Fear to Freedom: A Journey to Authentic You (Lead yourself first—rebuild confidence, boundaries, and courage to create a life you love)
Fear to Freedom: A Journey to Authentic You
Lead yourself first—rebuild confidence, boundaries, and courage to create a life you love (and don't want to escape).
Trauma-informed: I recognize how common trauma is and actively tailor our work—no one-size-fits-all.
“Authenticity — a gut connection to self — is a survival necessity.”
— Dr. Gabor Maté
If you’ve been strong for everyone else and feel invisible in your own story—you’re not alone.
When we live fragmented—one self for work, another for family, another hidden in shame—our energy leaks and our health pays the price. As Dr. Maté teaches, disconnection from self is the root of suffering. Integration is the path to freedom.
This work isn’t a quick fix or magic pill. It’s for the woman who knows something deeper is calling—who longs for a safe space to be real, gain perspective, and gather tools to create a new path. I’m here to champion and equip you as you say “yes” to that journey.
It's in the dark of the chrysalis that you are being uniquely shaped so you can powerfully fly with purpose and impact.
Be still.
-Kim Peterson
In a divided culture and uncertain times,
many mid-life women—and women in transition—are
quietly carrying the weight
of self-silencing, people-pleasing,
harmful dynamics, and chronic stress—
while trying to lead at home and at work.
If you’re craving calm, clear boundaries,
and a return to your authentic self, you are in the right place.
