Healing the internalized shame around my seggsuality was not an overnight journey, but here are 4 things that made it a whole lot easier 😉

👀 Curiosity: instead of judging what was coming up for me, I got super curious. I started to actually question where these deeply rooted beliefs came from…were they ever mine to begin with? Were they even true? By viewing the shame through a lens of curiosity, I created wayyy more space & capacity in my nervous system which was 🔑 in healing it.

🥰 Compassion & Self Love: the journey of accepting and embracing my seggsuality was challenging af…but you know what made it even harder? Being overly critical of myself. When I shifted the way I spoke and interacted with myself and set the intention of being my own best friend instead of my own worst enemy….everything changed. Taking some time to be with my inner child, while holding and healing aspects of her heart I had previously abandoned, she slowly grew more confident. As a result of this love, layers of her shame began to fall away. 

🧚🏻🧜🏽‍♀️🧞‍♀️Community: surrounding myself with humans who I could be honest with and who loved and embraced every aspect of me, helped me feel more safe, regulated and connected within myself. Being able to relax and just be who I was, while not having to prove or defend myself, allowed me to prioritize healing these parts of me that were longing for safety & support.

✨Somatic Work: Getting out of my head and into my body allowed me to identify where my body was holding onto tension, shame, frustration and anxiety and finally release it. As a result, I am able to be all of me without all of the guarding + armoring that was preventing me from being in my heart & feeling connected to my power.

Inside of my signature group coaching, I help queer people transform the shame they have around their seggsuality so they can live their most empowered, awakened and authentic lives that feel f*cking amazing.
