Just don’t know where to hang it yet.

🌟 The Empath’s Dilemma: Overcoming Guilt and Setting Boundaries in Business 🌟

Addressing a Common Struggle

As a healer and trauma-informed coach, I often witness clients feeling completely overwhelmed and reaching out for help. They call me, drowning in work, unable to stay on top of things, and knowing something has to change.

These empaths are overwhelmed by their deep sensitivity and the emotional burdens they carry from others. They come to me not just for business strategies but for deeper healing.

When I first started my healing practice, I was terrified of saying "no" to my clients. I constantly over-gave, hoping to ensure their happiness, which led to frequent burnout. This pattern stemmed from trauma and my anxious attachment style. Through years of healing work and learning about healthy boundaries, I discovered the key to staying grounded.

🌼 The Challenge of Being an Empath

Empaths naturally absorb the emotions and energies of others, making it essential to establish strong boundaries. This heightened sensitivity can lead to emotional exhaustion, especially when working closely with clients.

Common Struggles for Empaths:

🌊 Emotional Overload: Empaths often soak up others' moods, leading to emotional “junk” that weighs them down by the end of the day.
🤔 Confusion of Emotions: Struggling to distinguish between their own emotions and those of others.
😟 Guilt and Boundary Setting: Feeling guilty for setting boundaries, worrying it might be seen as "mean" or "selfish".
🥵 Burnout and Emotional Exhaustion: Constant absorption of others' emotions can lead to severe burnout.
👎 Exposure to Negative Energies: Vulnerability to negative energies, including manipulative individuals.
📉 The Impact on Business Capacity

When empaths struggle with setting boundaries and managing guilt, it can significantly impact their business capacity:

🏋️ Emotional Burnout
⏱️ Decreased Efficiency
🧠 Impaired Decision-Making
🚫 Lack of Self-Care
🌿 Strategies for Overcoming Guilt and Setting Boundaries

To thrive in business, empaths must learn to set healthy boundaries and manage feelings of guilt:

🌟 Acknowledge Your Needs
❌ Practice Saying No
📝 Set Clear Boundaries
🧘‍♀️ Regular Self-Care
🛡️ Use Visualization Techniques
💬 Seek Support
🌸 Feminine Embodiment Practices
🔄 Trauma Release Techniques
🌺 Feminine Embodiment and Trauma Release: My Approach

In my practice, I offer personalized healing sessions and group circles focusing on feminine embodiment and trauma release. These sessions help you reconnect with your body, release emotional baggage, and establish strong, healthy boundaries.

✨ Conclusion

For empaths, learning to set boundaries and manage guilt is essential for maintaining well-being and business capacity. By acknowledging needs, practicing self-care, and implementing clear boundaries, empaths can protect their energy and thrive.

🌟 Staying Grounded with Healthy Boundaries 🌟

When I first started my healing practice, I was so afraid of saying no to my clients and constantly over-giving to make sure they would be happy. This led to burnout, often requiring me to recover for two days after working with a client. Today, I understand this was due to trauma and my anxious attachment style, which is a coping mechanism to avoid rejection or abandonment.

Through years of healing work and extensive knowledge of communication and healthy boundaries, I learned that the way to stay grounded is by having boundaries in place. The first step to having healthy boundaries is coming back into your body and healing the disconnect that keeps you in your trauma response. One effective way to get back into your body is through feminine embodiment work.

Embodiment practices soothe the nervous system, making us less reactive and triggered, and help us become more stable, relaxed, and grounded in our bodies.

Here's a simple practice I teach in the Wild Woman Circle called "Moving What You Are Feeling":

Stand in the middle of your room.
Feel your feet grounded on the floor.
Close your eyes and move with whatever you are feeling, not to make it go away, but to explore it.
By identifying and moving through emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations, our bodies can relax and our emotions can smooth out. We release the emotional baggage we carry – often stored in our hips, shoulders, and jaw. Try moving just your face for five minutes and see what pent-up emotions express themselves.

This practice helps you reconnect with your body and establish the boundaries you need to stay grounded and centered.

Have you heard about feminine embodiment yet?

It’s been gaining popularity in the US, and lately around the world for good reason. For "strong" women like us, it's the gateway to finally relax and receive.

I would like to share a bit more about it with you today:

We're often too much in our masculine. Being constantly in overdrive can lead to burnout and a disconnect from our true selves. Embracing feminine embodiment has helped me, and I think it could help you too!

Here’s why it’s so essential:

👉 Healing and Reconnecting:
Feminine embodiment helps us heal our relationship with our bodies, deepening self-love and confidence. By tuning into our body’s wisdom, we can release stored tension and trauma, leading to greater physical and emotional well-being​.

👉 Enhancing Creativity and Intuition:
When we embody our feminine energy, we unlock our creative potential. This flow is vital for innovation in our businesses, allowing us to approach challenges with fresh perspectives and intuitive insights​​.

👉 Opening Up to Love and Abundance:
One of the most profound benefits of feminine embodiment is how it transforms our relationships. By reconnecting with our feminine energy, we become more open to receiving love and abundance. This shift allows us to attract healthy, loving partnerships and feel deeply held, seen, and heard​.

👉 Balancing Energies:
Many of us operate predominantly in our masculine energy, always doing and controlling. While this is necessary for achieving goals, too much can lead to exhaustion. Feminine embodiment brings balance, allowing us to receive, rest, and rejuvenate​.

Practical Steps:

💃 Intuitive Movement: Engage in intuitive movement to ease and regulate your nervous system. This helps you act from your wild feminine heart instead of from past hurt and emotional residue. It allows you to reconnect to your deep feelings and express them through movement, clearing emotions and enhancing emotional resilience.

💃 Breathwork: Incorporate breathwork into your daily routine. Techniques like diaphragmatic breathing can help you stay grounded and reduce anxiety​.

💃 Emotional Alchemy: Create a sacred space to process your emotions, allowing for emotional healing and resilience​.

If you're feeling the hustle and burnout, I highly recommend exploring feminine embodiment practices. They’ve helped me find balance, creativity, and a deeper connection to myself and my partner. It's also helped me receive instead of hustle. 🌸✨

FREE PRACTICE, it's simple:

💃 𝙁𝙤𝙧 𝘼𝙡𝙡 𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙒𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙣 𝙒𝙝𝙤 𝙃𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙇𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙞𝙧 𝘾𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙎𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙠: Learn to receive love & abundance instead of fighting for it through feminine embodiment practice.

A must for any woman, who is tired of hustling and who wants to attract a present man or have a fulfilling business and relationship.

I thought I was a strong woman, constantly in" go mode", overthinking everything, and struggling to implement all my crazy ideas. In my relationship, I had trouble receiving, was stuck in my masculine energy, always giving direction and providing structure, while he was flowing through the day.

Eventually, I burned out.

I had to learn to receive and let myself be taken care of. I had to find value in being a woman, radiating, and nurturing my home and family with love and creativity. 💖🏡✨

In a world that keeps us in constant overdrive, it's easy to lose touch with our feminine side. 𝙊𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙣 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙢𝙖𝙨𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙮 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙪𝙨 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙪𝙣𝙛𝙪𝙡𝙛𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙙 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙣𝙪𝙢𝙗 𝙩𝙤 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙤𝙬𝙣 𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙞𝙚𝙨. We can't feel pleasure anymore. When we eat, we shove food down instead of enjoying its taste; we have unlearned to be sensual and enjoy life. 🍝🍰

As women, our gift to the masculine is our ability to be radiant and nurturing. But when we stay in our masculine, we can't offer this gift to our partners and often attract very feminine men, who prefer to flow, talk, and indulge instead of challenging themselves and being on purpose.

I see so many women struggling with this.

They sacrifice their sensuality and ability to enjoy life for goals and achievements, and we become unattractive to the evolved masculine. If you are currently in a relationship and want to cultivate your own feminine energy more so your partner can be more in the masculine role, or you want to attract a present, evolved man, practicing feminine embodiment is a must.

When a man steps more into his masculine role, it provides more structure and safety for the woman. This allows her to relax, be more in her feminine energy, and focus on creativity, nurturing, and radiating love, which is what we ultimately want. We want to feel safe. 🌟👩‍❤️‍👨🌸

To shift this, we must return to our feminine nature. This is where feminine embodiment practice comes in. It starts with feeling ourselves, our thoughts, emotions, and physical bodies, and letting go of tension and trauma.

𝙅𝙤𝙞𝙣 𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 8-𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙠 𝙒𝙞𝙡𝙙 𝙒𝙤𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝘾𝙞𝙧𝙘𝙡𝙚® and discover how feminine embodiment can transform your love life and how you show up in your BIZ. Learn to trust your intuition, reconnect with your sensual body, and end the cycle of constant overthinking. Unlock your abundant creative energy. 🌼🧘‍♀️💫

🌟 See Yourself Through the Eyes of Love 🌟

Have you ever wondered why success sometimes feels elusive? For many of us, the journey to visibility and success begins with how we see ourselves. 🌱💖

Growing up, some of us didn't receive the love we needed from our parents—not because they didn't care, but because they too were never taught how to love. We inherited their trauma and self-doubt without even questioning it. 🤔💭

But today, let's make a conscious choice to change that narrative. Start seeing yourself through the eyes of love. Recognize your worth, your potential, and your unique journey. When you love and believe in yourself, you begin to shine. This inner glow radiates outward, attracting the success and visibility you deserve. 🌟✨

Remember, it's never too late to rewrite your story. Embrace self-love, heal from past traumas, and watch as your life transforms. Your success is waiting—it's time to claim it! 🌈🚀

In Each Other's Care: A Guide to the Most Common Relationship Conflicts and How to Work Through Them In Each Other's Care: A Guide to the Most Common Relationship Conflicts and How to Work Through Them

I just had an amazing coaching session with one of my clients, who is feeling overwhelmed and exhausted due to a combination of caretaking, housework, and launching her business.

This leaves her with little time and energy for self-care and managing household dynamics, and her relationship is falling of the back end.

I want to give you a little peek behind the scenes at the progress she's making and what we do together in my 6 months VIP program. Here’s what we’re focusing on:

✨ Finding Balance and Self-Care: We’ve been diving deep into balancing those hectic daily routines and making self-care a top priority. By simplifying tasks, setting achievable goals, and carving out time for joyful activities, we’re creating a routine that supports well-being and thriving.

✨ Energetic Alignment: This is where the magic really happens! Besides applying deep energy healing, we’re weaving in practices like meditation and chakra balancing into her daily routine to keep that positive energy flowing. The goal? Real, transformative changes that boost both personal and professional life, paving the way for financial abundance and more joy.

✨ Family Harmony: Family dynamics can be tricky, but we’re finding the core issues and resolving conflict. We’re working on clear roles and better communication to create a harmonious home. It’s all about fostering healthy communication and improving relationships, so you feel more supported.

✨ Simplifying Life: One of our big focuses is simplifying life to create more ease and joy. By decluttering and organizing living spaces, and implementing daily rituals, we’re setting the stage for a more focused and stress-free lifestyle.

I’m so proud of her progress and super excited for what’s next. If you’re also on a journey to balance life, work, and personal growth, remember to prioritize your self-care and stay aligned with your goals. 💖

If you’re struggling with any of these areas and want some guidance, feel free to send me a DM. I’d be happy to answer your questions and help you get on track! No strings attached. 🌿✨

NIKOLA TESLA ON DISEASES

"Illness comes because of a mental fall. A man should be his own doctor. If he is not calm inside, all his medicines and the best doctors are in vain. 😔

The subconscious of modern man is agitated like a restless ocean with great stormy winds. A subconscious full of impressions makes the soul restless. 🌪

Emotions then boil like a volcanic eruption. Without emotional work, spirituality is just a house of cards.

And what is a man without peace in his soul? 🕊

Separated from God's grace, he tries in vain to find comfort in material things. There is no comfort there, it is a bottomless pit. More, more, give more and finally the void again.

When the soul becomes a calm sea, then healing begins. Remember that, it's the golden rule. The source of most diseases is in the spirit, therefore the spirit can overcome most diseases."

-Nikola Tesla

A client who was struggling with consistency and flow in her business as a healer inspired me to write this blog post.

The Hidden Influence of Ancestral Patterns on Business Success Discover how ancestral patterns impact your business success and break free from inherited limitations for true personal and professional growth.

👩‍💼 The Hidden Influence of Our Ancestors on Our Success 👩‍💼

Ever feel like you're doing everything right but still not seeing the results you desire? More seminars, more business coaching, more strategies—yet you're still in the same unfulfilling place.

Did you know that our ancestors have a huge impact on our success? The truth is, success is a natural result of your own blossoming. You naturally attract what wants to warm itself by your fire. To attract, you need to fill your own space with your light. You have to invite yourself into your own life. However, the DNA and experiences of our ancestors can sometimes put a dent in that process, affecting how we relate to success.

Our ancestors often had no space for self-exploration and personal fulfillment due to the hardships they faced. This lack of personal space and the need to constantly function led many of them to deny their own divinity and purpose. These ancestral patterns impact how we relate to success today. This pattern is illuminated through family constellation work, a powerful tool I use with my clients to make these family patterns visible and resolve them.

In a family constellation session, we uncover hidden family dynamics and patterns that can block our path to success. By recognizing and addressing these patterns, we can transform our relationship with success. For instance, a client of mine couldn't keep up her momentum in business and felt stuck despite being motivated. Through constellation work, we made these ancestral patterns visible, which helped her understand the root cause of her feelings and start to shift her approach to success.

To dive into your purpose, find your place, and be anchored between heaven and earth, you must define your personal space. One way to do this is by creating a power place with flowers, precious stones, or feathers in a circle. Sit in this circle and feel your space. Give yourself permission to protect it. Just like animals mark their territory, you must protect your space.

Protecting your space is crucial because, without it, you feel powerless. This sense of powerlessness extinguishes your creative spark, leaving you unmotivated and stuck. Start with a small personal space that you guard like a lioness. Once you protect your space, you can expand it. You'll get a feel for where you can soften your boundaries. This expansion will invite success naturally. Your space and another person's space can overlap without sacrificing boundaries. This is where you attract clients naturally, fostering genuine connections and thriving communication.

The first step is to drop into your own place and define your space. Need help with this? Reach out, and we'll explore together what that looks like. Take advantage of my free 20-minute "get to know you" call, no strings attached. We'll help you figure out where you are on your journey and your next step.

✨ Embrace your space. Invite success. ✨

Getting ready to do the third online session from my new home. My sacred space is coming along nicely.

Looking forward to working with a client from Getmany this morning to help her with her relationship and a job situation, so she can learn to speak up for herself.

Set up an altar in my new house for my treatment room / office.

This room already had the lightest energy in the home when I moved in.

I raised the energy level with Alpha Chi Feng Shui to match my energy and my work, and I also installed a sun temple with Atlantis Crystals.

What do you think?

Doing puzzles is one of my hobbies. I love putting things in order. How about you?

My new place has a ceiling light.
While it’s nice to have all the light coming in, it also gets quite hot in here in the summer.

Maybe in the winter it’s more useful?

Speaking to the buddha. 😉
We unpacked my healing buddha from Thailand today for my new house.

It was quite a challenge to get it out of the box!
