Today I say goodbye to my 30s. Here are some random pictures of me, mostly in my late 30s and a rare photo of me at age 10 or 11 😆?!
What a decade it’s been, and what a life (or many lives) it has been.

In the past few years, I’ve poured my heart into creating Body Wisdom Sanctuary and learning to care for myself deeply—mind, body, and soul.

I’ve let go of what no longer serves, and held close what truly nourishes me. I’ve stopped waiting for others to validate my worth, and started showing up fully for myself.

I’m not chasing perfection anymore.
I’m practicing love.
Every day.
Starting with me.

This is what I want for others, too.

✨ If you’re ready to feel more at home in your body,
✨ to become a better friend to yourself,
✨ and to tend to your inner life with compassion and care—I’d love to support you.

My somatic coaching practice is open to those on a path of healing, embodiment, and becoming.
Let’s walk it together.

DM me to learn more. 💗

I came here to the Sacred Valley of Peru because of a vocal retreat, which I attended last year but wanted to repeat. But my body, after a period of overworking and hrs of being in different airports and planes, decided to give me a cold to slow me down, preventing me from joining the retreat. Since I have a thing for beautiful jewelry, and I didn’t want to just rest in my temporary casita, I decided to reach out to this beautiful human .pe, artist, mama of two children, to see if we can meet for a bit. We did and I’m reminded of her grace, her feminine style in her art, and her big heart which can easily be felt when you wear her art. I love supporting artists and people that you know put their heart & soul into their work. I wanted to share about her work here, in case I have any friends in NY or the US who would also be interested in supporting her. DM me or her please ❤️ 1. From tonight 2-4. Modeling to show her art 5. Her beautiful children in her cute little shop in Pisac, Cuzco.

Currently, I’m doing all of that for my inner little girl. After just a few months of daily practice, I feel profound love and compassion towards all versions of me; all the past versions that got locked up in the basement and ignored were finally released and are receiving the love and care they desperately needed. I’m shy to acknowledge it publicly, because I know I’ll be perceived as arrogant, egotistical, or even selfish. But the truth is I really adore myself. I love myself so much that I can honestly say that I’m my favorite person in the entire world. It’s taken years to be able to say and feel it deeply. It feels like I’m saying it and doing this “work” both for myself AND for all those that didn’t feel safe to love themselves, those that came before me that were born and forced into codependency, just to survive, just to receive a few bread crumbs of “love.” This inner work means everything to me. I can’t be fully alive in my humanness, in my soul essence, in my body, if I ignored this work that I believe needs to be done, for the betterment of humanity. Why should we do this work? Because “love” will always be conditional, transactional, empty. That’s not real love. I’m interested in REAL LOVE, the love that brings peace, deep connection to self, understanding, compassion, the love that embraces authenticity, freedom, and growth. What else is more important?

What is real love to you?

Part 1: Love. I’ve been cultivating the skills of listening, caring, and being with all parts of myself. Learning to be my own loving family; the one I secretly wished for but never got. And I’ve had the privilege of time to reflect on what love means to me. Since I’m human and living in a relational world, I’ll share what love looks like in relationships (it applies to self, family, friends, romantic partners). There’s the basics of showing affection; expressing gratitude, hugs; communicating with honesty, feeling safe to share thoughts and feelings, reassurance of your love (words of affirmation & physical affection), encouragement; using words to encourage the other to be their best self. There’s also the practice of emotional support, understanding, acceptance, loving the whole person, flaws and all, wanting growth and what’s best for them, and giving the other freedom to be themselves however feels most authentic to them.
