About Me
I remember the moment I finally had to be honest with myself.
I had spent years in a relationship that slowly dismantled who I was — piece by piece, so gradually I almost didn't notice. By the time I found my way out, I barely recognized the woman looking back at me in the mirror. I had lost my voice, my confidence, my sense of self. And the hardest part? I didn't even know how to begin finding my way back.
No one tells you that leaving is only the beginning. That the real work is rebuilding — not just your life, but your relationship with yourself. Learning to trust your own voice again. Releasing the shame, the self-blame, the conditioning that told you that you were the problem. Remembering who you were before someone else's chaos became your identity.
That journey — painful, sacred, and completely transformative — is what brought me here.
I'm Alexis Galarza — certified Professional Life Coach, Somatic Healing Coach, and Trauma-Informed Life Coach, and the founder of Awakening Orenda Life Coaching. I am also the author of Awakening Your Orenda; Transform, Heal and Reclaim Your Life, and the creator of the THELMA Method — a six-step healing framework designed to take you from the wreckage of a toxic relationship all the way back home to yourself.
My work exists for the woman who is done surviving and ready to come back to herself.
