I had learnt a long time ago (subconsciously) to shut off connection to the body. My body. Apart from superficial things like being ‘frustrated’, I had no idea how I felt. I didn’t know how to connect with anger; sadness; shame. I didn’t know how to deal with big...
I work with clients all the time who want to create change. I mean, that’s the reason they find a coach! They are not happy with elements of their personal life; business; parenting; relationship and so on, and they want to invest in becoming happier, more productive, more at...
So many people feel like they need to be fixed so that their ‘problems’ can be resolved and go away. But they don’t. You don’t need fixing. In actual fact, you have all the answers, clarity, solutions and everything else that you need. You don’t need to become a...

Being a people-pleaser (saying ‘yes’ when you want to say ‘no’) is all about what you’ve learnt – it’s not who you are. I mean, it’s not like being a dog-lover – that is never going to change, right?! And let’s be honest, who would even want it to?...
It has never been clearer that connection is crucial to our wellbeing and happiness. Maybe you’ve noticed this – probably via a feeling of being more disconnected right now. Maybe you can’t see your family or your friends. Maybe you miss your team and the banter that happens when you’re all in...
