For most of my life, I felt like an outsider. I spent many years in a cult-like religion. This sheltered upbringing kept me secluded from “the real world,” making it difficult for me to fit in anywhere. On top of that, I witnessed a family member commit suicide when I was 3 and suffered from PTSD. This was not considered by my therapists. Instead, I was diagnosed and heavily medicated for mental illnesses I didn’t have. Because my dosages were way too high, I struggled to succeed in school and was held back and even put into special programs to prevent me from failing. More than anything, I wanted to feel “normal.” So, I learned to suppress my questions about religion and medical treatments. I played small and stayed quiet. I denied my creative talents to be a “structured intellectual.” I chose not to honor the flowing feminine that was dying to burst out of me so that I could go with the flow of the rest of the world. I repressed my sexuality because my of my religion. I had so much shame engrained into my mind around my yoni and my womb. As a result, I was completely afraid to be myself in fear that others would not accept me and that I would fail as a human being.

While I was trying to be the person the world expected me to be, I was creating toxic patterns as I said yes to relationships, jobs, and situations that weren’t aligned with my authentic desires. I allowed myself to be molded into the person my teachers, elders, boyfriends, and peers wanted me to be. This manifested into depression, anxiety, addictions, and abusive relationships. I silenced my womb wisdom as she tried again and again to reveal to me that I was not in alignment with my purpose. I grew to hate myself so much that I couldn’t look in the mirror. I developed eating disorders, attempted suicide, I tried to drink my feelings out of the way so I could experience joy, even for a moment. My womb became ill after years of this feminine abuse. I would experience clotting and pain so excruciating that no medication could bring me comfort. I allowed this suffering to manifest for decades before I realized that I had the power to RECLAIM the course of my life. I didn’t have to be ruled by everyone around me. I had the right to create space for my happiness.

Since then, I have studied under world renowned teachers, yogis, scientists, and psychologists who gifted me with healing practices that not only allowed me to integrate my pain and trauma, but fully express my femininity without fear or shame. I moved through many rites of passage along the way that allow me to share these gifts, rooted in ancient wisdom, with you. I believe that the more wombyn who break free from the mold placed on us by society and take responsibility for their authentic feminine power, the more collective power we have to deconstruct systems that are harmful to the health of humanity and create space to heal the planet.
