From Burnout to Breathwork

My Journey from Beauty Industry Hustle to Somatic Healing & Pleasure Integration

For most of my adult life, I was doing what I thought I was supposed to do — working every hour the world demanded of me, climbing the ladder, grinding it out in the beauty industry. I was damn good at it, too. But underneath the “perfectly put-together” exterior, I was exhausted.

On paper, I had it together. But my nervous system was screaming. My body felt tight, disconnected. And no amount of success, holidays or self-care routines could quiet the aching truth in my chest:
This life isn’t it. I’m meant for something deeper.

I had mastered the art of performing. Of being the strong one. The fixer. The “you’re doing amazing, sweetie” version of myself. But the version I was showing the world? She was hiding. Hiding behind trauma. Hiding behind shame. Hiding behind the fear that if I stopped, everything would fall apart — including me.

What I didn’t realise at the time was that I wasn’t broken — I was just holding way too much that I never got the chance to process.

When Pleasure Became the Doorway

I started exploring embodiment, sensuality, and pleasure — not just as fun ideas, but as survival. I became a Pleasure Educator because I wanted women to feel what I had only just begun to understand: freedom in their own bodies.

For two years, I poured my soul into teaching women how to reclaim their sensual power. And it was beautiful, transformative, and deeply necessary work.

But something kept tugging at me underneath the surface. I noticed that no matter how much pleasure we explored, there was a common thread in the women I worked with — and in me too:

We didn’t feel fully safe in our bodies.
We were trying to run before we had ever truly rested. Trying to feel turned on, when we didn’t even feel held.

The Turn Toward Trauma-Informed Healing

That’s when I knew I needed to go deeper. Not just for my clients — but for me.

I began studying trauma on a certified, professional level. I wanted to truly understand what trauma is, how it shapes our bodies, how it shows up in relationships, intimacy, self-worth — all of it.

And more importantly, I wanted to know how to move it. How to release it in a way that didn’t re-traumatise, but empowered.

The Practice That Changed My Life: Breathwork

Somewhere along my own healing journey, I found breathwork. Or more honestly — breathwork found me.

It cracked me open in a way no journal, no therapist, no mindset shift ever could. It bypassed all my overthinking and went straight into my body. My grief. My rage. My truth.

It helped me release years of suppressed emotion.
It helped me feel again — in my body, not just my brain.
It helped me access a whole new level of myself — one rooted in safety and softness, not performance.

So I followed that path.
I trained and became a Certified Somatic Breathwork Practitioner, because I knew this medicine needed to be shared. Not just for trauma release — but for joy. For regulation. For rebirth.

Who I Am Today: Somatic Release & Pleasure Integration Coach

Today, I work with women who feel like they’re holding it all together, but are secretly holding everything inside. Women who are ready to stop performing to burn out and start healing. Women who want to feel safe, soft, open, alive — but don’t know how to get there yet.

I help them reconnect with their bodies, not by forcing or fixing, but by unlearning all the ways they were taught to disconnect.

Through a blend of:

• Somatic release practices

• Trauma-informed emotional processing

• Breathwork journeys

• Pleasure integration & nervous system healing

...I guide women back to themselves. Back to their truth. Back to a body that feels like home again.

Because pleasure isn’t just about sex.
It’s about feeling free. Feeling you.
And healing isn’t just about pain.
It’s about remembering your magic.

This Work Was Never Just a Job — It’s My Calling

I became the support I couldn’t find when I needed it. And if you’re reading this wondering if you’re too much, too broken, too far gone — you’re not. You’re just holding too much. And your body is ready to let it go.

You deserve a space to Surrender — to finally let go of the weight you’ve been carrying.

You deserve to Align — with your truth, your body, and the version of you that’s been waiting to rise.

And you deserve to Exhale — to feel good again, to feel safe again, to feel you again.

This isn’t the end of your story. It’s the beginning of your return.
