Everything is an expression of God. There is no one and no thing that is not.
Beauty is everywhere, but our perception may not be attuned to behold it.
There are no mistakes, just opportunities to evolve.
Childhood colors the way we relate to ourselves & others in a profound way.
In order to create well-being we must look at our whole being not just symthoms.
Stuck emotions disrupt your energy body, affect your perception, and can cause disease.
We’re not out of our minds… we’re out of our bodies.
Our moon cycle is wise and gets to be honored.
Most people have their “internal parts” running their lives… not their Adult Self.
Relationships are our greatest teachers and growth catalysts.
I’m Ana Paula—an architect-turned-Embodied Leadership Coach, Attachment Repair Specialist, and Domina of Sacred Surrender.
Over a decade ago, I began my career designing architectural landmarks in Los Angeles alongside Frank Gehry. But even then, I sensed that the most powerful structures are not the ones we build with concrete—but the ones we build within. The human body. The nervous system. The patterns that silently shape our lives.
I left Gehry’s studio with his full support to pursue a deeper calling: the art of inner architecture. Since then, I’ve guided thousands of women through life’s initiations—blending somatic healing, attachment repair, breathwork, feminine archetypal work, and ritual into embodied transformation.
Healing is only the beginning. The real work is reclamation.
Returning to your body, your truth, your power. Awakening sensuality, inner authority, and the wild wisdom that lives beneath performance and protection.
The liberation that becomes possible when you surrender completely—to sensation, to trust, to the unknown—is where transformation begins.
My practice includes custom immersive retreats, online programs like Reclaim Your Femme and Rewired, and the Radiant Woman Circle—a sacred space for wombwork, breathwork, Human Design, moon ceremonies, and member-requested monthly themes.
For those called to explore more provocative edges…
I also work in the realm of conscious dominance and artistic power exchange, where surrender becomes a sacred act of devotion and the body becomes a canvas. In high-trust, attuned containers designed for deep descent—such as immersive Domination experiences and private rituals— I incorporate impact, restraint, mythopoetic archetypal astrology, and Human Design to guide clients into somatic thresholds where embodied truth becomes accessible.
This is the threshold of expansion— the place where you meet what you’ve hidden, denied, or feared to claim. The parts of you that are raw, sacred, and wildly alive.
What becomes possible when you cross into that space—and stay—is everything.
Whether through somatics or submission, art or ritual, I’m here to walk with you to the edge where true surrender becomes liberation—in the body, the psyche, and the soul.
To the place where you can finally meet your whole self, and embody your full-spectrum expression.
Let’s begin.
