…Are you overwhelmed, anxious and fighting burnout? Is motivation hard to find through foggy autopilot? How are your career and relationships doing through all that? Perhaps you’re hitting a wall of self-critical exhaustion in a life that turned out very different than what you’d expected. Chances are you are living life led by too much logic, willpower and what you think you ‘should’ do. In most cases this comes from having sustained overwhelming periods in childhood or later in life where we realized no one was coming to save us. The nervous system compensated through feeling too much in some cases and too little in others.
Meanwhile, we use the same strategy of ‘pushing through,’ growing more isolated as the colour drains from life. Is this the life you want? In my 19 years of study and practice I have seen the same patterns of injury and recovery from sensitive artists to hardened combat veterans. In all cases, we discover surprisingly that the pain itself contains the cure
Working with me means answering the hero’s call to approach what overwhelms you, but this time not alone. Through a balance of compassion and challenge, lots of laughter, and curiosity towards life’s depth you will discover who you were always meant to be like 'this is who I am and this is what I want from life.' Our struggling world needs more of you.
