I am writing this letter from a quiet coffee shop corner adorned with vintage artifacts and aesthetics. I find there is something quite powerful that happens when we immerse ourselves in settings, contexts and experiences that awaken the senses and conjure contemplation. There are certain words that conjure energy and emotion, and one of these words for me is renaissance.

August is the 8th month of the year. The number 8 in Numerology symbolizes abundance, infinity, and prosperity. In addition to this numerical aspect, astrologically, we are in Leo season. Leo represents the Lion, Fire, and Power. We also have the 8 | 8 Portal which is known as Lion's Gate, when the star Sirius aligns and amplifies our power to manifest our dreams and desires. It is a powerful portal of transformation.

The world is changing, and the future isn't coming—it's already here. Currencies are evolving, old financial systems are dissolving, and a new era of opportunity is rising. One technology is at the forefront of this massive shift, yet most people still don't fully grasp its power: cryptocurrency.

Not going to medical school was, without a doubt, the most profoundly aligned decision I ever made. There was a significant period where I wrestled with doubt, questioned my path, and even carried a quiet shame about choosing not to pursue an MD. In hindsight, I understand that this period of questioning was not a sign of error, but an essential part of my unfolding. It was the universe gently, yet firmly, guiding me back to my true self and my true path.

We are living through an unprecedented time of global transformation. The rate of changes, events, and revelations is accelerating in ways we've never experienced – not in our lifetimes, nor in the history of humanity. What’s transpiring spans far beyond what the eyes can see and the mind can comprehend. Many narratives are intentionally designed to anchor us in fear, seeking to distract and manipulate.

Personally, I have been feeling a lot. I wrote these words for me to remember during these times and thought they may support you too:
Challenges are Catalysts . They are catalysts to rise, to grow, and to become. 

My deepest desire is that this message finds you feeling connected to your body, anchored in your power, and aligned with the vibrant health that is your birthright. Today, I want to share one of the most fundamental elements of our well-being, something so ingrained in our daily lives we rarely stop to question it: the water we drink and bathe in. Water hydrates, cleanses, and nourishes us. 

Instead of these journal posts being blogs, they are going to be love letters interspersed with powerful wellness inspiration and tips. It is all about the frequency and the energetics of the intention behind the letter. I found myself adopting a disconnected tone that felt more forced and less authentic in the newsletter format. With the love letter my intention is to share my heart, my contemplations as well as other insightful wisdom and wellness tips that I genuinely want  you to know. 

I am celebrating the completion of my 7.5 year Personalized PhD and I am in deep reflection of my path and my intentions as I create going forward. I have been writing weekly Wellness Wednesday Newsletters and Journal Entries for one year now. In reflection I see that this is not my preferred medium. While I am a writer and I love words, I realize that these journal entries are not my preferred way to convey my contemplations nor share the depth of my wisdom. I often find myself writing what I think I should instead of what is truly on my heart. 

Interestingly, silent and listen contain the same letters, yet are spelled distinctly to convey unique meanings. Yet in essence they convey a shared energetic frequency. Silence is the foundation for listening. 

So many women I’ve supported experience hair loss and/or thinning. It has become increasingly common, yet it is deeper than a cosmetic issue. Hair health issues are signs of deeper imbalances within your body, often linked to stress, adrenal fatigue, and even fertility challenges. The health of your hair reflects the health of your liver and adrenals.

In our modern world, the intricate tapestry of toxins, chemicals, and pathogens has expanded to an unprecedented degree. Daily, we encounter these exposures through the nourishment we take in, the hydration we receive, the products that grace our skin and homes, the air that fills our lungs, and the environments in which we live our lives.

Like the bursting forth of a bud, growth is a cyclical process of expansion and necessary breaking open – a liberation of what was held tight. While it may feel like you're breaking, trust the process and know that you're not breaking, you're becoming. You're breaking free from all that once limited and defined you.

I had a powerful breakthrough the other day, a moment where the meaning of something I already knew resonated on a much deeper level. Living here in Santa Fe, a city whose name translates to "Saint Faith," it struck me with new significance. I live in the city of Faith. On Thursday, I spoke with a mentor and asked her for guidance around the embodiment of faith, only to later have this epiphany. I have been on a deep journey with faith, and my faith continues to grow each day. I felt divinely guided to live in Santa Fe, and the truth is, it feels like it was meant to be for so many reasons.

Inspired by Dr. Afrouz Demeri's concept of "Trimester 0," the Pre-Conception Era is a dedicated period of intentional self-development before conception. It's about optimizing your health, proactively addressing potential concerns, and laying the foundation for radiant fertility and a thriving pregnancy. This phase prioritizes lifestyle pillars like nourishing nutrition, stress resilience, restorative sleep, mindful movement, and embodied detoxification, creating an ideal environment for both conception and fetal development.

We're navigating a potent eclipse portal, a period of significant beginnings and endings, urging us to step into our authentic power, purpose, and potential. This transformative energy has sparked deep contemplation within me, and I'm excited to share these insights with you.

The world of nutrition can feel confusing and overwhelming, filled with conflicting advice. Food is simpler than we've been led to believe. It's time to cut through the noise and uncover the truth about what truly nourishes your body and optimizes your fertility. Today, I want to address the popular ketogenic diet and its often-overlooked impact on women's health and fertility.

Faith is the unwavering belief in what is unseen, the conviction without tangible evidence. Everything we desire to create begins in the realm of thought. This creative process is fueled by faith. We receive a vision, yet it exists only within our minds. Faith empowers us to bridge the gap, to manifest that vision into our physical reality, transforming belief into tangible experience.

This birthday week feels different. It's not just a reflection on the past year, but on the entire journey of my twenties—a significant transition, a bridge between two distinct eras. It's the ending of one chapter and the exciting beginning of another: my thirties.

The transformations I'm witnessing in my clients are truly inspiring, and I'm bursting to share them with you. My own journey of growth and refinement has led me to this moment, where I'm more confident than ever in the power of what I do.
