Healer, maker, black belt, overthinker

Curious about everything. Qualified for some of it.

I do energy work, teach people to kick, glue paper to other paper, and built a search engine for stickers. It all connects. I can explain, but it takes a minute.

What I do

Six things I do instead of picking one.

01 / Energy work

Yes, I have a science degree. Yes, I do energy work.

Molecular biology, actually. I am not fixing you. I am shifting what your body expects and letting time catch up. Think New York and Tokyo on the same map at the same moment. I know how it sounds. I say it anyway.

02 / Movement

I get kicked for fun.

First-degree black belt in Tang Soo Do. Nobody claps when you drill the same form for the four hundredth time. I go back anyway, usually sore, and it runs underneath everything else I make.

Where I train: Dragon's Den

03 / Art journaling

Pages where I argue with myself.

Cut paper, glue, and a little chaos. It is how I digest a week when my head gets loud. Less art, more thinking I can hold in my hands. Some pages are pretty. Some are a crime scene.

Look inside the pages
White shelves packed edge to edge with sticker books, their spines tagged with small colored clips
04 / Systems

I own an unreasonable number of stickers.

So many that I built a search engine to find them. The planner was never about being productive. It is the only reason I know what day it is.

See the planning work

05 / Reading

A room full of books and zero shame.

Fantasy, self-compassion, and the occasional anger-read I cannot put down. Most of what I believe started as an argument with a margin.

What I am reading, on Goodreads

06 / Parties

Yes, the napkins match.

I have been told my parties are a lot. They are. This is my favorite kind of making, and I do it because I love it. Then I take a lot of pictures.

The freedom is in not having all the answers.
Which is lucky, because I do not
The honest part
I'm terrified most of the time, but that's my signal to act, not stay comfortable.
  • Curious
  • Self-made
  • Unpolished on purpose
  • Relentless

Things I have built

I guide by doing. Here is some of the doing.

I would rather hand you something that works than tell you I am good at things. These are real. Go click on them.

The company / With Irving

Digital Resonance

What it is
The company I run with my husband, Irving. It is where my ideas go to become actual software, mostly because I got tired of waiting for someone else to build them.
What it does
Websites, CRMs, and automations for small businesses that would rather do their actual job. The Sticker Search, the strength app, and the recipe site came out of it too.

Digital Resonance / Live now

The Sticker Search

What it is
A searchable catalog of Happy Planner sticker books.
What it does
Tells you which book a sticker came from in seconds, instead of an hour of flipping pages.

Coaching

Biofield Architects

What it is
Dial down, then dial up. Coaching that starts with the nervous system.
What it does
Calms a body that has been living in alarm, then builds toward intuition and inner authority. Art journaling is how we get there.

Hands-on / Scottsdale

Physically Meta

What it is
My massage practice. Nine years of finding the spot you swore was fine.
What it does
Myofascial, visceral, craniosacral, lymphatic, and prenatal work, done by me and only me.

Digital Resonance / In the works

A strength app for martial artists

What it is
Strength training built around what a fighter needs, not what a bodybuilder needs.
What it does
Makes me better at kicking people. I am its first and most demanding user.
Being tested on me.
Digital Resonance / In the works

The recipe site

What it is
Every recipe I love and make on repeat, in one place I can pull up fast.
What it does
Gets me to the ingredients without scrolling past a stranger's life story.
Built for me. You can borrow it.

Also in the pile: an AI agent stack I built to run the back office, because I was not going to do the paperwork myself.

The fuller picture

Evidence. Mostly of paper.

Pages, rooms, and the desk where most of this happens. Click a stack to flip through it.

A working theory
We are all energy, just dense enough to forget that is what we are.

This is either physics or a great excuse. I am still running the experiment.

A little about me

Still figuring it out. Loudly.

I am Rachel. I live in Phoenix, where two days of rain can undo my whole sense of being a productive person.

I do energy work. I also have a molecular biology degree. I have stopped asking those two facts to apologize to each other.

I am a mom, a martial artist, a planner person, and a reader who never grew out of it. I have been a massage therapist for nine years, which means I know exactly where your shoulders are lying to you.

I ask too many questions and I am fine not having the answers yet. I am also highly sensitive, so I will probably cry about it first. Then I get to work.

More thoughts to be had. Come find me.

Say hello

Let's stay in touch.

Want to work together, ask about energy work, or tell me what you are reading? Do it. I read every message myself. Yes, really.
