This episode explores my journey through anxiety, years of depending on Xanax, and a fear of flying that kept me grounded for nearly two decades. It's about how the right practices can help us find our way out of patterns we thought we'd carry forever.

Explore how Breathwork, walking meditation, and time in nature slowly built the foundation I needed.

• Playing Native American style flute and learning to make mistakes without shutting down
• How anxiety shaped my body and my life before I understood what was happening
• Discovering breathwork in 2019 and what it opened up
• Qigong, walking meditation, and rewilding my mind through time in nature
• Stepping away from Xanax in late 2024 after thirty years
• What self-care can actually looks like when it includes both tenderness and courage

PRACTICE: Begin with something small. A breath deep into your belly. A slow mindful walk. A warm bath that helps your body soften. These are simple things that don't ask you to perform, only to listen.

WORK TOGETHER: If something here resonated and you're curious about working together, I offer exploratory calls. We look at where you are, what you're navigating, and whether breathwork or embodied practices might be the right support for your path.
