Hi, I'm Liv
Somatic coach and breathwork guide for women navigating separation and divorce.
I know what it feels like when your life suddenly becomes unrecognizable.
After a 24-year partnership with the father of my daughters, I came home one evening after a long day of travel to a house that suddenly felt unfamiliar and two daughters trying to make sense of changes I hadn't expected to happen so quickly.
I remember thinking very clearly:Â Now what?
Those initial days weren't about decision-making or healing-they were about shock. My nervous system was overwhelmed. My body was on high alert. My mind couldn't organize what was happening fast enough to help.
I had spent almost 17 years studying spirituality, energetics, and various healing modalities, as well as having become an advanced-breathwork facilitator and somatic coach, but in that moment, what I needed was something simple. Something that explained what was happening in my body and offered a gentle way back to steadiness-without requiring more from me than I had to give.
That's why I created Liv Awakened.
I guide women in midlife through the somatic experience of separation and divorce--not just by talking through the pain, but by gently moving it through the body.
Because separation doesn't only live in your thoughts. It lives in your nervous system.
The tightness in your chest. The racing thoughts at night. The sudden waves of emotion. The constant sense of alertness.
These aren't signs that something is wrong with you. They are physiological responses to sudden change.
When the body begins to settle, the mind follows.
Whether you're in the earliest days of shock or moving through anger, grief, or release, I offer body-based support that meets you exactly where you are-without overwhelming you with what comes next.
Your next chapter isn't about who you were.
It's about who you're here to become.

I felt held, seen and most of all, safe to release and recalibrate. Olivia is powerful yet gentle, strong and so full of light.
