Habitual Stuff

(mindsets, self-sabotage)

Addiction is an intertwining of untruths, fear, loss,

unresolved grief and numbing.

​

Loss is inevitable and when it shows up it can leave us feeling unmotivated, alone, overwhelmed and unworthy. When this happens we find ourselves seeking fillers or a quick fix to ease pain or numb feelings. Often times these unhealthy habitual choices lead to addictive thinking, which can and often does result in addictive behaviors.

 

Addiction IS NOT JUST an unhealthy relationship with a chemical based drug and alcohol. Truth is, most folks are addicted to something. So you're not into drugs or alcohol?

Other drugs of choice look like: sex, shopping, social media, cell phones, work, toxic relationships, food, self-image, video games, anger, rescuing/saving, self-sabotage, unhappiness, people pleasing... for starters.

 

Regardless of our drug of choice, the addiction is rooted in LOSS or "a void."

Willingness, accountability, and Self-Kindness accompanied with a healthy commitment

and realistic plan of action are the primary tools you'll need to begin building a happier, healthier self. Is it easy? Not always. Is it worth it? Just ask my clients.

Loss & Grief

2-05-DSC_0421 (2).jpg

Loss is what we experience - Grief is what we feel. 

​Grief is anchored in loss.

Loss can be from any experience or age.

Loss can be subtle or hit with full force.

Loss can be defined as physical death or a loss of:

identity, security, trust or voice.

It can be found in retirement, divorce, diagnosis and adoption.

Loss of independence, a pet, childhood trauma

or maybe you just feel "Meh" and not quite sure why.

​

Get cozy with identifiers like Emotional Intelligence,

Self-Kindness and The Littles.

Connecting the dots helps make sense of feelings,, beliefs and pattern repeats. 

Pain and disconnect quickly become our normal

and bully our well-being.

Commitment to the process positions you to pull from new skill-sets and navigate the expected and unexpected obstacles with patience, self-kindness and understanding.

Effective Communication & Emotional Regulation

Emotional Regulation: Do you or someone you love slip into anger, defending, a need to justify thoughts, words or actions. Become activated (triggered), emotional. Would you like to learn a skill set to assist you in staying plugged in to the moment and conversation?

Effective communication: An invitation to show up unarmed, with no expectation of the outcome yet equipped to hold healthy dialogue. Do you recognize when you are listening to "reply," rather than listening to "hear" what's actually being shared. 

Commitment to the process positions you to pull from new skill-sets and navigate the expected and unexpected obstacles with patience, self-kindness and understanding.

We can ALL learn to maintain healthy, non-aggressive dialogue

when we "choose" to show up willing & aware. 

​10% of conflict is a difference in opinion.

The remaining 90% is a result of tone and non-verbal expression.

The Littles

The YOU, you never outgrew

Little(s) resides deep within our adult self. Littles are the residual energy of emotional pings throughout life.

We're emotionally, mentally, physically even spiritually pinged at several ages.  

​

Anxiousness, helplessness, frustration, feeling overwhelmed or full of shame are just a few of their feelings. These physical and emotional messengers travel upward as our resting littles struggle to feel safe with a false sense of protection.

We bring them along as we grow.

Do you recognize how they present in your adult life?

Passive aggressiveness, manipulation, anger, defensiveness and shame, shyness, sarcasm, humor, co-dependency, hyper independence.

 

Even the healthiest folks find themselves in stagnant, toxic waters from time to time. We bring a part of our past into everything we do; our giggles and grins, our pensiveness, our unresolved grief/loss and our emotions.  At any point in our relationship we can become activated by one or any of our “unpacked baggage.” 

​

Left unaddressed they amplify. At the core we crave very similar things when it comes to feeling accepted, respected, heard, validated and loved.

​

Reviewing our trigger history affords an opportunity to recognize self-sabotaging or habitual behaviors. During your sessions you'll discover tools that will enable you to continue and maintain healthy, effective communication, boundaries, while breaking long standing cycles of personal and professional destruction.

 

You'll learn to re-frame the fragmented pieces and reintroduce your little to your big. Easing into acceptance, fun, creativity and a childlike joy - perhaps something

you've never experienced.

Commitment to the process positions you to pull from new skill-sets and navigate the expected and unexpected obstacles with patience, self-kindness and understanding.

Empowerment & Confidence

Searching for "Enoughness?" Well good news, it's been in you all along! 

Often we adopt other folks beliefs along our journey.

Sometimes those folks are our closest friends and family. The kicker... their beliefs have nothing, nada, zilch to do with us!

​

When we choose (consciously or otherwise) live with such limitations, they manipulate and navigate our course sometimes onto a path of self destruction.

Who has time or energy for that?! 

Together we can reconnect you with what invites health & happiness

back into your life. YOU are worth it! 

End of Life Doula

End-of-life-care-course-product_edited.jpg

Our society hasn't yet created space or a comfortable understanding around

death and actively dying.   

As an End of Life Doula I work with individuals and families to understand on a deeper level the preparation, phases and needs when one is preparing to transition from this world to their next. This can be educating folks on how to hold space for their loved one while also taking of themselves mentally, emotionally and physically. Understanding emotions, triggers, collective grief and at times unpleasant emotional markers depending on family dynamics. 

 

All too often individuals leave this world unable to clearly express or advocate their final wishes. My role it to create clarity around full circle transitioning from Wills, Power or Attorneys, Medical POA, DNR, Last Rites, Burial vs. Cremation, funeral vs. Celebration of life to the final stages of what to expect when you

( or your loved one) is actively dying. educating on how the body

begins the process of shutting down, what to expect as the body releases and

let's go. In addition, working with family/friends to better understand, what their options are for next steps, ensuring their loved one's wishes and life are honored.

​

I offer education for families on how to create sacred space for your loved one to pass through. I often sit with clients as they approach and pass through their 11th hour. My belief is that most of us come into this world with some degree of celebration. No one should leave this world alone. Holding space for those leaving allows them to be honored in the most humble and sacred way.

 

In addition, having agency over how you leave this world allows one the

ability to express their needs, set expectations and boundaries

around what's most important to you.
