Reclaiming Sovereignty: Time, Truth, and the Sacred Simplicity of Doing Less

There’s a quiet revolution happening in my life right now.

It didn’t come with fanfare or fireworks.
It came with a decision: I no longer belong to the clock.

As a mother, as a practitioner, as a woman reclaiming her truth—I’ve stepped out of the systems that once dictated how we live, learn, and labor.
And in that stepping out, I found something that the world rarely offers freely:

Sovereignty.

Not the abstract kind.
But the real, embodied kind—
Where your nervous system exhales because the alarm didn’t go off.
Where breakfast is apples and feijoas picked barefoot from the garden.
Where the classroom is wherever curiosity leads us that day.
And where the impact I create in the world doesn’t rely on grinding harder or packing my calendar with back-to-back sessions.

For years, I moved through life with a sense of being pulled—by expectations, systems, and schedules that weren’t mine.
I felt it in my body:

• A rush in the mornings that never felt good.

• Tightness in my breath when I dropped my son off at school, knowing our time felt rushed and fractured.

• The guilt of not wanting to do another 1:1 call when my soul was calling for stillness.

• A deep ache when I realized how much of my energy had been outsourced to institutions that didn’t see the sacredness of our pace, our presence, or our path.

The medical system told me what was "normal."
The educational system told me what was "essential."
And for a while, I listened. Until my body—and my son—started asking for something else.

That “something else” is the true terrain of sovereignty.

It’s not about fighting a system.
It’s about unplugging from the illusion that you need it to validate your life.

We now rise when our bodies feel ready.
We learn when wonder is alive in the room—not when the bell rings.
We move through the day as a family, not in fractured roles of worker, student, mother, provider.

And yes—I’m working less.
But I’m not impacting less.

If anything, I’ve become more potent in my service.
Because when my body is in its rhythm, my work is cleaner.
When I’m nourished, my message is clearer.
And when I’m grounded in my own timing, I magnetize those who are ready to live from theirs.

This is what sovereignty looks like now:

🌿 Teaching my son to follow his instincts, not a timetable.
🌿 Choosing when and how I serve, without apology.
🌿 Trusting that the more I am me, the more the world receives what it truly needs.
🌿 Letting my nervous system guide my pace—not capitalism.
🌿 Being deeply attuned to the truth that doing less often creates more ripples.

There’s a freedom here that no institution can give you—and none can take away.

This isn’t just about homeschooling.
It’s about homecoming.

To rhythm.
To trust.
To a body that no longer runs on urgency.
To a child that sees freedom modeled, not just spoken about.
To a life where time is sacred—not scarce.

I don’t just teach sovereignty. I live it.

And every day, I choose it again—with every breath, every boundary, and every beautiful, unhurried morning.

I live what I teach, but I didn't always. 

And my story is 40yrs deep, with medical and educational trauma, psychological and sexual abuse, where shame ruled every decision I ever made. 

But NO MORE, I have crafted and birthed a life I adore, a body I admire, a family I want to spend all my time with and a business that gives, as much as it receives. 

This is a revolution.
