When I discovered this formula, I felt myself crying out 'why did no one tell me this?!’
My Story From Shame to Empowerment
When I began to explore my inner landscape in 2012, I discovered I had built impenetrable amour around to try and stop me feeling the shame and pain I’d been carrying around all my life. I spent years trying to operate through this amour, presenting myself as perfect I as could be, trying to hide the real me. It did shield me from some of the pain, but it also blocked me from experiencing so much of the good things that life has to offer.
I owned a vast palace and yet I was living in a tiny locked away attic.
Completely disconnected and totally misaligned with the life I knew was possible for me, it was living with the pain of looking at my life through a one-way mirror, helpless not knowing how I could save myself.
I was so lonely feeling this disconnected. It wasn’t just affecting one aspect of my life; it was affecting everything. My ability to let people in, to be intimate, to form relationships, to make an impact with my purpose, my confidence, my capacity to feel alive.
Utterly determined to do whatever it took to live a full life, I poured my heart and soul into over a decade of talking therapies, retreats, year-long courses, modalities. They were each beneficial in their own right, but they also left me feeling perhaps even more isolated and helpless because I was giving it absolutely everything I had and although I understood what had happened, I still wasn't living the life I knew was possible for me.

And then I started working with my body and everything began to shift. By answering the call to reclaim my deeply feminine nature, I learned the infinite power and magic I could harness by feeling increasingly safe in my body by befriending my nervous system.
At last, I had found my winning formula: Befriending my Nervous System + Feminine Embodiment Practices = Gateway to the Sacred Feminine & the Aliveness and Freedom I longed for.
When I discovered this formula, I felt myself crying out 'why did no one tell me this?!’
With embodiment practices and nervous system regulation as my foundation, my heart began to crack open. The more I persevered, the more I found my innate courage to face the shame and hurt I’d been carrying inside and the more I was able to let life touch me again.
My healing journey was messy, agonising and excruciating, but each time I reclaimed a fragmented part of myself, the more I was able to melt into my innate confidence and the more alive I began to feel.
Coming home to my body again and again is my life’s work. It is my rebellion. It is my devotion.
My soul calling is to share this work with other women so they don’t have to spend years in the wilderness trying to figures it all by themselves.
I have studied embodiment with experts and completed multiple world class certifications.
