Welcome, I’m glad you’re here.

I’m Ari. I seem to try on many hats—and while I love them all, I haven’t quite found the perfect fit… until I realized that the hat is not what I’m looking for. It’s the girl wearing it.

I change my mind often—not because I’m bored, but because I’m on a quest. Purpose is a word that’s been tossed around me for years, and one word I’ve tried to grab onto with all my might.

Each new hat, new idea, carries me on the ever-changing path of discovery. It’s comical and cringe at times, and some layers come with dirt, but I seem to find new parts of myself around each corner.

Those edges keep me on my toes, and brought me here (again): a place where I am free. A place to share, or not to share. To try on, and to take off. To change my mind, and to keep discovering the newness of Ariana.

If there’s anything that has stuck with me through each chapter, dating back to about 2018, it’s been my passion for teaching, and being a vessel for transformation. One of my favorite way to do this is by teaching somatic movement aka Pilates. The hat of “Pilates instructor” is one where my shares feel the most raw, the most me.

Another passion project, or hat is my work as a holistic health coach and the creation of Intuitive Nutrition: a more intimate space to navigate parts of your life that you feel stuck in. In these spaces, I feel confident as a channel, reflecting the parts of you that are intimidated to be seen.

This practice first started as a food-forward program, with meal plans and fasting support. After years of school and a Master’s degree in Holistic Nutrition later, I realized food is often in the way of deeper issues, but when used wisely, can aid great transformations (mentally and physically).

So now what?

Numerous deactivations of social media, life-changing events, heartbreak, and a lot more… feels like fuel.

The wisdom I carry is cultivated through the experiences—from a grounded place. Not from approval, acceptance, or pressure.

Pulling myself away from the pressure to go in, always brings me to the same conclusions:

To be me.

To be Ari.

Not the name in front of her, not the hat she’s wearing.

To share from my heart, when I choose to, in whatever way that feels best in the moment—from pilates to writings.

To share without needing anything in return.

No bs, just love.

Love letters.
