Join me for an intimate exploration of self-discovery

where I explore whats needed

for a healthy formation of identity,

and the challenges of mental health.

I’ll share my experiences with ADHD medication,

the hurdles of money management,

and the powerful ways our bodies can influence our minds.

We'll explore the somatic realm,

those physical sensations that speak volumes

and the world of ‘transference’.
