(Read that again! YUP, boundaries can feel good! I said what I said!)
I'm talking about cellular level kind of boundary setting.
IN-YOUR-BONES-I-DESERVE-TO-TAKE-UP-SPACE-AND-SPEAK-MY-TRUTH-KIND-OF-CONFIDENCE!
Welcome to the world of Embodied Boundaries,
Dear One!
It's no surprise that so many of us these days:
✦ experience imposter syndrome, mental health concerns, and resort to people-pleasing over self-care.
✦ feel so traumatized, we can't speak up.
✦respond from a place of reflexive self-defence, or not at all.
✦choose to stay silent more, advocate less, & speak up for ourselves less. (especially women and further marginalized groups).
✦are suffering from exhaustion and burnout in staggering numbers.
(...Seriously, your vocal cords and throat muscles are legit controlled by your nervous system!)
The challenges you have with speaking up and holding sustainable boundaries may not be your fault (they aren't) ...
BUT... if you wanna make speaking up and holding your ground a regular thing, embodying reparation and healing IS your choice and responsibility.
For the past 20+ years, I've been helping people like you embody the magic of their inner knowing so they can live and share from a place of resourced wholeness, and confidently speak up in life and work.
Until 12 years ago, I spent the better part of my life people pleasing and staying silent rather than speaking up and using my voice.
Growing up in a large body, I would become anything others wanted me to be to avoid being bullied or harmed, (including not advocating for myself while being the butt end of a joke).
BOUNDARIES??? WHAT BOUNDARIES?
Even in my career, though I was coaching others to speak up and use their voices, I was buying into the narrative that I shouldn't be using mine.
Those cultural narratives and traumas run DEEP, don't they?
Living under such pressure wasn't great for my nervous system, and I know our nervous system plays a big role in our truth speaking abilities!
12 years ago, I started practicing and studying somatic healing, particularly how our nervous systems play a big role in being able to access our voices.
It was through this somatic work that I was able to finally combine my training as a life coach and vocalist/performer/voice coach into something that made airtight sense, AND helped people like myself, who needed support in speaking up and setting boundaries.
People often ask me how I became so confident in my truth speaking and my answer is always: "Boundaries and somatic work".
Our nervous systems and bodies are WISE AF. The secret to our aligned and empowered lives is to listen to that wisdom!

"I was struggling with celebrating myself and believing my voice was worth sharing. It was empowering to open up and share my truth and struggles. Since this opening, I’m empowered to speak up and trust my voice."
NIKKI ROSE MARTIN - ACTOR/MUSICIAN/TEACHER/
WRITER/DANCER
"Prior to working with Elise, I was struggling to identify who I really am, what I do, and where I want to go with my creative ventures. I was able to let go of some of my fears around perfection or looking silly, and sink into what it meant to identify myself, my desires, and my goals. Elise guided me, with a beautifully gentle hand, through some exercises that helped shift my perspective from being a passive character in my own life, to a much more active one. She helped me create a purposeful mantra to remind myself of what I no longer need, and where I really want to go. I highly recommend working with Elise if you struggle with communicating not only with others, but also with yourself, and stripping away the limiting beliefs that society has made you believe about yourself. "

Maybe NO comes easier to you, but after you express it you feel regretful and the need to explain why or make sure the other party involved isn’t unhappy with you OR maybe your NO is aggressive and leaves shame in it's wake.
This is rooted in that deep inner knowing that you have something valuable to say and that you are worthy of carving out time and space for yourself. Boundary bad-assery is: the ability to trust the wisdom of your body to share your truth AND hold the experience of others as true, too!

You're done giving your power away, or taking others' power from them.
You're done buying into the beliefs that systemic narratives have burdened you with that say; boundaries are selfish and over bearing.

“Fabulous! Empowering! Freeing!
I’ve discovered that this work is the path to more of everything, and that it’s less about mindset and more about training my body that it’s safe to express myself. Elise gets to the root fast by encouraging me to be present to the wisdom of my body.”
- Sara kelly, heart based business mentor
“Elise’s guidance allowed me to uncover and find a part of my voice that had long been forgotten. I was able to find power in my vulnerability and more acceptance in ALL parts of myself and I can show up even more fully in my work, my relationships and the world!”
- STEPHANIE PETERS BARTLETT - PHD CANDIDATE & RECONCILIATION COACH
"Before working with Elise, something in my body or subconscious was holding me back - literally. My throat would often feel like it was closing in or blocked when I was talking. I had a call with Elise that was so transformational, it raised my awareness of my body wisdom and love for my whole self. Anyone on the fence about doing this work, DO IT! I have no doubt that Elise could lead anyone through their limiting beliefs towards full body expression. Who wouldn’t want that?"
