Warrior Sister...

For years, I carried an untamed, wandering heart. A gypsy heart, always searching, never fully at rest. Hyper-independence wasn’t a choice—it was a trauma response. I learned to rely on myself because life had shown me that people let you down.

But what I didn’t realize was that this relentless need to control, to lead, to guard myself at all costs—was the very thing keeping me from the love, peace, and partnership I deeply desired.

This is my Taming the Gypsy Heart journey—the path to breaking free from trauma, reclaiming my feminine energy, and learning the true meaning of trust, love, and surrender.

How Trauma Creates a Gypsy Heart

A gypsy heart isn’t about a love for adventure—it’s about a fear of stillness. A fear that if we stop, if we soften, if we let down our walls… we’ll be left exposed and vulnerable.

🚨 Signs of a Gypsy Heart & Trauma Response:

Always needing to be in control
Struggling to trust others, especially in relationships
Living in a masculine energy mode (leading instead of flowing)
Feeling like you have to do it all alone
Avoiding emotional intimacy and keeping walls up

I lived this way for years. Until 2014, when something completely unexpected began my healing journey—dance lessons.

The Moment Everything Changed

In 2014, my husband and I signed up for ballroom dance lessons—just for fun. I thought it would be a great date night activity, but I had no idea it would become the moment my walls started to fall.

Because in dance, the man leads.

And I had spent my whole life leading.

I resisted. I wanted to anticipate his steps. I wanted to control the movement. But dance doesn’t work that way. I had to trust. I had to let go.

And in doing so, I realized: I had been fighting against the very thing I deeply desired—connection, intimacy, and partnership.

Healing & Reclaiming My Feminine Energy

Taming the Gypsy Heart isn’t about losing independence—it’s about finding the strength in surrender. It’s about:

✨ Softening without losing strength ✨ Trusting without fear of being let down ✨ Leaning into feminine energy without losing identity ✨ Embracing partnership without giving up power

Through faith, self-work, and deep healing, I transformed my marriage, my mindset, and my heart. And now, I share this journey with women just like you—women who are ready to release the need for control and step into the fullness of love and wholeness.
