My dear clients, please read this.

Danielle LaPorte’s recent post: What to do after you have a breakthrough. (You’re going to shrink after you expand, so, listen closely.) Is a must read for ALL MY CLIENTS. Here’s the thing…  After a session, you’ll often feel fantastic. You’ll feel light and connected and full of clarity again. All that resistance you were feeling before the session seems…

Do you say “I should know better”?

I was chatting with one of my dear kinesiology mates. I explained I was feeling shame over a recent choice I’d made. Shame. Such an icky emotion. As Brene Brown says, “it’s at the opposite end of the spectrum to worth”, and while I spoke with my mate, there was no worth in my words. I was being hard and…

Feeling sad? Try this.

I was on the train the other morning. Feeling sad. Sad sad. The kinda sad that hurts. Makes your stomach ache. Forces tears to fall. And I sighed. I sighed and silently begged for it to be over. For the pain to pass. I said to myself ‘tomorrow will be a better day’. And then I stopped. I reasoned, Who…

“How” to find your passion.

A good friend said to me recently ‘you should write an ebook or run a workshop on finding your passion.’ To which I replied ‘Nup. I very much dislike the topic’. Which must seem ridiculous seeing I’m a life coach. But it’s true.  For some reason the idea of ‘finding your passion’ sees me putting this enormous pressure on myself to…

My latest Elephant Journal post: Are you addicted to pleasure?

  When you feel sad, anxious, depressed, any heavy emotion – what do you do? Do you run back to pleasure? I know I do. Food. Booze. Sex. Meditation. Yoga. Relationships. There are tonnes of ways we do it. But what if we don’t run back? What if we we’re ok in the pain? Like really ok. Life is a…

If you get anxiety, open this up!

In Gabby Bernstein’s workshop a few weeks ago she made the following comment ‘the presence of fear is when we are relying on our own strength’. This statement has been huge for me. Whenever I get a trigger of anxiety and fear i.e. I start worrying about something in the upcoming future based on something from my past, I return to this…

Cancer. The guts of life.

It’s a funny thing when a loved one gets diagnosed with cancer. Well, not funny, but it’s a rather strange experience. There’s a lot of waiting. A lot of uncertainty. A lot of phone calls. And a heap of fear.  I saw Gabby Bernstein speak a few weekends ago. In the audience there was a woman who had been diagnosed…

My latest Elephant Journal post: Getting into the Vortex

It’s not easy when our external world is the exact opposite of what we want. It’s hard to maintain faith, a commitment to our dreams and desires when it feels like all our prayers are going unanswered. I’ve worked with loads of clients over the years who have wanted boyfriends, babies and new jobs. And at the immediate time it feels…

Travelling Solo – the awful uncomfortableness of it.

There was a time when dining alone, checking into a hostel alone, wandering the streets alone made me feel awfully uncomfortable. Now (thankfully) there is a sense of total empowerment that comes with being ok to be alone. To feel confident and secure within this vulnerability. For me, this ok-ness creates space for me to observe and absorb. Observe. Absorb….

South of France – The ridiculousness of it.

I lived in Nice for a couple of years a few lifetimes back. I had wanted to go to Paris. I emailed my dear friend Natalie, who had lived in France to get some tips. She immediately replied – ‘Paris in summer? No. Go to Nice!’  So off I went, no visa, no job. Just a yearning heart for my…
