Deconstructed
It's very different than destruction.

You built a life that made sense.
It wasn't perfect, but it worked.
It kept you safe.
It got you through.
It made you look strong on the outside even when your insides were quietly splintering.
You learned how to hold it together.
You became the fixer, the achiever, the capable one.
You performed the version of yourself the world could handle - and you survived.
But survival isn't the same as living.
And now something inside you is whispering—
or maybe screaming—
This isn't it.
You've outgrown the mask.
The armor is heavy.
The life you constructed so carefully no longer fits.
And so begins the undoing.
It's not happening because you failed,
but because you're finally ready to stop performing and start becoming.
This is what it means to be deconstructed.
It means taking a wrecking ball to the parts of you built out of other people's expectations.
It means dismantling the beliefs that were handed to you before you were old enough to question them.
It means tearing down every "should" you ever swallowed just to be accepted.
And then—
it means sitting in the rubble.
Not rushing to rebuild.
Not reaching for a blueprint.
Just breathing.
Just being.
Just listening for your own voice, the one that's been buried under a thousand layers of should.
This is the holy unraveling.
This is the sacred mess.
This is the becoming-before-the-becoming.
This is the work I do.
I don't offer step-by-step systems to turn you into someone you never wanted to be.
I don't sell quick fixes or promises of instant clarity.
I don't coach the version of you that's still trying to please everyone else.
I coach the one underneath.
I coach the parts of you that are ready to be seen without a mask,
the one who's willing to sit in the discomfort of undoing—because she knows what comes next is worth everything.
I will walk with you through the collapse.
I will hold space for your undoing.
I will not rush your process, but I will not let you hide from it either.
Because you don't need to be rebuilt.
You need to be reclaimed.
You don't need to start over.
You need to return -
return to the bones of who you were before the performance,
to the voice that existed before the noise.
to the truth that waited patiently under every layer of becoming.
If you are ready to tear it all down—
not because you're broken,
but because you're done pretending—
then I'm ready too.
Let's deconstruct the life that isn't yours.
Let's unmake what no longer serves.
Let's clear the space where your real self is finally allowed to rise.
This is not destruction.
This is sacred release.
This is freedom.
This is the work
