When my body stopped letting me push forward
About a month after I turned 40, my body stopped cooperating.
Nothing dramatic had happened.
Nothing had fallen apart.
In fact, my life looked pretty great.
And then it was like…
Bam.
Something is wrong.
And you are not moving forward until you figure it out.
As someone who had done years of inner work, this caught me completely off guard.
I didn’t feel burned out.
I felt stuck — physically and energetically.
So I did what I always do: I went looking for answers.
I tried coaching.
Therapy.
Functional medicine.
Somatic work.
Psychedelics.
Hypnosis.
Each offered insight.
Each helped in some way.
But none of them created the movement I was craving.
Until I found homeopathy.
Homeopathy works at an energetic level — addressing long-held mental, emotional, and physical patterns in the body rather than suppressing symptoms.
When I started working with it consistently, something finally shifted.
Not overnight.
Not magically.
But deeply.
What mattered most wasn’t just symptom relief — it was that the chains loosened.
Here’s what began to change:
• Digestive issues that had lingered for years
• Skin issues I had managed through restriction
• Mental fog and analysis paralysis
• Resistance and confusion around my work
• That heavy sense of stuckness I used to override
Even my relationship with food began to feel quieter — less charged, less strategic.
As those patterns released, energy started moving again.
And when energy moves — you can move.
Toward clarity.
Toward creativity.
Toward purpose that doesn’t require force.
This is still an unfolding process — but it’s embodied, not just intellectual.
In the next email, I want to talk about what happens after the stuckness releases — and how midlife invites us into a very different way of orienting our lives and work.
