Do you find yourself always trying to manage and control parts of yourself through fear of them coming out and then being judged and rejected?

Do you have a belief that you are bad and unlovable and then spend every waking hour trying to prove your 'goodness' and lovability?

Well that was me for 30 years and it led me down a dark path of isolation, loneliness and unfulfillment!

What I discovered over these last 6 years was that these parts 0f me that I was trying to hide from the world (which then come out in unhealthy ways) just wanted my acceptance and love, instead of everyone else's that I was trying to gain by presenting a socially acceptable version of myself.

Once I started to invest in myself and work with people that were able to offer me the safety I needed to open up, I began recognising that I CAN show up in my wholeness and express myself authentically and as a result of that, I no longer needed to waste so much energy trying to hide parts of myself and instead could use my energy to have fun, invest in those people closest to me, what I want to create in the world and THAT is what has brought people into my life that are open minded, kind and are also on their own inner journey!

As cliché as it sounds your vibe really does attract your tribe.

Much love,

throughout my 20's I wasted so much time 'living for the weekend' and in this episode I reflect on what was really going on for me and what I really wanted in my life.

I share how I feel on a day to day basis as well as how I am experiencing life now compared to in my 20's.
