My blog celebrates the life journeys of us as women and is intended to inspire female readers to take a leap of faith---to courageously and deliberately seek personal transformation as we move through the various stages of our lives. As Women we constantly desire to know how to develop deep, juicy spiritual, emotional and physical lives throughout our whole lifespan.

What If It's Not Self - Sabotage?
What If It’s Not Self-Sabotage? π€π
So many of the women I work with come to me saying:
“I just need to stop sabotaging myself.”
“I know what I should do… but I never follow through.”
“I always shrink when I’m about to rise.” ππ±
And while it looks like sabotage on the surface —
missing the deadline, ghosting the opportunity, dimming the light —
what’s actually happening is something far deeper… and far older.
This isn’t laziness.
This isn’t lack of willpower.
This isn’t a mindset issue. π«π§
This is loyalty.
Loyalty to the unspoken rules of your family system.
Loyalty to the women who weren’t allowed to speak, rise, rest, shine, or succeed. π©π§π¦π―️
Loyalty to what kept you safe as a little girl in a world that didn’t feel safe. π§Έπ‘️
And unless that loyalty is seen, acknowledged, and released,
it will continue to override your highest intentions.
Because your nervous system isn’t confused — it’s protecting you. π§¬π«
This is the work I do:
Untangling the roots.
Honouring what was.
Liberating what wants to become. πΏπ️
So if you’ve been beating yourself up for “getting in your own way” —
take a breath, and ask yourself this:
Who (or what) might I still be loyal to? π€²❓
You’re not failing.
You’re protecting something that once kept you safe.
But there comes a time when the survival story has to give way to a new one. ππ₯
One where you get to rise — with your whole self intact. πΉ✨
