our first misstep in our healing journey is to deny our intuition the ability to move us. growing up, everywhere i looked, i felt nobody was like me. yet, orders were given, and i followed: “work, marry, listen.” we tell ourselves if we follow scripts and stick to our roles that we will live happy, successful lives. and still, for much of my life, what i thought was happiness was created by the demands of others. i could hardly recognize success. until one day i could hardly recognize myself.

I thought i was the problem. it took me years to realize i had been forced to learn the wrong lessons, from the wrong sources. i hadn’t yet discovered who i was, and what i was made of — because of the ways institutions and systems interfered with me trusting my intuition. it took me years, and countless experiences to unlearn the patterns that held my body and my consciousness captive. my writing practice is what supported me in creating rituals of unlearning and remembering.

as a genuinely curious person, i ponder processes created in order to locate truths from a place within ourselves. i am curious about what it looks like to be in devotion to holding many truths at once, and becoming familiar with how they interrelate. i believe that relationship can be a devotion to expression and connection that regenerates relationship with ourselves, our relatives and our earth.

my coaching and consulting frameworks, self-healing decks, journaling guides and paintings offer sustainable self-healing processes that support reducing the power of negative thoughts and harmful limiting beliefs.
