My Story
My dads heart attack at a young age pivoted my career to one with a strong mission and purpose to serve others on their health journey. What I wasn’t prepared for when starting this new career was seeing how lived experiences, generational trauma, social systems, and more impact one’s well-being.
Nor was I prepared to see how I was a better giver than receiver, human doer (vs. being), perfectionist, Miss Independent, catching everything going around, living overwhelmed, anxious, and experiencing chest pain, on the hot pursuit of chasing my next dream and doing everything it takes to make it happen.
When I heard the words ’emotions and memories store in the cellular structure of the body’ and ‘the nervous system is the home of intuition/body wisdom’, things began to reveal themselves.
How lived experiences, unresolved wounding, and BIG T and little t traumas can compromise health. No matter the outwardly self-care one does, how ‘healthy’ they eat, how much exercise or amount of sleep they get.
Embracing what the body’s sharing can shift into responding versus autopilot reacting mode. By healing at the body’s energy level and regulating the nervous system a person can experience joy, peace of mind, inner peace, and less pain, even in chaos surrounding them.
