Befriending A Broken Heart
I recently experienced the reopening of a wound in my heart. Nothing overly dramatic happened. No major further betrayals or abandonment. But, around and around the spiral we go, and I guess it was time for me to come around again to my broken heart. It’s been quite unexpectedly intense, this...
-
Sober Spirituality
I have a poet’s Soul. I want to go deep. I have always profoundly felt life. I have always wanted to make beautiful things because it feeds my being and for no other reason. At 17 years old I got a tattoo that says, “you make your own reality” in latin. 21 years ago I was already aware I was a...

The Mother Continuum
**this is an adaption of piece I wrote in May 2024 on Mothers’ Day. It’s updated and tweaked to include new ideas, thoughts, perspectives I’ve had since then. Hope you enjoy this version on Mothers’ Day 2026 Today, on Mothers’ Day, (and honestly all my days) I have been thinking about our...
-
Motherless to Mothered
I woke up at 5am this morning unable to turn my mind off and go back to sleep. Thoughts and feelings of rage, helplessness, heartbreak, and deep, deep concern for humanity swimming in my mind. I am writing this maybe a little more activated than I would normally would write something for the…

Emotional Eating, Honoring Our Needs, & Our Holy Bodies
A popular spiritual teacher, Mami Onami, recently wrote an article about how she identified, and has subsequently stopped; “emotional eating.” She also posted on instagram about how all spiritual practices praise “fasting.” And how using food ‘as relief’ makes you fat. I have been enjoying...

A Wrinkle in Time, Recurring Symptoms and Retracing
Last Friday I came down with quite an intense cough; tons of congestion, runny nose, sore throat, and general malaise. When I was 8 years old I started to come down with repeated respiratory infections. I would get these epic sore throats and coughs. I would cough all through the night, unable to...

Is There Such a Thing as Eating Too Much Fat?
Is there such a thing as eating too much fat? I know the dietary fat conversation has gotten a little confusing. I thought fat was good? I thought we needed all the animal fats for the nutrient density? I thought we needed it for our hormones? I thought I should put enough butter on my bread I…

"The Personal is Political"
I have been circling around, feeling into, digesting, metabolizing, holding in my prayers the events happening in Iran and Minnesota in my own way over the last few weeks. I do not consume news on a regular basis through any channels (other than reading my local newspaper weekly) because: 1. I…

Awakening is Painful
“There is no coming to consciousness without pain.” - Carl Jung I’m writing this in the first few days of 2026. It has not been an easy transition. I haven’t had anything drastic externally happen to me or my family, although I have had two very tragic events happen to people adjacent to me. My...

The Strength of Women
My Recent Experience Over the weekend, I spent 4 nights in Mexico participating in Moondance with over 300 other women. Moondance is an indigenous ceremony where women opt to not sleep, fast, and dance and sing under the full moon for 4 nights. There are a lot of other aspects and details to it,...
-
The Things that Scare You
I am about to embark on a great adventure. Eight nights away from my girls and husband. Traveling internationally alone. A ceremony that involves days and nights of not eating, not sleeping, and lots of sweating. As I sit here staring at my mostly packed suitcase full of camping paraphernalia and...
-
Introducing: ReMothering
It is with great tenderness and genuine humility that I would like to introduce the new title and energy of this space: ReMothering. Up until now this publication has been called Matriarch, which is a powerful word and symbol. Matriarchal energy is compelling, intense, passionate, and refined....
-
True Humility
I have been contemplating the real meaning of humility. I see such a lack of genuine humility in the wellness/personal development spaces. As a provider in this space, especially on social media, there is an omnipresent drive to position yourself as the one who ‘knows.’ You need to have a hook— a...
-
Instagram, Integrity, and Narcissism
I have been taking a social media break over the summer. It’s been about 2 months I’ve intentionally not engaged with social media. I go on to check my messages and respond to things once in awhile, but other than that I am not on it. For someone who spent the last 10 years (with one 6 month…

Apathy is the Refusal to Suffer
I have been stalled in my formal writing. I write furiously in my journal. Producing pages of nonsensical dialogues with my many selves and internal voices. I write out my dreams in painstaking detail. Pouring over them, trying to unravel and unwind the messages my unconscious Soul is…

What Am I in Service To?
For over a decade I have been sharing my life and my work on instagram. I have slowly been coming to terms with the truth instagram it is no longer a place I want to spend a lot of attention and energy. There are so many reasons for this, and most of them you’ve probably heard a million times, so…

The More You Hold, The More Structure You Need
One thing I learned early on in motherhood is that I needed more structure in my life if I was going to hold the responsibility of motherhood in a way that didn’t fully drain me. I think of this similarly to if you wanted to lift (or “hold”) more weight than you have previously at the gym, you...
-
A Nourishment Manifesto
I wrote a Substack post about what nourishment really takes and then I made a little video over on instagram showing what I do to nourish myself in a day. I received a lot of really good questions and comments about what came up for people seeing the practical ways I center nourishment in my…

I Am Not the Best at Anything
I am not ‘the best’ at anything. To say that isn’t a very smart ‘marketing strategy’ on my end. We are supposed to claim our expertise. To exude authority. To share things with the certainty of a herd of elephants. To lay out a program with the exact 5 step approach to save your life. There are…
more -
The Still Point
I don’t know what to call the journey I am on. I’ve been writing about it for years at this point. Is it a spiritual awakening journey? Is it a personal development journey? Is it the journey into motherhood? Is it a body or healing journey? Is it my online journal? At this moment I’m inclined to...

Lessons from the Flu
Modern life tends to make people soft in the places we should be tough and tough in the places we should be soft. We have endless OTC drugs to make simple illnesses like the flu more bearable. And trust me, after being fully incapacitated for 3 days with the flu, it is not pleasant in anyway…

Becoming Less Available
The end of 2024 for me has brought with it many endings and therefore new beginnings. A big overarching theme is a deep reckoning with how available I have been. I wrote more about this here. On a macro level I can see how I have associated my deservingness of love and my availability. The more...
-
I Trust Humanity
As I’ve been watching and experiencing the fall out and division surrounding the results of the United States election I have had this resounding truth about myself settle in: I trust humanity. In a world where the places we are different are constantly being highlighted, we have to remember to...
-
The Mature Feminine Loves The Masculine
This piece has been percolating for a long while. This is an invitation into a new or deeper experience of what I am calling; Divine Union, or the aligned relationship between the Feminine and Masculine energies within us and outside of us. As I repeat again and again, I am in service to The...
-
Harshness, Radical Responsibility, and The Power of Softness
There is a punishing harshness I want to unpack in the health and wellness world. I see so many female influencers in this space peddling punishment as virtue and unnecessary harshness as ‘facts.’ I see ‘get-your-s**t-together-you-lazy-f**k’ energy being sold as radical responsibility. Just to be...
-
The Crucible of Gaining Weight
Last night, I saw a male spiritual teacher’s post that stated: “fat people are untrustworthy.” He went on to claim that because excess weight is a result of “unmetabolized trauma” and “emotional numbing” fat people are avoiding “a necessary transformational crucible” (that would result in weight...
-
The Wound of "I Am Alone"
It’s really interesting that as I prepare to hold a retreat experience called VILLAGE, I am being called deep into my wound of aloneness. From the outside, I’m not sure I look like someone who has a core wound of aloneness. I have community, family, friends and, for the most part, function quite...
-
The Umothered Mother
I awoke this morning after just 5 hours of sleep unable to fall back into a peaceful slumber. The stars were calling me. Some people might call this anxiety, but I have come to know it as purely energy that wants my attention. It is just a little buried underneath the static layer of daily tasks...
-
Returning to Our Humanity
Over the past few weeks, I have been in some deep portals of healing personally. Whenever I hold a new frequency in service, like my VILLAGE retreat that I’ve been promoting, I am simultaneously served the medicine of it. The places in my life where I am not in integrity with the lessons and…

What Do Metabolic Wellness, Family, and Healing All Have in Common?
There are a few threads that have been really present in my awareness lately: * The metabolic health crisis we are currently experiencing in the US and a lot of western countries. * The importance of reverence for family as a key to humanity’s legacy. * Healing as the expansion of our range of...

The Manufactured Intensity of Life
As my girls get older and we move further away from that tender, tender infancy phase, to the phase where they can communicate, entertain themselves a bit, and generally need less from me, I am struck by how much less time we have together. I am struck by how the days fly by and blur.. ..how...

Divine Union Q + A Podcast
Hello loves, This is very special and near and dear to my heart email because I’m releasing a podcast I recorded with my husband during the celebration of our 10 year wedding anniversary! We told the story of our relationship (highlights and lowlights) as well as answered the audience questions I...
-
Divine Union, but make it practical replay
Hello love, I’ve been talking a lot about family embodiment, intentional parenting and partnership, divine union on a practical level, orienting to feminine nourishment as a family, and the right relationship between the Masculine and Feminine over on my instagram stories today. I've put a call…

Bodies, Beauty, and Choosing the Human Mess
This piece has been percolating for a long time. I’ve been in active, conscious, non extractive participation with my creative process long enough that I know better than to rush something that is percolating and gestating. But I’ve been watching this one take form. When something wants to be...
-
Making Time for the Body
This last week I’ve been on what I am calling my “body love vacation.” I took 6 nights to simply be with my body and listen. The amount my body has changed and been through in the last 5 years is really mind blowing. Two pregnancies and fully natural physiological births, co-sleeping with babies...
-
Choose Your Teachers Wisely
The programming to be a good person runs deep. Our parents were programmed and they programmed us with things like “Be polite!” “Be nice!” “Include everyone!” “Don’t stare!” In my childhood and even still in a lot of ways, it’s, “Don’t be so opinionated, big, inconvenient, needy.” “Don’t take up…

Mothers, Fathers, and Creation
I wrote the lower part of this quickly on my instagram stories yesterday during the times I had to wait for the dentist to come in and check me at my appointment. I like to share how real-life my expression is. I am deeply committed to cultivating my creativity daily. I journal pages and pages. I...
-
Earth Day Message
For me every day is earth day. She is my greatest comfort and my greatest inspiration. We are all cells within the being that is Gaia. This may sound woo woo or esoteric but to me it actually feels like the real-est thing I’ve ever known. She is our Mother. We are her children. The very matter of...
-
The Wisdom of Weight
*I shared this on Instagram a couple days ago and am resharing here because it’s gotten a lot of action and I’m announcing a free class I’m teaching tomorrow. I got a question from a follower yesterday, “why are we still fat when we eat well and move our bodies?” This question has been the source...
-
Beauty Trends and Reverence for Our Tissue
Current beauty trends strike me as some of the best examples of the collective’s loss of the ability to think from a place of commonsense. Someone who is willing to inject their body with “fillers” or poisonous substances on a regular basis or slice into their precious tissue for any reason that...
-
An Easter Message
Today is the day we know as Easter. I suspect if you’re following me here; it isn’t news to you that most of the collective symbols of Easter and possibly even the resurrection story itself, stem from pre-monotheistic religion or pagan rituals and iconography. The Easter egg? A pagan sign of...
-
Listening to the Body Requires Attunement to Truth
I want to tease out some concepts around “listening to your body” and what that actually means. I am a proponent of listening to your body. All of my work with my clients and my students revolves around teaching people to listen to their bodies. In my nutrition work I guide people into a...

Gratitude Practice Day 6/30 - Bowspring
*I have been writing daily posts on my instagram sharing what I am deeply grateful for in my life as a 30 day practice for a program I am in. This particular post just wanted to be way longer than instagram can hold so I’m sharing it as an article on here. The journey I have been on with my body...

What it Takes to Invest In Yourself
For the last 2 weeks I have been in a forced pause because I’ve been sick and my kids have been sick. A part of my mind really did not like this. I am smack dab in the middle of promoting one of the highest stakes things I’ve ever promoted, my retreat SAVOR, and I have been left exhausted…
more -
Our Body is Our Greatest Ally
We have been programmed to believe that our bodies are not to be trusted. We collectively believe our bodies are fickle, prone to break and get sick, full of unruly needs for food, rest, and sex. We collectively believe we need to default to someone else to tell us what is wrong with us and what…

Your Full Nourishment Requires More than You Think
What is required for you to live from a place of overflow? For you to be fed, full, nourished? What would you need to feel like you had the capacity to be generous with your love and your being? I guarantee it’s a lot more than you think or want to admit. If you think sneaking in a hot bath on a...
-
The Real Life Sexy
A woman in her true power is a woman in her sex. For a woman, these two things cannot be separated. True power is not domination or force, it is innate. It is the thing that just is. In this sense, my power doesn’t diminish your power. Me becoming more powerful does not mean you need to become…

Mature Feminine Responsibility Just Is
Responsibility is a word that typically can send people in one of two directions: * Victimization/Resentment: Responsibility takes something from me. I resent how much I have to hold. I feel bitter about the amount of responsibilities I have. * Self-Punishment/Martyrdom - I need/should/have to do...
-
What is here for me?
I have been taking my time processing what is happening in the world right now. I have been taking in what I can while staying grounded and rooted. I’ve been in a pressure cooker of personal stuff and intense emotional waves for the last couple weeks, as I know a lot of people are. As a person…

The Mature Feminine The World Needs
In the spaces I hang out in, there is this kind of return back to traditional ways of living. Some examples are: growing your food, raising your own meat and eggs, valuing local food, building tight knit community, birthing babies at home with midwife or free birthing, spending more time with…
