Less Hustle, More Flow.

For years, I pushed through my body's red flags. I believed that success meant working harder, doing more, and constantly proving myself. But beneath the surface, it was never enough. I was always seeking the next level of validation. After decades of hustle, my nervous system was fried. No amount of mindset work could override the exhaustion, stress, and self-doubt that kept creeping in, leaving me feeling stuck in a stress cycle of burnout.

For years I ignored the warnings and suffered from chronic pain, migraines, emotional overwhelm and a host of other issues that I now know were my nervous system begging me to slow my roll. The truth was, slowing down didn't feel safe for my subconscious. 

Everything changed when I discovered applied neurology. I started being able to heal blocked energy and emotions that had been dormant in my body for years. I was finally able to reconnect with my true self and unravel the layers of the "should" I had worn trying to conform to social pressure. Now, I blend science and soul with a sprinkle of creative flair to help others do the same.

Hi, I'm C.J.

For over 15 years, I’ve studied the science of human potential—melding mindset, applied neurology, and trauma-informed wellness tools to help people break through limitations and step into their most powerful, regulated selves. My approach blends neuroscience, intuition, creative play and real-life experience to create deep, lasting transformation at the level of the mind, body and soul.

I work with clients to rewire their nervous systems, release survival-based patterns, and build resilience so they can actually reach their goals without burning out. It’s not about pushing harder—it’s about working with your brain and body to create sustainable success.

How do you know if we’re a fit?

Dream BIG and make it all happen—without the toxic hustle. I can help you to move through life with ease, confidence, and clarity by aligning with your intuition, regulating the nervous system, and reprogramming  beliefs at the deepest level.

I’ll help you uncover your strengths, break through the blind spots keeping you stuck, and create a life that feels good while still getting results. Because here’s the truth—you’re more creati than you think, and I can help you tap into that magic.

Your Nervous System Bestie

If your nervous system had a ride-or-die, it would be me. I’m here to help you shift out of stress, overwhelm, and burnout—not by pushing harder, but by working with your brain and body to create real, lasting change. I blend science, intuition, and play to help you rewire old patterns, regulate your emotions, and show up as your most powerful, aligned self.

I’ve been around the block a few times (literally). My travels have taken me across Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia, India, Rwanda, and even on a 32,000 km road trip around North America. I’ve witnessed firsthand the power of resilience and community across cultures, and that deeply informs my work.

I’m also a solo parent to two amazing kids, which means I get the chaos, the exhaustion, and the deep love that fuels it all. I know what it’s like to be stretched thin, to question if you’re doing enough, and to feel the weight of the world on your shoulders. I also know how to make it all feel lighter.

Before stepping into this work, I spent four years as a 911 operator and police dispatcher. That job taught me how to stay calm under pressure, trust my intuition, and communicate in a way that helps people feel safe—skills I bring into every session I offer.

When I’m not geeking out over the nervous system or helping people break through old patterns, you’ll find me laughing with friends, advocating for social justice, or finding new ways to bring more ease and joy into everyday life.

If you’re ready to stop running on empty and start moving through life with more clarity, energy, and ease, I’m here for you. Let’s do this thaaaaaang.
