People sometimes think therapy is for when life is falling apart, but that isnโ€™t what I see.

I see people trying to hold everything together carrying responsibilities no one else is aware of. I see people navigating grief, relationship challenges, career changes, anxiety, self doubt, and wanting a life that is aligned with their desires and the truest version of themselves.

Some people come because theyโ€™re hurting, and others come because they know life could feel different, even if they canโ€™t quite explain how.

Often what theyโ€™re looking for is a safe place to be heard, supported, and not judged โค๏ธ

While every personโ€™s journey is different, there are some changes that I notice again and again.

People start to understand themselves with greater compassion, and this extends out towards others. They recognise patterns in thoughts and behaviours they couldnโ€™t previously see, start building healthier relationships within themselves and with others, and become more present, self aware, and less reactive.

People often leave each session with more clarity, a way forward, greater feelings of self worth, a new confidence in themselves that continues to grow, and a more loving/accepting view of themselves and the world around them.

What I see is people reconnecting with who they are, and who they want to be underneath all the noise.

My question to you is: what might change if you gave yourself permission to be supported or held for once?

7 unexpected ways being a therapist and coach has changed me ๐Ÿฆ‹

After over a decade of sitting with people through some of their biggest experiences, challenges and feelings, Iโ€™ve noticed that this work has slowly changed me over time too.

My social battery has changed. Spending my days in deep one on one one conversations means I have less energy for intense conversations, large groups and long social events than I used to.

Iโ€™ve stopped feeling like I need to be constantly available. I canโ€™t do as many phone calls and messages as I used to, and Iโ€™m learning that not everything needs an immediate response. (This is still one Iโ€™m working on!)

Iโ€™ve become more protective of my energy. I no longer want to be the go to crisis person (a role I used to relish.) Caring for others has taught me that caring for my own capacity is essential if I want to continue living well.

I crave more alone time - after spending my days being deeply present with people, quiet time has become an important way for me to reconnect with myself.

Quality has become more important than quantity. I spend less time with people than I once did, but those relationships feel richer and more meaningful.

Spontaneity has become something I really value. After weeks of scheduled sessions, there is something special about a last minute or unexpected catch up.

And lastly, having an empty calendar has become a luxury. In my twenties, I loved having every day full. Now, one of the best feelings is opening my calendar and seeing space ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

These changes didnโ€™t happen all at once. They emerged after years of supporting people through their own growth, healing, challenges and transformation.

As I support clients to become more of who they are, my work has supported me to become more of who I am too. ๐Ÿค

3 signs youโ€™re outgrowing an old version of yourself:

1. You feel like youโ€™re standing at a crossroads.

2. Youโ€™re questioning who and what belongs in your life.

3. Youโ€™re carrying a quiet sense of grief.

Can you relate to some of these?

People donโ€™t always associate growth with grief and loss, but the two are often intertwined.

If any or all of these signs resonated with you, it doesnโ€™t necessarily mean that things are going wrong. They may actually be a sign that youโ€™re growing. ๐ŸŒฑ

If youโ€™re in a season at the moment where youโ€™re needing a little extra love, Iโ€™m currently giving away a Reconnect with Yourself experience valued at over $1,300.

The experience includes a night away, a day retreat, coaching, massage, energy healing, and a $300 spending voucher. โœจ๐Ÿ’ž๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

You can find all the details in the giveaway post pinned to the top of my profile.

What makes you feel the most connected to yourself? โ™พ๏ธ

I can think of a few things that make me feel the most connected to who I am - being surrounded by what I love: the land, my family, nights where the music is playing while weโ€™re cooking or dancing (and singing!), having at least one good book by my bedside table, eating delicious food and meditating, to name a few.

And then there are clothes. Clothes, beautiful clothes! โœจ๐Ÿ˜

You know that feeling where you put something on and you just feel good, like a second skin almost? Those pieces that as you put on, you almost feel more you if that was possible. It could be your dadโ€™s holey jumper, or a ripped tee that youโ€™ve had for years and canโ€™t part with. I love that feeling. โ˜บ๏ธ

And what I love about this photo is that when I look at it, I see the me-est me. How I feel on the inside is on the outside. It captures parts of me that I canโ€™t quite express in words.

Sometimes itโ€™s something as simple as a white tee, ripped jeans, hoops and a velvet jacket to remind me of who I am. โœŒ๐Ÿผ๐ŸŒŠโœจ๐Ÿงš๐Ÿผ

I wonder what all the pieces are that make you feel the most you. ๐Ÿ’ญ

When friends that love you take your picture. ๐Ÿค

Last year I was inspired to do something a bit different and worked on a wee creative project BTS with the help of my friend .leaf ๐Ÿƒ

This is one of the photos she took. Itโ€™s quite different to see yourself through the eyes and lens of someone else. You canโ€™t tell from this photo but man the shoot was an absolute hoot ๐Ÿ˜‚ - from the quick rising of the initial nerves (being fully seen is so VULNERABLE!!) to breaking out in hives from the grass, and falling over from laughing so hard - I highly rate doing this with a friend you love and trust. Even just for the fun of it.

Thank you Lauren for always pushing me in the best way possible ๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ’› x
