Be Full of Yourself--in the Very Best Way

I'm on a mission to flip the idea that you should "stop being so full of yourself." After all, who exactly are you supposed to be full of, if not yourself? This isn't about ego, but about being full of your own presence, clarity, and voice. It’s about learning to—and allowing yourself to—take up space in your own life.

For many of us, that space has gotten smaller.

If you're anything like me, you’ve spent years holding it all. Work, family, expectations. You’ve been the one people can count on, the one who shows up, who follows through, who gets it done. That high-functioning part of you has built so much. Yet in the quiet moments, something deeper stirs.

Even in the midst of a full life, there can be a subtle sense of emptiness. A vague ache. A wondering, just under the surface. Within the constant managing, doing, and holding everything together there may be a quietly nagging question:

Is this it?
Who am I, underneath all the roles I’ve learned to play?
What do I want?

These are big questions—ones we're often hesitant to ask. Letting yourself ask them might just be the first step to becoming full of yourself.

When the Pressure No Longer Works

For me, the turning point came with a question I couldn’t ignore: Who am I if I don’t put all this pressure on myself?

I was in total denial at the time, but I was burned out. I thought a little break would fix everything, but what I came to understand was that I was emptied out from years of pushing and performing. I’d built my identity around being smart, competent, responsible, and able to anticipate everyone else's needs. Somewhere in all that effort, I’d lost touch with myself.

It wasn’t a dramatic collapse. It was more like a quiet unraveling — a realization that something had to shift, even if I didn’t yet know what that looked like.

Learning to Take Up Space

I'm lucky to have been around horses all my life. They taught me how to listen and to pay attention to how I show up. I thought my challenges with them meant I didn't know enough, so I was always striving, always learning more information.

When I stumbled upon embodiment — the practice of noticing and responding to what’s happening in your body, in real time — I began to see just how much I had been living in my head. I realized I was good at thinking my feelings, but not truly experiencing them. My challenges weren’t about knowledge or effort. They were about my own lack of connection to myself.

That realization deepened in the months that followed. I started noticing all the ways I had been leaving myself behind — moving through life without truly feeling into it. That wake-up call helped me see just how unsustainable it was to live disconnected from my own body and experience. It showed me how much I had missed by not being present.

Working in Applied Neurology brought everything together. It grounded the body-based and intuitive practices in practical science. Studying the nervous system showed me exactly why those old patterns were there and how to shift them in immediately tangible ways. It supported not only emotional regulation but physical healing as well.

These weren’t just tools — they helped me reclaim parts of myself I’d left behind and start taking up space in my own life, with more clarity, embodiment, and self-trust.

What Grounds My Work

This work is grounded in years of both personal experience and professional training. Here’s a bit more about the tools I work with and how they’ve shaped my perspective:

I've been immersed in Natural Lifemanship since 2012 and hold dual certifications as a coach and equine professional. This work with horses continues to be foundational in how I understand connection, pressure, and presence.

I'm a certified Uzazu Embodied Intelligence Practitioner and Group Facilitator. Since 2020, this modality has helped me and my clients map emotions and patterns somatically, offering a way to notice where we are and how to move to create change that feels safe in the body.

I'm also a certified Neurosomatic Intelligence Practitioner and Next Level Neuro Mentorship Graduate. I've been engaged in this work since 2021. It has been powerful in translating the "woo" into a scientifically grounded understanding of the brain and body. It has been essential for creating more emotional regulation, but also physical healing from chronic back pain.

These are the tools I trust — not because they are trendy, but because they’ve truly changed how I live. They offer a way to reconnect with what’s real, and help you become more full of yourself--in the best possible way.

When the Old Ways Stop Working

You may be in a season of questioning, starting to see that the strategies that once got you through aren’t working the same way anymore. That realization can feel disorienting, even scary, but I’ve found it’s often the beginning of something important.

When you know who you are and can fully express that, life begins to align. Having someone walk with you — not to fix or push, but to notice and reflect — is a valuable part of that process.
