Befriend Your Body

cut the noise and reconnect with your inner wisdom

so you can love what you do and how you do it – in every moment

Your body is how you create, connect, and experience your life.

In a healthful world, your relationship with your body would be one of joy, gratitude, and belonging.

But in a world that teaches us to distrust, reject, and override our bodies, most of us end up feeling stuck, self-critical, and out of sync with ourselves and our lives.

Sound familiar?
Befriend Your Body is for you if...

You’ve followed the rules, and your life may even look great on paper, but inside, you feel exhausted, flat, overwhelmed, unfulfilled.
You make promises to yourself… then don’t follow through. And then you tell yourself how you're just not a person who follows through.
You don’t know what you really want — but you long for a sense of purpose.
You scroll, spend, or self-soothe in ways that leave you feeling worse.
You think you should know better… and beat yourself up when you don’t live up to that story.

Let’s be clear: you are not the problem.

Every “bad habit” is a wise coping mechanism — your strategy to survive in a culture that disconnects you from yourself.

It's time to stop surviving and start thriving.

You can change the story — not with more discipline, but with more connection.

When you and your body are on the same team, it becomes natural to:

Tune into your clear yes/no and make choices that actually feel good – in the moment and in the long run, too.
Let go of short-term fixes that cost you long-term joy.
Ask for what you need — in relationships, work, life — with grounded confidence.
Love and accept yourself as you are right here, right now, even if you also see ways you'd like to improve or change.
Leave situations that drain you, and invest your time where you thrive.
Ride out uncertainty and wait for what truly aligns — job, love, and beyond.
Stay rooted in your values, even when your boundaries are challenged.

This isn’t about forcing change.
It’s about becoming the kind of friend, partner, parent — human — you want to be, by befriending yourself at the most fundamental level.

Ready to feel at home in your life — and in your body?

Join Befriend Your Body and experience the shift for yourself.

Befriend Your Body is a weekly zoom oasis (yes, oasis!)

A space to unwind, reconnect, and rewire your relationship with your body through gentle, powerful somatic practice in a supportive collective container.

Each week, we move in ways that shift our relationships with our bodies inside and out, reconnecting with the body's belonging and wisdom, so you can shift to relating to your body from the inside and with love.

You'll learn to relate to your body as a beloved companion, the vessel through which you connect and move through life, so you can be available to receive and use the gifts of embodiment.

We replace the voice of "not enough" and self criticism with one of kindness, groundedness, and love, so any changes you make in life are rooted in belonging rather than self-rejection.

We stop pretending things are fine when they’re not and instead use what’s real and true for us to grow, so reclaiming your relationship with your body becomes a journey toward wholeness and deep integrity.

You’ll set a simple intention to carry with you through the week, and our warm, supportive community will help you stay gently on track, so you let go of self-flagellation and come home to sustainable change.

We have a message group that will offer reflections and practices between sessions, so you always feel supported and connected.

As you become more kind, consistent, and trustworthy with yourself, your whole life begins to open up.

This is about more than feeling good (though yes, that too!)
It’s about reclaiming your power, your presence, and your sense of belonging — in your body and in the world.

✨ Come see how good it can feel to be on your own side.
Try your first week free and feel the difference.

When you're connected to your body...

You have full access to your embodied wisdom, which will guide you to a life of enjoyment and personal power.

You find ways to show up in your relationships and your whole life that really work for you.

You'll be able to recognize and trust yourself to make whatever changes are needed for you to feel good in each relationship, whether friend, family, work, or more, so you start to have relationships that nourish and sustain you.

As you show up in ways that work for you, you will become more steady, reliable, and wholehearted in all your relationships.

As you leave behind the patterns of putting yourself last, you'll be able to bring more of your best to the people and projects that are most important to you.

You can be more honest and forthright with the people you're close to, making those relationships more whole, solid, and trustworthy.

By coming home to yourself, you'll create an environment of inner approval that will lift your spirits and steady you through even the most challenging times in life.

Cultivating a deep, connected relationship with your body will allow you to hear your inner voice, so you can easily set and hold boundaries without losing your cool.

Live sessions happen most Mondays 7-8pm Eastern

Replays are posted within 24 hours, and usually within 6 hours, so you can attend at your convenience or revisit powerful moments anytime you want.

Befriend Your Body is rooted in and inspired by earlier collaboration called Make Peace with Your Body with Ashnie Butler, incredible culture change coach. Ashnie is one of countless BIPOC folks whose work grounds and inspires Befriend Your Body.

My body love journey has been inspired and guided by Sonya Renee Taylor, her book The Body is Not an Apology, and her extensive work in the world.

My spiritual and healing journey has been deeply influenced by Reverend angel Kyodo williams and her many offerings, and by Madame Snowflakes, Boss of Femininity.

I'm grateful for all the freedom dreamers and spiritual warriors whose work informs my own.

Here's what people are saying about Befriend Your Body

"What I felt most was this giant relief. It felt easier to breathe than I had experienced earlier. During the practices, my perception of my own reserves of power and self-love shifted. I went from feeling constriction to this unfolding, an unfurling... The challenges I’m facing haven’t disappeared, but now they’re overlaid with this deeper breath." –VZ

"I'm coming away with a sense of belonging and of appreciation of my body." –KT

"Really appreciating the opportunity to feel some rest." –MM
