Growing up working in my family's business, I didn't get the luxury of figuring out who I was before I had to lead. That came first make decisions, lead, empower, put structures and systems in place.

In my twenties, I left Brazil for London with nothing but a one-way ticket and started over: new language, new culture, a new way of being in the world.

Four years in, I'd built a thriving practice as a massage therapist. It was successful by every visible measure and falling apart in private. I worked so hard I stopped listening to my own body. I had to pause, relearn how to care for myself before I could keep caring for anyone else.

That pause changed everything.

Since then I've worn a lot of hats project manager, personal assistant, organisational systems developer working behind the scenes for an international company and with facilitators, coaches and therapists building their own practices. And because I've been the therapist and the person building the backend, I can see exactly where Solopreneurs in alternative therapy, healing, and creative work lose themselves: the same passion that drew them in becomes the thing that burns them out.

I believe the opposite is possible. I believe anyone in this field can build a career that's profitable, sustainable, and beautiful when they lead from what they know to be true, build with confidence, and let how they show up in the world be the foundation of the business.

That's the work I do now: assisting holistic practitioners, facilitators, therapists, and creatives build businesses that don't cost them their bodies to run or their confidence to shatter.

If you're ready to create that kind of change, it starts the same way mine did by reconnecting with your body, your energy, and the world around you. From there, everything else your business, your life, your health and wealth will follow.
