Unfiltered!! The wellness and spiritual community is very interesting. But I guess that’s in every community. One thing I’ve never understood is the passive-aggressive behavior. If you can talk behind someone’s back, you should have the backbone to say it to that person’s face. I don’t entertain it—and I won’t entertain it. Take some emotional intelligence classes and learn how to have hard conversations instead of gaslighting people. I’ve never understood it, and I never will. Anyone else out there! I just don’t have the patience for it, especially at this age.

When the mission becomes bigger than you… you rise.

Tomorrow, clinical trials begin. 2026 opens with meetings alongside medical professionals and physics scientists from across the nation. And in this moment, I’m realizing something deeply important:

When the mission grows beyond what you ever imagined, your non-negotiables become everything.

I’ve learned this through trial and error—over and over again. If you don’t take care of yourself first, you cannot hold the space required for the work, the people, the community, or the vision.

So this is mine:
• The gym
• Meditation
• Journaling
• Sound—always sound
• Sleep (DND at 8:30, bed by 9, up by 4–4:30)

Non-negotiable.

I’m not perfect. I’m still learning. Still growing. Always. But I’ve built the systems. I’m building the team. I’ve received the feedback—and I’m grateful.

Today, I choose gratitude.
I choose presence.
I choose to show up for myself so I can show up fully for what’s coming.

Three years later… I fu***ng made it here.
I don’t even know what ā€œhereā€ fully looks like yet—but I’m here. And I’m showing up at levels I never thought possible.

And as a mom, this looks different.

Showing up for the mission means first showing up for myself, then my family, my partner, and my home. That foundation comes before everything else. When the home isn’t taken care of, nothing else works the way it should.

I’ve had to accept that this season requires recalibration. I’m used to functioning at levels most people can’t—or shouldn’t—try to keep up with. And that’s okay. That pace has worked for me in certain chapters, but this one asked for balance, boundaries, and structure.

Learning how to hold work, life, and family at the same time has been hard. Really hard.
But it is doable when you put the right systems, support, and non-negotiables in place.

Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential.
Because when you are regulated, rested, and resourced, everything else aligns.

This is what it looks like for me now.
And it’s working. šŸ¤

Last week, I had the privilege of assisting my incredible friend during a Breathwork and Shamanic Drumming session at a rehab facility. Steph reached out needing support, and I knew immediately I was meant to be there.

The facility is tucked away in the mountains, and many of the clients come from out of state—people from all over the country. These are men and women who serve as police officers, EMTs, firefighters, and veterans, many of whom are navigating substance abuse, PTSD, and everything in between. These professionals hold a very special place in my heart.

Steph guided them through a powerful breathwork journey while I drummed continuously for 45 minutes. The energy in the room was undeniable. It was raw, emotional, and deeply moving.

The truth is—this could happen to any one of us. Life events, seasons, trauma, accidents… no one is immune. If you’re struggling, please reach out to your support system. Reach out to us. You don’t have to do it alone.

Thank you, Steph, for trusting me and allowing me to hold space with you. šŸ¤ .__.s

As I look back on my fitness journey, this was right before I became pregnant with the twins. These were the days I traveled the world to run—The Great Wall of China, Paris—always searching for the hardest challenges. I was constantly chasing the next adventurous run, triathlon, or snowshoe race. I would go out and run 17 miles for fun (crazy right) on any given day, then hit a yoga class and boxing afterward. It’s hard to believe I was that strong.

I feel like having my twins took a lot out of my body. An emergency C-section, followed by months with my twins in the NICU, truly changed my life. My perspective shifted from performance to deep gratitude—what an incredible body I have to be able to carry and bring my babies into the world. Then having my singleton was so much easier in comparison. Our bodies are wild!

Instead of knocking myself down, I’ve learned to meet myself with love and compassion.

Now, I’m back on my fitness journey and fully committed again—and honestly, I don’t even know how I see my future self yet. Healthy. Happy. Strong. Maybe I’ll sign up for a triathlon just to have a goal. While I would love to regain that level of endurance, what I truly seek is a healthy body, a healthy mind, and healthy emotions.

Down another five pounds. Working on building that muscle.

Now I do these poses at home with all three girls and they think it is so much fun. Building that core back up is a whole other level!

Anyone else out there feel this? šŸ’›

2025 has honestly been a sh*tshow of a year šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø (and I feel like we all deserve credit back for surviving it).

But with all seriousness… this year has also brought me back to something that deeply matters to me: volunteering and community.

I’ve found myself reconnecting with United Way and the American Heart Association, surrounding myself with positive, uplifting women, and being reminded just how lucky I am to have the girlfriends I do. šŸ’• The right people truly change everything.

I was recently nominated for Woman of Impact with the American Heart Association, and that means more to me than I can put into words. Volunteer work was once such a huge part of my life—especially after my dad passed away.

My dad died from congestive heart failure, something we didn’t even know he had. He needed a heart transplant but never made it there. After a massive heart attack, he underwent a seven-bypass heart surgery, and he didn’t pull through. We spent two months in the hospital, fighting for every chance, every hope, every possible option to save his life. šŸ’”

Because of that, my work has always been dedicated to raising awareness for heart disease—one of the silent killers. My mom also lives with heart conditions, and my little one has to be monitored a couple of times a year to make sure her heart is okay. This cause is deeply personal.

Being nominated feels like coming full circle. Somewhere along the way, I stepped away from volunteering—and I’m not even sure why. But getting back into advocacy, awareness, and fundraising for those who need it most feels incredibly healing and grounding.

I’m so grateful. In a world that can easily take the best out of you, I’m choosing gratitude. With light comes dark—but within those dark moments are hidden blessings, if we’re willing to see them. ✨

Here’s to community, purpose, and finding our way back to what truly matters. ā¤ļø

My 7-year-old twins and I celebrated the Fall Equinox by attending Natalie’s sound immersion class. We love receiving from Natalie.

My girls have been experiencing sound immersion since the womb. They begin the class in a Beta brainwave state and naturally drop into Theta and Delta waves.

It’s relaxing and calming for us all! Photo captured by Auntie Steph!

I would like to express my gratitude. I must admit that I haven’t had the bandwidth to keep up with a lot of social media lately, as my focus has been entirely on my family, work and personal growth.

I’m thrilled to announce that I have successfully graduated from year two of the innovation program. Each step has been a journey of learning, growth, and discovery, and I’m excited to share that I am now moving forward to year three, where I will be delving into complementary and integrative health.

Throughout this journey, I’ve been told many times that it takes a special kind of person to tackle the challenges associated with my project. And while I am humbled by these words, I believe that anyone with the right passion, dedication, and support can achieve remarkable things.

Year three presents new challenges and opportunities, and I’m eager to embrace them. My focus will be on integrating new health practices and innovations that can benefit our community. I am committed to exploring and implementing solutions that not only address current health issues but also promote overall well-being and preventive care.

I look forward to collaborating with my colleagues and leveraging our collective expertise to drive meaningful change. Together, we can pioneer advancements that truly make a difference and inspire others in the field.

Thank you for your continued support, and I am excited to embark on this next chapter!
