Sometimes, we lose heart...
It might appear we have our shit together on paper
But inside, our souls are begging for a change...
This soul cry might take the form of depression, apathy, anxiety
It might show up physically - migraines, fatigue...
This is our bodies and our minds asking us to WAKE UP
This is the alarm bell of our souls asking us to be fully alive
This is our call to start listening to our hearts
To follow the breadcrumbs of what lights us up
So we move towards what is life affirming
We remember how to hear our hearts
We pay attention to what sparks our aliveness
We find the courage and gumption to move in that direction...

About
The work we do is shift from the dominant paradigm of burnout, disconnection, self-loathing, and endless not-enoughness to a life-affirming paradigm that is loving, compassionate, curious, creative, and abundant.
This is not about your mindset, affirmations, visualizations, etc. This is about working with the wisdom of your body, heart, soul, and mind - working with the medicine life is bringing you right now - for the transformation you are ready for now.
And, it’s not always a walk in the park. It takes a willingness to really look at yourself. To see the ways that life is reflecting your shadows, conditioning, ego hooks, etc. Bringing conscious awareness to these places is how we liberate them.
I offer this because it is the path I have walked. Over the past 13 years, I went from corporate, to MBA, to yoga teacher, to non-profit manager, to entrepreneur, to guide. With each rebirth, a willingness to die to who I thought I was - layers of ego masks and conditioning sloughing off like dead skin.
I’ve navigated the depths of depression, anxiety, partnership separation, betrayal, failure. And I’ve tasted the fruits of bliss, healing, liberation, intimacy, and sovereignty.
I have not arrived anywhere. I am also a work in progress. But I may have walked through the initiation you are stepping through and can light the way. My lived experience - the practical and soul level - is here in service to your heart. To your path. To your greatness. To our collective greatness. To that which is life-affirming.
