Thank you, thank you. These exact four things together are my every day reality. For over a decade, teaching self-regulation and sensory-integration practices to marginalized populations in juvenile detention, mental health and recovery settings. And training hundreds of others across the country to do the same. One seed planted at a time. One ripple in the vast sea, on some days, making big waves. Doing this work with humility and feeling so very nourished and healed through being of service to others.

The hardest part for me is being an empath. I have always been open to other people's emotions and it is hard to just shut it off. I can easily put myself into other people's shoes and sometimes agonize over all the trauma that is going on. My family is my ground and they pull me back from the brink often. I would be lost without them!
