"A strong, unwanted emotion can feel like a weight, holding you back and getting in the way of the person you want to become. Over time, negative emotions seem to put limitations on your life - what you do, where you go - and your world feels a little smaller. You spend more time dwelling on painful thoughts that leave you feeling stuck, filled with self-doubt and insecurity. Perhaps sad thoughts about the past come back to haunt you, or persistent worries about the future overwhelm you. Perhaps the intensity of your emotions has cost you important relationships or job opportunities."

"I help people find their inner compass, or guidance system. So many people tell me that they: can't reach their goals (health, relationship, career) ; feel stuck in endless negative patterns; or believe they are capable of more, but struggle to share their gifts. Does that sound like you? Many of us base all our decisions on outside authorities/expectations and rarely connect with and consult our own inner compass. We 'go with the flow" and hide our deepest gifts, even from ourselves. But if you aren't calibrated to your own truth, you can't set your GPS."
