MY STORY
For most of my life, I was the strong one. The one people described as “mature for my age”. The one who could handle all kinds of difficult situations, stay calm and hold space for others when things became complicated. From the outside, that ability looked like strength but inside, it felt like constant survival.
My life didn’t have a major breakthrough moment from which my whole life changed — rather is it an accumulation of many ups and downs through the past 30 years. So allow me to tell you a little tale about what little Mi has been through, the beliefs she created early on and maybe you can even find some similarities and realize, why you are here today.
Little Mi grew up in an environment where emotional and financial stability was never guaranteed and she had no role models on what a healthy relationship looks like — besides her grandparents, but that’s old school and doesn’t exist anymore, right?
She dragged herself to school everyday and she despised it. Everything seemed so pointless to her — besides art class, but art is not something you make a living with, right?
The kids bullied her almost every day. But she had to stay strong because her mum was battling breast cancer and you know, that is way bigger than her problems, isn’t it?
She learned, that her priority was to make sure everyone else around her fine and then she could be too.
She finished school, had to get a job but never found work she was truly passionate about, but you know you have to have a job to earn money don’t you? So she dragged herself to work everyday, like she did to school…
One day she came across this chick on instagram that was a Holistic Health Coach and living the dream life in Hawaii. Mimi instantly felt that this is something she wanted herself — living a happy healthy life and helping others do the same... but that’s not realistic, isn’t it?
It wasn’t until her first solo trip to Thailand where she really discovered what living feels like. She realized that there is more to life than just surviving every day, working a job that you hate, not taking care of your body, mind and soul, maintaining unhealthy relationships and ignoring her souls calling.
What followed were years of ups and downs, rapid weight gain and loss, jumping between birthing ideas and burying loved ones, starting and ending relationships, multiple trainings on how to heal body, mind and spirit, many beautiful travels across the globe, learning more about herself, the universe and how everything is interconnected.
The real turning point came when she began working with her nervous system instead of only trying to understand things through my mind.
She started to see how deeply survival patterns live in our nervous system. The tension we carry, the boundaries we struggle to express, the poor money management, the jobs and relationships we stay in too long — all of it is shaped by patterns the body learned earlier in life to keep us safe.
This understanding fundamentally changed the way she moves through life, now living a happy and healthy one — not yet in a tropical place but all in due timing ;)
Today my work integrates everything I have lived and studied — somatic awareness, nervous system science, energy healing and body-based emotional work. I work with people, who have spent much of their lives being the steady one for others, helping them reconnect with their body and develop a deeper sense of internal stability. This work is about creating the conditions where your body can return to its natural state of balance, clarity and self-trust, so you’ll have the ability to live a happy healthy life too! :)
That is the space I hold.
