What if the parts of you that you’ve spent your life trying to fix, silence, discipline, or get rid of aren't actually the enemy? I recently joined Emma on Healing Odyssey for a conversation about recovery, ADHD, shadow work, hypnosis, body wisdom, and what it means to change without making yourself wrong first. And underneath all of those seemingly different topics was one thread: What changes when we lead ourselves with love through transformation rather than leading oursel

You know what you want to change. Maybe it's a habit you've been trying to break for years. Maybe you keep procrastinating on something that matters deeply to you. Maybe you want to exercise more, set better boundaries, stop people-pleasing, feel more confident, change your relationship with food, become more visible, create something, or finally do the thing you've been saying you're going to do. And you've probably already tried to make yourself change. You've made the plan

From all my experience of finding forgiveness in me for others and mysef, I don't think forgiveness is something we can simply decide to do. We hear things like just forgive them. Let it go. Take the high road. But saying “I forgive you” doesn't necessarily mean forgiveness has happened inside the body. Sometimes underneath those words there is still hurt. Rage. Bitterness. Disbelief. A nervous system saying: That hurt me. I need to remember that so it doesn't happen again. T

I got an interesting question recently about the philosophy behind my work: How can I call my tools neuroscience-informed and then, sometimes in the very same sentence, talk about magic? How do neuroscience and magic sit beside each other without apology? And I love this question because it gets right to the crux of what I do. You don't have to choose between evidence-based tools and spirituality, magic, or ritual. For me, these aren't opposing worlds. They're different langu

A lot of healing and shadow work begins with an invitation to approach the process and the parts of ourselves we've rejected with unconditional love. But what if you can't? What if you don't even like yourself right now, much less feel some epic, divine, unconditional love for yourself and all of your many parts? First: the expectation that you should be able to do that can become your inner perfectionist's next playing field. I'm not doing the healing right. I can't even loo

What if the parts of yourself you've been most afraid of aren't actually the problem? The bitch. The good girl. The hot bitch. The cold bitch. The little bitch. The big bitch. We got into all of them recently when I joined the Virgin Beauty B!tch podcast, and I found myself thinking about something I come back to again and again in my work: No part of us just goes away...

A Nervous System Approach to Family Healing When one person in a family is struggling, the entire family system feels it. A child’s anxiety. A parent’s overwhelm. Constant reactivity. Shutdown. Emotional outbursts. Tension between siblings. Exhaustion. Walking on eggshells. Feeling disconnected from one another even though everyone loves each other deeply. Often, families are trying incredibly hard to “fix” behavior on the surface while the nervous system underneath is still

Imagine this: You lock eyes with your partner, and there’s that spark again. That heat. That magnetic pull. ​ If you're at the point where you're wondering: "Why don’t I want sex anymore?" "How do I get my desire back?" "I love my husband, so why don’t I want him?" then you might think passion is dead... ​​ But the truth is, it’s still alive—it just needs tending. And that stirring inside you, the one that brought you here, is your wake-up call. Desire isn’t lost. It’s re

​There’s a path that leads down and into the depths of the self—instead of transcending the shadow, we move into it. Embrace it. Dance with it. This sacred side of us in intertwined with the lightness in us, it winds through the body. Through emotion. Through memory, desire, shame, and grief. It doesn’t seek to escape the human experience, but to enter it more fully. To meet it with reverence. This is the path I walk. Not toward transcendence, but toward integration. In my wo
