Manifesting Your Best Self (Zero F*cks Given)

I always say change equals growth—and nine times out of ten, I’m all in for trying something new. But this year? I decided to double-dog dare myself to try something that, honestly, made me a little squirmy.

About a year ago, my bestest goddess in the whole wide world (seriously, she’s a literal angel on Earth) chose to release alcohol from her life and embrace a happy, sober-free lifestyle. No dramatic bottoming-out story. No ultimatum. Just a quiet, powerful knowing that it was time. Watching her absolutely glow up made me...well, sober curious.

And the Universe? Oh, it’s always listening.

Flash forward to the very start of 2025: there I was, deep in a scroll session on social media, when a post from a yoga instructor I follow popped up. She was promoting a retreat in Sedona—HSF Sedona Summit. Naturally, I was intrigued (Sedona and yoga? Sign me up). I slid into the DMs to see if they needed more speakers or facilitators, but alas, the slots were full. Womp womp.

Still, the way the organizer responded was so warm and beautiful that something in my soul whispered, You need to GO anyway. Even though I was still only curious about this whole sober vibe, I said yes. Hesitant... but yes.

Spoiler alert: leaning into that uneasiness cracked my heart wide open in the best possible way.

Being surrounded by people (men and women) who were navigating the messy, hilarious, and sometimes chaotic journey of adulting—without numbing out—was incredibly validating. Plus, so many of them were out there sharing their own healing gifts with the world. Big inspiring energy.

Every workshop peeled back another layer of me. But the real kicker? The breathwork!

I wasn’t ready. One minute I’m breathing, the next I’m hurtling back to middle school, facing years of buried resentment toward my family—especially my father, whose love felt more like a checklist I never got to complete. Cue the ugly crying. During the second round of breathwork, I legit felt my Solar Plexus Chakra convulsing. It wasn’t pretty. But it was transformational AF.

As I sit here writing this, smack dab in the center of a Sedona vortex, I’m feeling all the feels, letting the Universe flood me with love, strength, and direction. I'm more committed than ever to self-love, choosing myself, and helping you move from stuck to unstoppable.

Because here's the truth: Empowered people create a ripple effect. When we rise, we all rise.

I’ll never ask you to do something I don’t fully believe is possible. But I will lovingly nudge you to jump out of your cozy little comfort zone. You might just uncover the badass, radiant part of you that's been dying to strut center stage.

You can create the life you want. The power? It’s already inside you. You are the expert of your own story.

Now’s the time to set those intentions, get specific, and start shifting your life to the next level.
