About
Lindsey Steensma
I didn’t set out to do this work.
I began my career in the world of numbers—earning my MBA and working as an accountant.
From the outside, everything made sense.
Internally, it didn’t.
I was living a life that looked right—
but didn’t feel like mine.
That realization changed everything.
I stepped away and began paying attention to what I had spent years overriding—my body, my emotions, my internal signals.
Not to fix them.
But to understand them.
Over time, that became a different way of living.
One that felt:
More honest.
More grounded.
More my own.
What came from that shift wasn’t a method.
It was a different way of relating—
to myself,
and to life.
This is something I’ve continued to live into—
through practice,
integration,
and experience.
My background includes formal training in health coaching
and a Master’s degree in business.
Those experiences shaped how I think.
This work is something I’ve lived.
I share this because many of the women I work with
are living lives that look right—
but don’t fully feel like their own.
They are capable.
Relied on.
Successful by most standards.
And still disconnected from themselves in the process.
This work isn’t about becoming someone new.
It’s about learning how to remain with yourself
inside the life you already have.
This work is also personal.
My mom was someone people relied on.
She was a hospice nurse for most of her career.
She cared for people at the end of their lives.
She showed up—for patients, for family, for anyone who needed her.
She was the person people went to.
Kind, generous, deeply giving.
And she gave to almost everyone.
But she wasn’t receiving the same level of support.
She carried a lot.
She overgave.
She overworked.
She stayed disconnected from her own needs.
She passed away at 52.
I don’t believe women are meant to live that way.
I believe when women are connected to their bodies—
when they listen, set boundaries, receive support, and stop overriding themselves—they live differently.
More honestly.
More sustainably.
And for longer.
This work exists for women who give a lot.
So they can remain with themselves
inside the lives they’re holding.
