Asma

When Asma* first found me, she was the the classic high-achieving woman:

💻 A successful IT professional

⚡ Always on the go

💔 Quietly running on empty

Her life was full of activities but she was exhausted, in pain, and had been living mostly on a liquid diet due to her Crohn’s disease.

She was on long-term steroids, her marriage was struggling, and she felt no one had her back.

She used to “think” her feelings.

She had buried them deep down because she was so busy.

She was too busy to feel.

Yet she invested in email therapy, Qur'an courses, digital courses to learn meditation.

She still couldn't feel.
She just knew there was something more to her life

She just didn’t know what that “more” was.

When Asma found me, we began by slowing everything down.

I didn't talk to her about her marriage, her gut, her job.

Instead I just gave her space to talk about what she wanted to talk about.

I asked her why she thought she was so burnt out.

I also guided her to sit in silence and reconnect with her breath.

I told her she didn't have to recite anything

I said let's just keep meditation simple

She confessed to me that although she had bought all these digital courses she had not watched them.

When she was comfortable sitting in silence, I then asked her to scan her body. She discovered the elements within her —
🔥 Fire
💧 Water
🌍 Earth
🌬️ Air

TOGETHER using these 4 elements we untangled the trapped energy in her gut — the place she had stored 7 years of unspoken emotions.

We used breathwork, breathing fire, earth, water or air to UNTANGLE the energy that to her and me felt like tangled knots.

I asked her the questions she had been too afraid to ask.

She had so many in relation to God, her brother, her mother.

Slowly, she began to listen to her body again — to hear its wisdom rather than silence it with busyness.

Over the 18 months we worked together (on and off), Asma began to transform.

🌟 She received two pay rises at work.

💞 She reconnected with her husband because she started saying how she felt and he was able to feel her presence instead of this human doing. They fell in love again and went to a rock concert. She giggled. I feel like I am dating him again.

🍲 She became pain-free, steroid-free, and could finally enjoy real solid food again.

✨ What I found the most beautiful of all she rediscovered her calling — to be a patient advocate for women living with Crohn’s disease. She gives talks all across the US.

Asma came to me burnt out, disconnected from her body she was doing SO much but didn't feel like she was achieving anything

She now lives her life fired up — aligned with her true purpose, grounded in her body, and guided by her heart.

Her story reminds me every time:

When a woman slows down long enough..she doesn’t lose her power — she returns to it. 🩷
