Dear One, 

Are you struggling to make a big decision? Have you been anxiously ruminating on a “What If?” for way too long? Are you still having a hard time forgiving yourself or someone else? Is there an absolutely unbearable disparity between your work and your joy on a daily basis? Are you preparing to make a big change like going back to school? Or perhaps, like most of us, Life has already taken some unanticipated turns in the past year or so and you are craving gentle support and emotional resources to help you navigate ongoing grief, new roles, or unknowns. The work it takes to establish our new boundaries, feel grounded, and embody new selves often floods us with all our emotions at once - excitement, hesitation, and the painful necessity of heavy emotional lifting - especially since all of the other aspects of our relationships don’t stop circulating. I deeply acknowledge your fear and courage to be vulnerable and reach for support when tipping into new uncharted arenas.

You do not have to figure it all out alone or with the bare minimum any longer. We can work together to co-create a gentle and enlivened space to address the changes happening and deepen your decisive intuition. I am genuinely curious about what is evolving in your Life. It’s a New Year filled with possibilities and deciding what to carry into it deserves some loving care, intentional reflection, and creativity. We can set up an initial 30 minute call to chat about what is circulating in your Heart and my services. I am ready to listen and assist you in putting meaningful rituals into practice to serve your growth.
