You can’t sleep. The anxiety is relentless. Your body is constantly tensed for impact.

But you're still holding it all together--the reliable one, the competent and dependable friend, high-functioning until the end. No one might guess how frayed you feel inside.

You've tried everything but nothing seems to stick, and maybe you're starting to wonder if you're a little broken or defective.

Breathe a sigh of relief, because you definitely aren't. Your nervous system is just stuck in survival mode—trained by culture, by trauma, by the continuous grind of performance.

When you break that pattern and teach your body a new way to live--calm, centered, relaxed--you don’t just get relief from anxiety. You finally feel at home in yourself.

This is the work that I do. And if this resonates, welcome. I'm glad you're here.

WHO AM I?

Hi, I'm Sukie.

42% equestrian, 17% forest witch, 61% relentless question-asker.

(Wait, do those numbers add up? I was never good at math.)

For over 20 years, I’ve been obsessed with how humans reclaim their bodies, voices, and space in a culture that trains us to disconnect.

With how we can be more human in a world that is increasingly dehumanizing.

And how we can find our way home to ourselves in the face of systems that profit from our disconnection.

My work has taken me from clinical bodywork to trauma healing, from neurobiology to exploring how culture lives in the body.

Along the way I’ve worked with professionals from top tech companies such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft and been featured in publications like Forbes, Chopra, and Practical Horseman.

My videos have impacted millions through YouTube (perhaps that's how you found me, so happy you're here!).

But more importantly? I’ve lived this.

(More on my story below.)

My people aren't just anxious--they carry an ancestral, primal ache, a longing to come home to their bodies, to land, and to rhythms more primitive and nourishing than productivity or performance.

This isn’t a method with a shiny label. It’s a living practice of belonging, cultivated through decades of study and hands-on experience.

HOW I GOT HERE

I could say this began with 15 years of clinical bodywork practice—but really, it started with horses.

They were my safe space growing up, when I felt like a misfit in school, never quite belonging anywhere else.

I rode every weekend, often traveling for shows and competitions. When I went away to college and couldn’t afford to keep riding, I was left with a giant hole in my life and a deep ache I didn’t know how to fill.

So, I hurled myself into rowing—six days a week, 4 a.m. practices, and grueling workouts.

On paper, I was strong, but inside, I was unraveling. I thought belonging was waiting on the other side of intensely hard work.

Spoiler alert: it wasn’t.

Eventually, my body broke down. I took it as a personal failing, but fortunately my mother did not.

She had found relief from her own injuries through something called “Rolfing,” and recommended I make an appointment.

I expected physical relief. What I didn’t expect was inner liberation.

During my first session, a deep calm took anchor inside me. I could finally breathe. For the first time ever, I felt at home in my own skin.

I was hooked and went on to study and practice Rolfing for more than a decade. But the deeper I went, the clearer it became that the pain my clients experienced wasn’t just about physical tension.

It was about how culture trains us to shrink, to disconnect, to contort ourselves and disappear the parts that don’t fit the mold.

About how we’ve been taught to suppress our humanity and behave like machines, separate from nature and her rhythms.

Through my own searching—attending dozens of courses, reading countless books, and doing thousands of client sessions—I discovered something more complex than pain or posture.

I uncovered an ancestral longing for connection. A subterranean craving not for shiny trinkets and societal trophies, but for a return to innate wholeness.

That realization changed everything. I transitioned out of my clinical practice and began teaching what I had learned so that the power of this work would be available to my clients at any time.

My work melds movement, sensory awareness, and systems thinking to rewire stress and survival patterns at their root.

This goes beyond chasing symptoms. It’s about remembering your wildness—the part of you that refuses to be domesticated, that longs for connection and resonance.

When you heed that call, you can finally reclaim the space you were always meant to take up.
