The Journey Behind This Work

From my own journey of healing and becoming through motherhood to yours.

Before becoming a mother, I had spent years immersed in health and wellness, yoga, and integrative practices. Movement was how I regulated stress. It was my outlet, my reset, my way back to myself. I believed I had the tools to stay grounded through life’s challenges.

But when I stepped into motherhood, everything shifted.

The stress, the intensity, the emotional and physical changes — it all felt bigger than anything I had prepared for. During pregnancy and postpartum, I could no longer move in the ways I once had. My body required something different — slower, softer, more attuned. And without my usual way of coping, I found myself struggling in ways I hadn’t expected.

It was humbling.

Motherhood brought me face to face with something deeper. Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum stirred layers of old patterns and unresolved trauma, revealing a lifelong experience of living in a dysregulated nervous system. Despite my background, I felt overwhelmed, anxious, and searching for steadiness in a way that felt both confusing and confronting.

I realized what I needed wasn’t more discipline, more knowledge, or more effort. I needed safety in my body.

So I began to dig deeper.

I immersed myself in understanding how the nervous system works — especially when shaped by trauma and high stress. I explored somatic practices, gentle regulation tools, and body-based healing that honored the pace of motherhood while still nurturing the mind-body connection. This work was different. It wasn’t about pushing harder. It was about listening more closely.

Slowly, I began to feel more steady. More present. More connected.

I learned how to support myself in a way that allowed me to show up for my children and my family with greater grounding instead of reactivity. That journey changed everything.

Today, I bring both my professional training and my lived experience into this work.

I know how isolating and overwhelming this season can feel. And I also know how powerful it is to have someone hold space for you while you find your footing again. My intention is to offer mothers the kind of support I once needed — a place where you can feel safe, understood, and gently guided as you navigate the beautiful, chaotic rhythm of motherhood.

I am a Board-Certified Health Coach (NBHWC), Somatic Integration Practitioner, Registered Yoga Teacher, and Reiki Practitioner, and I hold a Master’s in Integrative Medicine and Ayurveda.

But beyond any title or training, my greatest teachers have been motherhood itself — learning, unlearning, and growing alongside my children and our family.

Because when we learn to show up for ourselves with more steadiness and compassion, we naturally begin to show up more fully for our children. And from that place, we create a rhythm of calm, safety, and connection that ripples through our homes.

This is the heart of why I do this work — because when we heal and soften together, we create a slower, more grounded, and more present world for our children to grow within.

This is a space where you can exhale.
