Body-Centered Education
for Burnout Recovery and Capacity-Building
Stay in your purpose without abandoning your body.
You do brave, brilliant work. Your body shouldn’t have to do it alone.
The systems you move through, Corporate, Academic, Artistic, Non-Profit, they all demand rigor without rest. Productivity without pause.
And if you’re a woman, femme-of-center, queer, or fighting injustices, the weight lands harder. The pressure is exhausting.
At EMBODIED PURPOSE, I work with high-impact professionals and ambitious change-makers like you to build the capacity to sustain your commitments without collapsing under them.
This isn’t therapy. It’s not just coaching. It’s practical solutions to the patterns that drain your energy and disrupt your life.
Stop grinding past sleep, breath, and connection.
Build the kind of resilience that holds you when the work is heavy and relentless.
This space is for you if...
You want to be successful at work without burnout.
You want to complete a dissertation or proposal without abandoning yourself or your community.
You’re tired of feeling stuck in your head.
You are ready to decode some of your body’s messages around stress and nourishment.
You’re ready to step out of the grind and into your own rhythm.

Burnout happens when the environment you’re working in fails to respect your capacity and need for rest. The accumulation of weeks—or even months—spent studying, organizing within your community, or trying to bring a creative project to life takes a real toll. Sometimes, the very passion that fuels your work can clash with your ability to sustain it. This tension can lead to a slow erosion of your energy, often ending in a sudden crash. When you're operating under these conditions, the feeling of being overextended isn't just emotional—it’s real. And it affects everything: your mood, your capabilities, your relationships, and your body. Schedule a free consult and start getting the support you crave.
Let’s begin.
Embody your brilliance so your passions can thrive without collapse or compromise.
