Following the recent reconciliation of a friend and her mother after years of estrangement, I discuss how healing our wounds and traumas frees up not only more love and joy in life, but also latent creativity that has been clouded by the darkness and shadow of the wound.  A thoughtful, uplifting episode on the positive power of healing. 

After recovering from serious illness this Summer, I had realisations that my true values are way off the ones I would usually reel off when asked. It's led to reflective changes on how I approach work.  A quick one on values. 

Something that came to my attention on a recent men's retreat was when how often the myself and the other men were using 'you' and 'we' when speaking about themselves. When another man was corrected and asked to speak in 'I' statements, it started a huge journey for me to reclaim my own power and take more responsibility for my outlook and actions in life. A simple but powerful linguistic reframe that all can benefit from. 

After a tumultuous Summer spent healing from unexpected heart disease and surgery, I recount my story of my sickness and recovery and my reflections on being on the brink of death - and surviving!

Can you admit to your wounding? Can you own acknowledge them? Can you own them? In this podcast I discuss how I went from having zero awareness of my wounding, thinking I had a loving upbringing and minimal trauma, to becoming aware of how wounded I was and how I started to heal these wounds. 

Much love
