I built it in silence for 7 years

TL;DR:
If you’ve been sitting on something big but not moving…
Same.
This is what happens when you finally do.

In 2020, I filed paperwork for a nonprofit.
By spring 2021, it was approved.

And I was shocked.

Not because I didn’t believe in the mission, but because I realized I had no idea how to hold it.

But the truth is, I’ve been carrying this vision for nearly seven years.
Not always clearly. Not always confidently.
But it’s been there, shaping me, forcing me to grow into someone who could finally build it right.

So I did what a lot of us do when something big starts to come into view:
I scrambled.
I rushed.
I tried to make it real before I was ready to be in it.

I gave it a name—ShivaLuna—and started promoting it quietly to my community.
No real plan. No structure. Just adrenaline and good intentions.

And like many things we push too soon, it fizzled fast.

You ever done that?
Had a moment that felt like it could be it—your breakthrough, your “next chapter,” but it collapsed under the weight of your own uncertainty?

That’s what happened.

What followed was the deepest internal journey of my life.
I walked away from a business that was working.
I went inward. Not to disappear, but to finally get honest.

Because when your outer life is “fine” but your inner life feels like it’s starving, something has to change.

I didn’t rebrand.
I unraveled.

And when I came out the other side, I didn’t launch something new—
I became someone new.

Someone vision-led. Someone grounded.
Someone finally capable of holding the work I’d only been dreaming of.

Then, last year, not long after we moved to Puerto Rico, the name Remeria came to me.

I didn’t force it. It wasn’t brainstormed. It just came through, and it stuck.

At first, I didn’t know what it meant.
But over time, it made sense:

Remeria is a landing space. A threshold. A return.
Not a mental ward. Not a life coaching container.
Not another system built to "fix" people.

It’s a digital—and soon-to-be physical—place for the ones who are quietly falling apart in high-functioning lives.
The ones who are done with bandaids.
Who need a space to feel like a human again, without being judged, shamed, or pushed.

The veterans.
The ones holding it all together.
The people everyone depends on, who never really get to fall apart.

The ones who’ve done the work, stayed strong, kept going—
and still feel like something isn’t clicking.

And no—this isn’t me suddenly “coming back.”

I’ve been building behind the scenes for the past two years.
Creating the internal funding structure for the nonprofit.
Setting up the membership site for Authentic Evolution.
Testing what actually works, not just what sounds good online.

I’m not here to impress anyone.
It’s about building something that holds up over time.

And now, Remeria is officially public.

Last week, I sent the first email.
Stripe kept pinging. Donations started rolling in.
I cried twice. Once, while frying French fries. (No tears hit the grease.🥲)

Because something I’ve been carrying since 2018 is finally in motion.

And as I write this…
It’s 12:34 PM. Another new member just joined AE at $44. 🙏🏼😭

The vision is moving.
And still, I feel it in my body: resistance.

That subtle way I try to slow things down, pause, hesitate,
not because I don’t want it, but because it’s getting real.

I’ve learned that my nervous system doesn’t fear failure.
It fears expansion.

Maybe you know that feeling.
That quiet inner stall when things start to work.
When everything you said you wanted starts showing up, and your first instinct is to pump the brakes.

That’s not self-sabotage.
That’s a body trying to stay safe.

And this-this right here is why Remeria exists.

To support the exact moment where you’re not in crisis anymore…
But you’re not fully whole either.
And you just need somewhere to land while you figure it out.

That’s what I’ve needed.
That’s what I’m building.
And maybe, that’s what you’ve been looking for too.

We’re just getting started.

If something in this hit home and you want to support or follow along, you can do that here: https://remeria.org/

A lot of people say they want to be part of something bigger.
But the ego usually thinks that means being the bigger thing.

What if this time, you get to support what’s good, grounded, and needed, without needing it to be about you?

That’s what Remeria is.
And if you’ve read this far, thank you.
Truly.
