Favorite Quotes:

  • I'm trying to avert a loss legacy. I don't want this to go to waste. I don't believe yeah, I just don't believe that shit happens and that's that, like we can make something of it and there's deep meaning and connection and potential in our stories. And they help people.” --- Shoshana Koch
  • Who we are is unbridled. . . . We are consciousness and the universe that we live in is clothed in the five elements. And we can make what we want with them.” --- Cate Stillman
  • The reason I called my group “Be Rhythm” is - A - I love dancing and music. And B -  it's all about attuning to the biorhythms and like the rhythms of the cosmos. And that that is within us and when we get in sync we thrive. We live our best life.” --- Shoshana Koch

Guest BIO:

I believe healing is a process of unraveling, excavating, and reclaiming our innate nature which is one of love. Through this alchemy, we experience union within ourselves and the world-a fuller integration of being. No matter your background, or the suffering you’ve endured, you are already “pre-approved” in the words of the great writer Anne Lamott. I guide others to recognize their truth and build what is their birthright to embody. We all deserve to feel whole, worthy, and vibrantly alive.

 

Being a bonafide “shame whisperer,” is one of my greatest assets. In helping people name their deepest fear and longing, as well as supporting them in the work of transmuting it, I live my Dharma or higher purpose. I am deeply grateful for the courage and grit people demonstrate in pursuing this work and for their willingness in allowing me to be part of their reclamation!
