The Evolution our community & practice
Today feels a lot lighter in our practice than it has in many years. Given so much in the world today, it is with great relief that I can offer to accommodate you in such loving space, intimately in your home, your friend’s home, or my sanctuary looking out on a beautiful hill country canyon.
I have not taken many breaks in growing my skills and acquiring newer sensory to enhance our therapies, despite the last five years of many challenges. And I feel like it paid off suddenly…I feel like we’re hitting something incredibly special.
Last summer I uprooted my practice of almost 20 years from brick and mortar. Next I dove straight into a personal practice of saying “Yes” to every new version of how we can work. I’m not going to lie. It was uncomfortable at times, often I barely broke even as I navigated what was possible and what probably wasn’t sustainable. The process was incredibly fruitful however. As it has altered my personal journey into a much more grounded experience, transcending into more meaningful sessions. Make no mistake, I am still very much grounded, feet in this soil, and more present than in recent years past to serve my beloved Austin, Dripping Springs, Driftwood, Wimberley, & Global Communities.
Pressure in the Universe nudges Humanity to try something new. I’ve heard the echoes of many taking altering plunges over the last year when everything has seemed so hard, and it becoming their best and most authentic path yet. I’m in that same boat and am grateful to have been called to question the viability and the norms in my industry. It has been a game changer. Thank you for your love and support.
WHAT I KNOW TODAY
I know how challenging the economy and navigating our healthcare is. I too do not have health insurance at this time due to the expense. Because of this, I have kept our basic rate structure in place since 2020 without any increase. HSA credit cards are encouraged if you have them.
As we move forward, some enhancement rates will come into play for special requests.
AN INVITATION, PRACTICE OFFERINGS NOW
The 2+hour in home blocks have provided a deep well of levity, healing, and connectivity for families and friends exploring bodywork together, as well as, a window in for other family members to finally understand and develop a new respect on the importance of the work that we do. These “anchor” spots can be scheduled monthly in advance to create a ritual supporting your physical health, nervous system, and a net to catch you when something is close to a tipping point. Better for me to find it before you feel it. These spots allow your community to book last minute neighborhood visits too. When you anchor the neighborhood, you take control of my scheduler too.
The 4hr+ community blocks - With a minimum of four hours committed in advance, the day is yours and I will not book around you. You have my full attention. Based on commute and volume I will negotiate breaks / special fees to balance our hard work. I encourage communities to come together and book these in a regular spot in advance to take out the guesswork and the stress of scheduling monthly. Advance notice allows me to shape the rest of the scheduler around you and your life balance.
90minute in home sessions are also still available based upon neighborhood volume and your flexibility to add onto the neighborhood once larger blocks/”anchors” are in place. The idea is that these seem to be last minute appointments in nature, or emergency based. If you are suddenly going into surgery etc, let’s talk. I organize my weeks to try to have some give to support my community during such challenges without an anchor. My heart is in this. But please keep in mind, I do have a 2 hour commute to Austin, so these are unique situations. Not every event can be an emergency.
30, 60, 90, and 2 hour sessions are available at the Wimberley Sanctuary. All options are currently offered M-F based on my prior home and remote commitments. Although I offer these daily, I am spending at least two days a week driving many hours for the above clients too, as well as, conducting remote sessions. However, if I am home and available, I am happy to support you. Currently I am also offering one dedicated Saturday monthly for hands-on in Wimberley.
Remotes are not light energy work ups. I take these as serious as I do hands-on and work with people transitioning through grieving, adult austism, cancer, head injuries, and more. I also organize my weeks, due to their heightened nature, to offer give to accept last minute support around the globe.
EXPERIENCE IS WISDOM
For those of you who do not know much about my background, I’m not new to streamlining businesses, auditing line items, carrying out structure and policy, nor core customer service. I’m also not just starting out as many newcomers think since I am working mobile. I’ve led industry changes in fact. I was one of the first locally, and nationally to shut down the practice of gratuity. I believe every session is important and authenticity and transparency are the anchors of any successful business. For that reason I also don’t peddle packages. I earn your trust based per session.
My bodywork practice is just shy of 20 years, mostly based out of commercial brick and mortar. I have always been my own boss in my practice, and have had small businesses off and on since my late 20s. Additionally, my experience includes leading a multi-million npo in the red into the black within six months. I have worked at almost every level of luxury and mid-level hospitality, even catering a private event to a world renowned opera singer, and working in a hotel owned by a prince. I have a double degree in International Affairs and French. Although my French ebbs and flows without a lot of regular practice, I still love communication and believe that learning languages opens the door to so many cultures and conversations we would have missed out. Currently I’m learning Korean. As a teenager into college I worked 20-30 hours a week for Ben & Jerry’s in my hometown. Working hard, leaning into challenges and shapeshifting when the Universe demands big life shifts, can be exhausting on the soul, but it is not new to me. And I know usually it’s for the good, so, I ride the wave. But many things in our lives do not need to carry added stress, which is why I like to work smart, delivering efficient, seamless sessions to my community in a way that offsets and compliments the hard work we do in healing and mind/body support.
Thank you for continuing to support and allow me to support your beautiful life.
Tomorrow is organic. This is where we’ve landed for now. So much love.
