The Innovative Therapist

Bold statement alert! 2 months could change your life 🤯

This is a somewhat vulnerable, very imperfect video from me speaking from the heart about our Retreat Experience this October.

I often speak from my own experience because that’s what i have access to, but these profound shifts are also from what I’ve witnessed in years of working with folks in a therapy and also coaching capacity.

The combo of parts work, energy management (not just time) and creativity and play in community truly is mind blowing.🤯

But it’s something you EXPERIENCE versus “learn” or think your way into (to the chagrin of our analyzing / cognitive parts).

I’ve designed the container with all of this in mind to help you shift in the most efficient way i know of.

If this is calling to your soul in any way, please reach out. Just dm “retreat” and I’ll share more details. You won’t regret it. ❤️❤️

Entrepreneurship humbles me over and over...

So does parenting...

It's all good practice for the world we are living in today.

Creativity heals. It makes us better problem solvers. It does SO much, but ultimately, it deepens self trust and makes us better leaders, of ourselves and others.

Last week's podcast convo with Erica Hornthal .therapist.who.moves.you on movement patterns helped me see this movement pattern of mine so much more clearly:

The urge to shrink or minimize myself and what I'm doing.

And while this used to protect me, I don't need this movement pattern anymore.

So I'm practicing a new one. Owning my value and worth.

The fact is, the Innovative Therapist community and retreat attracts incredible humans.

And the people I get to hang with and create my podcast with? Amazing.

People like Hannah Berry of , hanging with and upcoming conversations with Hannah Sullivan and Shannon Cohen of , and honestly so many more.

I also am now getting to record in person interviews in the amazingly creative podcast studio, huge shoutout to Erik and Layah, who will also be coming on the pod soon.

It's time for me, and all of us to remember, us playing small doesn't serve anyone... so it's time to own our unique value. It can be scary, but it gets easier, and I promise, it's also very fun. ;)

Overanalysis does not create capacity. It's constricting...

Yep.

So much of my healing came from understanding and learning... until recently.

Now I can heal and release and feel better before I understand it, and even if I never do.

This conversation helped me understand this (ironically) at a new level.

We can help parts of us that love to analyze step back and let us tap into intuitive and desire, and it's so incredibly freeing.

Thank you Erica .therapist.who.moves.you for this incredible convo. So grateful.

This convo with Erica Hornthal .therapist.who.moves.you connected so many dots for me.

Movement patterns are so much more than dance. They can be small, or look like overthinking, freezing, shrinking, or so many other things.

If you know me, you know I LOVE healing more efficiently.

If you feel like you have all the self awareness in the world but patterns are staying stuck, ("I know what to do, I'm just not doing it"), this convo is definitely for you.

Huge thank you to Erica. I've been thinking about this episode since we recorded it weeks ago and I'm SO pumped to share it with you finally!
