healing after trauma
Reader,
Living in the space of silence can be introspective but exhausting.
One of the major things I've learned in my healing from trauma is:
For years I never shared about my trauma until I realized in a workshop the power of vulnerably sharing. It no longer had the power it once had in my body or in my head.
Healing starts when we can find ways to express what’s still lingering in the background of our being. It requires us to get uncomfortable to grow and cope differently.
It requires pausing, reflecting and observing your patterns of behavior, who you are attracted to and for what reasons. Why do you keep repeating the same patterns? What are your automatic knee-jerk responses?
What are the ways of being in your life that still feel toxic, unhealthy, and counterproductive to what you truly want?
The way you live with your trauma can change.
A simple first step is acknowledging you experienced trauma. It is being a witness to how it's changed your life, your ways of being and your personality.
If you want more guidance on how to heal from trauma, I'm offering some spots open to work 1-on-1 in my mentoring program. It's a beautiful 6-month program where we work together to:
- Heal and cope with triggers
- Reframe stuck trains of thought
- Shift old belief systems
- Reconnect to your intuition
- Receive spiritual guidance from ancestors
I'd love to hear how this email inspires you and what comes up for you in your thoughts and body.
Hit REPLY and share if you feel like it.
Lots of love,

You might avoid and completely distract yourself with work or taking care of the "business" of things they left behind. Everyone has different ways of coping. Then there is the anniversaries, the holidays, and traditions that change. Sometimes you don't know how to grieve because the relationship was complicated or hard. Here's the thing, there is no right...
Reader, Happy almost 2024! We are nearly there in California. This is a bittersweet day for me. I spent some of it in reflection on a hike in the mountains. I experienced gratitude for the last seven years of time in Los Angeles. It's my 7-year anniversary living here in LA. I've grown and reconnected with myself. I know myself more deeply. I am proud of the woman I am today. If you haven't already, could you create a new year ritual for yourself? This can look like quiet time, writing, being...
Reader, You know that first feeling of meeting someone? You get so excited just thinking about them, fall in love, and before you know it you are celebrating your anniversary together. Somewhere along the way we might wake up and not remember who we are after being in a relationship. It's a common thing actually. We start to lose ourselves in the midst of building a relationship and life with someone else. It's when the break-ups happen we see sometimes massive transformations. People look...
