  • If you’ve been told your whole life that you’re beautiful, you’re probably aware of the double-edged sword of it. The “complex relationship” we have with it. The “plight of the beautiful woman” and “the burden.” Not everyone will understand it, be able to talk about it, or hold space for you. You may even feel embarrassed sharing your feelings around it.

    But there is some real suffering and stress and pressure that comes with it, so let’s shine some light on it:

    Does any of this feel familiar?

    Feeling significant fear or stress that you’re going to “lose your looks”, because “of course it can’t last” and since it’s something that’s very valuable about you, find yourself gripping and trying to control it.

    You hold yourself to ridiculously high standards of perfection (but you don’t hold anyone else to those same standards).

    You oscillate between loving your beauty, and consciously or unconsciously self-sabotaging because it’s too much “pressure” to maintain.

    You find yourself swinging between full-on rejection of your beauty and being full-on obsessed with it and doing the most of everything to enhance/maintain it.

    Find yourself minimizing yourself to make others comfortable and safe in your presence. You’ve felt rejection from other girls and women and make yourself smaller and safer and more likable to feel acceptance and closeness.

    You feel guilty or shameful when you aren’t being “perfect” and doing everything possible to preserve your beauty.

    You self-isolate on days you feel unattractive.

    You have a complex relationship with men and find beauty “unsafe” at times from years of being over-sexualized (especially during development).

    It’s your birthright to experience your beauty as amazing, and pleasurable, and just a natural extension of who you are. It’s not everything that you are, but you get to allow yourself to love it, without the sticky, stressful, looming darkness of it.

    I’m here to help you through these challenging feelings and move into your ecstatic true nature of fully enjoying your beauty RIGHT NOW in the present moment and living your VENUS ERA.

    There’s much to be understood, unraveled, and healed in YOU personally in order to start living your fullest expression of your beauty.

    But guess what - it gets to be fun! It gets to feel like a breath of fresh air into your lungs renewing your lease on life and experience in this gorgeous present moment.

    In this episode I share all about your "Venus ERA" - the time when you decide to intentionally infuse beauty into every inch of your life for the pleasure and joy of it, going way beyond your physical appearance.

    Where beauty becomes a lifestyle, and a WAY OF BEING. When it becomes your lens and your viewport. When it becomes your energetic signature, imprint, and legacy. When it becomes second nature to ask yourself “how can I bring even more beauty into this moment?”

    Your Venus era is when you fully understand that this is in fact “your calling” - that your contribution to bringing more beauty into this world through your personal relationship to it, is impactful and generous and HEALING to others. It’s not vapid or indulgent or selfish. It’s inspirational, and you’re creating a ripple effect that will continue on long after you are gone.

    I’m calling this an activation because I want to activate something in you. I want to inspire you and have you realize that ultimately - your VENUS ERA is something you decide is happening, right now, and then you take steps to E M B O D Y IT.

    I see the embodied beauty pillars as the “action steps” - the way to bring this from a “concept” into reality.

    Because we have a complicated relationship to beauty, and a lot of the feelings and choices that we make around it are really from our wounded selves, our fears, and not our empowered, sovereign selves.

    I want you to see these pillars as a way to allow yourself to indulge and amplify that desire you have to be the most gorgeous version of yourself in this lifetime - and also to understand why there is some tarnish on that feeling. Some stress, some ickiness. And how to bring yourself back into the purity and sweetness of your craving for it.

  • This episode is all about:

    - Why you may feel like you’re “doing feminine energy" wrong or don’t resonate with the way it’s depicted in the media.

    - Why you may be holding yourself to toxic beauty standards, and subconsciously looking to appeal to the wounded masculine - perpetuating the cycle of fear and anxiety around beauty and body image.

    - What the Venus lifestyle is truly is all about: infusing beauty into every inch of your life.

    - Why you’re having trouble striking the balance between working and having impact while also “being in your feminine”

    - Why you’re not seeing the universe as a provider and feel insecure about money or resources.

    - Why you struggle with authority, structure, loving self-discipline and boundaries or knowing when and how to turn off for the day.

    - How to work with your energy and ask questions to understand what’s coming up to be healed and shifted.

    - Join the FREE Embodied Beauty Activation and begin to embody the highest physical & energetic expression of your unique beauty, and step into your VENUS ERA right now! Get ready for the vibe shift...

    - How to infuse beauty into every moment and completely shift your vibration and magnetism.

    - How when you care for yourself first, the universe responds differently to you.

  • Believe it or not I don’t care about how “natural” you are


    In this episode we’re exploring the paradoxes we hold within our beauty image:

    - Truthfully, I feel that natural alternatives will always be better for you in the long run-in terms of the literal aesthetic result, but I no longer feel it's my mission to stop you from using Botox. I don't care if you are embracing "unnatural" cosmetic procedures
 all I care about is that you do them from place of self-empowerment, and self-love. Not from your trauma or wounding or external forces.

    - BUT even if you do something from the “wrong place”, there’s so much room for healing and self-connection and growth inside of that.

    - Host a “homecoming“- come home to your body regardless of all your decisions, and loving living there whether or not your home is fully compostable and made of recycled materials or has some vinyl siding and PVC pipes.

    - All women are natural women.

    - How to infuse beauty into your life from a broader perspective vs focusing on your face and body as the primary outlet.

  • I’m back from traveling and have SO MUCH to share. In this episode I give you the download on the travel and the triggers, tests, opportunities and lessons around self-relationship & beauty/body image healing that came through. It was truly expansive and I’m so happy I can share it! Here’s an episode overview:

    - How self-love IS THE BALM. It is the healing salve to all that ails you. How to shift into a greater existence through being more self-loving and making that your lens. Going from comparison and fear/jealousy to a bigger, more expansive and connected existence.

    - How to STOP seeking external validation and begin to become your own source of confidence and security. Shifting your own mood and energy.

    - How you can’t escape your mind, yourself, your mode of operation. All your baggage and patterns and crap will follow you to paradise. But this is great news because your life purpose is buried within it if you can slow down and pay attention.

    - How everyone around you benefits from you taking care of YOU first. Make yourself happy and watch everyone else grow content.

    - You don’t have to be perfect to be an effective entrepreneur. It’s totally okay to not be okay and show up in your business anyway. To be honest about what you’re going through. This makes you MORE relatable, more powerful, more potent.

    - How to honor yourself as a sensitive being when travel gets a bit treacherous and lengthy.

    - When you heal your self-relationship, you heal your ancestors.

    - The power of community, you’re never alone. Whatever the thing you think is personally yours to go through, someone else will benefit from your vulnerability.

  • I can hardly believe that this is the 20th episode of Embodied Beauty! It's a vulnerable, relatable, expansive, deep, rich and juicy one. Possibly one of my favorites ever recorded thus far.

    In this episode I dive into:

    - "The plight of the beautiful woman" who's been raised with a huge emphasis on their physical beauty and how it makes it feel all the more important, fragile, and stressful.

    - Defining and deciding what beauty is for YOU.

    - Enjoying your beauty as your birthright. This doesn't mean strangling it, stressing it, or being "perfect"

    - How it's time to get selfish about your self-love, self-image and beauty/body image. You deserve to celebrate yourself in all aspects. Don't get dragged down by the "flaws" because you're missing out!

    - Loving your ever-changing self.

    - How to disengage from the negative self-talk sob sagas of female bonding and start trail blazing.

    - How to be a true self-advocate.

    - Botox/cosmetic procedures as a "bridge" back to yourself and your own healing. It's never too late to change course.

    - Staying embodied during challenging/confronting situations and crying during sex.

    - About how having a "perfectly positive body image" all the time isn't realistic, or the goal.

  • If you have any TMJ issues, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, jaw pain or bulkiness, this tub-isode (recorded in the tub) is for you. I go into the deeper reasons you might be clenching your teeth at night or experiencing pain. It’s a multifaceted kaleidoscopic approach. WAY more than just addressing your chewing muscles


    There are so many emotional and physical reasons for TMJD (temporomandibular joint disorder). Everything in your body works as a continuous and related whole, nothing ever happens in isolation. Most often it stems from your pelvis alignment, and physical and emotional/energetic restrictions and patterns throughout your system.

    I usually see people recommending deep (often painful) massage of the masseter muscles to “release them”, or even injecting with botox to “resolve” the problem without even looking at a person’s overall alignment and system. This fails because it puts your body into defense mode and even makes things worse.

    If your jaw is tight and locked up there is an important, protective reason for it.

    If you’re ready to begin your TMJD healing today here is your guide:

    One, listen to this episode

    Two, access my ultra juicy jaw/pelvis integration class for relief and transformation.

    You can do this by:

    A) joining the Inner Beauty Circle Membership to access this class and SO so much more for only $11.11/month (cancel anytime) ~ the best deal ever.

    B) Purchase the class outright for $55

    Or, three: Schedule a virtual (or in-person) healing session with me for remote cranial sacral healing, personalized guided massage, and movement.
