I recently turned to the folks inside Anchored to ask them if there was an episode or a set of episodes of the podcast that were emblematic of the Anchored journey. Over and over again, the resounding answer was that they didn’t realize they were in a self-abandonment cycle until they joined, and I’m guessing…

Anchored is the space for me and my clients to go deep. I bring my training in somatics (or body-based practices) and mindset coaching to our weekly calls. This way, my clients can feel like every week of their six months inside Anchored is completely life-changing. We had the most epic coaching call the other…

Receiving support, kindness, love, and care and really letting it in has been the deepest work of my lifetime. As a human with emotional outsourcing habits, which often looks like living from a sense of unworthiness so many of us are subconsciously guided by, it can feel extremely challenging to receive good things. If you…

I’m delighted to bring you an interview this week with one of my recent Anchored graduates, Ruth Duren. Her transformation is nothing short of mind-blowing, and I love sharing empowering stories just like Ruth’s because I know first-hand how lonely and exhausting it can feel living neck-deep in emotional outsourcing.  If you’re living with codependent,…

Are your emotional outsourcing tendencies standing in the way of relating to yourself and others in a different way?  In this capitalist, white settler colonialist framework we’re living in that teaches us we should compete with each…

There’s a powerful story within most of us that says we’re succeeding when we’re happy, and failing when things feel challenging. If you’re moving your life forward, i.e. doing something that is worthy of a shiny gold star, you’ll get an unequivocal celebration from society. On the other hand, if you’re in a moment of…

Today, we’re exploring a topic that is near and dear to my heart: somatics. Somatic practices have been so powerful in my life. It’s what I credit the most with helping me find healing from my own emotional outsourcing, and the stress, distress, and trauma that I’ve experienced in my life and body. Somatic practices…

On average, humans think 50-80,000 thoughts a day. Luckily, most of them don’t reach our level of consciousness, but those that do have a significant impact. The things we learn as kiddos, and the things we hear over and over become our belief system, and most of us walk around believing that the stories inside…
