Whispers of a Warrior
Sometimes, the smallest acts of rebellion change everything.
There’s a moment I return to often—not because it was dramatic or life-altering in an obvious way, but because it drew a quiet line between who I was and who I was becoming.
It happened during what I now call my hurricane season. You know those stretches of life when everything feels urgent, heartbreaking, and spinning completely beyond your control? That was me.
My dad was fighting illness. My son had just been diagnosed with Type ...
Have you ever noticed how your body "remembers" what your mind tries to forget?
There's a reason you get sick after a breakup. Why your neck tightens when you feel unheard. Why your digestion rebels during grief. Why mysterious symptoms flare when you're swallowing words you need to say.
These patterns aren't coincidences. They're not just "stress." They're your body speaking a language you've forgotten how to understand.
Your body is carrying what your mind hasn't processed. Your nervous sys...
Let me tell you a story — because if you’re here, I have a feeling you’ll see yourself inside its edges.
There was a time in my life — before cancer interrupted my path, before diabetes turned me into both warrior and student, before I was navigating chronic pain while raising a child with complex needs — when I was completely untethered from myself.

We’ve remembered who you are—
beyond the caregiving roles that consume you,
beyond the exhaustion that clouds your essence,

We explored posture as a portal to your power. We opened the conversation around boundaries—not as restrictions, but as invitat...
The Invisible Line Between You and Everything Else
And why honoring it might be the most healing thing you do this month.
There comes a point in your healing where doing more stops helping.
Where insight feels heavy.
Where even self-care starts to feel like a task.
That’s usually the moment your system is begging—not for another to-do,
but for a boundary.
Not a hard wall. Not a threat. But a gentle line drawn in sacred self-respect.
Boundaries aren’t punishments. They’re invitations....
The way you carry yourself says more than you think.
You can tell a lot about a person by how they move through the world.
Not by what they wear.
Not by how they speak.
But by the way their shoulders carry what no one else sees.
The quiet rounding of the spine when no one’s watching.
