She is amazed by the kaleidoscope of identities one person can take on and is endlessly compassionate about the depth of human emotion.
In her personal life experiment she chose to deconstruct all the pillars of her identity structure in one big stroke of radical renewal: she quit her safe job, left a long-term relationship, and moved from her city to a tropical island - forced by the growing pain of anxiety attacks and nearing burnout, and fueledby the deep hope that despite the darkness in a life that didn’t feel like her own, there is a light much brighter and warmer than she could even imagine.
Today she is here to hold a loving space for anyone ready to meet themselves and to navigate darkness with an open heart. In her Somatic Coaching programs she guides womento grow their capacity to be with their emotions, and catalyze pain and misalignment into pathways to real, authentic growth.
