the universe works in unique ways
the past 14 months have shook me to my core
I’ve been reflecting on this time last year.
I’d just returned from 7 weeks of solo-travel in Europe, including a 264 kilometer walk up the coast of Portugal.
Wrestling with an existential crisis, I walked the Camino de Santiago, an ancient Catholic pilgrimage to the tomb of St. James.
In medieval times, over half a million pilgrims walked the hallowed path every year (today, it sees over 375k).
Why?
Because each one of those beautiful souls is seeking something beyond the physical world.
And, I was no different.
I was tied to a business I no longer wanted to be involved with.
I wasn’t working with the right demographic, stress levels were too high and I felt super stuck.
I was confused on what to do next.
Initially, I had been extremely dedicated to building this business.
I was also working a therapy caseload and spending 2 days a week at a mental health clinic.
Yet on this walk, I was questioning everything.
“Is this it?”
“How can I do more?”
“If I start over, I’ll have to destroy everything I’ve worked so hard to build…”
Now I want to be clear.
These aren’t easy questions to answer (even if you’re a professional therapist who helps other people figure out these questions… funny how that works).
But fast forward 14 months:
I’ve built a buzzing audience of nearly 22,000 people.
I’ve helped hundreds experience the life changing effects of Somatic Therapy (my speciality) - to live a life free from anxiety, brain fog and overwhelm.
Started a podcast and got a person with over 4 million followers as my first guest.
Wow…
All the synchronicities that have developed over these last 14 months have shook me to the core.
It’s astonishing what can happen when you invest in yourself and adopt your singleness of purpose.
But I don’t share any of this to talk big about myself…
It’s merely to thank you for your support on this new quest I’ve embarked on…
And remind you to take a leap of faith.
The universe has a way of aligning when you commit fully to the path.
Peace,

P.S. One of the things that’s helped me the most (along with hundreds of people I’ve worked with) is Somatic Therapy.
While the last 12 months have been life-changing, they haven’t been straightforward. It’s been fraught with uncertainty and self-doubt. That’s just how self-exploration is.
Which is why I’ve used Somatic Therapy to center myself when I needed to show up as my best. It’s my favorite tool for bringing sustainable peace, calm, and energy into my life.
My preferred mode is personal coaching, but that limits my ability to create an impact at scale.
Which is why I’m excited to share my new course with you!
It’s the most accessible way I’ve come across for experiencing the benefits of Somatic Therapy—in as little as 7 days. Even if you’ve never heard of it or practiced it before.
Keep a lookout for more on this in the coming weeks!
