Steph and Deirdre Loughlin discuss the practice of living more authentically through self-awareness and the benefits of becoming familiar with our core values.  Deirdre encourages anyone with mental health concerns to create safety for themselves, through the support of others and how finding the therapist that suits you, with whom you feel safe, seen and heard without judgement can be life-changing. Deirdre describes her personal practices that support her in looking after her own mental health.  Steph and Deirdre share their own experiences in practising self-compassion, self-forgiveness and their unexpected experiences of self-observation.
