Something new is here ✨

I’ve been wanting to bring ASMR more intentionally into This Is The CC for a while, and today I’m officially launching This Is The CC ASMR + Breathwork on YouTube.

My first video combines gentle breathwork, soft-spoken guidance, and water sounds to create a space where you can slow down, get comfortable, and simply receive for a little while.

ASMR has felt like such a natural extension of the sensory side of my work. I’m excited to use this channel to explore breath and sensory experiences, real-person ASMR, therapeutic touch, roleplays, and all kinds of ways to play with sensation, rest, and receiving.

The first experience is ASMR Breathwork With Water Sounds So You Can Rest Easy.

If you could use 15 minutes to get out of your head and settle in, it’s waiting for you on YouTube now.

And if you watch, tell me what you want me to create next. I have plenty of ideas, but I’d love to know what you want to experience too.

This morning, I was looking back at some of the reviews from my first breathwork sessions in April 2023 and realized I’ve been facilitating this work for over three years now.

I remember how unsure I felt during some of those first sessions. And even before that, there was a version of me who was genuinely terrified by the idea of guiding people through any kind of experience, let alone a trauma informed breathwork experience.

It feels really sweet looking at that version of myself from where I am now.

In the last three years, I’ve guided hundreds of experiences. I’ve facilitated groups, workshops, one on one sessions, collaborations, and at one point guided an event of more than 50 people through an experience. I’ve received so much positive feedback and appreciation from people who have trusted me to hold space for them.

But what’s really sticking out to me most is how much I trust myself now.

I trust my training. I trust my presence. I feel more confident guiding these experiences and I’m not sitting there wondering if I’m capable of holding space the way I did in some of those early sessions. I know what I bring into the space.

Looking back at those first reviews has me connecting with all these younger versions of myself who really didn’t know if I could do it.

The version who was terrified to guide anyone.

The version who did it anyway but still questioned herself.

The version who kept showing up and gaining experience and finding her own way of facilitating this work.

I feel a lot of pride and admiration for those younger me’s today. I had no idea how many people I was eventually going to sit beside, breathe with, support and witness.

I’ve really come a long way.

It’s important for us to take time to honor how far we’ve come. Today, I’m making some space to celebrate myself.

If you can look backwards for yourself a moment, let me know how far you’ve come with something in the comments. I’d love to celebrate you too 💚

How much of your life have you spent trying to make sure no one is disappointed in you?

So much of people pleasing is learning to make decisions based on how other people might react. You say yes when you mean no. You stay longer than you want to. You convince yourself something is fine because admitting it’s not might upset someone else.

Chronic people pleasing will make you so used to keeping everyone else comfortable that your own discomfort starts to feel normal.

If you’ve ever found yourself here, I want you to know choosing yourself doesn’t mean you don’t care about other people. It means their feelings don’t always have to be the deciding factor in what you do with your life.

You are allowed to leave the job. Change your mind. Set the boundary. Take the trip. Say no. Make a choice someone else doesn’t understand. Their disappointment doesn’t automatically mean you made the wrong decision.

This is the kind of self trust I love exploring through breathwork and co-regulation. If this is something you’re working through too, you can learn more about working with me 1:1 or joining the Co-Regulation Community at thisisthecc.com.

When One Breath Institute invited me to be part of The Breath That Breaks the Silence, saying yes felt easy.

So much of my own healing has involved learning how to stay connected to myself through the parts of life that don’t have a clear resolution. Trauma, brain injury, chronic illness, burnout, grief… these experiences have taught me that healing isn’t about reaching some final destination where everything is suddenly okay. It’s about building a relationship with yourself that you can keep coming back to when life gets hard.

That’s why this summit feels so meaningful to me. These are conversations we need to have more openly, especially the ones about mental health, the experiences that leave us feeling alone, and the different ways we learn to keep going.

The Breath That Breaks the Silence is a free online summit hosted throughout the entire month of September in recognition of Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, bringing together more than 30 voices in mental health, trauma healing, somatic work, relational healing, and more.

My conversation is “When Healing Doesn’t Look Linear.”

If any of this resonates with you, I hope you’ll join us. Register for free at the link in the comments below.

The best healers I know work from lived experience.

They're people who've walked through some of the hardest parts of being human and somehow found a way to let those experiences soften them instead of harden them. They've learned to see light through their own darkness. They've come into a new way of being because of it.

It's not just that they've suffered. Everyone suffers. It's that they're willing to share themselves because of it.

They relate instead of rescue. They listen without trying to be the expert. They sit beside people instead of above them. They open up their own healing hearts to offer the kind of unconditional acceptance so many of us have spent our lives looking for.

I see that as one of the bravest things a person can do.

To take the parts of yourself that once hurt the most and let them become the very thing that helps someone else feel less alone.

That's what makes their work so powerful.
