letters encouraging you to release perfectionism, embrace your humanness, and live more intuitively

Love, Simi

you’re not that special [unexpected encouragement inside]

I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been chatting with a client when she shared with me that she feels like she’s the exception to the rule. Everyone else has permission to wear a swimsuit when they have cellulite on their body… but not her. She’s got to have skin that looks like…

What (most of) life is all about

How do you feel in the little, quiet, everyday moments of life? I’m taking a few weeks away from my personal Instagram, which has been so nice. I love that Instagram reminds me of all the wonderful, big moments going on in people’s lives: like new jobs, a program launch, a pregnancy announcement, moves, wedding photos, or…

‘Modification’ Is Not A Dirty Word

Last night, I got to be a guest coach for a group led by my friends Jules and Holly. We chatted all about creating a joy-filled, intuitive relationship with movement (it was so fun). I’m so passionate about this topic, as I truly feel we ALL deserve ease + joy in our relationships with movement & rest….

Taking your healing, change, growth to the next level [one simple step here]

At least once a day I get a message from someone sharing that they’ve read all the books about intuitive eating, they’re practicing all the affirmations to prioritize rest, they’ve listened to all the self-help podcasts, and/or they are finally promising themselves that they deserve to experience joy + freedom today. Then they go on…

What messages are your clothes sending your body?

All day long, whether you’re looking in a mirror or not, your clothes are sending messages to your body. Close your eyes and do a body scan right now. How do your clothes feel on your body? And what thoughts does it bring up for you? How does it make you feel in your body…

your humanness is not an inconvenience

I had an incredible experience last week in the Mama Glow doula training. One thing I noticed during all the classes was how comfortable I felt to be myself, to meet my needs. To be human. We weren’t just allowed to move, stretch, eat, nurse babies, etc throughout the hours of classes each day but we were encouraged to…

How do I learn how to make the “right” choices with food and exercise?

Monday was the first day of my doula training with Mama Glow and it’s been so incredible. I’ve followed and admired Latham Thomas for years (since back in my corporate attorney days) and am so grateful for this opportunity to be in her presence + learn from her. At the very start of the week, Latham shared…

What I learned from two weeks away from social media…

I just wrapped up two weeks away from social media and, long story short…  It was a pretty incredible experience.  Months ago, when COVID started, I felt myself reaching for my phone more (and more) often. I’d find myself opening up Instagram or my text messages within minutes of waking up. I’d want to check…

Your workout shouldn’t make you feel like sh*t about yourself.

Yesterday, I got an email from a client in UNMEASURED sharing this… UNMEASURED is the first workout that hasn’t made me feel like sh*t about myself. Game-changing. Thank you!!! Just take a minute and let that sink in. REALLY sink in. Your workout shouldn’t make you feel like sh*t about yourself! What are some of the ways that…

‘When it feels like everything is falling apart, ‘When it feels like everything is falling apart, I’m still whole.’ 

A compassionate, loving affirmation for those moments when perfectionism is trying to drag you into the depths all or nothing mindset.

You are whole ✨
Out of nowhere, Osh has developed a new nighttime Out of nowhere, Osh has developed a new nighttime routine this past week. Over jammies, he puts on his bathrobe + wears Tevas & socks while eating a snack & reading his favorite dinosaur book. 

Last night when it was time for said ritual, the Tevas were nowhere to be found. 

Tim checked the room but didn’t find them. Osh said I should go look because I’m a ‘good hunter.’ High praise from the four year old dino lover. I went hunting. Under the bed, in the closet, throwing blankets, tossing toys. There were moments of frustration and defeat (because where the F are the Tevas) but I also wasn’t going to stop until I found them (because he has gone literally nowhere in them so the only thing that made sense is that they were there in the room). Eventually I found them, green lighting the bedtime routine.

Tim asked how I found them & I said, ‘I just knew they were there.’

Hope.

What in this life would you keep looking for if the only thing that made sense is that it is already here? What would you work towards, trust in, grow through, fight for, stand up for, let go of, release, seek? 

What is the only thing that makes sense, even when you can’t see it? 

Even when you’re looking under beds and tossing blankets and checking behind every door but you haven’t been able to wrap your hands around it yet? 

That’s hope. 

You give me so much hope: Because even if you can’t see it yet, the only thing that makes sense to me is that you are already enough. All of us are.

When you want to scream ‘where the F are the Tevas?!’ but you know the only thing that makes sense is that they are here somewhere so you keep looking... 

What keeps you looking? What gives you hope? What do you know is here even if you can’t see it yet? ✨
When I first started coaching almost a decade ago, When I first started coaching almost a decade ago, I heard that I needed to paint an "after" picture for clients. I needed to show you what life would look like "after" we'd worked together.

Yet one of the biggest lessons I've learned is that no two women are exactly alike. This work is not one size fits all. What it looks like for you will be different from what it looks like for me. That’s the beauty. 

Rather than trying to fit yourself into someone else's "should” or “after,” you get to discover the freedom to be who you truly are.

We are our own artists. I can paint a picture of my own experiences, hopes, dreams, challenges, growth, and life. But I cannot paint yours.

✨That is a wisdom and artistry that only you possess✨

Over time I realized that my job isn't to tell you what your life should look like + how you should get there. That's recreating the same problem in a new way.

Instead, it's my joy to ask you questions to connect with your wisdom & to empower you with tools + support as you find your voice to tell your story more beautifully, authentically, honestly, & more magically than anyone else ever could.

Where you are now is not a "before." When you get there it won't be an "after." These are all moments in your beautifully imperfect journey + life.

I'm here to help you develop the tools, skills, and practices to paint your own picture over and over again. A picture that shows who you truly are - not who someone else has told you that you "should" be.

That is what HELD (a coaching community + membership where we'll deepen self-trust, self-compassion, and self-connection + release perfectionism) is all about. 

Each month, we'll explore themes that came highly requested from all of you here. Themes like freedom from all or nothing mindset (January), rest (February), body image (March), and so much more.

It's a one-of-a-kind blend of transformational coaching, self-reflection, guided growth, compassionate support, authentic inspiration, loving encouragement, and community connection.

Doors open Friday (1/1)! Find all the details + a spot to add your name & email to the waitlist in my bio ♥️ can’t wait to invite you in!
