph) which is essential for optimal fascial health.

There is of course a time and place to express big emotions. I am not encouraging an angry lashing out to your spouse or children.

I am encouraging you to find a safe, quiet place to allow yourself time to feel, and release big emotions so that your body can continue its flow.

Graphic imagery warning:
Imagine if you had the urge to vomit, but you swallowed it instead of letting it out?

I know, a gross visual. But think about emotions… as they swell to the surface, and you keep pushing pushing pushing down…

What do you think happens?

Tension. Pain. Swelling.

Thats what happens.

Because emotions are energy. And energy is what creates flow in the body.

Our bodies are electric. We have a charge.

Think about a watering hose and how when there is a kink in the tubing, water can’t flow.

This is the same for fascia, and for emotions.

Because where there is energy (force, pressure, whatever you’d like to call it) there is flow.

Cause a kink, like unfelt emotions, and you begin building up tension and restrictions in the body.

We are all guilty of stuffing down emotions. It is uncomfortable to feel them. You are not broken for choosing not to feel… you are human and it often hurts to feel big emotions.

But, by getting them out, feeling them, your body can and will begin to heal.

That, I know.
