If a building becomes architecture, then it is art

Hey 👋 I'm J.D., a life coach turned emotional intelligence health advocate.


I’m someone who’s constantly juggling growth, healing, parenting (if you know, you know), and just trying to make it to the end of the day without losing my sense of humor—or my keys. I talk a lot about emotional intelligence, boundaries, burnout, and all the beautiful chaos that comes with trying to raise emotionally aware kids while also trying to re-parent myself in the process.


I’m not here to pretend I’ve got it all together. I’m here to create space for the conversations we don’t always get to have out loud. The moments we second guess ourselves. The wins that feel too small to celebrate publicly, but secretly mean everything. The truth that sometimes we’re doing deep inner work… while reheating coffee for the third time and trying to ignore the mountain of laundry giving us side-eye.


If you're into Montessori, emotional intelligence, storytelling, or just want to connect with someone who believes that soft is strong and messy is honest—you’re in the right place.


Let’s build something real here.
