You're running on empty but still expected to keep everyone else's world spinning. (How is that fair, exactly?)
Your body feels stuck in permanent fight-or-flight mode — heart racing, shoulders permanently up around your ears, and sleep that feels more like "laying down with your eyes closed while your brain runs a marathon."
You've tried bubble baths (interrupted), yoga videos (also interrupted), and the classic "just take a break" advice. (Sure, right after I reschedule my child's meltdown and ask the washing to do itself.)
But when your nervous system has been in survival mode for years, surface solutions don't work.
If you're nodding along thinking "Finally, someone who gets it" — you're in the right place.
A few years ago, my burnout was so severe I ended up in rehab. I lost my business, my home, and contact with my kids.
That rock bottom became my turning point.
Through somatic healing, I learned that my nervous system wasn't broken — it just needed the right tools. Tools that work in real-life chaos, not silent retreats (although ask me about the silent retreat I tried).
Now I combine 20+ years of professional experience supporting families with lived experience as a special needs mum who rebuilt from nothing.
The result? The world's first somatic healing program designed specifically for mums like us.
Because no mum should have to hit rock bottom to find calm.
A step-by-step method to move from survival mode to grounded calm — even in the chaos.
The ANCHOR System™ isn't about adding more to your already overwhelming schedule. It's about giving your nervous system the specific tools it needs to feel safe again.
🔹 A — Awareness of your nervous system patterns
🔹 N — Nurturing your body back to safety
🔹 C — Calming techniques that work in real time (yep even while your child is having a meltdown in aisle 6)
🔹 H — Healing trauma stored in your body
🔹 O — Optimizing your daily rhythms
🔹 R — Rebuilding your foundation for long-term stability
The result? You'll finally have tools that work when your child is melting down in the supermarket, when you're advocating in another IEP meeting, and when life throws you the next inevitable curveball.
This isn't theory. It's practical, somatic healing designed for the reality of special needs parenting.
Weekly support + free resources for special needs mums who are tired of advice from people who clearly don't live in our beautifully chaotic world.
