When you’re in a hard season, the kind you can’t mindset-hack, meditate, or overfunction your way out of, it can leave us feeling isolated and alone. The people around you keep offering advice you didn’t ask for, and while they mean well, they have no idea what you’re really holding.
You’ve been carrying the mental load of your home, your relationships, your work, your kids, your parents, your trauma, your leadership, and your exhaustion. And you’ve been doing it inside systems that were never built with your body, your identity, or your capacity in mind.
You’re not stuck because you’re doing life wrong.
You’re stuck because you’ve been trying to survive without the support you actually need.
You can read all the books, listen to every motivational podcast, and sit in therapy for years… and still feel like nothing is shifting. Not because you’re broken, but because no one can thrive under the bullshit systems and the conditioning you developed just to survive.
This is when women come to work with me, when they’re done trying to white-knuckle their way through a life that keeps demanding more than their nervous system, their bandwidth, or their humanity can actually give. As an applied behavioral scientist, feminist, and autistic mama raising two neurodivergent kids inside the same systems I’m actively dismantling, I built my practice for women who have never felt fully seen or supported in traditional mental health spaces. Modern mental health models weren’t designed to honor women’s bodies, autonomy, or power, so of course you haven’t felt held by them.
Put the silverware away without organizing it.
Let the kids put the dishes away imperfectly.
Use somatic tools to tolerate the discomfort.
