The book that holds space for your chaos; and helps you love yourself anyway.
You’re not too much.
You’re not broken.
You’re not behind.
You’re a whole human finding your way back to yourself, through the mess, the fire, the mistakes, and the healing.
Written with the same raw honesty, deep compassion, and somatic wisdom that grounds my coaching practice, Hot Mess Empress - Your Guide to Falling Madly in Love with Yourself is an invitation to move from self-abandonment to radical self-devotion.
What This Book Holds
Hot Mess Empress is part memoir, part methodology, and part love letter to every woman, femme, or gender-diverse soul who has ever felt like they had to hold it all together while quietly falling apart inside.
It is rooted in the same framework I use in my 1:1 work, not as something to perfect, but as something to live into, at your own pace.
What's Inside
✧ Self Acceptance
Learn how to stop fighting yourself and begin understanding your nervous system, trauma responses, and inner parts with compassion instead of shame. This is where safety begins.
✧ Self Trust
Build clear, loving boundaries. Deepen emotional intelligence. Gently unravel the attachment patterns and conditioning that keep you disconnected from your needs and truth.
✧ Self Devotion
Reclaim your voice. Release inherited beliefs. Begin living from alignment, embodiment, and unapologetic self-trust — choosing yourself without apology.
This book gently guides you through the foundational work of becoming unapologetically devoted to yourself.
Filled with somatic practices, reflective inquiries, and simple rituals, Hot Mess Empress offers a grounded introduction to self-healing that honours your pace, your body, and your lived experience.
Hot Mess Empress is an invitation to begin gently, honestly, and in your own time.
