Join the Play Revolution with Personal Play Coaching
Most of the problems of the modern world could be resolved if adults learned to access the Playful Mind.
Transform your Life from Play Deprived to
Abundant Joy
From Deprived to Abundant is a personal coaching program to help you rediscover your play and cultivate a mindful play practice so that you can start feeling joy and fulfillment in your everyday life right now, not later.
Realizing you’re play-deprived often hits you like a record scratch.
You look at your life and your soul speaks out:
“Is this it? Am I meant to be this stressed, this bored, this unhappy?”
Other times, your play deprivation is a slow creep.
A longing that aches deep in your soul for more.
More laughter. More creativity. More expression. More joy. But how?
6 Signs You’re Play Deprived
Every human, every mammal has a biological drive to play. And that includes you! While society wants you to think that play is for children, you desperately need play as an adult. When you’re disconnected from your play, you become play-deprived. Here are some signs of
play deprivation:
-
You react to life stressors (even small ones like your kids leaving the milk out) with anger, rage, or withdrawal.
-
You feel stuck and are unsure how to fix it.
-
You become a deer in headlights when someone asks the question "What do you do for fun?"
-
You're resistant to change, feeling fearful or scared of new.
-
You think your life is boring or dull.
-
You lack motivation or drive towards a goal.
About Personal Play Coaching
Transform your life from play
Deprived to Abundant
A personal coaching program so you can rediscover the play that ignites your soul, fulfills your deepest needs, and cultivates abundant joy in your life.
Most people think abundance is only money, but the most wealthy people can still feel deprived and discontent at every money milestone. This is because Play is a core need for humans. Every human. Without prioritizing mindful play, true joy, contentment, and abundance will always feel just out of reach.
Play is a revolutionary act. When more people rediscover play, we can unplug from the oppressive systems that have us always seeking for MORE & never feeling full or content. Play is the antidote.
Reintroducing play starts small but grows as you build your play mindfulness practice. Once we reconnect with your play, you'll want more. That’s how we know we’ve hit something special.
We can feel it in the core of our being.

What is Play as a Mindfulness Practice?
We’re taught that play is an action taken by children, but that’s completely wrong.
Play is an engaged mental state. It’s an embodied experience where enjoyment and engagement meet.
It’s personal. It’s found and expressed differently in everyone.
It’s the feeling of losing track of time.
An excitement or giddiness you cannot contain.
Of losing a sense of self in an experience.
A sparkle in your eye and a zest for life.
You don’t see play, you feel it.
Studies show that engaging in play is one of the most powerful ways to reduce stress, improve wellness, and buffer against anxiety and depression. A 2017 study found that 72% reported a significant decrease in stress after engaging in playful activities. By engaging in play, study participants reported a 31% reduction in feelings of loneliness and an overall increase in life satisfaction.
But, for many, reconnecting to play is hard. The prescription “go have fun” is overwhelming. Where do you begin?
By treating play with the seriousness and commitment of other wellness modalities, you commit to centering your joy, expression, and creativity.
At The Playful Revolution, we teach you the tangible steps needed to build your playful practice, one that integrates into your life and ignites your soul.
You’ll be present in a meaningful and vibrant life that doesn’t require waiting for the “right” moment, the “dream” job, to "fix" your partner, or till your kids are older. You’ll build a life you love, a joy you cannot contain, exactly where you are.
Helping You Rediscover Meaning & Joy in Your Life
Stories from Past Players
(AKA Clients)
-
She was triggered by her kids play...
And she HATED it. Imaginative play was overwhelming! She knew her kid wasn’t doing anything wrong. She craved an ability to be more patient, present, and engaged. The reality was, she didn’t remember how to play! What she needed was to rediscover HER play so she could join her kids play! With TJ, she explored her love of creative play and what it means to paint a new picture of parenting, bedtime, and playtime. She rewrote society’s story of what it means to be a “good” parent—embracing her play to center her needs while also cultivating a stronger relationship with her children.
-
She was accomplished but still felt lost...
She grew up playing competitive sports and then working the corporate ladder. When she started her own company and wasn’t on someone else’s “clock,” she didn’t actually know what freedom meant. She was the boss, but she didn’t feel like the boss! She kept pushing herself and chasing deadlines, but none of it felt FUN. Using her love of kinetic sports, TJ helped her engage in everyday movement play that liberated her mind and body so she could actually FEEL free. Now she’s reembodied the leadership skills she learned from sports while also liberating spontaneous and unstructured play that gives her mind and body freedom and rejuvenation
-
They grew up playing small, never taking up space...
They played quietly and out of people’s way. Following the rules and doing a “good job.” They received feedback at work that their skills were great, but they needed to develop more confidence. But, no one told them how? Using a love of storytelling play, TJ helped them find their voice through books, writing, and everyday role playing. Now, they know what it means to become a person who proudly takes up space, owns their desires, and feels confident in their life.

Your Mindfulness Guide & Play Buddy
For over a decade, in my role as a trauma therapist, I’ve walked with people trapped in the shadows of their own lives, stuck in a loop they couldn’t escape. But that’s where I discovered something powerful—play. It wasn’t just a game, it was a lifeline. It cracked open a new world, one where I’ve helped hundreds break free and reconnect with who they truly are, guiding them toward lives filled with joy and purpose. Play isn’t just fun—it rewires the mind, reshapes the body, and reignites the soul.
Before play? I was burnt out, drowning in the “mindfulness” culture. Stillness, breathwork, sure, it had its place—but no one was talking about what I was craving: letting go. Where was the silliness? Where was the space to just laugh, be ridiculous, and free?
I didn’t need more coping skills—I needed living skills. I wanted to stretch my limits—not for suffering, but for joy, for laughter, for all the wild, stupid, beautiful things that make life worth living. Everywhere I turned, it was all about performance, control, and perfection. But I wanted community, I wanted liberation. I wanted a revolution of joy.
Reclaiming play flipped my world upside down—and for the better. Now, it’s my mission to help you do the same. This isn’t just about mindfulness—it’s about playfulness and it’s going to change everything. Get ready for a transformation you never saw coming.

"Quite frankly, she changed my life with play."
"I had everything I wanted, a loving family, a successful career, and wonderful friends; but something was still missing.
I tried it all…therapy, medication, self-help books, the works. They were successful in most aspects, but somehow I still lacked joy. Then TJ shared with me her Playful Revolution.
Quite frankly, she changed my life with play. Through her work I have reconnected with my nervous system, and I am fully able to recognize the moments of play in my ordinary days. Her brilliance, kindness, and openness made my vulnerability easy, while her “homework” had me looking for more. I am forever grateful for TJ and this beautifully curated program re-learning joyful play."
