Burnout is Not a badge of honor.

Packed with science-backed insights, raw personal stories, somatic healing wisdom, and magnetic truth-telling, Becoming HER explores:

Why modern expectations are burning you out--and how you can break free. Healing your relationship with men and the power of embracing your feminine energy. How polarity in your relationships creates deep intimacy and satisfaction. The secrets to aligning your inner and outer worlds for lasting success and happiness.

If you've ever whispered to yourself, There has to be another way..., this is it.

Becoming HER is the first book to say what you've been thinking for years and cracks open the conversation no one else is willing to have. Monica breaks down the nuances of feminine energy in a way that makes it real, grounded, and tangible.
