What’s really keeping you from wholeheartedly trusting yourself, trusting your values, and always showing up on your own terms…no matter the circumstance, situation, or relationships you’re in? And what do you want instead?

These two questions will live at the center of our work together for the next year.

Do you ever get the feeling that while you’ve been busy navigating everything and everyone, you’ve somehow lost track of yourself? You’ve got the value system, you know the words - like decolonize, and anticapitalism, and capacity, and liberation - you follow all the right people and read all the right books and have done all the therapy and keep trying your damndest and somehow it STILL feels like you have no idea how to experience a life that feels like it’s actually yours to claim?

Welcome, beautiful friend. You’re not broken, I promise. And I can tell you why you’re stuck.

Because all those fancy words - decolonize, anticapitalism, liberation, capacity - they’re just distant, abstract ideas until you figure out the patterns in your own life that are keeping you from embodying them. You’ve spent a lifetime moving through an oppressive world as YOU. If you’re going to undo anything, you first have to start by understanding the relationship you’ve built between oppression and YOURSELF.

At the heart of this work is our search for the sneakiest ways you’ve internalized and integrated painful ideas around worth, value, and yourself - ideas that keep you from trusting your true nature and genuinely living a life aligned with your values, your integrity and your whole self. These ideas often hide beneath the ways you’ve adapted to navigate a world that was always designed to stifle your liberation - whether that shows up as perfectionism disguised as excellence, code-switching and masking, being overly self-critical, obsessing over self-improvement, compartmentalizing aspects of who you are, shrinking, over-advocating, or forcing yourself to fit molds that ultimately feel like wearing a mask.

The end result of stifling and muffling ourselves this way is a feeling of friction (something feels off), without an ability to fully understand it. You may have built such a codependent relationship with oppression that you’re mistaking your coping mechanisms for your personality.

Coaching is a co-creative process that allows me to wander along by your side for a year, helping you gain clarity and insight into what it would actually take to let yourself be who you are, and let go of the rest. You get to reclaim yourself, reject what isn’t yours (and never should have been), and in the process, find the true power of what it means to be yourself.

I’d love to meet the real you, and I hope you’d like to, too.
