Finding Delicate Balance
Photo credit: Maxwell Ward Photography
There was a time when I thought balance meant doing it all — staying strong, staying busy, holding it together.
But life, motherhood, and the quiet wisdom of animals have taught me something very different. Balance isn’t about holding everything perfectly still. It’s about learning to move with what is — to breathe, to listen, and to allow.
Welcome to Delicate Balance LLC.
This is a space where healing meets intuition, where stories of horses and heart remind us that there is beauty in slowing down. My hope is that you’ll find pieces of yourself here — pieces that feel seen, supported, and inspired to awaken and heal in your own way.

The Beginning of My Journey
My path to energy work didn’t arrive all at once. It unfolded quietly, through moments of chaos, confusion, and uncertainty. The chaos turned into fuel, the confusion turned into knowledge, and the uncertainty, well that still creeps up. Slowly came the stillness and deep listening. Before I knew it, horses were my first teachers — they showed me what it means to feel without words.
When I stood beside them, I began to understand how much they could sense — my emotions, my energy, even the thoughts I tried to hide. They didn’t judge; they simply reflected what was true.
Over time, I followed the call toward deeper understanding not just for the animals, but for myself. My first reiki session completely turned my life up side down, in the best way possible. It just felt, right. I finally started to understand where my healing needed to begin.
Studying Reiki, animal communication, and equine bodywork have all continued humble me. Each practice became a new way of seeing, a new layer of healing for both animals and myself.

The Heart of My Work
Through Reiki, intuitive communication, and bodywork, I help animals and their people find connection, clarity, and relief — not only in the body, but within the emotional and energetic layers that often go unseen.
Healing, to me, isn’t about fixing what’s broken.
It’s about remembering who we are underneath the noise. It’s about softening the parts of ourselves that have been protecting for too long, and allowing the energy of peace and understanding to flow freely again.
Each session, whether with a horse, dog, cat, or human, reminds me that we’re all searching for the same thing — to be felt, understood, and loved.

What You’ll Find Here
This blog is an extension of that work — a place to share what I’ve learned and continue to learn every day.
You can expect stories from the barn, lessons from my teachers (both human and equine), reflections on energy and intuition, and gentle reminders to return home to yourself.
Some posts will be educational, others will simply be honest — moments of healing, growth, and the beautiful messiness of being human.

A Closing Intention
Whether you’ve found your way here through your horse, your healing journey, or simple curiosity, I’m so grateful you’re here.
May this space bring you a sense of calm, inspiration, and connection.
And may it remind you that healing is never a straight path — it’s a delicate balance, one we learn to walk with grace, even through the muck!
With love and light,
