I knew from a young age that the way I was being conditioned to live as a female in this world wasn’t right. I knew there was more to it all than what my young eyes were shown through the lens of abandonment, neglect, sexual abuse, and shame. Survival patterns began to form early on, putting me in a box of victimhood and not enoughness at the tender age of three. Familial betrayal led to a deep need for external validation and immense confusion around ways to cope and be okay with my life. I learned how to play many roles and pretend that everything was okay. I denied my voice, buried my truth, and gave it all I had to fit in because “Me” was something I’d been taught it wasn’t safe to be. 

Like many other young adults that felt trapped under circumstances, once I had the ability to flee, I did. Only my troubles didn’t stay behind. In attempts to numb and hide from the overwhelming pain inside, I made friends with an eating disorder, alcohol, and various other forms of drugs that gave me a sense of control and left me feeling more acknowledged and accepted by those around me. Through it all, I still had no idea how to accept myself, which reflected in my body as extreme digestive imbalances and depression. 

After years of relying on the ineffectual bandaids of Western Medicine, I began to explore non-conventional, holistic healing techniques such as plant medicine, acupuncture, hypnotherapy, color therapy, shamanism, NLP, energy healing, and more. While all of which supplied their own benefits, I felt far from “healed.” It wasn’t until I participated in a facilitator's course to learn the language of the body that a noticeable glimmer of hope started to make itself known.

I began to grow a relationship with a tiny voice within that I’d heard from time to time throughout my life; a quiet comfort amidst great chaos and inner turmoil. I learned to acknowledge the inner child within me that, for decades, had been bearing the weight of the trauma I experienced early on in my life, holding onto all of that fear, shame, and discomfort in my skin. I learned how the hurt of the inner child communicates through the body and really started to understand the root of my chronic physical pain as well as my mental and emotional dis-ease. 

Through my commitment to nurturing and showing up for my inner child, showering her with the love she had previously been denied and teaching her that life can be a safe place, true healing began to occur within me. Before I knew it, the desire to abuse my body with food and drugs diminished to the point of nonexistence as I realized that fear was no longer driving my life. My new relationship with little me awakened my intuition and connection to my soul, and love became the driver of my life.
