Healing is meant to be part of your journey- not the whole map. 🗺️
It's not meant to consume our every thought, moment, or become your identity. Yes, healing does take intention- but it should make time for joy, for rest, and stillness.

🌱You’re allowed to live while you heal.
🌱You’re allowed to laugh while you grieve.
🌱You’re allowed to grow without constantly looking for what’s broken.

What is one thing outside of your healing journey that is bringing you joy this week?✨

Nature isn't rigid- it is rooted and it sways. Our bodies are the same. Just as nature bends and flows- we connect to the natural side-to-side movement (to us, more specifically known as bilateral movement). By rocking, shifting or looking side to side we reconnect to our body's natural rhythm of peace. When we allow ourselves to bend and flow, we flourish with ease.

You get to choose new patterns— ones built on safety, not fear.

If you're ready to shift out of survival mode and into something more supportive, I'm here to walk with you.

I am SO excited to be teaming up with to bring you this program that is rooted in family nervous system healing! Through this 12 week series, we will take a journey to understand the nervous system, factors that impact both adult and children’s nervous systems, and strategies to implement in your own home that promote healing and regulation for the whole family.

Sessions will all be completed virtually, with a combination of pre recorded, and live zoom calls. Additionally, participants will have access to a private community board to share their wins, and struggles, with both cohosts present on community boards to provide feedback or suggestions.

This is something you don’t want to miss! Scan the QR code for registration details!

Soaking up this sunshine!☀️🪴

Sometimes the best reset isn’t far away- it’s a step outside! Whether it’s answering emails on the porch or journaling in the sun, even the smallest shift makes the biggest difference to our mental state.

And every time you choose to heal, even in the smallest ways, you shift everything. What are you doing to shift your mindset today?

Reparenting isn't about doing it perfect- it's about showing up for yourself with the same care you give your kids. Embrace those small moments without guilt. Taking care of you is so important.

It’s all connected! How are you choosing to fuel your mind and body? 🧠🥗

Feeling stressed? Looking to food as a way to recover? What you eat plays a big role in how you feel.🥑🥦🥜

Choosing foods rich in magnesium, healthy fats, and antioxidants can help calm your nervous system and balance your mood. Vice versa, choosing healthy habits that we enjoy will encourage us to formulate positive growth in our wellness journey.

🌿 Healing childhood developmental trauma takes time, safety, and spaces where you don’t have to explain why the “little things” still hurt.

That’s why I created Roots & Repair — a support group for those exploring how early emotional wounds still show up in adult life. We’re beginning our journey with themes from the book Mother Hunger by Kelly McDaniel — not as a book club, but as a guide for deeper conversation and connection. There’s no pressure to read at a certain pace or even read the book at all. This is about shared experience, gentle reflection, and building safety together.

If you’ve felt alone in your healing… you don’t have to be anymore. 💬

Inhale calm... exhale that email you've been avoiding 😵‍💫

Avoiding your to-do list? It's not procrastination, it's your nervous system under pressure. When we're overwhelmed even the small tasks can feel huge. Deep breaths. Go send that email, grab some lunch, and come back to your work after a moment away. Breathwork can help regulate our stress while bringing our brain AND body back online so those tasks feel doable again.💨✨

A moment to reconnect. It’s in these small moments that you reconnect—with your body, your breath, your calm. You deserve this. You need this.
Take a moment. Breathe. You’re doing enough. 💛

This is what we work on in every session: not just coping, but repatterining the body to trust its own ability to come back home.✨ Your body already knows the way. We just help it remember.
