For a long time, I didn’t trust myself. I was always looking outside of me for answers, for approval, for permission.

Spring has a way of reminding us that we get to begin again. 🌸

This is my latest blog, about what it really means to take your power back and start choosing yourself. 🦋

🌸 Happy First Day of Spring! 🌸 I hope you're feeling the magic in the air today! There's something about the first day of spring that always feels like a fresh exhale. The world is waking up, things are blooming, and there's this quiet invitation to begin again.This month, I've been thinking a...

The holidays can feel strange, uncomfortable, and emotional after leaving a high control religion, especially if you were taught that celebrating was wrong. I wrote this piece to share a little bit of my own story and how I learned to make this season feel joyful and safe. If you are still figuring out what the holidays mean to you or you are trying to create new traditions that actually feel good, this might give you some comfort and ideas.

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday in whatever way brings you joy.

When I was a little girl, I loved the spirit in the air during Christmas, but my mom taught me it was something bad, not good. Leaving that teaching behind, I discovered that the season can be joyful, magical, and an opportunity to create my own traditions. It’s actually my very favorite time of t...

This time of year is a perfect reminder to pause and reflect on how far you’ve come. Gratitude isn’t just a feeling, it’s a powerful practice that can shift your whole mindset toward healing and empowerment.

Read my latest blog on the transformative power of gratitude and self-recognition. 🍁

As November arrives, it’s a natural time to pause and reflect. Gratitude isn’t just about holidays or traditions, it’s about noticing the growth, strength, and progress you’ve made on your personal journey. Especially after leaving a high-control religion, recognizing your resilience and win...

✨ I’m Officially Coaching Kids! ✨

I’m so excited to share that I am now a Certified Life Coach for Kids through Adventures in Wisdom®! 🌟

As you know, I’ve been coaching for 5 years as a Master Certified NLP Life Coach, and I’m super excited to expand my work to help children thrive.

After exploring Adventures in Wisdom®, I am blown away by how effective and engaging the program is. It truly equips kids with mindset skills that will serve them for life. Through coaching, children learn how to:

✅ Build confidence and self-esteem
✅ Handle challenges and mistakes in healthy ways
✅ Make good decisions and trust themselves
✅ Develop resilience, emotional intelligence, and a positive mindset

As a life coach, I will empower kids the same way I do with adults. Instead of waiting for negative emotions and limiting beliefs to develop, I will work with kids early to help shift their thinking. I’ll guide them in building tools and skills that support them now and as they grow into teens and adults. These skills are rarely taught in school, yet they can make a remarkable difference in how children see themselves and the world around them. 💡

🎉 And to celebrate this new chapter, I’m offering a special Founding Family Rate:

✨ The first 3 families who sign up will receive 25% off coaching and that rate will be locked in for you!

If you’ve been looking for a way to support your child’s growth, confidence, and happiness, this is the perfect time to begin. 💕

My latest blog ... 🍂🍁🍂🍁

As autumn arrives, the leaves remind us of something powerful. Trees don’t cling to what no longer serves them. They let go with grace, trusting that each falling leaf makes space for rest, renewal, and new growth. Healing from religious trauma is much the same. You may find yourself shedding old ...

Finding Freedom: Healing After Religious Trauma

Leaving a high-control religion can feel like stepping into a whole new world, equal parts exciting and overwhelming. For so long, you may have been told who to be, what to believe, and how to live. Once you walk away, questions like “Who am I now?” or “What do I even believe?” can feel heavy.

Healing doesn’t happen overnight, it’s not about “just getting over it.” It’s about untangling old conditioning, releasing fear and guilt, and slowly reclaiming your authentic self.

In my latest article, I share practical ways to begin (or continue) your healing journey, including:

🦋 How to acknowledge and validate your experience
🦋 Simple practices to reconnect with your authentic self
🦋 Tools for releasing limiting beliefs and self-judgment
🦋 The importance of building a supportive, safe community
🦋 Why small, empowered steps matter more than perfection

If you’re on this path, know you’re not alone, and there are compassionate, empowering ways to move forward with clarity and confidence.

👉 Read the full article here:

Leaving a high-control religion can feel like stepping into the unknown. For years, you may have been taught who to be, what to think, and how to live. When you leave, the world can feel both exciting and frightening. You might experience fear, guilt, or confusion about who you are without the struc...

✨ “Man becomes whole, integrated, calm, fertile, and happy when (and only when) the process of individuation is complete, when the conscious and the unconscious have learned to live at peace and to complement one another.” – Carl Jung

Jung was pointing to something profound here: real peace doesn’t come from chasing perfection or pushing down the parts of ourselves we don’t like. It comes when our conscious mind (the part of us that thinks, plans, decides) and our unconscious mind (the part holding memories, patterns, instincts, and old wounds) begin to work together.

So often, inner conflict shows up as:

🌑 Knowing what you should do, but not following through
🌑 Feeling pulled between who you are and who you “should” be
🌑 Repeating old patterns even when you want change

That tug-of-war is the conscious and unconscious not being on the same page.

💫 This is where NLP can help. NLP works directly with the unconscious mind, the part that stores beliefs and patterns, to gently rewire old programs that no longer serve you. Instead of trying to force change with willpower, NLP helps your conscious and unconscious minds align, so you naturally begin to feel calmer, more whole, and more you.

If you’ve felt like part of you is holding back while another part longs to move forward, this is exactly the kind of work I do with clients. When both sides of you are in harmony, change feels lighter, and life feels more authentic. 🌙✨

Ever feel like a tiny letdown hits way harder than it should? Yeah, you’re not imagining it.

In my latest blog, I’m talking about disappointment, why it sometimes feels huge and what to do when it does.

It’s a reminder that even when it’s hard, you’re still growing. 🌱

I wanted to write today about something that doesn't always get the space it deserves: disappointment. It's a quiet emotion, often brushed off as “just part of life.” But lately, it's been coming up in my conversations with clients and in my own reflections, and I thought it might be showing up ...
