LIVING out LOUD
I’m a Vermont-raised wildling living in Los Angeles
with a love of myths and folktales by women authors, audacious high fashion, and disappearing into the woods from time to time.
I’m also a Transformational Coach, Somatic Experiencing® Trauma Resolution Practitioner, certified Yoga Therapist, published author, wifey, and nature-quester.
FUN FACTS:
I’ve got a running list of my favorite trees in Los Angeles, which I regularly visit (and talk to).
I impulsively bought a three thousand dollar dress on Rodeo Drive when I thought my boyfriend might propose (Thankfully, he did).
I feel like I might be Axl Rose in an alternate universe (the younger version of course).
But above all
I am passionate about helping people go for it - boldly do the thing they’ve been holding back on for years.
This lights the fire under me to do the work I do every day.
Which brings me to YOU…
Do you have unexpressed talents as a writer, artist, teacher, coach, healer, etc.?
Are you secretly ambitious for more money, influence, or power - while also feeling ashamed of wanting those things?
Do you crave radical independence - where you don’t have to defer to others for permission to live how you want, create what you want, and say whatever the f*ck you want?
I get it.
There’s no bigger bummer than living a sort-of fulfilling life.
THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE IS TO GO OUT THERE AND ACTUALLY TRY TO MAKE THOSE BIGGER DREAMS HAPPEN.
Otherwise, what’s the point?
I’ve always been someone who went for it
- even when no one else was doing it, and it didn’t really make sense to the people around me:

But doing my thing and going against the grain of what others expect isn’t always easy.
At times, I have tried to talk myself out of what I really want.
Producing an impressive list of all the reasons I cannot and should not go for it. (No one will understand/I’ll make an ass of myself/it’s a dumb idea/I should be happy with what I have, etc.).
Going for it takes balls… ahem, ovaries… and some legit tools. Thankfully, I’ve amassed quite a lot of those tools over the years.
The tools I’ve used to get out of my own way, show up, and do my thing:
01.
Yoga Philosophy
I spent 10+ years studying and teaching the richest spiritual philosophy. I sometimes joke that the Yoga Sutra by Indian sage Patanjali was the OG self-help book – and possibly the best one.
Applied spiritual teachings create profound shifts in self-acceptance that help liberate you to take action in the world.
02.
Somatic Experiencing® Trauma Resolution
After a life-threatening car accident in 2011, I worked with an SE™ Practitioner to heal my PTSD. Upon feeling its profound impact, I became an SE™ practitioner myself.
When it comes to getting over those deep-seated fears related to putting yourself out there and breaking past patterns, SE is key.

Coaching techniques
Change takes intention-setting, strategy, and follow-through baby!
These action-oriented techniques get you out of your head and into real life where you can make your goals happen in 3D.
But now, back to YOU -
What if, as of today, the dog days were over?
What if, right now, you started doing the stuff you really want to do… and didn’t ever quit on yourself again?
What if, in the pursuit of that life, you started feeling more happy, energized, sexy, courageous, more fully You…?
What if you crafted a vision for your future that includes everything you value, everything that turns you on, then woke up each morning and prioritized getting there with the words you speak, your behaviors and actions?
And what if you attracted the most wonderful people on your path – who inspire, delight and encourage you? The kind of people you want to live this life side-by-side with…
