Breathwork has been a game changer in my life.


From Silent to Seen: My Journey Back to Myself

For many years, I lived in the shadow of shame—shrinking myself, staying small, and trying to take up as little space as possible.

I abandoned myself at multiple points in my life. I didn’t trust my voice. I didn’t trust myself. Speaking up felt unsafe, and when I tried, my throat would tighten, my mind would spiral, and I’d be swallowed by self-doubt.

“What could I possibly have to offer?” became the loop I lived in.

Whether I was in an audition room, a gathering, or a workspace, I was terrified to be seen—let alone heard.

And then I found breathwork.

Breathwork cracked my heart wide open. It showed me the emotional weight I’d been carrying and invited me to meet it with compassion. It asked me to stay with myself—to witness, to feel, and to release. It helped me uncover the layers of old stories, unspoken grief, and silent strength buried beneath years of self-abandonment.

It wasn’t easy. This work rarely is.
But breath by breath, I returned to myself.

I began to rebuild trust with my body and my voice. I softened into my truth. I started to speak from a place that felt grounded, real, and wholly mine.

Why I Do This Work

Today, I guide others on their own journey home—to voice, to breath, to truth.

I work with a wide range of clients: artists, entrepreneurs, space holders, and those from marginalized backgrounds who’ve been made to feel small or unseen. People who are ready to stop holding their breath and start claiming their space.

My voice—which once felt fragile—is now the vehicle through which I hold space for others. I lead breathwork groups, facilitate workshops, and support individuals to reconnect with their inner guidance, express their truth, and live more fully from the inside out.

This is the most meaningful adventure of my life.
And I’m honored to walk part of your path with you.
