POV: you, this Saturday 🕯️

mat. music. breath. clarity.

Imagine this:
You’re lying on a mat in a candlelit room.
High-vibe music surrounds you.

And the stress you’ve been carrying for months?

It finally whooshes out of your body.

You feel clear, grounded, you.

That’s the experience we’ve crafted at Metamorphosis—a 2-hour in-person mini retreat happening this Saturday, June 21st in Redwood City.

🌀 Grounding meditation
🎴 Oracle card clarity
🫁 Breathwork with feel-good movement
🌌 Shamanic visualization

turn stress into strength 💪🌀

inhale... exhale… something deeper.

The first time I tried conscious connected breathwork, I nearly bailed halfway through.

My body was buzzing, my mouth was dry, and my brain was yelling “ABORT MISSION.”

And then… it happened.

Tears flowed. My body softened.

I felt more peace and clarity than I’d had in years.

What if our ability to feel good… is directly tied to our capacity to sit with discomfort?

That’s what we’ll be exploring at Metamorphosis, my signature in-person (or virtual!) breathwork mini-retreat on June 21.

✨ Reset your nervous system
✨ Expand your capacity to feel good—without bypassing the hard stuff
✨ Reconnect with your calm, present, powerful self

Distraction action? 🧠💨

Lately, I’ve been pulled in a million different directions—research rabbit holes, scattered ideas, and a general sense of “what am I even doing?”

But when I pause and breathe (literally), I remember a truth I come back to again and again:

“What if where we experience resistance is the thing that'll make the biggest difference?”

For me, resistance often shows up when the next step feels scary or important. It’s a nervous system response––not laziness or lack of motivation.

That’s why I turn to breathwork. It’s my go-to practice for calming my system and reconnecting with what actually matters.

✨ If you’re in the SF Bay Area, come join me for Metamorphosis, my in-person breathwork ceremony on Saturday, June 21 from 3–5pm in downtown Redwood City.

✨ Not local? You can grab the virtual version and use code SUMMERSOLSTICE25 for a discount through June 21.

Let’s breathe through the resistance and reconnect with your next aligned step. 💛

What if you already knew your success was inevitable?

✨ That your dream home, your novel, your career pivot, or business growth was already unfolding perfectly––and all you had to do was take the next right step?

This question has been sitting with me all week.

In a convo with my coach Tara-Nicholle Kirke, she said something that stopped me in my tracks:

"Dispersion is like the grown up version of procrastination." 🤯

Whew. That called me out in the best way.

Before streamlining my business in December, I was acting on so many shiny ideas that none of them had time to truly grow. It felt like momentum, but really? It was delay.

Now? I focus on just one aligned step at a time. I write the other ideas down, but I don’t chase them all.

🌱 That’s the kind of peaceful, focused strategy we practice inside The Compass Club.
And if you're ready to build confidence and momentum on your dream––I’d love to invite you in.

DM me “I’m in” for details.

big dreams or baby steps? ⚖️

Ever heard that saying, “If your dreams don’t scare you, they’re not big enough?”

Spoiler: I’m not a fan. 😅

That advice implies if you’re not scared, you’re not dreaming right––and it feeds hustle culture’s myth that adrenaline is required to get anything done.

But adrenaline-fueled goals tend to backfire... fast. They might help you move quickly at first, but they often lead straight to burnout 😩.

These days, I’d rather surrender my ego’s timeline than ditch my wellbeing. 🙌

Sure, your dream might feel scary––but that’s usually your nervous system reacting to the unfamiliar, not actual danger.

Inside The Compass Club, I encourage folks to shift from “Is my dream BIG enough?” to “What’s my next doable step?” 👣

Let go of fear-based goal setting. Peaceful progress is still progress. 🕊️

✨ You in?

current side quest 🕵️‍♀️🦶

I’m literally learning how to walk again.

This month’s side quest? Realigning my whole body—starting with my toes. 😳👣

I’ve been working with a structural integration specialist to release old fascia tension (plus rocking some very chic silicone toe spacers 😅) to correct a pattern I didn’t even know was happening.

Turns out one of my hips has been rotated for years (shoutout to my old Muay Thai era 👊🏽), and my body just adjusted around it. It felt normal… until it didn’t.
That’s how patterns work, right? They become so familiar, we forget they’re optional.

It reminded me of a client who said yes to every single meeting thinking that’s what a “good team player” does. But all it did was burn her out and keep her from hitting the actual goals her company cared about. 🤯

So now I’m asking:
What old pattern are you ready to release?

Drop a comment with “I RELEASE IT” if you’re ready to let that 💩 goooo.

✨ And if you’re done pushing through and ready for peaceful progress on your goals, join me inside The Compass Club. Doors are open.

cave diving & goal setting 🤿

When he turned off the headlamp, I couldn’t even see my hand in front of my face. All

I had to ground me was the feel of water and sandy rock. I breathed in the velvety quiet.

A few days ago, I swam (and crawled 😅) through one of the cenotes in Mexico. Our guide Manny told us the story of diver Robbie Schmittner—who knew that two massive cave systems in Tulum must be connected.

Like so many of us with secret dreams—shifting careers, launching a side hustle, finally starting that project—he trusted the pull.

In 2018, he brought in a team and dove from both ends. Eventually, their lights met in the dark.

But the path was too narrow.

So Schmittner passed off his oxygen tank and carved through with a hammer—holding his breath.

He made it. But only because he had support.

The same goes for us. Secret dreams need teammates, tools, and trust.

That’s why I built The Compass Club—a space for your dream to breathe, grow, and come to life with clarity and support.

Have you ever been peacefully making progress on your goals...

…and then your doom scroll habit kicks in and sidelines you? 🐲
Or that old pattern of staying quiet in meetings creeps back in? 😬

Been there. 😅

Last week, I was welcoming new members into The Compass Club and sending out promo emails when…

⚡️ One of my email automations glitched.

It accidentally messaged brand new subscribers saying they hadn’t opened anything in months.

🙃 Tech gremlins at it again.

I spent the afternoon troubleshooting—aka not doing what I’d planned to do.

But that’s the thing—unseen labor is part of our growth.
✨ The detours, the pivots, the oops.

Behind every promotion, biz launch, or novel published…
there are hundreds of messy steps we rarely talk about.

So here’s your gentle reminder:
➡️ The side quests count.
➡️ The “failures” that teach you something? Also wins.
➡️ The learning? It’s all part of it.

What’s one glitch or bump you can celebrate this week?

💌 DM me and tell me. Or just take a quiet moment to reflect.

P.S. Want a clear path to accomplish your goals—even with side quests?
Join us in The Compass Club. You’re so invited.

"I feel like I'm falling behind..."

I hear this all the time—especially in late spring.

But here's the truth: this is an old story, and it only exists when we fall into the comparison trap. 😵‍💫

Let’s bust that myth with 4 key questions:
1️⃣ What does “falling behind” actually look like or mean?
2️⃣ In relation to what or whom are you “behind”?
3️⃣ When did you decide you were falling behind—and why?
4️⃣ Why does it matter? What’s the real impact?

Now, take a breath.

What if we gave ourselves permission to be where we are with compassion—not judgment?

💡From a nervous system perspective, we’d feel more relaxed… and as a result, probably get more done and do it better.

As someone said after attending my recent workshop “5 Steps to Overcome To-Do List Overwhelm”:
“I left feeling like I could finally breathe again—like I don’t have to prove my productivity to be worthy.”

✨ Friendly reminder: You're not a robot. Your worth isn’t tied to how fast you move or how much you get done.

You’re beautifully human—and you deserve space to grow in your own time. 🌱
Which question hit home for you? 1, 2, 3, or 4?

P.S. The Compass Club is still open for new members (even if the bonus 1:1s are spoken for). Peaceful, human progress is the vibe.

Bad memberships 🚫

Here’s what I’m not doing inside The Compass Club.

Over the years, I’ve joined so many courses + memberships and left them early. Not because the content was bad—but because I:
❌ Felt like a number, not a valued member
❌ Got overwhelmed by content overload
❌ Felt like a “bad student” for falling behind
❌ Never felt connected to the instructor
❌ Realized it wasn’t designed for how I learn

So I took notes. As a coach and a curriculum designer with a Masters from UChicago.
And I created a totally different experience.

After 7 years of testing formats, coaching, and client feedback, I distilled it all into one beautiful space: The Compass Club 🧭

Inside, members:
✨ Accomplish their #1 life goal in 6 months or less—without overwhelm
✨ Feel supported & seen (yes, by me personally)
✨ Learn at their own pace, in their own way
✨ Actually enjoy the process of peaceful progress

My secret dream came true 😍

In 2017, I was leading a women’s book club at my EdTech job. The prompt? Write down a secret dream and share it.

I wrote two… but only shared one:
✔ Publish a novel
❌ Become a yoga teacher

That second one felt too off-brand to say out loud—I was more likely dripping sweat in a HIIT class than sitting criss-cross on a yoga mat.

But that night, I got an email from a studio: enrollment for teacher training was open.

And just like that, I knew I had to say yes.

6 months later, I taught my first paid class… to coworkers during lunch. That whisper led to starting my business 💫

Recently, a former VP told me that watching me teach back then inspired her to follow a dream too—she just launched her career coaching biz this year 😭

Your secret dream matters. For you. For others.

✨ Need a sign? This is it.

DM me “I’m in” to bring yours to life inside The Compass Club.
