My Story

Have you put your whole heart into taking care of others, and still feel like it’s not enough? Do you keep striving to be more organized and motivated, but the stress drags you down again and again? If you’ve tried self-care and healthier habits without lasting results, you’re not alone.

Hello again, I’m Jennifer

My story ebbs and flows with the ever changing seasons of becoming a woman. The most prominent of season being when I married, and my dreams of being a stay at home mom came true. However, the story book magic of what I thought it would be, began to fade as I began to give more and more of myself to my family. I began to question why giving my time and energy to making others happy didn’t make me feel happier like it once had.

In spring of 2022, I was in a profoundly dark season when someone reached out to offer me help. I had a pinch of hope left in me, and took her hand. I went from survival, fix it mode in my whole body, to reigniting my self trust and gaining a sense of wholeness. Through journaling, I rewrote the stories I believed about myself, anchored into who I am as a woman, and created safety within myself to expand and grow.

Knowing I always have a place to come home to, within myself, has given me the passion to share with others how they can do the same. I hope we can come together and build a community of brave and radical self healers.

Random Things About Me:

I broke my arm as a teenager, playing basketball in gym class. I have one large tattoo on my hip. I’m more of a realist when it comes to dreams, and optimistic about most things. My husband and I have built four houses. I’m a terrible swimmer. I believe everyone deserves respect and that most people at their core are kind. I’ve been described as “gently uninhibited”, honest, transparent, and self aware.

Things I Love:

Getting dirty in the garden, warm fresh sourdough with lots of butter, pink sunrises, having alone time, the way mountain peaks make me feel like the world is bigger than me, and the soul cleansing power of the sun, how profoundly majestic eagles are, and the perseverance of earthworms, tea and plant shops, friends who lovingly call me out, waves crashing against the beach, and when my kids ask for a hug.

I am not a licensed therapist or healthcare provider.

I also cannot say I've been where you are, because our experiences are unique to each of us as individuals.

But I've experienced massive healing through nervous system work, holistic coaching, journaling classes, how to work with (not against) my monthly cycle, and somatic breathing techniques.​

If you'll let me, I would like to share these resources with you in hopes they might serve you through your own healing journey.
