About Émilie
You’re so good at holding it all together.
But lately... you’re wondering what it’s costing you.
You’re the go-to person for everyone else — the one who always shows up, who keeps things running, who rarely lets anything drop.
But quietly, you’re tired.
Not just tired… over it.
You’re questioning if this pace is sustainable.
You’re craving space to hear your own voice again.
You want to slow down — but you don’t know how to do that without feeling guilty, behind, or like you’re letting people down.
I see you. And I want you to know: it doesn’t have to be this way.
I’m Émilie — therapist, mentor, and slow living guide
And I help high-achieving, self-aware women come home to themselves.
For years, I did everything “right.”
I got the degrees, checked the boxes, worked hard, showed up for everyone.
But beneath the surface, I felt stretched thin. I was performing calm on the outside, but inside? I was overwhelmed, disconnected, and constantly questioning if I was doing enough.
It wasn’t until I started exploring slow living — not as a trendy aesthetic, but as a radical return to what actually matters — that things began to shift.
Now, I support women like you in doing the same.
I believe...
☕ You shouldn’t have to choose between being present for your family and taking care of yourself
☕ Boundaries are not selfish — they’re necessary
☕ Rest is a right, not a reward for productivity
☕ You can slow down and stay ambitious — without burning yourself out
The work I do blends…
my background as a therapist
my real-life experience navigating burnout and hustle culture
and my passion for intentional, values-led living
…into a mentorship experience that’s not about fixing you —
it’s about freeing you.
When we work together, you’ll learn how to:
✅ Set boundaries without guilt
✅ Prioritize yourself without losing your ambition
✅ Reconnect with your values, voice, and vision
✅ Live more slowly — and more fully
You don’t need to hustle your way into peace. You need support, permission, and a new way of being. That’s what I’m here for.
"You have a rare gift for helping people uncover the layers of who they truly are. It felt like you saw the real me, even when I couldn’t see it myself."

My Story
For most of my life, I identified as an overachiever—a walking burnout waiting to happen. I truly believed I could do it all if I could just get over the next hurdle. But every time I reached what I thought was “success,” the goalpost moved.
First, I thought I’d feel accomplished once I got a job after my bachelor’s. Then I told myself it would happen once I finished my master’s, or once I landed my first job as a therapist. But no matter how much I achieved, it was never enough.
Eventually, in 2021, I burnt out completely and had to take six months off work. That time forced me to slow down—and gave me space to reflect on what I actually wanted for my life.
It was during this season that I began learning about essentialism, slow living, and authentic living. These ideas weren’t just interesting—they were healing. They helped me shift away from the constant need for external validation and start living in alignment with my values.
Becoming a mother only deepened this shift. I realized that the way I was living wasn’t sustainable—not for me, and not for the kind of presence I wanted to offer in my personal and professional life.
Since then, I’ve been committed to building a life rooted in what truly matters. Following my values, shifting my mindset, and prioritizing rest and care has changed everything. And now, I help others do the same.
Back when I was so exhausted, I’d crash on the couch by 6 PM every night — but never actually felt rested.
