About the Author
My work centers around a simple but powerful idea: many of the patterns people
struggle with are not evidence that something is wrong with them. They are
adaptations created by a nervous system that has been trying to help them
survive stress, pressure, and difficult experiences.
I am a somatic healing practitioner and the creator of the Freedom Formula, a
framework that helps people move out of survival mode and into a life that
reflects who they are. My work blends nervous system science, somatic
practices, emotional processing, and mindset work to help people understand
why they feel stuck and what it truly takes to create lasting change.
Before stepping into this work, I earned my law degree from Harvard Law School
and spent years in high-performing environments where discipline and
achievement were highly valued. From the outside, my life looked successful.
Inside, I was quietly struggling with many of the same patterns my clients now
describe: chronic stress, emotional eating, anxiety, and the exhausting habit
of showing up for everyone else while ignoring my own needs.
Understanding the role of the nervous system changed the way I approached
those patterns. Instead of seeing them as failures, I began to see them as
intelligent adaptations. That realization not only transformed my own life, it
became the foundation of the work I now share with others.
For more than sixteen years I have helped people understand their patterns
with compassion, reconnect with their inner guidance, and build lives that
feel meaningful, aligned, and sustainable. My book, You’re Not the
Problem, grew out of that work and out of a deep desire to help more people
experience the relief that comes from realizing they are not broken.
