The Joy of Adulting

Becoming a Financially embodied adult through somatic experiencing

with Caitlin Seandel

Certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner

“Life is Joyous when I am me, because being me is being free”

What is Somatic Experiencing?

Somatic: relating to the body, especially as distinct from the mind.

Experiencing: to encounter, undergo, feel (sensation)

Somatic Experiencing (SE) is the experience of one’s own body distinct from their mind. In SE we focus on the sensations not the story.

Somatic Experiencing guides you back into your body through working with your nervous system.

Through working with your own nervous system you allow it to be able to complete the traumas/stress/overwhelm/freeze/flight/fight that is repeating in your life allowing your nervous system to come back into regulation.

When we work directly with our nervous embodiment is the outcome.

An embodied adult is an adult that is able to be present, experience joy, see new options, react appropriately and move in the direction of the life that you want.

Financial Embodiment

The current world society has made money a mandatory experience for us all, regardless of our opinion on the matter, so why not be in a good relationship with such a key experience?

Money is something for adults which is why financial embodiment is a key component in the joy of adulthood.

Financial Embodiment focuses on your somatic relationship to money which is already happening; from the sensations of stress, constriction, disassociation to the feelings of joy, freedom and openness- money is already taking place in the body.

Caitlin works with her clients to explore their relationship to money from their nervous systems to transform that relationship into embodiment that feels expansive, calm, joyous and optimistic in the body.

How We Explore Your Relationship with Money

  • SENSATIONS

    We will work with your nervous system to let the body speak. We focuses on sensations not stories.

  • RESOURCED

    We move slow and find resources that allow you to begin to complete trauma responses that are keeping your relationship to money on a loop.

  • The Joy of Adulting

    Your pathway forward that provides clarity, optimism and confidence on what your aligned relationship with money means, looks like and most importantly feels like.

  • “You’re a natural and I’m not saying it lightly. The last two sessions have been so powerful for me.”

    —Friend from Practitioner Training

  • “I can’t thank you enough Caitlin for the work we’ve done so far. I’m kinda shocked at how profound the results are. I am definitely going to tell everyone about this work.”

    -Client in Kenya

  • “Bruh! This will need a whole write up. So i have found out that in the template I received, my inlet has always been too narrow because I did not receive adequate emotional nourishment from my mother, and my outlet has been too wide because her brother stole my innocence. So I work extra hard for very little money and immediately I have it, it leaks out. The two goddess that have called me are here to repair my template. Yemaya the ocean is for nourishing and expanding my inlet, while Oshun of the sweet rivers is here to restore my innocence and balance my outlet so that I can enjoy my own sweetness before I share it with the world.”

    -Client in Nairobi

  • "Working with Caitlin through Somatic Experiencing has been incredibly valuable. She created a safe and supportive space that helped me become more aware of how my nervous system responds to stress. Since our sessions, I've noticed that I'm much less reactive in challenging situations and no longer feel stuck in constant fight-or-flight state. I feel calmer, more grounded, and better able to respond rather than react. Caitlin's gentle and skilled approach has made a real difference in my daily life, and I'm very grateful for her support.
