Hello

I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.

I’m a social worker and feminist, and my work lives at the intersection of trauma, emotional truth, and radical self-healing. For years, I supported people navigating complex trauma, anxiety, and the often quiet, isolating aftermath of family violence. In all of it, I kept seeing the same pattern: the world asks a lot from us — especially womxn and caregivers — but offers very little space to feel, or be safe.

When I discovered Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), I was amazed and excited. Tapping felt like witchcraft. So gentle, natural and impactful. Like something our great-grandmothers would’ve known, had it not been stripped from them. It was simple, it was powerful, and it worked. It helped me feel at home within myself, regardless of what was happening in the outside world.

There’s a reason emotional work has been belittled, and a reason womxn have been told they’re “too much,” “too emotional,” or “too sensitive.” Feeling deeply is powerful. Naming your pain is powerful. Tending to your nervous system? That’s revolutionary. And in a world that benefits from our disconnection, reclaiming that connection — to ourselves, to our bodies, to our truth — is a kind of quiet rebellion.

This space is for those who are ready to come home to themselves, or curious about what that might mean. Whether you’re healing from trauma, dealing with overwhelm, or just looking for a space where your feelings are not only welcome but honored — you’re in the right place.

You don’t have to earn your healing. You don’t have to do it perfectly. And you don’t have to do it alone.

Let’s tap into something deeper, together.

With care, solidarity, and a little bit of magic,
— Kate

Hey, I’m Kate — and this wild spirit is Rilla

I’ve always been a homebody — I love being home. I know that’s a privilege. For me, home has mostly been a safe place. But I also know that’s not true for everyone. In fact, for many women and children in Australia, home is one of the most dangerous places to be.

Safety shouldn’t be a luxury. And yet, so often, it is.

There are so many things we can’t control — systems, relationships, histories that have shaped our sense of what’s safe and what’s not. But one thing we can begin to nurture is a sense of safety within ourselves. Not as a way to ignore the world or pretend everything’s okay — but as a quiet act of care and reclamation. A place to land. A way to feel steady, even when things around us are not.

Coming home to yourself doesn’t erase the harm that’s been done — but it can be a way to anchor yourself in the present. And sometimes, that inner steadiness is what gives us the space to imagine, demand, or create a bit more safety and peace in the rest of our lives.
