Welcome!

Welcome to my website! I'm glad you could join me here, and I want to be honest - Keeping It Real is what I'm all about, and in the spirit of transparency, I almost didn't start this column here on the site.

As a multi-published and award-winning author, I blogged for years. Writing was a full-time job until I began teaching embodiment arts, and then I wrote many weekly and monthly newsletters for Academy of Embodiment Arts. I created many videos and posts for social media, and for a time I was an online columnist for two digital publications. And one day, my creative outlet felt like it ran dry. All of a sudden, I didn't have the energy to keep creating. After publishing over 25 books, it felt weird that I didn't feel I had anything to say or share with the world. It gutted me.

I'm sure we've all been there at some point in our lives. Something we once loved suddenly became a chore, and we couldn't figure out why. Sometimes it's as simple as taking a break which I found I needed.

After being a busy mother for over 20 years, I underwent 2 surgeries to repair some hernias and birth injuries that had gone undiagnosed for far too long. My body needed more rest than I gave it for a while, and when the body speaks to you, it will speak to you in ways you least expect. I had a fatigue I couldn't quite figure out no matter how much sleep I got. Then I went through menopause, and for those who have gone through it or are in the midst of it, you know what sorts of changes the body goes through.

Medical practitioners often tell you to "get back to your normal" as soon as possible. But what is normal? When you haven't been able to live as you want to, or exercise as you need to, or any number of things, "normal" doesn't exist. Surgeries change you physically and emotionally as does giving birth, and being a caregiver to loved ones. Trauma changes you. Unexpected life changes throw you for a loop. Chronic pain can alter your personality as well as cause emotional and physical distress.

You name it, I've probably been through it in some fashion. After two surgeries in two years, my creative well not only dried up, I felt like it disappeared completely. As I went through grief processes, healing processes, and learned to reclaim my energy from being in survival mode for a long time, I realized my creative juices were busy healing me physically and emotionally. For a time, I felt lost. I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. With the right support, I found an inner peace that is now unshakable.

I want that to be my gift to you. Whether you join me here as a client, attend my webinars, meditations, or online classes, I strive to assist you to find your unshakable inner peace. Hypnotherapy has been a big part of my journey to hear the subconscious messages of my body, and I want to share that with you. Over time, I'll share my journey with hypnotherapy, discuss my sessions and the process of creating them, as well as letting you know when new products are here and when I'm hosting workshops and group sessions.

Thank you for joining me! I look forward to connecting.
