Recently, I noticed a subtle shift in my prayer life. Instead of asking God to come to me, by faith I moved toward Him—choosing to go to where God was, rather than asking Him to come to where I was.

It was a small change, but the shift was tangible. What I encountered wasn’t just an idea it was something I could actually feel.

The Greek word used for truth in the New Testament is aletheia—which means reality.
Not just accuracy. Not concepts. Reality itself. And when we move toward Him, we aren’t escaping reality—we’re finally entering it.

Next time you pray, notice what happens if—by faith—you move toward God, rather than asking Him to come to you.
The moment you step into His reality, notice what you experience: what you sense, what you physically feel, what you become aware of.

The mind has the capacity to override the truth to stay safe, stay composed, or stay connected. It can reframe, explain, minimize, or push through.

But the body knows the truth. And when we override that knowing, we ask the body to lie. That breaks trust within the system.

The cost isn’t paid by the body alone. It shows up in our relationships, our clarity, our choices, and our capacity to feel at home in ourselves.

Emotional integrity is choosing alignment over override—so the truth can actually do what it’s meant to do.

✨✨ Sophia Sessions are a place to practice this kind of alignment in real time. Our first session of the year is tomorrow January 2. Link in BIO ✨✨

The inability to receive rarely feels like an inability.
It’s a nervous system that learned
it was safer to cope than to ask.
How to receive:
• Let something be given without earning it
• Notice the urge to handle it alone
• Don’t rush to minimize or give back
• Stay present when it feels unfamiliar
• Practice letting need exist in connection
Receiving isn’t weakness.
It’s repair.
It’s care.
It’s love.
Receiving is how a nervous system learns
it no longer has to do everything alone.

Your nervous system is still waiting.
For the safety that never came.
For the moment that never completed.
For you—to stop ghosting your body.
When needs go unmet, the energy doesn’t vanish.
It gets stored as tension, longing, and ache.
Not a thought. Not a story. A felt experience.
The body holds what didn’t get to finish—
the cry never comforted,
the fear hidden,
the reach unmet.
You don’t have to think your way out.
You get to feel your way home.
That’s the heart of FULLCAPACITY—
a 6-week online school for your nervous system.
It’s where we stop ghosting our bodies and start listening, staying, soothing…
completing what never got to finish.

Doors close soon.

Just like a power surge can trip a breaker, your nervous system will shut things down wwhen it’s asked to carry more than it feels safe to hold. Not because you’re broken.
But because you’re wired for protection.

Power.
Joy.
Freedom.
Success.
Safety.
Visibility.
Desire.
If any of these have felt switched off or cut from power—it’s not because they’re gone.
It’s because your system flipped the breaker
to keep you safe.

FULLCAPACITY is about restoring the circuitry.
Not by force—but by building the capacity to hold
what you’ve always carried the potential for.

Time to flip the switch.
FULLCAPACITY begins 9/9/25.

If you’ve done the emotional, relational—even spiritual—work, but still find yourself stuck in the same patterns, reactions, or ceilings…This course was made for you.
Because if it’s not in your physiology, it’s not in your reality.

FULLCAPACITY is a live, 6-week nervous system school designed to help you:
⚡Understand what your nervous system is actually doing (and why it matters more than you think)
⚡Identify the state you’re living from—fight, flight, freeze, or fawn
Learn the difference between true regulation and survival strategies that only look calm
⚡Release incomplete stress responses and attachment wounds that keep you cycling in old patterns
⚡Build real capacity—not by trying harder, but by teaching your body something new

This is not self-help. It's nervous system discipleship. I’ll guide you through the exact pathway I use with clients—from Survivor to Discerner, Regulator, and Contender.
Not with a million techniques or breathwork trends, but with clear, grounded tools that actually work.

We begin Tuesday, September 9 at 7:30 PM CST
Live on Zoom (with replays if you can’t make it live)

Let’s build the kind of capacity that changes everything.

The FULLCAPACITY Assessment is now live—
a 5-minute nervous system check-in to help you recognize the state you’ve been living from:

Just surviving?
Learning to regulate?
Or stepping into the strength that comes from rest, alignment, and Presence?

This isn’t about pushing through.
It’s about coming home—
to your body, your story, your God-given capacity.

Every result points to a way forward.
Not more self-improvement.
Real transformation.

Good therapy isn’t just about learning new skills—it’s about uncovering what keeps you from using them. While you may gain tools to manage emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, lasting change happens when you also face the deeper, often subconscious fears, patterns, and resistances beneath the surface. True growth comes not only from acquiring skills, but from dismantling the internal barriers that keep you from putting them into practice.

I have a few spots open. If you’re interested DM me and let’s get to work.

I LOVE signs. And ...here's the
hard truth: Not every sign is sacred. Some are survival. Not every sign is a green light. Not every dream is direction. Not every word that feels prophetic is actually meant to move you.
Sometimes what we call a “sign from God” is actually a nervous system flare—a burst of urgency wrapped around unprocessed longing.

It feels spiritual. But it’s really the body saying:“I need out. I need rescue. I need to feel something different than this ache.”
So how can you tell the difference? Try this: A true sign brings peace even if it’s disruptive. A survival flare brings urgency—even if it looks spiritual.A true sign feels rooted. Like it can wait. A survival flare rushes. It demands now. A true sign aligns with your deeper becoming. A survival flare tries to escape where you are now.

Discernment isn’t just about prayer. It’s about presence.
It isn’t just spiritual. It’s also somatic.
The difference isn’t always clear at the moment—but your nervous system knows. Your spirit knows.

In FULLCAPACITY, we will practice this kind of discernment. So your choices flow from true peace—not performance, anxiety, or emotional noise.

It’s coming soon: Join the email list to be the first to get info and announcements.

FULL CAPACITY is coming. A live nervous system training for people who’ve outgrown coping—and are ready to build real capacity.

Your body knows the toll it’s taken:�The numbness. The reactivity. The constant managing of emotions, faith, and fatigue.�The moments you go quiet or pull away, even when you don’t mean to.�The sense that something’s missing—�but no matter how hard you try, you can’t reach it.

This isn’t just stress. It’s a sign your nervous system could use some training.And the truth is: you don’t need more willpower.
�You need capacity. 💪💪

- Physiologically, capacity means staying with what you feel—without shutting down, losing yourself, or reacting out of triggers.�- Relationally, it’s staying connected—even in conflict—while remaining rooted in your authentic self.�- Spiritually, it’s learning to feel God again—not just talk about Him.

This isn’t mindset work.�This is nervous system work for the soul.�Where science meets Spirit.�Where your body learns to feel safe again.�Where presence becomes a practice—no matter what life brings.

If you feel stagnant—emotionally, spiritually, physically—this is the work that will bring you back—and build the capacity to take you further.

✨ Enrollment opens soon. Spots will be limited for this 6-week guided experience with live teaching, somatic practice, and soul-level transformation.�
Go to the link in the comments for details�because your body is already telling you: it’s time.

When emotions rise, we usually focus on what we’re feeling: Sadness. Anxiety. Anger. Excitement.

But there’s another layer of wisdom we often miss: Where you feel it in your body. Every part of your body speaks a different emotional language. The location of a sensation can give you powerful clues about what your spirit, your subconscious, and even God might be trying to show you.

-Tight chest? Your heart center may be carrying grief, longing, or deep vulnerability.
-Knots in your stomach? Your gut instinct could be warning you, or your courage may feel under pressure.
-Lump in your throat? Unspoken truth or fear of being heard might be surfacing.
-Tension in your shoulders? You could be carrying burdens that aren’t yours to carry.
-Weakness in your legs? Your body might be hesitating at a threshold, caught between fear and forward movement.

According to Somatic Experiencing, the body doesn’t just store stress — it stores the memory of experience itself. Healing happens not just by “talking about” what happened, but by listening to the felt sense — the real-time sensations that arise in your body.

Your body doesn’t lie. It often knows what your mind is trying to avoid or explain away. When you learn to listen — not just to the emotion, but to the place it lives — you gain a whole new level of clarity.

Because the body doesn’t just store pain.
It stores prayers. Memories. Intuitions. Warnings. Invitations.

It tells the truth about what your heart needs, even when your mind is spinning.

The next time you feel a wave of emotion, don’t just ask:
“What am I feeling?”
Also ask:
“Where am I feeling it?”
“What might that part of me be trying to say?”

You’ll be surprised how much healing and insight can begin — just by listening.

Your body is not the problem.
It’s part of the pathway back to wholeness.
