Healing Ourselves Is the True Revolution

Sharing 3 healing practices that have transformed my life.

This weekend, I was chatting with some new friends about life when the usual question came up: What do you do for work?

I used to hate that question. For years, I felt lost when it came to my career, unsure of what truly lit me up. But now I love answering it. I get excited to share my journey because I’ve finally found work that aligns with my soul.

Two months ago, I started working at a wellness center for moms called Rooted. I spend my days organizing programs, classes, and events while connecting deeply with the mamas who visit our space. I love my job for many reasons, but the biggest one? It’s a space for learning, growth, and healing.

The Journey to Finding My Path

Four years ago, when I left the film industry, I had no idea what was next for me. I searched high and low for something that could bring me the same excitement, but nothing felt right. That time was filled with disillusionment and confusion. I didn’t know where to focus my energy, and despite trying many things, nothing stuck.

Looking back now, I needed that time to go through my own heal journey. I needed to get to know myself on a deeper level and find something I can stand for and feel really lit up to share with others.

I had to become aware of my conditioning and limiting beliefs in order to set myself free. For so long, I was living from a place of past trauma and fear—falling into relationships that weren’t right for me, experiencing physical illness from unrecognized stress, and feeling trapped in cycles I didn’t know how to break. But through deep self-awareness and healing, I began to transform these patterns. I found tools that helped me move through mental blocks, release old conditioning, and create a new way of being.

Because of all the inner work I’ve done over the past few years, I now feel deeply called to guide others on their own journey. I want to help people become aware of themselves, uncover what’s been holding them back, and share the tools that have not only helped me heal but have also brought more freedom and ease into my life.

Here are three key tools that helped me along my healing journey:

1. Writing & Journaling

I’ve always had a habit of writing things down here and there, but in 2020, everything changed when I read The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron. That’s when I started practicing Morning Pages—writing three pages of free-flowing thoughts every morning. It became a space for me to clear my mind, process emotions, and uncover thoughts I wasn’t even consciously aware of.

Even though I’m not as consistent with it as I used to be, journaling remains one of my most powerful tools. Whenever I feel stuck or overwhelmed, I turn to writing. If I can’t bring myself to meditate, I write. If I need clarity, I write. It’s like having a conversation with my with self.

2. Meditation & Breathing

Meditation and breathing have been powerful tools in helping me reconnect with my body. Before I started practicing, I had no idea how disconnected I was—how much I had normalized stress and chaos without even realizing it.

Through meditation, I learned to sit with my emotions rather than avoid them. I became more aware of how peace and ease actually felt in my body, which helped me recognize when something was off. Now, whenever I notice stress creeping in, I take about five minutes to breathe deeply, reset, and allow the emotions to move through me before continuing with my day.

3. To Be Magnetic (TBM) Work

I can’t emphasize enough how much this program has helped me elevate my self-worth. I joined TBM in November 2023, and while it’s known as a manifestation program, for me, it’s been so much more than that. The real work is about reconnecting with your authentic self and uncovering the subconscious blocks that keep you from fully stepping into the life you truly desire.

Through this process, I’ve become deeply aware of my patterns—how much of my life I was living from a place of self-doubt and lack of self-love. Over the past year and a half, I’ve shed limiting beliefs and behaviors that kept me stuck in situations and relationships that weren’t aligned with me. This work has been life-changing, and as a direct result, I even manifested my current job!

Healing Is A Revolution

I wouldn’t be where I am today without the inner work I’ve done. My time at Rooted has shown me where my passion truly lies—guiding others through their own healing journey. I’ve seen firsthand how healing transforms not only our inner world but also our external reality.

Since prioritizing my healing, my relationships have improved, I’ve become kinder to myself, and I trust myself more than ever to pursue my dreams. This is the transformation I hope to help others experience—whether through my work at Rooted, my astrology readings, or simply by holding space for deep listening.

If you are feeling called to work with me I have availability for 1:1 readings in March. My Soul Blueprint Reading, is designed to help you understand your soul’s purpose, your unique gifts, and the challenges you’re here to work through the lens of Astrology, Human Design and Gene Keys. My goal is to empower you to live life your way—with more ease and flow.

I’d love to hear from you: What are your go-to healing practices? What has helped you reconnect with yourself during challenging times? I’d love to learn from you and continue this conversation. 💛

I’ll leave you with this little gem I channeled the other day while I was journaling:

“They feed off our insecurities, convincing us that we need this and that to feel beautiful, worthy, enough. But baby, you were born worthy. Nothing outside of you can ever contain your infinite essence.

You are more than the stories and beliefs imprinted in your mind. Don’t let fear keep you playing small. You are more powerful than you think. Your strength, your wisdom—it’s backed by thousands of ancestors who paved the way for you to be here today.

When you tap into the infinite source within, you’ll see how deeply connected you are—to the cosmos, to nature, to everything. You are unstoppable when you realize this.

Everything you need is already inside you. The moment you let go of attachment to your programing, pain and past, they can’t control you..

This is the real revolution. And it starts within. ”
