FINDING CALM IN THE CHAOS

MOTHERHOOD, HOME + HEALING

Welcome to my blog, mama. This is a space where I share what I’ve learned (and am still learning) about healing, breaking cycles, and finding myself again in the middle of motherhood. I’m a yoga teacher, reiki practitioner, and content creator – but most importantly, I’m a mom who’s walked through trauma and is figuring out how to reconnect with her truest self.

Here you’ll find little tools, stories, and practices that have helped me bring more calm, healing, and joy into the chaos of everyday life. Think: nervous system resets, inner child work, and honest conversations about motherhood and growth.

My hope is that when you land here, you feel a little less alone and a little more supported as you walk your own healing journey.

I’m Katie – a yoga teacher, reiki practitioner, content creator and mama of 3 in San Diego.

This little corner of the internet is where I share the tools, stories, and practices that have helped me
heal, break cycles and find myself again in the middle of motherhood.

Think of it as one mama passing along what’s actually worked – no perfection, no gatekeeping, just honest support and real-life healing.
