I Feel For You

In difficult times, it can be hard to have hope

but we get to build resilience.

Today's episode is a short, but hopefully effective one, and is for those of you who know what it is to occupy this weird space between holding grief and seeking joy. It’s in reference to recent news events but also addressing the times we live in, when news, newsfeeds and difficult stuff can feel so overwhelming that it can be hard to know what to do and how to get back to yourself so you can be most useful.

I don’t know about you but when i hear about something horrific or witness terrible things in the news, it puts me in this weird state of hyper anxiety and numbness.

It's hard to do anything at all.

So i’m sharing 5 things that help me come back to my centre when

occupying so many spaces and carrying so many feelings simultaneously. I also invite you to add your own so we can provide inspiration for others out there who are having a difficult time.

Really hope this is useful. Let’s get into it.

Today is an episode which is part July journal come pep talk come learning moment around the theme of body wisdom.

The first part of the show i’ll update you on what’s been going on lately, and the second i’ll share a piece i wrote back in april 2019 which felt relevant, and i wanted to share it with you in the hope that it resonates and encourages you to pay attention to your own body’s wisdom. Cause it has a lot to say! I’ll also be sharing how i’ve been doing that, and how you might explore that in ways that work for you.

So whether your body feels like a stranger, a friend, an enemy or a vague distant relative, i really hope this will be useful and empowering for you to reconnect with yourself, and all the wisdom that you contain so you can feel more free to be more you!

it can hurt to feel your efforts have been in vain

we might feel it after time spent in a relationship that didn’t work out

a project that didn’t go as planned

a dream that went a bit wonky

a day that we had high hopes for but it sucked

something you feel you’ve fallen off the wagon with and are afraid to return to

disappointment is a difficult emotion so this week, we’re going to get into it.

i’m sharing a bit of an update as to the inspiration for this particular episode, it’s been an eventful couple of weeks (!) which you’ll know a bit about if you listened to my last episode "Comfort for polymaths amidst a dark night of the soul 🌌(Episode 43)"

So this is kind of a part 2 to that.

We’re talking about processing difficult emotions, particularly disappointment and how you can empower yourself to move through that and get through that without bypassing. In real ways that work for you. Cause that’s the key.

I’m going to be talking a bit about anger as well, cause i feel we need to talk about it more, as well as showing up for ourselves.

I really hope this is a useful episode for you or maybe someone you care about that could use a loving hug and some encouragement.

We’ll take a little exercise later in the show with a bit of breath work + visualisation + hopefully some action on your part. No pressure to participate but hope you’re up for it!

It’s a technique to come home to yourself and reconnect with yourself any time

So here’s to growth, and the lessons disappointments give us and the opportunity for our feelings being a tool to access healing

Thanks for being here and as always i love to hear from you so if you have any thoughts or questions or comments about the show i would love to hear from you. Links are below.

Today, a micro coaching episode!

“Hi Dionne, here’s a question for you!

I have these dreams and goals that excite me, but i often find i get stuck and scared. how can i move forward and stop feeling like i’m held hostage by my fear? i want to get things done and do the things i want to do but i just feel like i’m stalling………

Yours,

Tears for Fears”

In today’s episode, i’m talking about the energy of fear vs action, what gets in the way and holds us back, and how we can use this energy of fear as a catalyst for helpful action rather than bring at the mercy of it. I’m sharing some examples from my own life, living with anxiety the last 20 years and some tools i use that you can apply to your own journey to help you reframe energy of fear and doubt.

Friends! We are going in!

“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style”

- Maya Angelou

Friends! I have a question for you!

What do you want?

So some of you know i’ve been on a bit of a quest this year, this lifetime, to be more me, to allow Ethel, my alter ego some slack and embrace expression, shamelessness and learning how to be. Sure, this is a life’s quest, but as this is episode 40 - 40?!? I thought it might be nice to pay tribute to this magic number, which feels especially magic for me this year, because in february, i turn 40! Yes! I know! Cue Jadakiss we gon make it darling, cause it’s real! I’m bopping like it’s 1997...

I’m so excited about it to be honest, i mean, the older i get, the more me i feel. I mean, i have always been me, but i am truly feeling a difference as i begin to leave my 30s behind, and embrace a new era. Sure it’s just a number, imaginary, right? birthdays are simply anniversaries of a moment, right? and every moment matters!

But i thought it might be fun to share some of the goals i’ve been working towards as i embrace my 40th year on this planet.. And i’m sharing this with you in the hope that you can use my milestone, albeit imaginary cause you know, i hope my milestone helps you to recognise your own. to consider the potential you have in every single day you’re up in here up in here - you know?

To let yourself go for what you want, to move towards it bit by bit, little by little. I’ll also break some of stuff down for you later in the show with a little activity to start to tackle how you might be able to apply this idea of goals to your own situation and begin to break things down so they can be for real life, not pretend.

I’m interested in you showing up for your goals. And getting over the hurdles so you can start doing that. So i’ll be sharing ideas about how you can do that.

When i was 16, i lost my best friend, Melissa.

And 23 years on, i’m reflecting on the non-linear process that is grief, healing and life.

I hope this helps someone feel more free. More hope.

And if you’re navigating the grief journey, i pulled together some resources i made that might have some tools to help you in your process. Check my show notes for more.

Most of all, i hope you feel held and reminded, whatever stage you’re at, you’re not alone. there is help and support out there for you, so please reach out, you are deserving of care, love and support.

And thank you for listening. I appreciate your attention so much. And if this episode has helped or inspired you in any way, i’d appreciate it so much if you could share it with someone you care about who might dig it too.

Darlings,

in challenging times, it's so vital that we show up for ourselves so we can meet the world from as grounded a place as possible, and be most useful to our communities.If you are experiencing sadness or any related feel, i hope you can be reminded that although the feeling is most certainly real, it doesn't define us, nor is it a static thing. Hence why people tend to deal with grief in different ways.It´s ok to step back. To be more tender. To not get it all done. To do what you need to do to feel better.One thing i would add though, is that if you feel ready, try to find a way to move - it might be a physical movement, or offering yourself space to welcome in a new energy. It doesn't mean you're not still grieving or sad, or rejecting one feeling for another. It means you're opening up and being receptive to new ones. Shifting your state to something that's hopefully more helpful. I hope that you are able to navigate things in ways that you feel supported. For me, upping my practice of self care is really important. So, i'm offering some suggestions of what you can do right now to take care of you! Ready?

Here are 15 self care ideas to shift your state!

….and

if you enjoy this episode, i’d love it if you could share it with someone you care about and, if you feel generous, give me a review in Apple Podcasts! - it really helps other like-minded good people find the show and means the world to me to get a gauge on what you think, so i can make more content that is hopefully as helpful as possible for people.

Links + more goodies in the shownotes!
