How I Found This Work— Or Rather, How It Found Me
I’ve always carried a deep, unwavering desire for others to feel seen, heard, and cared for. It was clear from an early age that I would find myself in a helping role — I just didn’t realize it would be something this magical.
For much of my life, I made myself small to allow others to feel big. I buried my emotions and quieted my own voice in order to keep the peace and meet expectations. Over time, I lost touch with who I truly was. I was moving through life based on what society told me I should want — not what actually resonated with my soul.
Everything began to shift the day I experienced the Emotion Code for the first time.
A friend of my mom’s was in the process of getting certified and needed practice clients. I had very little knowledge of any sort of energy work, but something in me said, “Why not?” At the very least, I’d be helping someone else out. I didn’t expect it to do much for me.
But it was so much more than I could have imagined.
That first session opened a door — one that allowed me to uncover the root causes of my anxiety and the patterns I felt stuck in. As I continued working with that practitioner over the following months, I began to feel lighter. My emotional, mental, and even physical health started to shift. It felt like my body and spirit were finally exhaling after years of holding it all in.
At the time, I was in a season of feeling directionless. I was working a 9–5 job in social services — grateful to be in a role that helped others, but felt like I wasn’t helping people in the way I was designed to. I wanted to help people more deeply, but I didn’t know how.
One day, in the midst of all that uncertainty, my mom left a copy of The Emotion Code book on my doorstep. I picked it up and couldn’t put it down. Page after page, something in me lit up. I started practicing what I was learning — first on myself, then on friends and family, and eventually anyone open to the experience.
That was when I knew: this was the work I was meant to do.
With courage and a whole lot of trust, I made the leap — I quit my job without knowing what the next step would be. But for the first time in a long time, I felt aligned, empowered, and ready.
From there, I continued my certification journey by diving into The Body Code, which took my understanding — and my healing — to an even deeper level. I began working not only with trapped emotions but also imbalances in the body’s energy circuits, structural systems, toxins, and more. It completely transformed the way I viewed healing, and gave me even more tools to support others in meaningful, lasting ways.
And that brings me here — the beginning of this new chapter, sharing this work through my own business, offering others the same kind of transformation that changed my life. I’m so grateful for every twist, turn, and leap of faith that brought me here.
This work didn’t just find me.
It brought me home to myself — so I can help others do the same.
With love,
