What If You Stopped Carrying It Alone?
Damn. This healing thing is the most layered onion I’ve ever seen. 😂 Just when I think I’ve peeled back enough, another layer shows up like, “Oh hey, didn’t think you were done, did ya?”
I’ve been deep in my own healing while holding space for others in theirs, and if I’ve learned anything, it’s this:
If you’re not in your body, you’re in your head. And that? That’s not where you wanna be.
Trusting yourself. Actually being yourself. Learning to love yourself the way you love others, to hold space for yourself the way you do for everyone else. To be vulnerable and powerful. Seen and safe. It’s a lot. And I’m here for it.
But then life throws something at you—a sickness, a setback, a season of slow—and suddenly, there’s another freaking layer of that onion waiting to be peeled.
That happened to me recently. I had no choice but to stop, to really get honest with myself. And wouldn’t you know it? Another damn layer. Another level of healing I didn’t even know I needed.
And I’m telling you this not because I want you to be like, “Oh no, Kim, are you okay?” I’m telling you this because this IS the work.
✨ Avoiding it won’t make it go away. It’ll just make that onion stinkier and grow more layers. ✨
I see you—the woman who wants to be seen but also kinda doesn’t. Who keeps it together for everyone else but secretly wonders, who’s holding me?
I see you because I am you.
And I need you to hear this: You don’t have to do this alone.
Healing, growth, and actually moving through the hard stuff isn’t meant to be done in isolation. Finding the right people—the ones who see you, who get you, who can hold space for your unraveling and your rebuilding—is everything. That's community and the medicine. That’s why I do the work I do.
It’s why I co-created EmpowHER Circle—because I know how powerful it is to be surrounded by women who just get it and want to support others and be lifted up as well. It’s why my Unlocked & Empowered coaching and somatic work focus on getting out of your head and back into your body—because that’s where the real transformation happens.
So if you’ve been carrying it all alone, if you’ve been waiting for the right time to start peeling back your own layers, here’s your sign:
Take a breath. You’re doing the work. And that work is working. And when you’re ready? There’s space for you here.
