October Newsletter No Escape Hatch: How I Face What’s Still Alive Inside Me Hi friends~ Since returning home from my Somatic IFS Step 1 training, people keep asking me, “How was it?” It’s a simple question—but the answer isn’t. In therapy trainings, we’re not passive learners. We don’t sit at the edge of the work. We become the work. We step into the client role and meet whatever’s ready to surface. And what surfaced for me? Memories. The ones I thought I’d already “dealt with.”The ones I’m...

September Newsletter What a Baby Shark Taught Me About Letting Go Hi friends~ On my very first fishing trip, I expected to catch something small, maybe a flounder. Instead, I reeled in a baby shark. 🦈 Tradition says you kiss the shark before tossing it back—kind of a sailor’s blessing. So I kissed it hard, partly for luck and partly to make sure it wouldn’t come back to nip me while I was in the water. A wild little rite of passage—sealed with salt, laughter, and a kiss. 🌊✨ Since then, I’ve...

August Newsletter Speak it Anyway Hi friends~ August always feels like a threshold month—summer’s warmth still wrapping us in its glow, but with a quiet whisper that change is near. Maybe it’s the back-to-school energy in the air, or the way sunsets seem a little earlier each evening. The other day I came across these words from Audre Lorde: “I have come to believe over and over again that what is most important to me must be spoken, made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it...

Hi friend, If you’ve been circling the idea of Writing Bravely but still haven’t signed up, I want to speak to the three things I hear most often: 1. “I’m not a writer.”Perfect. You’re exactly who this is for.Writing Bravely isn’t about polished essays or perfect grammar, it’s about showing up honestly. It’s about letting your voice be heard, especially the parts that haven’t had space before. 2. “I don’t have time.”Totally fair. Life is full.That’s why this course is paced for real people: 6...

Hi friend, I get it, signing up for something when you’re not sure what actually happens inside can feel like stepping into the dark. So here’s a peek into a Writing Bravely session: We start by settling in. A few deep breaths. A simple somatic practice to help your body realize, Oh… we’re safe here. I’ll introduce the week’s theme, maybe it’s reclaiming your voice from shame, or naming the shape of your grief. We don’t just talk about it… we feel into it. Then comes the writing.I’ll give you...

Hi friend, There was a season in my life when everything felt… heavy.I’d sit with my journal, pen in hand, and nothing would come out but to-do lists and half-finished sentences.I wasn’t blocked because I lacked discipline.I was blocked because I was scared to hear what I really had to say. Being stuck doesn’t mean you’re broken.It usually means your nervous system is trying to protect you the only way it knows how. That’s why I created Writing Bravely.It’s a space where you can slow down,...
