No warning. No stress buildup. Just BOOM. Body offline. Gone for hours.
Couldn’t move. Couldn’t work. Couldn’t mom.
And that part? That was the worst.
I’ve got 3 boys. And during those months, they basically raised themselves.
I couldn’t drive. Couldn’t go anywhere without the fear of collapsing. No beach days. No park runs. No “let’s go grab ice cream” energy.
My oldest learned to drive so he could take care of the younger ones ~ Because I couldn’t.
My business was scaling.
But I was shrinking.
This wasn’t burnout like “I need a vacation.”
This was my body declaring: Success isn’t safe and if you won’t slow down, I’ll stop you for good.
That was my line-in-the-sand moment.
I stopped pushing.
Stopped bypassing.
And I started healing.
Real healing ~ not mindset fluff.
⚡ Nervous system regulation ⚡ Deep safety work ⚡ Rebuilding from the root
And I got better. Not just healthier. But more spacious.
I had energy. Capacity. I could play again. I could live again.
Because before that? I was maxed out just trying to hold it all together.
My body was protecting me from the growth I thought I wanted.
That collapse became the blueprint for HOLD.
Because no woman should have to wait until she’s bedridden, dissociated, or parented by her own kids... to realize she’s been running on trauma, not trust.
You can grow without gripping. You can lead without losing yourself. You can build without abandoning your body ~ or your babies.
And if your nervous system is whispering “Not again…” That’s not fear. That’s truth.

The Income That Knocked Me Out (Literally)
The first time I hit my “dream income”...
I should’ve been celebrating.
Instead? I was blacking out mid-day.
No warning. No stress buildup. Just BOOM. Body offline. Gone for hours.
Couldn’t move. Couldn’t work. Couldn’t mom.
