The day I realized healing and entrepreneurship follow the same rhythm.

For years, I lived in a world of meetings, deadlines, and deliverables.

As the Executive Director of a nonprofit, I sat in boardrooms filled with masculine energy  — bankers, construction developers, decision-makers.

My voice was steady. 

My spreadsheets were perfect.

I knew how to build a budget, defend a plan, and fight for funding.

But somewhere along the way, I lost touch with myself.

After my car accident, everything shifted. The pace I had lived by — push harder, do more, prove yourself — no longer worked. My body wouldn’t allow it. My spirit didn’t want it. Choosing to continue became too expensive emotionally. 

So I did something that terrified me (and my family, honestly):

I jumped. 

With no parachute, no exit strategy, no gameplan and no safety net. 

I left the familiar structure of employment and took a leap into the unknown. 

Where I landed was in the uncharted territory of entrepreneurship — and not just any business, but birthwork.

One moment, I was surrounded by suits and spreadsheets.

The next, I was holding space for women in labor — breathing with them, trusting the process, surrendering control.

The contrast was stunning.

I went from boardrooms to birthrooms. From masculine energy and metrics… to the sacred flow of the feminine.

And here’s what I’ve learned:

Both worlds require courage, presence, and trust.

Both demand vision and faith.

But this — this work — invites me to listen instead of lead, to feel instead of fix, and to honor the rhythms of creation itself.

Healing and entrepreneurship, I’ve discovered, are the same dance💃.

You let go, you leap, and you learn to trust that something beautiful will rise from what you’ve released.
