I’m an ex-engineer and former project manager who helps ambitious women stop overthinking, overcome fear, and lead with power. If you’re building something big (or just sensing you're being called higher), but are caught in perfectionism, doubt, or hiding behind “busy,” I help you step into the embodied leadership your next level demands.

✉️ Telling yourself you're too _____?

The Embodied Edge
1 month away from the Abundant Self Mixer!
I am a country music OG. 🤠
I'm talking Reba McEntire on cassette tape, seeing Garth Brooks when he was playing small stadiums, country-before-it-was-cool kind of OG.
These past few years, though, something's shifted.
📱 My listening time has largely transitioned from music to podcasts.
🎵 And something within me decided it's not spiritual to listen to country. I should be listening to that high vibe stuff.
Yet every now and then, I get the urge. When I let myself answer, I feel like myself again.
So I'm making an effort to do it more. To spend a little less time learning, or trying to fit a mold of what I think being "spiritual" looks like, and a little more time feeling like me.
✉️That's my invitation for you this week. Is there something you used to love that you made a silly rule that you're too _____ to enjoy it?
I'm not talking bad habits that you've outgrown. I'm talking those things that used to feel like you that life, for whatever reason, pushed to the side.
Think about it. Journal on it. If you come up with something, find 5 minutes to dip your toe back into that thing this week!
That's it! I'll be back next Sunday with your next practice!

Other Ways I Can Support You
If you like this newsletter and would love to dive in further with me, here are a few ways to do that!
📘 Order a signed copy of Soul Guides: Mystical Connections to Soul Guides and Divine Teachers. I am a contributing author in this book (published 2022), and have a few copies left. Once they're gone, they're gone! Buying from me (instead of Amazon) supports my small business, which I appreciate. Grab your copy here! I will sign and ship it to you!
❤️ Private Coaching. This is my most transformative experience, personalized to you. I help high-achieving female leaders and business owners stop overthinking and start embodying their leadership, so they can lead, speak, and show up with the kind of confidence and magnetism that can’t be taught in a textbook. You can read more on my website, or go straight to booking a no pressure 30 minute Connection Call!
✈️ Join me in Columbia! I'm considering hosting a group women's trip to Columbia in January/February 2027 (with the same guide that took me to Cuba). If you'd be interested, add your name to the waitlist! This does not commit you to the trip; it just helps me gauge interest before I fully commit.

"My experience with Andrea surpassed my expectations! She took the time to understand where I was at, what I was struggling with, and where I wanted to be. Through our coaching sessions she was able to tap into different thought patterns and beliefs that were holding me back and not allowing me to move forward. She gave me tactical and actionable tools to use as these thought patterns come up so I can move through them. Working with Andrea gave me the confidence to go after the life I want to be living and show up in this world the way I was meant to!" Monica

The Embodied Edge I was getting dressed the other day. I grabbed the pair on top - the one with the big hole on the side. They were okay enough, so I kept them in rotation. But as I pulled them on (and my thumb went through the hole), I thought… why am I keeping these? I have plenty of others. I can afford new underwear. Why am I settling for holey underwear? I think a lot about how the clues in our life are doorways into our unconscious. In this case, me keeping holey underwear is a clue...
The Embodied Edge Creativity isn't about the outcome. It's about the act of expressing something through your body. As kids, we were naturally creative. Somewhere along the way, we probably heard something like "you can't make money doing that. Find something more stable." And we shut that part of us down in favor of books, learning, and achieving. As adults, many of us have creative pulls but are bringing a high-achiever perspective to it: only doing things we know we can do perfectly and...
