WHY TRUST ME?
I grew up watching The Neverending Story at the afterschool program and thought the princess was the prettiest thing I'd ever seen. I'd dream about jumping into book pages & becoming part of the story. I believed the story living inside the paper was real, tangible, shapeable. Then I got bigger, and the thought process stayed.
Near the end of my time at as a reporter at FOX Business, I started showing up wearing glittery headbands on my forehead (call it a small protest). A few years after my parents died I started traveling solo in a van writing whimsical poetry from my laptop that had a “live a good story” sticker and flying like Tinker Bell (with my skydiving parachute).
I have taken endless chances and rewritten my story a dozen times. I believe I can change my story with my own words. AKA write my dreams into existence. AKA reality hop.
And I want to teach you how to do it too because I believe creativity is one of the universe’s core life forces, alongside love. Creativity is evolution. Creativity is invention. Creativity is nurturing. And when we combine creativity and courage, we are unstoppable.
why it works
Upping our capacity to bold brave things is a slow burn. It can’t just be learned by one tandem skydive or a one-week solo trip. Those can absolutely be catalysts to help someone awaken from slumber, but sustainable courage comes from adapting a ritual of risk in our lifestyle.
When we’re taking a thousand small steps that over time transport us to a mountaintop that we look out upon and think “damn I did that.” When we’re leaning into practices and tools that help our minds and bodies feel safe in the unknown.
My Process
Step 1
Kill Your Darlings
Shed what is no longer serving you. Identify your blockages, what’s holding you back from achieving your outlandish goals and dreams. You’ll be given tools to practice release.
Step 2
Gene Key Activation
This is where we get woo woo. Introduction to the Gene Keys and extraction of your personalized sequence and birth chart to explore your goals & dreams within the context of your divine purpose.
Step 3
Reality Hopping
Implement actionable steps to expand your horizon & move toward manifestation. This is a practical and sustainable method that will teach you exactly how to shift your day-to-day toward more audacious long-term visions.
Step 4
Risk Training
A creative rewiring of your brain for risk and a tangible reprogramming to prepare your body to handle bold action. You’ll lay a solid foundation of courage that you’ll carry with you through life.
It’s Time
to break the patriarchal chains, imposter syndrome and limiting beliefs that have kept you from the entirety of your potential
You’ve worked so hard growing a family and career but are stuck at some invisible level of mediocrity that’s stopping you from ascending to lucrative and fulfilling new portals. That internal tension is eating you alive inside and may be spilling out into your personal life. With the right tools and support, you’re certain the skin you’ve long outgrown can be shed and your wildest, truest and most magnetic self set free.
This isn’t just a set-it-and-forget self-paced course. It’s a cellular recalculation, a brain rewiring, a key to safely and securely access the Great Unknown where your juiciest visions sit on thrones.
Once you’ve danced with Fiery & Alive, soul dreams that once felt impossible will come alive and you’ll be empowered to sashay toward them with the confidence. You’ll strut as a woman who remembers who the fuck she is; who courageously lurches toward her desires, grounded in her limitless potential.
You'll no longer allow upper-management or other misinformed characters crush your ideas and genius. You’ll grab opportunities with two hands instead of letting the things you know you deserve pass through your fingers. You'll be impossible to contain.
We Have to stop apologizing
Ignite Your Kundalini
Too often women apologize for simply existing. We feel like we can’t make bold moves because we lack the permission and conviction to be courageous. But here’s the Big Secret: Taking risks isn’t only the business of stock traders and skydivers. It’s a lifestyle that can be cultivated in a creative and sustainable way.
Fiery & Alive not only reignites your flame, it keeps it burning so that you can lurch toward your dreams in a manageable way. It not only gets you thinking about risk differently, it completely shifts your relationship with how you approach challenges.
We will use Kundalini yoga to uncoil the divine feminine energy that’s been dormant at the base of your spine. This awakening will jolt your subconscious into remembering that the same energy that gives births to universes and all of life also flows through you. At long last you’ll be reconnected with your wild, unapologetic source power.
You will end the program with reignited confidence and creative power to ask for what you want. You’ll be jolted into alignment with your highest self. You’ll be able to ask for the raise, leap into the side hustle, leave the relationship that’s been weighing you down. Step with ease into the tantalizing unknown without fear debilitation.
You’ll remember all the creative ideas you once dug into a time capsule as a child to be forgotten by layers of societal distraction. You’ll be pushed into forward motion. You’ll be five espresso shots of life deep after a long slumber of self-doubt and censorship.
poetry as spellcasting
Write Your Dreams Into Existence
This is not just a set-it-and-forget program. This is a deep excavation of your dreams by tapping into your subconscious through writing.
Did you know?
Writing poetry has been proven in neuroimaging studies to improve introspection, inner-dialogue, and emotional processing.
When focused on the poetry writing process you are participating in an active meditation, where you’re tuned in to both your emotions and the present moment in an inquisitive mindfulness.
Poetry increases emotional granularity, or the ability to decipher between subtle differences in emotions. Poets naturally learn to connect descriptors and meaning to feelings. Studies show this practice improves stress management and helps people better cope with emotional discomfort.
Poetry has also been called the soul’s language. It has a direct line to the subconscious through its use of metaphor and imagery that act as a bridge between thoughts we can’t fully grasp and our conscious awareness. Poetry relies on symbolism, making it easier to excavate abstract thoughts from our deeper mind.
Studies show poetry activates the default mode network, the system that powers daydreaming, contemplation and memory.
Interestingly, its ambiguity is also exactly why poetry is such a great tool for risk training. You’ll be able to walk through the proverbial fire of your fears without disassociation. This makes it much more likely that the impact will stick.
Here’s the big secret
You don’t need to be objectively “good” at poetry to benefit from poetry.
You don’t need to be working on a masterpiece in order to be present and trigger the functions in your brain responsible for introspection and imagination. You don’t need to be Rumi to experience poetry as a tool for stress relief and manifestation.
That’s why I’ve incorporated poetry into every layer of Fiery & Alive. The program is as much a tool for accessible risk-taking as it is a poetry expression class.
We will use metaphorical poetry to release our blockages and fears. Write with juicy imagery and complete clarity about the women we’re becoming. On the menu will be a smorgasbord of open-ended prompts to pull out your desires, loose-guideline poetry to help you tackle specific emotions through a soft container, and mad lib-style fill-in-the-blanks.
Poetry is accessible in Fiery & Alive. And it’s oh so good for you.
what to expect
5 Weeks of ALCHEMY
This isn’t just a self-help book compiling success stories and telling you to be a boss bitch. This isn’t a coaching “guru” sitting atop carefully curated life coaching templates or a man telling you to just soak in all that fear and jump off the cliff anyway.
This is my own personal experience in taking big and small leaps, and overcoming roadblocks along the way. This is an immersive program taught through a uniquely creative approach that manageably propels you into stretchiness.
We clear the muck from our paths so that we can stretch our arms toward our juiciest visions. When we ignite our creative fire, we reignite our power. Fiery & Alive is as much creativity kindling as it is a tool to increase courage and clarity so better realities can manifest.
Here’s a week-to-week breakdown
We’ll have weekly group live calls at a day and time that’s most convenient for our particular group that will include meditations, visualizations and writing prompts.
The rest of the program will live in the Circle community platform, where you’ll be able to access our nourishing community and course resources such as workbooks, pre-recorded lessons, and visualizations.
Since play is imperative to risk-taking and ensuring that our expanded courage sticks, each person will also receive two 1:1 with me
Week 1
Landing in the experience with an opening call that includes visualization, somatic meditation and prompts. Intro course material.
Weeks 2 & 3
We’ll dive into Kill Your Darlings, a writing principle I’ve adapted to The Risk Ritual that’s all about shedding what is no longer serving you. You’ll identify blockages, the things holding you back from achieving your outlandish goals and dreams, and practice release through meditations, poetry exercises and prompts.
Weeks 4 & 5
We’ll introduce the Gene Keys and discuss spiritual concepts such as how nonattachment leads to freedom and heart-based purpose propels society. We’ll analyze our personal Gene Key chart so that we can begin to excavate our soul’s higher purpose and how that aligns with our dreams and journey through life so far.
*The gene keys are magical spirit downloads developed by poet Richard Rudd that interweave DNA science, astrology, and the I Ching (ancient Chinese text of yin & yang).
We’ll swap out the group call in Week 5 for 1:1 calls, where we will go over your custom Gene Key chart and map out your near- and long-term goals, path, purpose and dreams.
Weeks 6, 7, 8
Our focus shifts to Reality Hopping, the visualization and framework I developed to take actionable steps toward expanding our horizon and moving toward manifestation.
You’ll learn how to manageably shift your day-to-day toward more audacious long-term visions and practice the concept through somatic meditations, kundalini yoga, metaphorical poetry exercises and creative writing prompts. You’ll be empowered to take chances and thank yourself for the courage, no matter the outcome.
Weeks 9, 10, 11
Over this final increment of Fiery & Alive, we’ll get deep into rewiring our brains for risk and empowering our bodies to do hard things through creative simulation, visualization and somatic journeys. We will learn how the brain processes risk and creatively throw ourselves into the proverbial fire through metaphorical poetry and prompts that will be custom designed for your unique goal.
Our bodies will be preparing to hold additional risk tolerance and confidence through a foundation of safety. We’ll be taking tangible action to up the ante in our real lives.
Week 12
Integration week! We’ll soak in all we’ve experienced and set our intentions for life beyond the container. We’ll seal our circle more fiery and alive than we began and be ready to tackle big challenges on the path toward our wildest manifestations.
