Love this! You are some I cherish the ability to be deep with, while laughing at ourselves, our own funniness, and always leave with a smile.

Is the first photo from your recent trip??

“I hope people leave spaces I’ve held better than how they arrived. I hope they felt loved by me. I also hope they felt my boundaries, that my sureness of myself empowered them to be sure of themselves too. I hope they remember that it felt honest and true to be in that space with me.”

I loved that part so very much and I can tell you, every single time we meet, I leave better and calmer and more full of peace than when I arrived. I love the “settling in” and grounding we do at the beginning of every session…the stillness of that time is as important as any words spoken during the rest of our time. You hold space for yourself and you’ve taught me to do the same.

I will be eternally grateful that our paths crossed in this sacred space. I’m forever changed because of it.

Love you so much.
