Happy Anniversary to Me 🌹 One year ago, I made

Happy Anniversary to Me 🌹

One year ago, I made a sacred recommitment to self-love by marrying myself in Cabo.
It was spontaneous, ignited in the stillness of a February bath ritual in 2024. I was 38, approaching 39. Some might call it a midlife crisis. I call it an expansion. An awakening.

I made a full embodied choice to reclaim what it means to live on my own terms with unconditional self-love. That was one of the vows I made. And I intend to keep it.

This daily devotion to myself, sometimes spiraling and sometimes soft, has transformed not only my own life but the lives of my clients.

I help folks navigate crisis, transitions, and relational or mental health challenges through a powerful fusion of Psychotherapy, Movement, Pleasure, Meditation, Connection, Rootwork, and Embodied Self-Compassion.

Curious how self-love can become a living, breathing art form?

Tokyo Noir Long Beach for my birthday 🎁: Hidde

Tokyo Noir Long Beach for my birthday 🎁:

Hidden behind El Barrio Cantina, Tokyo Noir is Long Beach’s best-kept secret for serious cocktail lovers. This intimate, 25-seat speakeasy is all about moody vibes, Japanese precision, and next-level drinks by Ice Master Kevin Lee (YAS, I said Ice Master!). Expect stunning hand-carved ice, rare spirits, small bites, and cocktails that feel more like an art form.

Reservations? A must. But if you’re feeling spontaneous, walk-ins are welcome after 11 PM. Perfect for a low-lit, luxe night out.

I went last week for my birthday with a friend @corcordejesus, and let’s just say—worth it!! Add this to your LB must-visit list.

📍 Tokyo Noir, Long Beach

December 2024: A Continuation of Goodness 🎄✨

This month was all about celebration, connection, and holiday magic:

🎢 Disneyland Adventures
Kicked off the season with a trip to the happiest place on earth—pure joy!

🎂 Mom’s Birthday
We celebrated my mom’s special day in style, surrounded by love and laughter.

🎄 Sissy Christmas Night
Had the best time with my sisters, making memories and soaking in all the holiday feels.

🎭 Shows with Kate
We saw Wicked (magical!) and Nosferatu (spooky vibes), keeping the theatre love alive.

✨ Candy Cane Lane
Took a stroll through Candy Cane Lane to bask in all the festive lights—holiday magic at its finest!

🎉 Holiday Parties Galore
• Joined the Illuminate crew for an unforgettable holiday bash.
• Got glammed up with a little “hairapy” thanks to @tinu2u.
• Luis’s holiday party was an absolute smash! 💥

December wrapped up 2024 with so much love, joy, and celebration. Here’s to carrying all this goodness into the new year!

What were your favorite moments of Last year? We are only an hour into 2025 😂🥺😍😭😂

November 2024: Family, Friends & Beyond 🍂 This

November 2024: Family, Friends & Beyond 🍂

This month has been full of connection, gratitude, and a little magic:

✨ Spiritual Beach Work
I’ve been feeling so alive and grounded in my spiritual practices by the ocean—it’s been a beautiful way to center myself.

👩‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family Time
Family life has been a blessing. We played a murder mystery game, and while I couldn’t keep up with all the clues, it was so much fun pretending to be a sorceress!

🦃 Friendsgiving Fun
Friendsgiving this year was unforgettable! I made my guests do a scavenger hunt… while wearing my masks, of course! 😂

🌹 Honoring Ancestors
I visited the grave to send love and gratitude to my grandmother and great-grandmother, reflecting on the strength and love they’ve passed down.

This November has been a beautiful reminder of the power of connection—family, friends, and those who came before us. 💕

October 2024: Refashioning My Life 🍂

✨ Playback Theatre Retreat with @peoplesplayback le
I went to the East Coast for a playback theatre retreat, performed with seasoned actors from across the country, and had so much fun! My inner child, Princess Tiana, came along to help me feel loved and refreshed.

🚗 Car Show in Bellflower
I found my dream car—a Corvette! (Still manifesting this beauty, lol.)

🎥 Joker Night
Kate and I saw Joker… let’s just say, we had mixed feelings. (Slide 3 says it all!)

🤝 Shifting Focus
I connected with fellow therapists at @wellnesssocialofficial. And I received my license in mail. I also made the hard decision to leave my second job as a therapist to focus on health and family.

🎃 Halloween Fun
• Hit @siennasinclaire_’s epic Beetlejuice-themed event with @pole.raven—such a vibe!
• Celebrated Halloween with Diodona’s family, which was a blast.
• Wrapped it up with my sisters @onelasturge & @symplyadri for some spooky fun—dead man’s toes included!

October reminded me to realign, embrace joy, and prioritize what matters most. 💕

🌟 September Reflections 2024 Continues 🌟 Bi

🌟 September Reflections 2024 Continues 🌟

Big wins this month: I officially earned my LMFT license 🎉 But even more meaningful was stepping into the most beautiful art exhibit I’ve ever experienced—celebrating Black love, intimacy, and full self-expression. ALL ABOUT LOVE BY @mickalenethomas 🖤✨ It moved me deeply, inspiring me to reflect on where and how I need to show up artistically in my own life again.

For the longest time, I grieved over how the word therapy never fully resonated with me. While I see its immense value and how much it helps others, I’ve always felt that expressive art as therapy holds a stronger, more transformative power—for me.

This year has been about embracing that truth and stepping into a new perspective. Decolonizing therapy has shown me that healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. We can expand and redefine what it means to hold space for others, blending art, culture, and individuality into the work.

It’s been an empowering journey to finally know this: I don’t have to choose between being a therapist and an artist. I can be both. 💫

Here’s to redefining roles, reclaiming creativity, and honoring the art of healing in all its forms. 🎨🌿

August 2024. Family time! I got to fly to Michigan to see my brother and his family. It was the best! My mom even came and overcame her fear of flying on an airplane.

We are private type of family so you won’t be seeing everyone lol 😂 my brother may make me take off the video where mom almost ran him over with a quad 😭🥺😂🫣

August 2024: Fashioning My Shadow Work This month

August 2024: Fashioning My Shadow Work

This month, I found myself diving deeper into shadow work, with the ocean becoming my second home. My journey with tantra meditation naturally led me to the water element—a powerful force for clarity and renewal. The waves reminded me to wash away what no longer serves me and embrace the flow of life.

Exploring my astrology transits provided valuable insights into what’s to come. It’s amazing how the cosmos can act as a roadmap for self-awareness. It’s helped me to check myself before I wreck myself—and if I do wreck myself a little, that’s okay too, because I’ll always find ways to heal.

And speaking of wrecking… I couldn’t resist tearing down an abandoned sandcastle at the beach (Slide 2). Nearby kids thought it was hilarious and joined in, kicking it down with me. Sometimes destruction can be pure joy! 😂

Fashion inspo this month? Rihanna, of course, with her iconic leopard print vibes. She’s forever fab and fearless. 🐆😍

I also indulged my inner child with Sailor Moon-themed donuts from @moonbridgedoughnuts 🍩. Sharing them with my coworker, Kana, made it even sweeter. Pure joy wrapped in sugar!

Gym life became a priority, and I’m absolutely loving @clubstudiofitness! Their energizing classes, recovery room, and sauna have been a haven for my body and mind.

This month also reminded me of the power of rituals in maintaining mental health. I had a transformative consultation with @propheticsoulguideinc, exploring both inner and outer healing. It’s part of my journey to decolonize therapy and embrace the truth that healers come in many forms.

Another highlight was being invited by @ericacurrylmft to dive into Chinese medicine. I took a face reading class and later scheduled a reading. The insights into my 40s based on my nose were profound and uplifting. It’s inspiring to think about the future and how I can prepare myself now.

July 2025: A Month of Fashion Inspo, Cycles, Loss, and Renewal

This month, I found myself drawn to the fashion energies of the lion king & leopard print . 🐆✨

Yet, life brought its challenges. A lingering sickness left me homebound for weeks, staring out my window, confronting stillness, and reminding myself that a soul’s worth is not measured by productivity.

One of the most emotional milestones was our final improv performance of the year—and ever—at The Ledge Theatre. Being the only Black-owned improv theater in Los Angeles, its closure left a hole in the community and in our hearts. We performed with everything we had. Thank you to everyone who came out to support us or contributed financially. 😢

To find solace, I turned to the ocean. Healing through the element of water became my sanctuary, as the rhythmic waves mirrored the cycles I felt within myself.

This month also deepened my appreciation for true friendship. Spending time with Ferzee (@cannelacosmetictattoo) for some “lash life” and a luxury escape in the OC reminded me that the most real friendships are the ones that stand by you when you’re down. 💕

As a therapist, I’ve always understood emotional cycles intellectually, but this was the month I felt them—raw, shifting, and profound. Being sick recalibrated me, reminding me there’s always a way to connect back to self.

And to close the month with joy, I got to experience @therealdjmickey spinning an incredible set at @thelpn -a true blessing. 🎶✨
