MY DEBUT MEMIOR IS HERE!
It’s here. Today is publication day—and, because the universe enjoys irony, I’ll be spending it on jury duty. As Radical Return goes out into the world to be judged, I’ve been summoned to do some judging of my own.
Radical Return: Reclaiming My Body through Coffee, Drugs, Dance, and Psychoanalysis is officially available for you to read. And I am nervous—hands shaking, heart in my throat nervous.
I’ve spent years putting these stories into words: first for myself, then for the couch, and finally for the page. But handing this particular book to you feels different.
It holds coffee at four in the morning, dance floors that cracked something open, drugs that both numbed and revealed, and a psychoanalyst’s couch where I finally began returning to my body, my history, and a life of harmony.
If these pages could slide free and steep into a cup of coffee, we would be sitting across from each other, drinking it slowly and talking. That is what I wanted this book to feel like— a conversation.
I wrote Radical Return because my body would no longer carry these stories in silence. I wanted to give words to what my body knew. My hope is that one person’s return might call others home—and that speaking what has been hidden can move us collectively towards change and freedom.
This is the real me: the good girl who learned to stay quiet and the woman who danced her way back out. I hope you like her.

My swim classes at Equinox Sports Club are about more than fitness. They’re about community, connection, and the opportunity to glide.

Swimming holds a special place in Radical Return. In a memoir about reclaiming body, voice, and self, the water became a place where I could feel at home in my body again.

Integration doesn’t end when the journey does.

In this clip, I’m speaking with my friend and colleague Jerry Growney @jerrygrowney about what integration really looks like.

Psychedelic integration is the process of making sense of an experience and then applying its lessons to everyday life. And it isn’t a weekend project. It can unfold over weeks, months, and sometimes years. Insights can keep surfacing long after the journey ends, asking to be understood and lived.

Integration can also happen through the body. Dance, yoga, breathwork, and other embodied practices can help us process what words can’t reach.

In my memoir, Radical Return, I write about how dance became my vehicle for integrating painful experiences from my past. Movement gave those memories somewhere to go, and over time, it helped me come home to myself. 💃🏽

There’s no deadline on healing. Be patient with your process.

How do you integrate your experiences?

What’s a psychedelic integration circle? 🌀 It’s a supportive group space where people come together to process and make sense of their psychedelic experiences, as well as other non-ordinary states of consciousness like breathwork or meditation. It’s a place for the beautiful, the confusing, and the hard parts, so the insights can actually land in everyday life.

In this conversation, Josh Jupiter @brooklynbalanceintegration (founder of Brooklyn Balance) shares why that kind of support matters, including his own experience in an underground medicine group where participants were never told what they were taking, questions were dismissed as “being in your head,” and secrecy had tragic consequences.

His takeaway: real consent means knowing exactly what you’re ingesting, being free to ask questions, having a real safety plan, and being able to walk away without losing your community.

Healthy containers build your freedom, not your dependency. 💛

Preparing for an experience, or processing one that didn’t feel right? Follow @brooklynbalanceintegration to learn about upcoming integration circles and one-on-one sessions.

Book launch #1: ✅ Storm: also ✅ ⛈️

I left my wallet, my computer, and all my filming equipment back in the city. So I did what the book teaches: I surrendered.

Then the weather had opinions. Scott @puttputtvanwinkle had the putt-putt course all prepped, only to get rained out ⛳️💧 (rain check, Scott!). Gary @gary_good2go saved the day by moving the whole party into his home. And Ada Calhoun @adacalhoun was the most gracious host, holding the space beautifully through all of it. 💛

There was no better place to launch Radical Return. Bovina holds so many of my memories and relationships: the brook, the mountains, the clouds, the trees, the animals and of course the people. I didn’t just write parts of this book here. I lived it here.

In this clip, I talk about the psychedelic integration dances that accompany the book, all rehearsed and filmed right here in Delaware County. 💃🏽 Because sometimes the body says what words can’t.

📖 Radical Return is out now.

Meet Torello Cabrol @t_cabrol who coaches Swim: Pro at Equinox. 🏊‍♀️

His lanes hold former collegiate swimmers and people like me who love the water but never swam on a team. Torello also works with people who’ve had difficult experiences in the water, or who never learned to swim at all, sharing tricks of the trade that help them feel safe and at home.

In Radical Return, I write about reclaiming my body through movement. Safety comes first, then freedom. Torello understands that in the water.

Thank you, Torello, for making the pool a place where everyone belongs.
