Your body knows what your mind hides
Your Body is Always Talking
And It Has A Lot to Say
Your body is always talking to you in the only way it knows how -- by sensation and emotion.
Whether physical illness or emotional pain, your body wants your attention... asking for what it needs.
Somatics - from the Greek “soma” - embraces the totality of who you are: your habits, family history, friendships, spiritual path, shadow, desires... everything that defines you. And it's all stored within.
Why "Health Story"?
Your identity is largely tied up with the “story” your tell yourself.
Heavily influenced by family history and social conditioning,
this story is a false narrative that coerces you to be far different
than who you're meant to be.
Letting go of this story is simple.
It means changing the story you tell yourself.

About Me: Hearing The Voice
I’ll never forget the day I heard The Voice.
“Be of service,” it told me.
I didn’t really understand what it meant. At the time, I was a well-respected healthcare writer who spent a lot of time working solo and thinking about my next story.
But I quickly learned... never ignore The Voice.
This quest actually started many years earlier when I was introduced to Joseph Campbell's "Hero's Journey" through the wonderful documentary "Finding Joe." It then took many years of studying, exploring, and investigating before I finally understood the questions I needed to answer. Despite reading all the books and attending the seminars and retreats, why were people still stuck? How could they actually make lasting changes in their lives? And how could I support them?
I found the answers in the worlds of embodiment and somatics. Together, they resolved all my questions about what people needed most.
My work is founded in a lifetime of health exploration spanning movement, deep listening, presencing, cognitive behavioral therapy, indigenous wisdom, parenting and much more. I’ve prepared my entire life to do this work.
This is my calling.
Experience It. Feel It.
The only way to truly understand this work is to experience it yourself.
