Reclaiming You: Be a Rebel

1

You were trained to behave.

To shrink. To play nice. Smile when you’re dying inside. Work harder. Don’t question it.
You were shaped to fit in—not to be free.

Every word of praise or criticism carved you into a version of yourself that someone else deemed acceptable. Family, religion, school, culture, society—they all had a mold for you. And if you dared to push against it?

Punishment. Rejection. Shame. You learned to comply. To perform. To survive. That became your identity. But it was never your truth.

And then one day, the mask started slipping. You followed the rules. Checked the boxes. But still—something was off.

Patterns repeated. Relationships hurt. Boundaries vanished. You gave more than you had and called it love. You said yes when your soul was screaming no. Sound familiar?

Here’s the raw, honest truth:

Your conditioning became your cage. 

It helped you survive—but now, it’s suffocating you.

This isn’t your fault. But it is your responsibility. And here’s the wild, beautiful news:

You don’t have to keep living like this.

The first step? Awareness.
The second? A full-body hell yes to change.
Because this is your life. And you’re allowed to live it as you.

Not the version you were trained to be. Not the version that’s always exhausted, over-giving, and unseen. The real you—powerful, clear, whole.

Now I have an invitation for you if you want to get to the authentic you inside:

Rebel.

Rebel against the old stories.
Rebel against the internalized rules.
Rebel to remember yourself.

Learning your Human Design will get you started because…

Human Design is the map that shows you the way home.

It helps you see exactly where you’ve been conditioned—and more importantly, who you were before the world got its hands on you. It doesn’t fix you. It frees you.

It freed one client from trying to save others from themselves when she finally recognized that wasn’t her job. It took awhile, but she learned to let that part of her conditioning go – and not feel like a failure.

It freed me to live as a Projector and not try to keep up with everyone else’s energy levels.

It freed another client to stop people pleasing so much that it was hurting her business.

Knowing their designs and understanding how they function best was, and remains, freeing.

If you’re ready to start that journey, I invite you into my Immerse Yourself in You program—a 6-hour deep dive into your unique Human Design. One-on-one. Soul to soul.

You don’t have to do this alone. You just have to take the first step.

Book a complimentary call here.

Let’s meet the real you—together.

I’ve created my services because

The symbol of my business combines the dragonfly and the unalome because it represents your life journey.

The dragonfly’s journey begins beneath the water’s surface until the time is right and it emerges as a graceful, winged being. This profound transformation makes the dragonfly a symbol of change, growth, and the courage to embrace new opportunities.

The unalome is a representation of the path of life. Its base marks the beginning or awakening. The spirals and curves trace the twists, turns, and challenges you face along the way. As the line straightens, it symbolizes the wisdom you’ve gained.

Your journey may have challenges but it is meant to bring you a life of purpose as only you can be.
