About Blaze Schwaller
Intuitive Life Coach • Emotional Alchemist • Creator of the Anchored & Alive Method
🌿 You’re not here by accident.
You’re here because something inside you is stirring. A quiet voice that whispers:
“I can’t keep living like this. Something needs to shift.”
Maybe you’re overwhelmed.
Maybe you’ve been holding too much for too long.
Maybe you’re tired of being the strong one, the sensitive one, the one who feels everything so deeply.
I understand that voice.
I’ve lived with that ache, that yearning... that exhaustion.
And I want you to know this:
You’re not too much. You’re not broken. And you’re not alone.
I’m Blaze Schwaller. Intuitive life coach, emotional alchemist, and the creator of the Anchored & Alive Method, a framework that helps sensitive, deep-feeling people reclaim their emotional power, build self-trust, and create lives that actually feel like home.
🌿 What I Really Do
I help sensitive, overwhelmed humans understand their emotions, trust their inner wisdom, and make grounded choices, even in chaotic, demanding lives.
Through my podcast, course, and grounding practices, I teach people how to:
Decode what their emotions are actually trying to say
Regulate overwhelm without suppressing themselves
Break lifelong “loops” of people-pleasing and self-abandonment
Build emotional resilience with compassion, not pressure
Align daily decisions with their values, strengths, and nervous system
Feel anchored in who they are, no matter what life throws at them
I don’t teach perfection.
I teach inner steadiness. The kind that gently shifts your entire life.
🌿 From Tattoo Artist to Emotional Guide: My Unlikely Path
Before I was a coach, I was a tattoo artist. A storyteller with ink.
Tattooing taught me how to hear people’s deeper truths, even when they didn’t know how to say them. It taught me how to hold space for transformation, grief, identity shifts, and meaning-making. Thousands of clients sat with me during some of the most powerful moments of their lives.
And then, suddenly, it ended.
🌿 The Collapse That Changed Everything
Running my tattoo studio had stretched me beyond my limits. I was juggling everything: the business, the art, the emotional support, the long hours... and ignoring every signal my body sent.
One morning, after a simple Zumba class, I lost sensation in both arms and collapsed in a locker room.
That terrifying moment was my wake-up call.
My tendons were damaged beyond repair.
My tattoo career ended overnight.
My identity fractured.
My body forced me to stop in the most unmistakable way.
What followed was a year of grieving. Not just my career, but my entire understanding of who I thought I needed to be.
I had spent my life supporting others at the cost of myself.
I didn’t know how to rest.
I didn’t know how to listen inwardly.
I didn’t know how to trust my own needs.
That collapse became my turning point, and the birthplace of my life’s work.
🌿 Learning to Live From the Inside Out
During that year of rebuilding my health, I discovered what no one had ever taught me:
Your emotions aren’t obstacles. They’re information.
They’re guidance.
They’re the key to your healing.
I learned how to map emotional “loops,” how to hear the messages in overwhelm, and how to regulate my nervous system without shutting down or pushing myself into burnout.
Slowly, I rebuilt my life from the inside out. Gently, compassionately, and intentionally.
And as I found my footing, I realized:
If I could learn this, anyone could.
And no one should have to suffer the way I had.
That realization pulled me into my next calling: Coaching.
🌿 Why I Do This Work
Because sensitive people are not weak. They are powerful.
They just need tools, space, and a clear way forward.
The people who find me are often:
Highly sensitive
Empathetic
Overworked
Emotionally exhausted
Expected to hold everything together
Unsure how to honor their needs without letting someone down
They don’t need platitudes.
They don’t need pressure.
They don’t need to “try harder.”
They need someone who sees their depth and knows how to translate it.
Someone who understands the emotional landscape intimately.
Someone who can teach them to trust themselves again.
I do this work because I’ve lived both sides. The collapse and the rebuilding. And I know that steady, compassionate support can be the difference between drowning and finally breathing again.
🌿 The Anchored & Alive Method
A practical, compassionate system for emotional empowerment, self-trust, and grounded decision-making.
The method helps you:
Identify emotional “loops” before they take over
Understand what your feelings are asking for
Build your own regulation toolbox
Make aligned choices based on your values
Support yourself through transitions with clarity and grace
Feel more like yourself than you have in years
Clients often experience their breakthrough moment around weeks four or five. It's a sudden realization of:
“Wait… I don’t have to do it that way anymore!”
Like the nurse who finally held a boundary with a coworker; calmly, confidently, and without guilt for the first time in her life.
The shift is real.
It’s practical.
It’s sustainable.
And it’s deeply empowering.
🌿 Who I Serve
The Anchored & Alive ecosystem supports women (and women-leaning humans) who are:
Sensitive
Deep feelers
Overloaded by caregiving or emotional labor
Navigating burnout
Struggling with boundaries
Craving relief, clarity, and a path forward
If you’ve ever felt “too much,” exhausted, or quietly unraveling…
You’re in the right place.
