Hi, I’m Rory Cassandra

As a somatic experiencing practitioner + life coach, my work is rooted in the wisdom of the body. I support women in coming home to themselves slowly, gently, and with deep reverence for all that they carry.

Through a blend of coaching and somatic experiencing, we begin to unwind the patterns that keep us stuck, disconnected, or looping in old stories. We work with what’s alive in the moment what our body is saying beneath the words so we can build a relationship with ourselves that feels grounded, honest, and whole.

This isn’t about fixing or forcing it’s about listening. It’s about learning how to trust our internal cues, build capacity in our nervous system, and respond to life from a place of choice rather than survival.

The ripple effects of this work are profound. While we may not be directly addressing “health,” we may find that our energy shifts, our digestion softens, our sleep deepens, our anxiety eases because when the body feels safe, everything begins to change.

Shortly after retiring from being a Division 1 athlete, my world started to unravel in ways I couldn’t ignore. On the outside, I looked like I had it all together. But inside, I was hurting. Disconnected from my body. Numbing through food, control, perfection. What began as an eating disorder eventually surfaced into years of anxiety, chronic gut issues, deep fatigue, and a grief I didn’t yet have language for.

I lost my period for three years. I lost my spark. I lost the ability to hear my own truth.

And yet it wasn’t just about the food. The real healing began when I stopped trying to fix the surface symptoms and started tending to the root: my emotional and mental landscape. The trauma stored in my body. The places I’d abandoned myself. The ancestral wounds, the shame, the hunger for love I kept trying to earn.

I slowly began the process of coming home. Back into my body. Back into trust. It wasn’t linear it never is. But with support from mentors, coaches, and somatic work that cracked me open in the best way, I reclaimed my voice, my worth, and my capacity to feel again.

And now, this is what I get to walk women through. Not just symptom relief but true embodiment. Where we stop outsourcing our power and start building safety from the inside out. Every day I wake up to this work, I’m in awe. It’s the greatest honor of my life.

WOW, pinch me everyday I wake up and get to do what I do.

With a background in kinesiology, dietetics, psychology, and trauma-TRAINED care, I bring a deep, multidisciplinary understanding to the way I support my clients. But more than that, I hold a space that’s sacred where you can arrive exactly as you are and meet what’s alive in your body with compassion.

As a coach, I’m not here to fix you. I’m here to walk beside you as a mirror, a guide, a mentor while you remember that the answers have always been within. Sometimes, we just need someone to help clear the fog so we can finally see ourselves clearly again.

The body holds the wisdom. Always.

There’s a time to explore the story, to speak the pain, to name the trauma. And there’s also a time to drop below the words to feel it, move it, and let it alchemize. That’s where true healing happens.

Let us ignite our body sister.
Feel our power. Take back our voice.
Claim our sexuality. Connect with our womb.

Express. Authentically. Fluidly.
