Looking back, I’ve had quite the business journey…
I remember when I decided to take my healing practice beyond the spiritual center where I became licensed in 2009, and how big my dreams were to reach more people and spread my unique message across the lands of the internet and the world beyond.
I was so full of hope and purpose! I was gonna make a DIFFERENCE!
I had spent my teens and 20’s studying revolutionaries, alternative approaches to spirituality and leadership, and just wanted to share my message and my service, not become a sales person or a business person.
The lifelong anarchist & activist parts of me didn’t want to PARTICIPATE in the system, they wanted to DISRUPT and SHIFT the systems of business, money, and power.
Oh, how naive I was then!
I was committed, though, to making a difference in the world with my work, so I invested big time and money into all the missing pieces: marketing & business classes & courses, long high-ticket programs for holistic practitioners to learn client attraction and positioning oneself as the authority, plus countless hours playing with the technology and systems to make it all happen online.
These were things I had actually been resisting for most of my adult life.
Business things. Marketing things. Sales things.
So I learned, I studied, I practiced.
I wanted it all to work SO BAD.

And it did… sort of. But it didn’t feel very good. And it took a lot out of me.
Yes, I was seeing clients and that work was fulfilling for both of us, but the way they came to me seemed more like a fluke than a symptom of all my efforts. It didn’t feel repeatable.
It also didn’t feel authentic; it was like I constantly needed to become someone else to make it all work. (I now know this as masking)
I felt so confused by what to focus on, what tasks to do, and how to show up in a way that brought in the right people, that I kept churning thoughts about my business 100% of every day, as my ADHD brain tried to answer the burning question: how do I do this “right”?
At this point I not only felt powerless to create a business model that truly worked for me, I felt powerless to change the world in the big way my soul yearned for.
It was like I was a tree that had spent so many seasons growing and building energy up to offer this delicious fruit, and most of it was just laying there, rotting on the ground.
I felt defeated as I watched my peers grow their businesses and impact, while here I was still feeling at square one after years of seeing clients and building my business online.
I craved more ease and flow, more joy and pleasure, and a sense of confidence in how I ran my business (not just in the services I was providing).
It was so jarring to have my sessions and lessons with clients feel light and fulfilling, while all the other parts of my work felt heavy and exhausting.
By the end of 2017, after years of pushing so hard and working all hours and days and trying all the things, I crashed… HARD.
I had to admit to myself: it wasn’t working. I wasn’t happy. My mental & physical health were suffering.
After all my years of healing and growth, I was disappointed in myself for letting things get so bad. I couldn’t do it anymore.

So, I gave up.

Seriously. I gave myself permission to stop trying because it was hurting me and stealing my joy and negatively impacting my health and my relationships.
I spent the last few weeks of 2017 on the couch, recovering from a severe chronic health flare up, wondering what I would do once I burned it all down.

Then, as 2018 began, a different voice spoke up within me. The voice that came from the deep purpose that I’ve had my whole life.
This voice said gently but firmly, “you can still do this, but you’re gonna have to do it differently. You’re gonna have to lead yourself in a different way. You’re gonna have to heal some wounds that are in the way. You’re gonna have to remember who you are and take a stand to be THAT.”
In that moment, I had a huge realization of some major things that had been missing in my approach: healing, and leadership.
I teach that awareness equals choice, and with this new found awareness, I could make different choices!
I had to be honest with myself that I had big wounds around being told to do things in a way that goes against my values, my neurodivergence, and my lifestyle.
I also had wounds around power and authority that needed attention so I could show up as a leader for my business and for my prospective clients' healing journey.
In order to do that, I had to stop giving my power of choice away to other coaches, leaders, and influencers, and to learn how to make progress my way… without force, domination, or shame as my tactics.
I had to step into a different kind of leadership for myself, my business, and my people. To utilize my strong connection to my body, my intuition, and Spirit.

This changed everything.

That year I went from barely making any money to increasing my income each month for the first three quarters of 2018. I was able to pay down those business investments I made, and go on a vacation with my family where I was fully present, not trying to solve business problems in my mind the whole time.
Not only that, but I was enjoying myself and my work days! I was listening to myself and choosing to prioritize my needs! I chose mentors who trusted me to know what was best for my time, my body, my business and helped me do that!

Plus, the caliber of clients who I attracted shifted, too.
These people were taking responsibility for their journey and really showing up for the work, while also trusting me to hold space for deep, uncomfortable things that needed to be healed or unlearned in order for them to make progress.
My sales conversations went more smoothly, and I got more reach outs from people inspired by how I was showing up online and in local communities.
They could feel my leadership, my connection to the divine, and my strength in what I offer and how I show up for my people and myself. I didn’t have to prove anything or push anyone. They felt my trustworthiness and wanted a taste of the kind of fruits my tree provides.
I’m so glad I didn’t give up.
Thankfully you CAN enjoy a healing practice that is sustainable, profitable, impactful, and fulfilling.
You can lead yourself in a way that works with your neurodivergence, manages your time and energy well, prioritizes joy and pleasure, and honors your connection to the Universe.
You can lead your business in a way that has you feeling organized, clear on what to focus on, and confident in your ability to reach your goals.
You can lead your clients and potential clients in a way that cultivates the trust and safety needed for healing, and where they truly value you and your work.
And you can get to a place where you have a healthier relationship with and understanding of your power; where you’re not afraid to wield it because you know you’re not using it in an unethical way.
You’re not trying to be anyone’s guru.
You can come from your desire to lead your clients and community members to tap into their own unique power, not to give it away to you or anyone else.
And I wanna show you how.
I want to show you how to have a life and business that feed your soul, not suck it dry or leave you at the constant edge of burnout or overwhelm.
I want to show you how to manage your time, tasks, and energy in a sustainable way that hits your goals, fulfills your purpose, and honors your neurodivergence and mental and/or physical health challenges.
I want to show you how to lead yourself, your business, and your clients with integrity, and without the “old paradigm” ways of domination, force, or shame.
I want to show you everything.
It took me a full decade to finally feel solid in running my business.
But I don’t want it to take you that long!
Right now, the world needs healers, teachers, and empathetic leaders to help us through these difficult transitions and create a better world.
