Embodied Wholeness: Living My Values
What do you truly value? And are those values really your own—or something inherited, absorbed, or expected?
I've always had a fiercely Just character. Even as a child, I had a clear, unwavering sense of what felt right and what felt wrong. What was fair and what simply wasn’t. It didn’t always match up with the rules around me—school rules, social expectations, or even what my parents might have hoped for. But this internal compass of mine has been steady and loud.
I’m not entirely sure where it came from. But I know it’s mine.
Living in alignment with that sense of justice and integrity hasn’t always been easy. It means questioning the norm, saying the uncomfortable thing, refusing to tow the line just to keep the peace. It means asking hard questions:
— Where do I spend my money?
— How do I save it?
— Who benefits from my choices?
— Can I give my time to causes I believe in, when I have it to give?
— Can I show up—even in protest—when it counts?
Since returning from Malaysia in 2016, I’ve been rethinking what it means to live a whole life. Not just a busy one. Not just a “successful” one by someone else’s definition. But a life that reflects the values I actually hold dear.
And for me, somatic movement has been an essential part of that process.
Moving from the felt sense of the body allows me to tune into my relationship with the world around me—not just conceptually, but viscerally. It reminds me that I am a living, breathing organism, constantly in motion, in dialogue, in exchange. It teaches me to ebb and flow, to adapt, to listen.
Most importantly, it strips away performance.
It dissolves the pull of the external gaze and invites me back to myself.
To my own intuition, creativity, and spark.
Embodied wholeness, to me, means making sure my actions reflect my ideals. That there's integrity not just in what I believe—but in how I move through the world. Literally.
It’s not perfect. It’s often messy. But it’s real.
And that’s the life I want to keep choosing.
If this resonates with you—and you’d like to begin tuning into your own body, heart, and mind—we can begin this journey together.
Over time, my offerings have evolved to include somatic movement, deep chats, reflection, and connection. Because I know, without a doubt, that discovering what truly matters to you—and choosing to live in alignment with that—is the surest way to live your best life.
(Not the easiest life. It can be messy and complicated.)
But the truest life.
Let’s move, breathe, reflect, and remember what it means to come home to ourselves.
