MY STORY

A woman practicing yoga or meditation in a dimly lit room with candles and a flower arrangement on the floor, near a large window with a view of trees and a grassy area outside.
A woman with curly light brown hair, wearing earrings and a necklace, sitting with her eyes closed, smiling slightly, against a brick wall background.

Hi, I am Claudia - Embodiment Mentor, Reiki Practitioner & Facilitator of Women’s Retreats and Circles.

There was a time when I was completely disconnected from life, my body, my dreams, my truth - and I didn’t even realize it.

I had followed all the rules.I studied hard, earned a Master’s in International Development, and built a career inside international organizations advocating for social change.

On the outside, it all looked good. But on the inside, I was tight. Tired.
Living from the neck up. Surviving on performance, adrenaline and overthinking.
I was hustling and achieving - but not feeling.
Not listening.
Not living.

I had no idea how deeply I had abandoned myself. My boundaries were blurred. My body felt foreign. My intuition was muted. And my creativity? Nowhere to be found. Until life cracked me open… as a Cancer sign and a Manifestor, I’ve always sensed this deep longing for more depth, joy, color, and independence in my life. I knew there was so much more I wanted to experience, feel, and create.

A woman lying on a dark couch, making a peace sign with her hand near her face, wearing a black tank top and jewelry, in black and white.

What followed was a long, devoted return.
To my body. To the wisdom I had buried under pressure and performance. To the parts of me that had been waiting to be felt. To the powerful creation force within, to Spirit.

I immersed myself in personal development, somatic work, body-based therapies, psychotherapy, spiritual practice, nervous system healing, feminine embodiment, shamanic energy work, and nature’s quiet rhythms.
I trained in Energy Work. Completed a Women’s Embodiment & Empowerment Coaching Training. And slowly, gently - I came back to myself.

I remembered the deeper truth: That everything is connected. That the body is not separate from the soul and the soul is not separate from Spirit. That wholeness is not something we find - it’s something we return to.

Now, I hold safe and powerful spaces for other women who are ready to come back to their own truth.

To soften into their bodies.
To awaken their creative force.
To feel what’s been held.
To reclaim what’s been forgotten.
To build the life they were always meant to live -
not from pressure, but from presence.
Not from striving, but from soul.

This is embodiment.
This is the work.
This is the way back - to yourself, to your rhythm, to your life.

Are you ready to return?


THE EMBODIED PATH

I realized I couldn’t think or talk my way into healing anymore. I didn’t need more answers - I needed to feel. I needed to come back into my body I had spent years ignoring.

That was the turning point.
When I stopped searching for truth in books, in logic, in over-efforting - and started listening to the language of my own body.
The way my breath revealed what I had silenced.
The way my belly held stories my mind couldn’t name.
The way my nervous system begged for safety, rhythm, and presence.

That’s when embodiment became my path.

It was not about “fixing” myself.
It was about returning - to the wisdom I had carried all along.
My body became the temple. My oracle. My wisdom keeper.
The missing link between me and my Soul - between me and Spirit.

Soma. Soul. Spirit. The trinity I never knew I needed. When these began to move in harmony, I stopped trying to be someone else.
I no longer had to perform healing - I am living it.

Embodiment gave me access to parts of myself that years of intellectual seeking couldn’t reach. It reconnected me with my intuition, my boundaries, my creative fire, and the rhythms of nature pulsing through my cells. It grounded me into this moment - and reminded me that this is where my Soul & Spirit lives.

This is why I do this work. Because it’s not about being more productive.
It’s about becoming more you.

And from there - everything changes.
Your relationships. Your leadership. Your joy. Your creations.Your capacity to feel, to rest, to express, to expand.

Embodiment is not just a practice. It’s a remembering. A homecoming.
A radical act of devotion to your own aliveness and to creation.

Today, I live in connection with my body, my emotions, my creative force and my own rhythm. I live in alignment with my Soma. Soul & Spirit and this is my truth.

Not because everything is perfect - but because I’ve learned to stay with myself, to listen deeply, and to move from a place of truth rather than pressure.

I trust my body as my compass.
I trust my energy.
And I trust that life flows when we return to what’s real inside us.

My relationships, my work, and my entire way of living & being have shifted - from over-efforting and overthinking to something softer, deeper, and more aligned with who I really am.

There is nothing more fulfilling to me
than supporting women who know they are here for more -
more depth, more truth, more self-trust, and more creative freedom.
Women who are ready to reclaim their rhythm,
awaken their creative force,
and build lives that are rooted in who they truly are.

This is the path of embodiment.
And it changes everything - from the inside out.

If something in your body says yes,
I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
To support you in coming home to yourself,
so you can live, lead, and create the life that’s waiting for you.
