Many of us have been trained to quiet our voice, quiet our body, stuff negativity away or worse bury it. Living in the world we do with impossible expectations placed on us, this cycle is perpetrated by encouraging us to distract ourselves or check out pretending this pain inside of us does not exist.

We must end this cycle and create a new cycle of healing. My goal is to be that space where you can be you with all the quirks included.
